Christmas Cracker Festival, Brighton

The Christmas Cracker Festival at the Rendezvous Casino, Brighton Marina, is a festival I’ve had some success at in the past.   Last year I qualified via satellite for the £500 Main Event, and cashed for a couple of thousand or so in the £200 freezeout.  This year I haven’t got the whole week off, but at the same time my goal is still to qualify for the Main and play at least one other event.  Now I haven’t had a lot of poker in the run-up to this one – I busted pretty early in a £25 freezeout at The Grosvenor in Brighton when my nut-flush ran into a flopped full-house, and a few sessions online, (which I don’t particularly like and am not that good at), have gone ok but nothing to write home about.

But the satellites make for a good way to get back into it all again.  I think I have a decent understanding of how to play satts, and so am fairly confident going in.
