Im well on my way to getting the $100 bonus this month before going to ireland as long as i dont tilt and have to stay away from the tables or my internet connection breaks all will be well. Recently ive been trying to get some basic knowlege of other poker games i have always dabbed in omaha but never omaha hi low, stud or razz. Ive put in a few hours in these games in micro limits and i think i will put in a few sessions of HORSE for my enjoyment and education.

Ive opened up a betfair poker acount for my new secondary site replacing ft as im yet to hear if i have RB and i get the 1st deposit bonus (i already had a betting acount) i probably wont be playing there till next month.

One thing that is bothering me is the way i played this hand, the fact that this situation has come up before been discussed on the DUPS forum and i didnt implicate what i learnt last time. The villans stats are 17 11 over 600 hands. Looking at the forum the hand is idential in the way i played it even the villans stats are similar. http://www.dur.ac.uk/poker.society/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1120
