Back in the overdraft and on the piss.

Went to London yesterday with Tony to sign the contract on the house. It all looks pretty standard but the 6 week deposit i was made to pay along with the first months rent put a big hole in my finances, £1200 ouch!! So as a result i'm back in the overdraft and the worst thing is i haven't got the money in poker right now to cover this, i cashed out $420 from party but wish i could take more out cause i hate being overdrawn.
On the social side of life i'm really enjoying my last few days in Reading. A few of the guys have gone home but most of the hardcore drinkers are still about which has resulted in some heavy heavy nights of alcohol consumption. Robin's 22nd last Thursday was awesome, the 'random rampage' pub crawl was a great idea (with various bars and time for consumption) being drawn at random. It was very fun and the missions were certainly the highlight of the night, eric running to every pub, alp falling into the old man pub face first and myself having to go commando were just 3 of a long list of hilarios activities. Monday and Tuesday were also top nights with the usual 'who can drink the most' argument sparking off a stupid amount of alcohol consumption. Mark Garbett i will not have a threesome with you, PERVERT!! Think i'm gonna skip the union tonight and just enjoy the final fling on Thursday, comedy club and cheap drink could lead to some emotional goodbye's.
As far as poker goes came very close to a big pay day on friday on two separate occasions. 17th in the super friday and 10th in the 18K gtd on party were again evidence of me getting close but not getting the job done. In the Super friday i ran KK into AA for the chip lead and in the 18K i lost AK v AK all in pre with 26 left (no he was not sooooooted). So not much i could do there but i was happy with my play in both tournies but disappointed in the end results.
Cash has been going well but quite slow, making a steady profit at 0.5/1 and just hope i can get back to 1/2 by the start of August.
Gonna put some hours in tonight then i'll play gain on Friday, might blog after that. Also was having a look at my mate jambon's blog and he said that his two mates lost $25K playing blackjack the other night in vegas. A few of them are over their for the wsop and it sounds like this drunken night may have ruined the trip: http://supertryagain.blogspot.com/ not supposed to laugh but it sounds a little funny.
Bankroll: $5,250
