Poker With The Sweep: November 2008

http://pokerwiththesweep.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html

Poker With The Sweep. Monday, November 17, 2008. Do Poker Players Tell Lies? Does The Bear Shit In The Woods? There's a new foreign player at the Vic who has become quite a regular (I'm not going to write his nationality to spare any embarrassment he might feel at the following anecdote). You're a face, just like some of these other long time players who seem to be showing you some respect and letting you into their secret world. But even four sheets to the wind Declan is no idiot and in fact his wild an...

Poker With The Sweep: April 2009

http://pokerwiththesweep.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html

Poker With The Sweep. Wednesday, April 8, 2009. What Would Fred Do? I played a crazy pot in the 2-5 NLHE game at the Vic the other night. Effective stacks £1,600. Me UTG with KK - I make it £25. Two callers including Tore (sp? He's Norwegian - a very nice guy and guess what? He is a super-LAG. Has anyone out there ever met a Scandinavian player who was weak-tight? I know I haven't) who is the big blind. Flop 9 6 4, two clubs. As I'm thinking about it, Tore even names my hand -". Which is always unnerving.

Poker With The Sweep: September 2009

http://pokerwiththesweep.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html

Poker With The Sweep. Saturday, September 26, 2009. Recently I've been lucky enough to get a gig spotting hands for the final table shows that PokerStars have been making for their WCOOP coverage (check out www.pokerstars.tv). In case you don't understand that, I choose which hands get shown in the highlights show. It goes without saying that I have watched some of the world's best online MTTers - players like SCTrojans, djk123, ElkY, BeL0WaB0VE, westmenloAA, Hoss TBF, Jovial Gent and many others. It's l...

Poker With The Sweep: July 2009

http://pokerwiththesweep.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html

Poker With The Sweep. Friday, July 24, 2009. It's Good To Be Back. I played three events at this year's WSOP and got absolutely nowhere. Surprise, surprise I hear you say. What was really annoying was that I got really ill and ended up lying in bed in my hotel room for the last two and a half days, so I didn't even get a chance to win back the tournament buy-ins in the cash games. The $2,500 Mixed event turned out to be torture, mainly because that's when I started coming down with what may well have bee...

Poker With The Sweep: Happy New Year

http://pokerwiththesweep.blogspot.com/2009/12/happy-new-year.html

Poker With The Sweep. Thursday, December 31, 2009. Well, it's a New Year and I've just added up my figures for 2009. Did I get the absolute lot? Did I bollocks. I lost a little over 4 grand over the course of the year. Marvellous. That is actually the first losing year I've had at poker since 1998. Man that really sucks. I hate losing! Oh well, what diff, eh? As long as you're still in action you always have a chance to get out of it. I said, " My name is no longer on the 5-10 list, but you never called ...

Poker With The Sweep: May 2009

http://pokerwiththesweep.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html

Poker With The Sweep. Friday, May 29, 2009. How Can A Poor Man Stand Such Times And Live? We all know these are desperate times, but it was really brought home to me the other night at the Vic when I found myself in a rather moribund 5-10 PLO game. Six of us were playing (alright, only two were playing, the rest of us were passing until we flopped top set, nut flush draw and the wrap all at once - hey it’s live poker and the Vic, you know how it is, right? The thing is though, Dave Winston is a tight, so...

Poker With The Sweep: February 2009

http://pokerwiththesweep.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html

Poker With The Sweep. Saturday, February 7, 2009. It Could Be Worse. Tom Gibson accused me of being a lazy bastard the other day, so I figure it must be time for another missive from the front line, aka the 5-10 PLO game at the Vic. Hugh Buchanon is a fixture at the Vic card room these days, mostly doing his brai- er, playing, in the 5-10 PLO game. As anyone who has come across him knows, he is a well-spoken black gentleman who spends most of his time complaining about his bad luck. Well a huge pot devel...
