I believe Patrick had a strong position going into the deal. He had more
headsup experience at both short and deep stack depths, momentum and
obviously a 4-1 chip lead.Negotiations were slow and arduous, Patrick wanted
more money and Will didn’t want to budge much. All signs looked like we were going to play; and then I had an
idea.
My Goal Was to Get Patrick the Best Deal Possible
Thanks to the one flight a day from Dublin to East Midlands my day was off to a 5:30 start and trip to the airport, I was in Nottingham by
10AM and managed to blag early check in at my hotel and catch some zzz’s, result! Day 1 was pretty uneventful, I managed to avoid many difficult spots at a tough table and found myself chipping up
steadily, The one annoying spot I found myself in was a hand right at the end of the day against a very tough opponent and good friend of
mine Dominik Nitsche, We are 6 handed and I raise to 3600 from HJ+1 at 1600/800/200 with kd js,Dominik calls from the big blind.

The weather was for the most part great and I ended up walking far more than I’ve walked in a long time, averaging
14km a day! This extra exercise definitely helped me feel slightly less guilty about enjoying some amazing food in the mornings and evenings.

The Melbourne bar scene is awesome. I met up with my friend
Bryce who’s been living in Melbourne for a few years now, we were joined by Rupert and two of
his friends, Nipun and Alex and we went on something of a bar crawl. Bryce knew all the spots and we
went from bar to bar finding some real gems.

Australia is far away, really far away. My trip to Melbourne was far from
optimal was not without incident(s). The first leg of the trip to Dubai
started off poorly as upon checkin I found my aisle seat had turned into a middle seat next to an extremely
tall man who couldn’t help but overflow his arms and legs into my
personal space.
