EMOP Lisbon and hanging out with Devilfish

I got back from Lisbon in the early hours of this morning. It took 10 hours to get from portugal to England which is just a joke. I can't really complain about the trip though. I one a package online for 20euros and cashed in the tournament for 2.3k euros, which about $3k. The tournament played pretty soft as expected but on my first day I had a pretty tough table with some online mtt guys and devilfish to my left. I thought I managing to cash was an outstanding effort really as I was card dead for most of the tournament and limited spots to steal. I always managed to do enough to be around the average stack or just below.

I think the most memorable thing about the trip was hanging out with Devilfish. At the table apart from 1 other guy we were the english guys at the table. we spent the best part of day 1 chatting which helped past the hours when i was card dead. he told me so many funny stories about Phil ivey, phil Hellmuth and the mouth who he said is a bit of nit when its comes to nights out. He gave me his phone to show me some jokes and have a look at some pics. One pic was fergie from the blackeyed peas sitting on his lap taking a pic of them together!....i may never was hands after touching the same phone as her.lol. Its was also cool that he wanted to eat dinner with me as well at the break which i thought was really cool.

winning a Battle of planets ticket

Last week I started playing the $16 18mans again. I got off to a really good start and managed to get on the BOD leaderboard. I won $110 for 6th which was a nice added bonus and a chance to win 12k when I the chance to play the BOD tourney. At the moment I mixing the $6 and the $16's when playing my sessions which are obv are bigger swings. I trying to to ignore the bad sessions because this downswings are to be expected. All I can do is play correctly and keep forcused.

Last night I was watching the EPT Berlin robbery which got me thinking about when I visit Lisbon. Obv the money is no where near the same but surely the security is going to be alot tighter now. At poker tournies the security is so soft I wonder how no one has tried it before. When I went to watch the WSOPE in London there £850k on on platform with one unarmed security guard next to it.lol.

Haven't really got much more to say but thought I should try and keep this as update as possible.
