I posted this some time ago...
https://www.cardschat.com/forum/general-poker-13/lost-my-day-job-blew-my-139741/

I would like to say a big thank you to everyone. Without exception, all of the posts were genuine and helped me in my plight.

Quick over view. The money I lost I won back and more. However, the day job situation did not change, so I took on board advice and withdrew about $1,500 from all my poker accounts, leaving me with a zero balance on all sites apart from Party $4.12 and FT $1.54. I am now starting to try to climb the tree via freerolls and micro stakes poker. :(

Also, with the advice it gave me the momentum to push my entertainment job, so I am now in the position where I am not far short of making as much as an entertainer as I was with my day job. I have recently got a good agent, have pulled together a six piece band to use if I need them and have got funding off the government to redesign website (the old one is still up), promote the show, etc.

So again, a massive thank u to all at Cardschat - a big reason for my change in fortunes!!!

Check out my website if you fancy ;)

Take care

Mike

Good news, m8. We were talking about you at the London meet-up and wondering how you were getting on. Glad to hear that things are looking up for you.

nice to hear things are going good for you.
I love your website. Very good photo's(I;m a retired photographer).
I live about 50 miles from Elvis' home in Missisippi. Great part of the country here. Come and vsit sometime. you need to see Graceland.

I had a thought, when I was in Vegas a few years back. There was an Elvis performer like yourself, when he was finished with he set, he sat at the poker table($1/$2). He said people love to play him because of the legend. It gives them good luck. Everytime he raised these ladies folded.
Give it a try see what happends.

Just one question. on your wbesite you had a show at the white house.
5 pounds - pie and peas included. What the heck is that?
I've been to England and ireland many times with relitivs in both. But this
is odd to me.

Anyway , cheers and see you at the felt mate.

It`s a very `Northern English` thing :D

Pie = mince meat in pastry
Peas = ...well, peas!!! (Little round green veg)

But its nothing to do with me, I just go and perform!!!
