Born 30 something years ago into a card-playing clan in the North of England: the low-roller's poker odyssey has taken him from the school common-room via down-trodden Midlands' casinos, smoky Cotswolds pubs, celebrity Soho drinking spots and of course the ubiquitous world of cyberspace to the home of poker itself, Las Vegas. Join his search for juicy take-downs, great pot odds and the occasional back-door straight as he goes for glory.

Independence Day
I have my $10,000, I have made my decision, I will play the final day, July 6th. I am feeling the pressure - I am still reliving that hand at the Venetian, and I intend to assert my independence and head out of town. Rather like Gary Numan I need to spend time in my car - back home I average two hours every day of the year. Over here I am getting withdrawal symptoms, and I can't face two days of thumb twiddling, so Arizona here I come....sunset in Sedona should suit me fine. That's it, I'd like to make some witty repartie but the butterflies won't let me. Thanks to you 30 something loyal readers - this 30 something would like to be richer at 40, but it's going to take something special with 52 cards.

Simon - good luck and have fun.
I am turning my son and nephew on to your blog as well, so they should soon be #s 32 and 33 :-)
Best,
David
Stocks, you know you can do this.
