17th in the Primo

Been playing rubbish lately but couldn't resist the £15,000 kitty in tonight's £50 Primo. Survived a crazy first hour thanks in part to the lucky break I've been due: I pushed with A8, AK called and an 8 came on the flop. At the break I was in the top 20, but my stack refused to grow and by the end of the second hour I was well into grinding mode.

An example of my recent performance: I managed turn $10 on Ultimate Bet into $50, then managed to turn it into $0! That was all playing Omaha High-Low, a game that's a lot funner than Holdem but requires different hand analysis.

A plea for more games

Shame Sky Poker has no Omaha... Omaha HiLo is probably my favourite game - it's a bit tough on the brain sometimes but it is funner than holdem. Currently I get my fix at Party Poker. Tonight I sat down at a $1 table and turned $100 into $236 in three minutes, thanks to rivering the wheel on my first hand.

I've just had a pint of IPA but the guy who just pushed all-in with nothing, allowing me to win with just a pair of kings, what's he been drinking? Or smoking? So now I'm on over $300 should I quit, or take a chance that the table is going to carry on being this easy?
