14900 after the first day. I was very very card dead today, and hopefully I get some hands during O8 and LHE tomorrow so I can get some real chips. I certainly held my own during the stud rounds, and hardly ever scooped pots. The biggest pots I won were near the end of the day when I tripled up with a rivered full house in O8 and then won a big pot with a 76 low in razz against someone who thought I paired up.

I talked to Jennifer Harman the last hour or so of the day, as she was on my left, and she's really really nice. Makes me rethink a lot of things I think about the big name players.

Take care all.

Allo allo, it's gobbo reporting from jolly old England. I decided today I have too much money (It's a joke) and I should give $5k to some poor shmuck playing the $5k horse tomorrow at the WSOP Europe. This will be my first bracelet event, and the first one outside of Vegas. If I win this, my life will change a hell of a lot, so wish me luck. I'm playing all 3 events, and you can follow most of the action at pokernews. Hopefully I won't be back until tomorrow night, but we'll certainly see. The structure for this tournament is amazing.

London is expensive as hell, and if I don't pull a winning trip that would suck. Barcelona went poorly, as I played very badly in the main event and didn't run good enough to win either of the smaller events I played there. Congrats to Adam Junglen and Greg Dyer who took 6th and 3rd respectively though. They're both sick good.

Wish me luck tomorrow everyone.
