I hosted the Pot Limit Omaha event on Saturday and whilst there was only a small field it was still a tough game and I am glad to say that I came through in the end to win the tournament.  I was messing around with a screen recorder during this game and I have uploaded the last couple of hands onto YouTube and posted to my video blog. (http://toplvideo.blogspot.com/) . The video is also here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q2stob4GT7k

On Sunday I tried to qualify for the Pacific Poker $75k event and I entered an initial $3 sub satellite which I won but then when it came to the main satellite I was out in 30 place from 80 players. It was a bit dissapointing as this was one of those games where I just didn’t pick up any sort of hand but because of the structure of the tournament (semi turbo!) I had to start making moves but I kept running into hands. After that I decided to play the turbo sat at $26 and I went out early here when my 66 hit a flop of 2 6 Q and as I was getting on the short side I pushed and typically I was against the guy with QQ!!
