OH NO!

I've let myself down with this one!! There was a deadline for 5th October, and I have been non stop partying since 3rd October which was the VIP Party day at BOM. I was meant to be writing here to tell you guys all about it, but I was so hungover the day after I thought I'd wait and even now my head feels like I have hit it onto a wall and the events of that night are more than a 'bit' of a blurr...

It started when I arrived, I walked to the bar and said I'll have a double JD and coke (nothing like easing into things...) I took some cash from my pocket and the barman told me it was free, on the house, VIPs don't pay for drinks... Well things were going to get a little crazy from this point I had no doubt about it...

A few more JD's and I didn't really care who I was talking to, so I went and pulled up a seat next to @Daniel Negreanu@Nicolas Levi  , @Phil Hellmuth  and @Phil Ivey , others were just sitting around on the outskirts, but i just went straight in there and pulled up a chair.

I started talking some semi random stuff to introduce myself and I could see Daniel and the two Phil's were thinking who is this guy? But Nicolas came to the rescue when he said.. oh this is skilful he's our blogger, well with that little introduction all hell broke loose. They all started telling me about some crazy stories I can't even repeat here in print.

Anyway to the point of this article you want to know what was going on at the party. @B165L1Ck75  was still on cloud 9 from having the news his wife was pregnant! Very nice, and we all spent some time congratulating him for this.

@Rémi Rkh  has just finished the latest newsletter for RKH which included photos of @Elena RKH and @Alessio Bianchi  dancing and of course victory photos of @Ina Rkh  who was still enjoying every moment of the party after finishing 1st in the whole main event, her efforts entering the sunday supersats had paid off after all!

Having gathered this news early in the party, and also having just spent the past hour at the table of these poker celebrities I made it my task to go and find some more RKH celebrities of my own, because i needed to get the lowdown on how their main event had gone.

First I found @Jonny2192  laughing away with @Arty Mcfly , Jonny knew he was going to be seeing Arty tonight so to everyones amusement had come dressed as a penguin. Funnily enough he had a sign around his neck in big white letters which read 'Not Pingachu' apparently an in joke between the two about the way that Unibet had finally released the Penguin Avatar after Arty's 1 year petition / lobbying campaign only for someone to beat Arty to his own name!

I ordered some oysters for Arty, couldn't resist that little joke before leaving the table and ventured out across the dance floor. I did a bit of Ceroc on my way through (it had been quite a few years... but surprising what comes back to you) - not sure EVERY lady

I happened to randomly take into my arms and start dancing with fully appreciated my 'shouldersway switch' or 'catapult' or the Ceroc dance floor spirit of if a lady is free dance with her, but it was fun - and there were a few funny things to report, but being the blogger here I have the great privilidge of deciding what to include in this report and what not to! :)

Back to the bar and i didn't even need to order as it was just lined up with cocktails from one end to the other, nice i took two and carried on with my reporting tour. I spied @Mark Duguid  next, who was at the bar talking to @Jason Somerville ,Jason has just invited Mark onto one of his Tuesday twitch streams as a special guest, very nice for a long term fan, - and you heard it here first guys!

I ended my night of reporting by catching @William Calder and #Jaime Staples  who were discussing the pros and cons of the delayed CBet on monotone flops. But not before spending half hour with @Kat Arnsby ,@Annie RKH  @Liv Boeree and @Victoria Coren Mitchell who were all discussing the rise of female pros in the sport, for an article Kat was putting together.

There you have it guys, the VIP party was the BOM at BOM

and i'll wrap this report up now, because we've arranged to do it all again just for fun in about... 3 hours time!
