... but only in the local rag. The red tops will have to wait until my WSOP victory :)

AN Everton FC fan lived out his dream by beating four Everton legends on the pitch at Goodison Park.
But Martin Unsworth didn't tackle them playing football but instead took them on in a live poker match tournament on the pitch.
The match took place straight after the Toffees last home game of the season, where they beat Portsmouth 3 - 0.
He played against Mike Newell, Duncan McKenzie, Alan Whittle and Dave Watson in the charity Littlewoods Poker Tournament.
The 31-year-old won his place in the final competition after winning one of the four online qualifying rounds in April and he kept his cool against the players in the Texas Hold Em final.
Martin said: "I was bouncing after the 3-0 victory so I had a feeling it was going to be a great night. "I always wanted to lift a trophy on the pitch at Goodison Park, and while my footballing career never got me that dream, my new found passion did. It was an excellent day that I will bore the grandchildren about in the future."
The tournament raised £5,000, which will be shared between Leukaemia Research and the Everton Former Player Association.

Good day, sun shines!
There have were times of hardship when I didn't know about opportunities of getting high yields on investments. I was a dump and downright stupid person.
I have never imagined that there weren't any need in large initial investment.
Nowadays, I'm happy and lucky , I started take up real income.
It gets down to choose a correct partner who utilizes your money in a right way - that is incorporate it in real deals, and shares the income with me.
You may ask, if there are such firms? I have to tell the truth, YES, there are. Please get to know about one of them:
