Just finished playing a Ladbrokesbeat the poker manager tournament and came in first place – my first win against 400 other players. Met the poker manager along the way (if you take him out you win an extra $100, and for those who find my site after googling who is the ladbrokes poker manager?!? – there’s several managers, but all names begin with MGR), who was muffed royally. His AA was beat by J3 and left him with 5k chips – not even enough for the small blind. So when the blind hit, the J3 muffer went back all in with his 200k to try and take him out and win the $100, of course the small stack of the table went all in with his 10k to try and secure the prize with 37 suited. And won with a flush on the river. I was glad though, the other muffpot did not deserve to win. I was sitting OK with around 50k or so by that point and didn’t want to risk my stack to try and beat the manager, even though I was sitting below average.

By the time it came to heads up I was sitting at 200k, and the chip leader had a healthy 1.2mil. Not a bad tournaround, for a £150 win. Got a uni exam at 2pm tomorrow, glad i decided not to take the night off poker, just hope I have as much luck in my exams as I seem to have in poker.
