Played moderately well in the £30 triple-chance freezeout at the Grosvenor last night. There were a couple of big hands I missed out on through being too shy to put my chips in, but after being down to 2,000 chips soon after the break, I got up to 30,000 plus and a strong position. Only 7 places paid, and I finally went out around 2.15 a.m. when my QQ was mashed by AK. (I'd carefully avoided going up against the other big stacks, but QQ was irresistible.) Oh well, 13th place.
Then, having caught the roulette bug, I put £10 down and went home with £50, mainly through betting on Odd and the ball landing on 13.

Time out
After a run of losses I've taken a break except for the odd dabble. Sky Poker has been revamped and they've cut back on the expenses: no studio guests on quiet nights, and no broadcast on AtTheRaces cable channel. Tonight my pocket tens just held up and I've gone into the break in the top ten. :-)
I've been down to the Grosvenor a few times, just for fun, and got nowhere. A couple of times I was doing okay until I got rivered. Waiting around the other night, I played roulette for the first time, sprinkling my £10-worth of chips around the table. Beginners' luck: ten minutes later I had £40.
