I need to take this opportunity to publicly thank TK. I've just been told at a table that he almost begged the show producers on TV last night, to award me a free tournament token for my amazing facts sent into the show thread! Not only that, he rooted for me all the way during the last longer competition, and was publicly overcome with joy and emotion when I managed to win it!
Completed, all at £3.00 level , 44%. As that was a shocking percentage, can I have a go at the second chance please, starting 1600 9/11/2014. Thanks. Posted by winshoes
Oh dear - just lost the £10dym - very very close but no cigar.
Was going so well with a s/stack to my right on the bubble too. I was 2nd short just behind 2nd place with a big stack to my left. At one point I have 2k to opponent <400.
shortie had it in bad against another opponent once and me twice and bounced back.
Then the hand that almost did for me - not a perfect hilo hand but Id rather go for hi only than lo only and as it turned out I was miles ahead but not to be. we were sb and bb, (not so) shortie (by now) min raised and I potted - both all-in - I have opponent covered by only 250 chips. I have AAQ9 with AQc. Opponent shows KTT3 with 3diamonds. 3 on flop, K on turn, blank river - sigh.
Started on my own miracle recovery when forced aipf from s/b v all 3 opponents - managed to split an 8-lo for a double up. Then doubled again. Then 2nd stack min raises button and I have AAT9 with ATh on BB easy shove with only one more big behind. Called and shows J326. Obviously now want a high flop - Q56, 7 on the turn - but the split still goood? J on river and its gg gn!
2 random pairs done me - not normally one for bad beat stories but on a £10'er not only a big swong B/R wise but means I am back to square one for the bravery challenge.
Finally got round to starting tonight, will play more on the double points week cestlavie 5292.50 1 £6 MB64 4157.50 2 £6 SolarCarro 2550 3 £6 Folded to the win in a £3.30 1/1 Posted by SolarCarro
Hi Dave, don't play anymore until gerardirl posts the leaderboard and you'll have the leading win ratio. ;-)
Double points week for SNG's! I'm sure we'll see lots more traffic, lots more results coming in, lots of people finishing by the end of the week. Pretty much everyone will play more I guess due to the promotion and the end of UKOPs. Apart from TK that is. He's going to look at a tunnel instead.
Improved to 23/33 and really getting a taste for these now having played around with a few different strategies. Had one needless exit early vs Macacgirl..... I think I still played it right but no need to go to war 6 handed.

Don't forget it is "DOUBLE REWARD POINTS" all week on SNG's.
I may well donate later today.
