James “HullJimi” Greenwood enjoys some entertaining chat – and a steady climb in the PartyPoker Bankroll Challenge <\/strong><\/p>\n

Another good week!<\/p>\n

Not played as much as I’d have liked this week but I’ve managed a $50 rise to the bankroll. I’m not sure if I’ve been playing well or on the end of some good variance but for most of the week, when I’ve entered a pot, I’ve won it. I’ve waited for the cards and 9 times out 10 I have been paid off.<\/p>\n

Another curious thing has happened this week – I’ve started to get a few players talking about this blog in the chatbox.<\/p>\n

Now some of the players have been asking questions about the challenge, some of the players have been congratulating me and some have been….well, like this:<\/p>\n

(UsernameRemoved): Hull, your on the PP blog?
\nHullJimi: yup
\n(UsernameRemoved): why?
\nHullJimi: part of a challenge, read it
\n(UsernameRemoved): ok<\/p>\n

Bit of a wait….<\/p>\n

(UsernameRemoved): your ****
\nHullJimi: thanks, I’ll take that on board
\n(UsernameRemoved): i’m better than you are, I should do the challenge
\nHullJimi: well, apply, I’m sure you could be next
\n(UsernameRemoved): i’m going to ruin it and take all your $$$
\nHullJimi: gl<\/p>\n

Bit of a wait….(UsernameRemoved) and I end up in a pot. I have top set on a rainbow flop.<\/p>\n

(UsernameRemoved): fold Hull
\nI put him all in. He calls. The turn and flop cause no futher damage and I show top set against an overpair.
\n(UsernameRemoved): i had you beat on the flop. Your ****
\nHullJimi: have another look at the hand history!
\nBit of a wait, he’s still sitting out…
\n(UsernameRemoved): tell the blog you lucked out against me
\nHullJimi: i’ll use this chat if you like
\n(UsernameRemoved): ok
\nHullJimi: are you sure you want me too? You look a bit of a muppet….
\n(UsernameRemoved): your ****<\/p>\n

And he leaves the table!<\/p>\n

Current Bankroll: $157.53
\nLast Week: $106.39<\/strong><\/p>\n

James started his Bankroll Challenge with $25 in his account. He intends to make a small fortune at your expense, folks!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
