 I'm off to play my Poker Million heat today.

 The format has totally changed.

 The buy-in is $30k and the winner of the 8-handed heat gets $90k and a place in the final. The runner-up gets a place in the 2nd chance heat which takes place in October. That will be a normal structure heat and the winner of that will go to the final.

 There will be six heat winners, the runner-up heat winner and a late "parachute" online qualifier in the final, which will be WINNER TAKES ALL.

 First prize is $1m.

 Today's heat is Myself, Ram Vaswani, Barny Boatman, Gavin Smith, Eric Cajelais, Andrew Feldman, Nick Schulman and Darren Elias (who I played in the Poker Lounge).

 It might take eight hours and it starts at 10.30ish this morning. Wish me luck:

Just kicking around an idea atm who fancies some drinks/night out after the BBP Academy on 31st July?

Bink.

Greetings everyone! This is just a quick update on the recent problem with iPoker when the system froze and crashed last week. As you may know, this meant people who were playing at the time didn't receive their winnings. However, you'll be happy to know that the problem has now been fixed and iPoker has paid out the people that won something before the system went down. Sincerest apologies for any inconvenience caused. If you need help or would like some more information on this please email the guys at support@blackbeltpoker.com

GOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGO Jamie, Owen, Warren Tristan and Chaz if he's still in. LETS MAKE DAY 4!!!!!!!!!!!!!

July Events

Few nice choices out there and am pretty sure I am going to head up to Sheffield for my 3rd attempt at binking a GUKPT Summer Series M/E

Hello everyone,

 Just thought I'd post you a quick Vegas update. Maybe we could make this an official Vegas thread and everyone could post their week's schedules.

 Arrived on Thursday and I've been running around doing shopping, getting a US cellphone and trying to catch up with all emails and messages before I clear my mind for the week ahead.

 Here's my WSOP schedule for this week:

  Sunday: $1,000 NLH Pavillion Yellow 156 Seat 9 (in case anybody fancies stopping by to say hi or abuse me).
 
 Sunday 5pm $1500 PLO8 if busted from the NLH.
 
 Monday $1500 NLH
 
 Tuesday $5000 NLH Shootout (one of my favourites of the whole year)
 
 Wednesday  $1500 NLH
 
 Thursday $1500 PLH
 
 Friday $1500 NLH
 
 Sunday $1000 NLH


 Obviously if I fluke it into the odd day two I'll have to amend my plans. I may go all "high roller" and play two at once sometimes.

 Lazy Phil Laak will not be playing too many events this week. He's sitting in the $10/$20 at Bellagio on Wednesday at noon and attempting to stay there for eighty hours. 

 I'll be waiting until he's really tired and popping down to give him a spin from time to time.

 Next week is slightly quieter.
