Great first blog Garth.
Very keen to follow you along on all of this. So I think you will be seeing my face at the majority of events that you have selected to play in..... apart from Adelaide and Geelong :)

I take it you will not be playing the JHDS Teams Event on the Monday 29th then?

The 2 events at Crown look great too.

Ill be keeping a close eye on your progress.


Count me in for the hand history too Garth!

Looks good Garth.

I have bubbles for the AM ME 2 years running but as a bonus picked up opening events and Bounty event tickets.

Really looking forward to cracking a ME Sat this year.


Good luck on your quest.

Great blog Garth.

Have to admire the honesty.

You could say the AQ was a poor move but I think in that spot the BB is only calling behind with exactly KK or AA, anything else is a fold. So it's not the worst play in the world to isolate. I'm either folding or reshoving. Calling just opens the door for aa reshove behind if they sense you have called just so you can fold to a reshove. 3rd place was only 200 cash.

The J10 beat is horrible but as you say you want these players to get it in really bad, it just obviously hurts alot more when they suck out.

And rest assured people always cheer the underdog and hope for a suck out against someone they are envious and or jealous of.

I'd be more upset with the 7th place finish with 5 tickets guaranteed myself.

Keep up the grind.

G'day Garth ,
Good read .
Should be called Nightmare on Turn Street . I often get the feeling in hands like that. That they are going to hit their card But normally on the river. Did you get a gut feeling it was coming ?
