    In case my comments are misconstrued, I suppose I should grudgingly add "well done".

    I definitely don't mean ridiculously good. Ridic lucky, maybe.

    But I'm not in the least bitter.
     
    Truth is, his game has improved out of all recognition, & I'm chuffed to bits. Well, a bit chuffed. Ish.

    Lol! I guess no-one's told you that I already played in Rainman's 2.20 @ 2.20.

    Just the once, mind you.

    I'll let Rainman tell you what happened. ;-)

    Cheers for the messages lads. 

    I'm not claiming to be the best player, but I could definitely make an argument for most improved in 2015 (relative to pre-2015).

    Although, tbf it was from a pretty low starting point!

    Tikay- I love you. Ish.

    Yeah you won if I remember correctly??

    Think we should get a bit of Friday fun going tomorrow though. It's my last day off work and I have been playing it all week, great daytime mtt. If you play it would attract a big field! Up for it?

    Congrats again on the cash anyway and hopefully see you at 2.20 tomorrow haha

    Yes, I rather inconsiderately called Matt's perfectly reasonable shove with K-6 off...with a paltry A-6. 

    To be fair, I had only had one card better, and it was better only by one 'place', so I deserved Matt hitting one of the many outs available to him on the river. I think it was as many as three, if memory serves me correctly.

    I would draw people's attention once more to the insanely high position I can reach in a bounty hunter without actually hunting any bounties...which many people believe to be the entire point of the format.

    I took one head for £18. The guy who finished below me I think took £140 in head prizes.

    Yes, I like to mix things up and be unorthodox. Or should that be unorfordox?

    Came 20th out of over 500 in the mini too.

    Tikay, my coaching offer stands...

    Rich, 
    1. vwp
    2. you should practice taking bounties

    there is a tournament every day called the headhunter where all the prize pool is on heads. 

    i remember one game last year where I finished 6/64 with only 1 head which left me with a £2 loss! although the guy who  went out in 3rd had none. guess he picked the wrong tournament to go deep in. another time i won it for £53 (£5 entry) with 3 heads, but with 10 left I was the only player without any. the moral of the story is that late heads are very valuable, so no need to panic early on. that being said there are spots where you can isolate and induce small stack shoves and it is worth looking out for those.

    so give it a go and practice
