Sorry to those of you who keep checking the site. I have been away for over a month now and have yet to post. The truth is I have not had much chance to play, although I have had a few small sessions.
In New York i fired up party poker at the airport but in the US you can connect, but the new laws mean you cant actually sit on the tables even if your account is registered in the UK - annoying as i had 2 hours to kill.
In Fiji the internet was’nt that readily available, as you can imagine, and what they did have was far too slow.
In New Zealand I actually managed a couple of 1 hour sessions in Auckland casino, where they have a decent amount of cash game tables. I ended up $150 to the good. After this I either didnt have the time, or cheap enough connection to play too much. At the moment I’m in Christchurch and I have actually found a really good internet cafe near the main square ($3 per hr!).I went for a little sesh yesterday with a guy I met in the hostel who liked a bit of poker and won a little $70. Today I’m back in the cafe playing again on my own as both my mate Duncan and Mike from the hostel are off doing other stuff (swimming with dolphins and flying to South America respectively). A cheeky $50 up currently, although i mite pack up soon and take a stroll the the casino here in Christchurch. I dont know if they have cash games, but its worth a look for a change of scenery.
Although its not crazy amounts in terms of money won, or time put in playing, I’m running well for sure. Apart from at Auckland casino that is, where you’d have to be a total muppet to lose to the crazy tourists at my table! This travelling/poker is pretty cool (when you get chance to play).
Bankroll - $1400 odd (i forgot to check) after I withdrew $800 to boost the travel monies after Fiji.
