Rich and Steve hit form again

On the second of the Upminster poker rings texas hold'em evenings (11/11/2005) the two players emerging as the most consistent 'finalists' prevailed once more. Both Richard Thomas and Steve Watts shared the buy in's in the two games played, although strong showings from Dale Bennett in both games also was commendable. I showed strongly in the second game but went an 'all in' to far (with JK-JK) and missed out on being in the final pair.

Thanks to Dale Bennett for buying a supurb poker table top with a nice surface, drink and chip holders built in, this added to the enjoyment and feel of the game. The increased food and beer allocation meant that nobody was needing a take away at 11pm.

It was decided to run the poker games every 6 weeks in the future as once a month was proving difficult to schedule with everyone having very busy diaries. Thus our next poker evening with be first week of January 2006. Another decision was to log the significant hands to place on this blog for future reference.
