    hi guys, I know my english isnt what it should be,and yes i,d probaly could do with some help with the correct grammar. however if everything was grammatically correct,well that would not be a true reflection of myself. My intention was to try this challenge,and let the sky community know,how it was going,i have tried to use humor,as that reflects me as a person.Now in the posts, i have also tried to explain how i played the hands and why,and most important what my own thoughts were.Yes there will be many,incorrect spellings,not the correct use of the queens english,but hey thats me. Yes TK i did win the primo,and have been at the final table of a few M.E,and cashed several times. I havent played on this site for over ayear now,down to stupidity(is that correct),could u believe it ,i thought i was better than i was,so couldnt really handle bad beats,only because i was probaly playing,outwith my bankroll. well anyway i m back. I am hoping to learn discipline from this challenge. Tingle Creek what a horse, it was ridden every day by H thomson jones head lad,Fred Flippance (what a truly decent man he was) Oh yes feed back,yes all is welcome,be it on my poker,grammar,spelling or anything else.I do not offend easily Basically i would welcome any feedback on my wee ,if they are funny or not,and how i could improve them stories. So keep reading,and all help with any ideas that u might have.

    Sky are changing their software so that the best hand when the money goes in the middle always wins?

    Imagine the game of poker without any bad beat stories... how much happier would everyone be!

    ps good luck with your challenge Judge!

    Am sure I've seen you at my tables in the past couple of weeks... although I'm not the most observant and it may be another name with 'judge' in it. If it was you, it's another name I'll be trying not to play too many tables with as you seemed a pretty competent cash player.

    Evening Judge - glad I didn't come back from work to a hail of abuse in this thread. Offence is not my bag, so apologies if that's how you read it. It was meant to be good-natured ribbing. You know, two guys down the pub swapping digs over a drink.

    Anyways, good luck with your challenge :)

    You seem to have spaces where the fullstops should be i think you're grammar is fine but you're full stop button is broken!

    I wouldn't worry too much about your grammar and spelling. It's better than a lot of posters on this and other forums I read.
    I am a little concerned about your wee though. Have you been eating a lot of Sugar Puffs ?

    For advice just post up some hands/spots that you find difficult and we can offer some advice, otherwise just get used to beats and variance because you will see plenty

    If you re-read the posts, tsarina, you'll see where humour and sarcasm are cross-pollinated, and I'm not the only one guilty of it. I often address language, spelling, et al in my posts, because that's my... thing. It's never intended maliciously - which most people around these parts know - and it certainly wasn't in this instance. You always run the risk of 'losing something in translation', and that is what has happened here on both sides . Sarcasm often falls down in this medium.

    Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit but the highest form of intelligence as far as im concerned it may not be appreciated by all but it takes a quick mind to be able to think of sarcastic responses

    ive had comments made on my posts by slip and if you cannot take a joke then you shouldn't read his posts
     
    its not meant to be harmful in any way

    Calm down, folks. The guy finished his opening post with, "Any feedback would be helpful", so I made a rudimentary comment - with my tongue firmly in my cheek - which actually does fulfil the criteria of being any help . It was one line, which I'm sure Judge is over already.
