In Response to Re: Sunday's Primo - with James & Stu (***OFFICIAL LIVE SHOW THREAD***) : I know one lucky Button clicker who has won 8 main events this year to date, although not each day of the week I believe. He's also devilishly handsome. Posted by TommyD

I feel like im going to get a bit of stick for it. To understand the history between me and this opponent is key. He's seen me bluff a fair few spots so is likely to think im going light check/raising... or best im on a draw (which I am). The reraise caught me by surprise. This guy is passive. He is super passive. He doesnt 4 bet kings or aces pre.... like ever and he always seems to play his big hands slow - he has let me bluff off £120 in a previous hand. So when he 4 bets... oddly, i think he is super light, hence the 5 bet. And to me the 6 bet is an even bigger indicator that he's light. If he had a draw.... surely hes shoving... if he had a big hand, he'd call and let me bluff everything into him. This is how this guy plays. He doesn't want to let go of this pot with a distinctly average hand/possibly nothing.... so I shove. He folds and i pick up the pot.
Essentially... were the quality of my notes good enough for me to 'outbluff him' or did I get really lucky by him making a massive laydown.
Managed to satellite in tonight although it took me 2 x £6 directs and 2 x £12 semis so at £36 it's still a small discount. Hopefully have a few interesting hands to send in... and more hopefully I'll still be in by the time I do the Skype call!
In Response to Re: Sunday's Primo - with James & Stu (***OFFICIAL LIVE SHOW THREAD***) : Congrats on reaching the three-year milestone, Michael. We'll definitely give the Forum DTD a shout-out on tonight's show. Posted by J-Hartigan
Hi James and Stu
I played the primo and won the first big blind. I was the small blind. Next hand I was all in (cant remember what I had) and lost the lost. Had 20 chips left. I went on to win Primo. Still don't know how I did it.
Think yourself lucky you're in a nice warm studio, not at one of the NFL games - have a look at the pictures of the white stuff falling at Philadelphia, Detroit, Green Bay, Washington....
I'm currently playing the mini primo and we're in the middle of level two. I have already had AA twice (in position too) and KK once also. Sadly on all three occasions everyone has folded .. how frustrating!!
EDIT: Got AA once more but this time I won the pot on the flop - it's about time!
Can you give a big shout out to GARYCHAP28, who is in the £500k ukpc final, played a sat into this for just over £1 last night and now trying to get a seat into the final.
Gl to him and all in this tonight, great show to as allways
Great show as ever. I'm in the UKPC final tonight managing to satellite in from the two pound eighty sat. Fingers crossed I can be the third player to go all the way.
hi i have just bust out what was my most dull and boring MTT yet
at the very start of it i had 2 premium pairs and the board flopped a paired board i for a cbet but it caused a fold on both occasions and from then on i was getting nothing but junk so much so that i took a very big risk with A8 attempting a bluff on a river that had K J 10 9 x bluffing the straight and it did work but constant folds again. so i just called 1010 and got the worst flop with two others holding AK QJ so went out to the flop QJ9.
my question is would checking the flop be more value with premium pairs at the start of these
