36 Days to go till NPPL's VSOP



Well its coming closer to my next big tournament and I'm starting to get into the right mind set. I really want to win this event and get the . It will put my foot down within the league and show im not just another "pub poker player" Ideally i would love to win that is my aim but at the end of the day i would be happy to get in the money.

This event has had alot of hype over the past couple of months with sattlites running about 3-5 times a week and there is already quite a bit of money within the prize pool. It is a two day event witch will give me a big advantage over the other players. The two day event would be new to most of the field and not knowing how to handle that will give me a edge.

I'm in study mode at the moment reading everything i can and also play a bit of small stakes pokerstars. Well lets face it small stakes poker online is like a pub poker event anyway LOL Within a week or two i plan on going to a couple of NPPL nights and get familiar with how players play. Its been quite awhile since i have stepped foot on NPPL soil but i will be attending very soon.

So i will keep you updates with my preparation while leading up to the event.
Hope all is well and i see you on the felt shortly ;)

Been Broken Down But Slowly Building Back Up



Hello Followers and people that randomly stopped by to check it out,

I take it you have an idea of what the title is all about.. My last live experience about 2 months ago was in a cash game at crown and was dealt KK so i decided to raise around $22 and i had a caller. Flop came Q,2,2
she checked and i shoved whatever it was i had left and got a call to see that this (excuse my language) fuck wit had J2. since then i lost my faith with poker and still to this day feeling the burn of that hand. But i have been playing more online lately more than usual and im getting my faith and confidence back and have decided in the next month i will venture out to NPPL cash games to get an idea of what some of my opponents will be like for the VSOP at the end of next month. I have brought a few books to study up and make sure im a force to be reckoned with. I'm clearly after a strong finish at the national pub pokers VSOP it will be the biggest event for me since the Melbourne champs a few years back.Sadly I don't play many big event as I would like but when I get a chance i like to do everything i can to do 110%.
It would be awesome if you all would come out and cheer me on i know a couple of friends and family will be out that day to lend some support.

So ill be building myself back up ready to jump into the VSOP with my pokergear.com.au merch and take on the battle ...
