London was the final stop of the UKIPT season. It was only my third event though and I felt like I'm just getting started. That's what I get for being AWOL in Asia the last couple of years I guess.After a disappointing Day 1 bust out in Edinburgh and small cash in Cork, I went to London hoping to improve on those results and take a shot at the £150,000 first place prize.
Main Event Day 1
I only managed to sleep for a few hours the night before so I wasn't happy to learn that we'd be playing for 11 levels. Including breaks that meant that the day, beginning at midday, would end around 1am. Tough grind.
I missed the first 15 minutes of play because I had to queue up to get the new PS Live card that's now required for entry into live PokerStars events. They gave me fair warning about this with an email telling me to turn up early. Early isn't my style though.
