The upminster poker rings monthly game took place at Tony Cossey's flat on Friday 24/02/2006, the evening started at 8pm and after 3 marathon games ended at 03:45am. The regular players were joined by Wayne White a part time poker professional, the claim to fame for Wayne is his 2005 ranking, which currently makes him 830th in Europe, no mean feat. The experience and advice wayne provided our group will enhance future games as now we have adopted amended techniques for dealing and calling our bets, which match the European Poker tour standards, if only our play could match the standards set there :-)
Wayne White won both the initial games of Texas holdem (NO SHOCK THERE), partnered in the final matchup's by Stuart McClemments & Steve Watts respectively. In the third and final game Wayne went out early after misjudging an ALL-IN. The final three players, Richard Thomas, Steve Watts and myself (Tony Cossey) fought for an extended period before a river card spoilt my night and gave us a match up of Steve Versus Richard, which has been a popular final pairing since our regular game started. These final two players played well and ended the evening on a spectacular showdown won by Steve. All-in-all another enjoyable evening was had by everyone, it may be sensible to move our fixture to Saturday as everyone was clearing showing fatigue after the late finish and working all day, this will be reviewed before the next game.
