So with England’s fantastic win over poorly rated Kazakhstan is it worth a bet on England to beat Belarus away or am I simply wasting my money again on the ever failing England.

Everytime I dip my hand into my pocket and bet on England they let me down but I’m starting to think Capello might have turned the corner.

I’m going to start by putting a small bet on England to win the first half then if they are winning put a large bet for them to win the second half.

If the bloody team lets me down then I’m never betting on them again and I’m ripping up my England shirt as a reminder.

My back up bet is Germany vs Wales and the home team gets good odds so that’s is where the money is going.

Counting cards can reveal that Christian Elliot has been the biggest climber up the ladder of the world Series of Poker (WSOP) leader board which is used for the main event.

The United Kingdom poker star started the 2nd day at the lofty position of 174th but slowly but surley gathered up pace and managed to get to 6th place at the end of the day.

It was recorded that the second day was a great success and Elliot made the largest jump at Victoria Casino at the centre of London’s Leicester Square.

Elliot did find himself with 231,900 chips which was only 100,000 behind the main player and leader Andy Bloch.

The other usual suspects are Eric Siedel, who was in third place after the epic action and massive jump from Elliot, and Canadian WSOP legend Daniel Negreanu, who is just behind in 9Th which means he went down.

There is 1player who actually has a title which he won at the start of the month is Danish star Theo Jorgensen, who cashed in on the £5,000 Omaha event.

So I was bored the other day and i was trawling through some of the great hands you can watch on youtube and I came across, the guy Scotty Nguyen just has whats known in the industry as alls of steel and how to rub it in after the hand is over. Watch.

The great bit is a the start when he says 21 like he is raising to 21 thousand and its actually only 12 thousand then he re-raises a guy who has Ace, 10 against a 3, 8 off suit to over 100,000.

The cheek of it afterwards he shows the hand and takes the mick by saying he thought he was playing Black Jack and chasing the 21.

I love the fact that the Legend took down some wannabe in a shell suit track suit who thought he could mix it with the big boys.

One of the strange bets that I bet on this month is whether or not someone will be arrested for the racial and homophobic abuse Sol Campbell got when he was playing for Portsmouth against Spurs at the beginning of the month.

There was over 40000 people in the crowd but as the incident has received so much press coverage the police are trying to pick out one or two individuals who were responsible.

The bet which I managed to get is that one person will be arrested in connection with the abuse and charged before the end of the year at 10-1.

I’m not keeping my fingers crossed as its a long shot but if it happens I Will be a tenner up. Woot.

I think I would have got better odds on the lottery.

There are a lot of websites out there that will offer crazy odds and strange bets and some of them will accept silly bets if you pester them to accept them.

For instance you can get 100-1 on David Beckham splitting up with Victoria in 2009 and the odds of Jordan aka Katie Price having an affair behind Peter Andres back are 250-1, I cant help but stick the odd pound on these silly bets but if any of them come in I will be flying.

A funnier one is Gordan Ramsey having a celebrity fight for charity or not swearing on TV when it comes to the F word.

The one I’m definitely going to stick a bit of cash on is Kerry Katona having at least one more baby in 2009 as she cant keep her legs shut.

The girl also keeps having a bust up literally with Jordan and as they have no both brought a fragrance out there are odds on who will sell the most at Christmas, my money is on Jordan.

The girl in question is only 18 years of age, and the student Ianthe Fullagar is about to have the best change a teenager could want after she won £7 million which is part of a share on the Euro Millions jackpot at the beginning of the month. The Young lady celebrated with a glass of cider and beans on toast but I think she will be dining out more often from now on.

The girl has just completed her A levels in her gap year, and now Ianthe will be excused if she takes a back seat whilst deciding what the next move is. The funny part is as she celebrated with her mum she got a bite on the bum from her dog but then she said that she will not work for the rest of her life.

The girl announced that she hid the ticket until she claimed it from places like her bra to her knickers. What would you do if you lost the fortune of your life?

The girl is the officially the youngest winner of the euro millions and will never have to worry about money like she has been doing in her student days.

This is an old clip but Daniel Negreane is playing one on one with a old time player called Jerry Russ and for most of the match Jerry called out what card he thought was coming next, then when it finally came down to it on the last hand when both players were all in Negreanu turns the table on its head by calling out what the turn card will be and the river and predicts both getting him a straight flush to win the match.

Now I’m playing a match next week and I’m thinking if it can work once I’m sure it can work twice so I’m going to try it as a put off technique but video it as it happens to prove it if it works.

What this clip of Negreanu who again reads another player and predicts the cards again this guy really does have a sixth sense.

I need to get some mystic meg skills or learn how to read players better rather than drinking all game long.

One of the funniest things I saw this weekend was a clip on Soccer AM which was Ralph little taking part in a Hula Hoop competition which every week the task is always won buy the Soccerette.

There is obviously a reason why they always let the scoccerette win as this winner has to bounce on a trampoline afterwards mainly for the male fans.

Now I always watch this with my girlfriend and we have a bet on who wins and this time she ended up loosing backing the Soccerette when I had heard that Ralph was a diamond hula Hooper.

Check it out. CLICK THIS

The legend delivered the best casual hula hoop spin in life and then was challenged by Nadine Velazquez which is the famous Catalina from My Name Is Earl.

The usual suspects I.E the soccerette and Velazquez thought they had won then Ralph decided to show Velazquez how to do the hula hoop hip movement sealing the win and his celebratory trampoline bounce plus, me a cooked breakfast.

Macau has been the most successful casino in the past ten years within the industry but everyone is saying that it is finally on the down turn. One of the main problems is the Chinese government have make slight changes to the visa conditions for all the visitors in the Guangdong to the Macau area. The changes that have happened have put the gaming industry back years.

Currently the visa strict guide lines between Guangdong and Macau which give people rights to go to the are once every 2 months have now been changed to every 3 months. Now with this change we are seeing we are seeing that the gambling industry was not ready for this. Lots of people are not aware that Guangdong houses the main point for visitors to Macau and now the changes will more than half the repeat visitors and will really hurt the area.

This new sanction is bound to get on the nerve of US casino groups who have thrown millions at the casino region over the past few years. How can these figures now be reacquired and will the investors stay in the sector?

The wsop is over and no one would have said it would have taken a record 484 hands that award the winner with the greatest crown available in poker which was awarded at Leicester square in London. Take a bow John Juanda who claimed the title for America which is also  first plus claiming a massive $1,598,587 jackpot. Now if we look at the actual stats you will find that the final wasn’t easy for John Juanda and he earned that cash!

The actual time for this was 19 hours and 10 minutes and took 484 hands to complete. This is now in the Guinness book of world records and is the longest final ever at the World Series of Poker and I don’t think it will ever be beat!

So who is John Juanda?

The now legend has entered the WSOP 45 times and he has been on the final table 23 times. Born in Indonesia the new poker star now resides in the USA in which he studies MBA.

This is obviously John Juanda’s largest win of jackpots but if you track his earlier career he has won multiple  $100,000 pots so we knew he could eventually do it!
