Well done Andi Need to win some more now:) As Max said the 7:15 and 7:45 games are great fun for £1.1 and £2.20 There is a forum game on tonight total cost a fiver (DTD) Check it out in the main poker chat thread. Posted by LARSON7
thank you I have reg for the 220 dtd but my lap top can only handle one game at a time (it always freezes if i open another table?)
and quickly nerves kicked in and panic set in and threw
the chance of going further by shoveing with 2nd pair ...sigh, soon as I done it I thought how silly was that.
is it a case of just more experince to stopping the silly mistakes when deep or is there any thing the players who regulary go deep did to 'learn' not to make them ? (books ,videos ect) or is it just back to experince...
but Im not going to lie I dont enter tornys above my bank roll but if I go deep nerves a definatly a proplem :-)
I should be on here bragging about coming 6th in a fairly major torny but feel i could have done better!(but I bet every one does)
small update..... plugging away kind of just enjoying learning still really , had a few cashes got into a habit of getting a little bank roll going and tilting it of pretty quick if I have a chance of a nice long session with no distractions and I go out early of a torny quickly Joined TPT I hope to gain out of that ! some how made the final table of the mini roller https://www.skypoker.com/secure/poker/sky_lobby?action=go_tnmt_lobby&game_id=10655603&guid=65511d5f-1236-4fc9-ad30-6fadaa906679 and quickly nerves kicked in and panic set in and threw the chance of going further by shoveing with 2nd pair ...sigh, soon as I done it I thought how silly was that. is it a case of just more experince to stopping the silly mistakes when deep or is there any thing the players who regulary go deep did to 'learn' not to make them ?

Any FT is a good result. You must of played well to get there in the 1st place, so very well done. If that one hand was good, and he was on a draw that missed, who knows how far you could of gone. I know it kind of sucks to get that far without winning, but please focus on the positives. Forget that hand and just admire your new swelled Bank Roll today
As for advice....I am not sure. Each to there own but reading/watching videos might help or just watching a few final tables looking at some plays.
You could also post hands and ask for advice. I hardly ever go down this route TBH as reading hand histories make my eyes bleed. You always also get 'experts' telling you 6 different ways you should of played the hand/s. When you only get 10 seconds to make these decisions....sometimes you have to just go with 'your feeling'.
Best of luck anyway and I hope your success grows and grows.

PS. TPT are a good friendly team too. You will get better advice than mine of some of the players in that line up (apart from pokertrev who is useless)
Back to watching and reading as much as I can during the week incase I make it there again and not make the same 'mistake' perhaps I should concentrate more on the first hour of the show I have to admit i didnt normally
take as much notice as I should as I thought I wouldnt make that many F/T !
Thank you Tikay and mrs duck! Ive got 10 mins so had to post about my night....
It started in the 'up your game' freroll which i managed to cash £10 in ,so thought
right lets have another go at the mini (even though it is a little above my bank roll
management promises I made to myself :-) )
plodding away when I was dealt 99 ...
reraised all in ...
so thought call in a moment of madness... up against AA
9 fell on the river ...! felt bad really so said sorry then next hand the same feller shuved and I called again with a low pair against a10 a 10 fell and i typed NH but then i hit my set!and I think it came across wrong and
was called rude in the chat box ..I had no intention of being rude and was mortified and said so but I think the feller (posh92)had gone but It was a genuine mistake I hope he can read this and accept it was a mistake and my apology...
kept up my game really got my head down and concentrated..before i knew it I had a big stack
But I was determined not to let this one go
Then the next big stack joined my table....
before you know it his betting into me and it really was my night and flopped a full house against his high flush
boom all in shuv called and I had a big lead !
then nerves really kicked in and I tightend right up ,got some good wishes of Maxally and fellow TPT's which was really appreciated but kept up my game and found myself on the F/T again but far from a big stack about 5th
any way the cards fell good and Boom I took it down
This really means a lot to me as one it allows me to keep playing a game I really Enjoy and never thought I could take a big Torny down and I can genuinely treat myself to something!
