GUKPT - G Casino Sheffield


I have had a super busy last few days!
Thursday I started working in a School one day a week to mentor young people, Friday I got another job in Derbyshire County Council as a Residential Child Care Worker, I’m already employed as a Youth Worker for D.C.C and have been for almost 4 years now, so I’m really happy I can continue to progress my career with D.C.C.
Earlier on in the week I had been checking out the GUKPT Sheffield leg and decided that I may take a shot at the ME £500+£50. I decided to play a super satellite first in the £35+£5 re-buy on Friday to see if I could luckbox a cheap seat. After I registered I ended up playing a cash game whilst the 5 of us who registered for the super satellite were hanging around waiting for another 5 players to register(they wouldn’t start a table without at least 10 players).
Friday was the first live poker session I’d played in ages! I was so card dead! The big pots I played I lost, TPGK to 5 outta all in on flop, then later on I made a fold in a tricky spot where I was wrong. I ended up making a little money, but basically for the 8 hour session I played, my results were pretty hilarious! I played last night and this morning too.
I met a local lad on the first nights session, who I ended up giving a lift home. He was on his birthday celebration, playing the session with one friend who ended up going home at 12pm. After learning that he lived on the way I would be travelling back home, I offered to take him back as he wanted to continue his session.
So me and this guy have been playing sessions at the card room in at the G- Casino at Sheffield since Friday. So far in total we have put in about 30-32 hours of play. Pretty crazy long sessions! I’m shocked at my ability to maintain patience and discipline for these prolonged periods of time in a live card room enviroment! It gave me an idea, which is to try to play a huge session of 48 hours or more in a live card room, trying to beat my longest session record which was set online.

What is your longest session everybody? Mine is just shy of 48 hours online(with food, toilet & shower breaks),then for a live card room enviroment just the 8 hours so far.

Think we may be frequenting the G- Casino’s card room this evening too, full of energy after watching this advert:
