    Have sat into the main event tonight on my first and only attempt. Obv won't be taking the rebuy, but as I've already said the structure is good so I can't see it being that much of a disadvantage. There is no addon either which helps even more.

    Not buying into the mini though.....have only just recovered from last nights losses so will prob just play a deepy and £500 BH on the side.

    BR = £59.22......as playing the 35p BH atm

    No cashes last night but no major damage done either.

    Alongside the Doublechance I also played the £2.20 deepstack (which I never got going in) and the £500 BH (mid stages). The Doublechance started really well and not being able to rebuy didn't really affect me as I built up a reasonable stack by the first break. As we approached the mid to latter stages I made a questionable call from a shortstack shove with 55....they had KK lol. I managed to double up soon after and was sitting with 12bb. I exited by 3 bet shoving with 10's against KQs.......the KQ got there on the river by hitting the flush and out I went in 88th place.

    Quite happy with how I played, like I said there was only that call with the 55 that I'm not too sure about. If my 10's had held then I would have been in reasonable shape as we approached the money. Tis poker!

    Going to have a couple of attempts at the 12kBH sats today then prob play the usual tourneys.

    BR = £54.72

    There's no denying that you're quite fond of the odd bubble yourself.

    I did finally manage a cash last night but I prob played more sats than I should have and ended up slightly down for the evening.

    Finished 7th in a £250 BH......can't find the lobby in the "My Tables" section for some reason.

    Not a bad night at the tables tonight, 2 final tables so can't complain. One hand that still bugs me slightly (will post below).

    Really enjoyed the Orfordable tonight (easy to say when you cash) but the chat on the tables was great throughout and this mtt is up there with the DTD's imo........win or lose it's always a great laugh.

    So, results......played 3 dyms and lost them all, don't think I did anything wrong got my chips in good but it wasn't to be.

    £250 BH....final table

    waller0206£9.05 + £5.16 Head Prizes5

    Orfordable.......another final table. I must confess that I may have been slightly intoxicated by this point (was!) so apologies if I was chatting codsh it/too much...was fun though.

    waller0206£23.81
    Was a great game with a good rail. Friday night orfy is always a good substitute to a night in the boozer!

    BR = £63.21

    Here is the hand that bugged me......we are both the chip leaders in the orfy at this stage. We have been having a bit of a battle going on. I had been 3 betting when they raised in the past few orbits (with the goods ofc ;) ) so I think that they think I haven't got much here. The flush has obv got there but I'm still beating a lot. Is this the right call?? Shoving the river would be bad??? Should I fold given that we are the top 2 stacks? Should I bet the river??? Thoughts please

    yea had a bad run the other nite didnt cash 5 in a row but roi is 18% or 19% which not bad tried going up stakes for first time in ages 3.30 dym and won woo hoo.

    But agree this site need at least one more 1.10 tourney every night i love the deepy but just takes too long. One with 5 or 7 mins blind would be great 20 quid gtd or something with late reg.

    I hated the spot, oppo turns up with the flush a lot here. I didn't bet because if I'm raised then life becomes even harder! I did call and they did have the flush. When discussed on the table there were a couple of people who said I should have shoved the river.....but then I would have been bust. As played I left myself with a 9bb which I did manage to recover slightly and finish in the money.

    I did play 3x £1.60 sats to get there but even just one head prize would make it worth it.

    For the value and the fact that it is a BH if you are rolling over £50 I think you should buy in here

    naughty, naughty 

    the two of you should be ashamed of yourselves

    what value?

    1/10th of the bankroll on one large field event is totally unneccessary and inappropriate

    & yeah - gl - but you are making things tougher on yourself
