July update and details for footy season preview.

Sports Betting: £42.20. Poker: -£186.27. Total: -£144.07

Made a stupid mistake on the wsop main event field size when not taking an arb, but just laying one half of it on betfair. Which needless to say cost me badly.

Almost all the poker loss was down to playing the forum game at DTD Nottingham, very nice place, would like to go back there again, may get an account there and try to qualify for a big event. Speaking of which, I am taking a real break from online poker (besides the pca fpp qualifiers) My balance on stars is zero, and it's going to stay like that for a while I think until I get some enthusiasm back.

I got through to round 6 (12,000 fpp) of the PCA, another 4 more wins, and the Bahamas here I come. Well, you can dream can't you :D I note all of the remaining rounds are on 28th August, and like the previous ones approximately 1 in 3 advances each time. I really like that structure, what I am not so keen about is the fact that all bar the final one (321,000 fpps) are turbos with only 1000 starting stack, leaving very little room for play. (Probably a good thing I hear you say ;) )Am I hoping for too much to ask for the poker gods to be with me on just one single day this month?

I've also had another go at qualifying for round 6 again to see if I can build an fpp stack.

Going to do the (eagerly awaited) pre season footy preview on Wednesday, anyone who has followed it the last couple of years should be nicely in profit with almost every selection coming in the top 3, yes, except Arsenal :(
