Full tilt V's Party

I've now been playing on full tilt poker for a few months and am pleased to say that i had my first mini score on the site a few days ago. I took $3.8K for 6th place in a $162 comp but was pretty fucked off with it as i had the chiplead with 8 left; then i just kept losing showdowns and eventually ran QQ into AA and went busto. Was pretty happy with my decision making throughout the tourney and am pleased to have a positive ROI on the site after a slow start and a terrible FTOPS.
The problem with starting to play on a new site is that you can't simply presume that you can play exactly the same way and make the same positive returns, a lesson i have now learnt. I'm not saying that you shouldn't keep the same general plan but i've just simply had to make a few changes to combat the contrasting style of the opposition. I'm not going to go into great detail on this one but one thing i will say that in general the standard on full tilt is a lot higher especially as you get deep. Despite this however the structure of the double stack tournies is also far superior to the regular comps on party poker. For the time being i'm happy to play on both sites and am planning on putting as many hours as i physically can in when we get back from Oakhampton.
On that note i simply can't wait for this golf holiday!!I'm not expecting to much from myself on the course but the banter will be awesome no doubt and it'll be good for some of the boys to get a break from the real world, man am i glad i'm not doing something to serious with my life.
Planning on buying into WSOPE tomorrow and then going to watch a little bit of champions league action after. Still not sure if i'm going to sell any % in myself, i think i should but at the same time i quite want to take the risk and just say oh fuck it lets gamble i don't want to give away any of my £150,000 first place, one time etc etc.
Not much going on at the moment in truth and think i'm writing this blog out of boredom more than anything else. Played 5-side football today and nearly died. Our team got quite easily beaten and i played pretty bad on pitch but was quite good in goal. Have finished Harry potter 5, another very good book and am now looking forward to smashing up the last two in the next few months.
Finally i think i have a new hero, this guy is sooooooooooooo sick funny:
