    Quick shoutout to pompeynic, hope things are soon resolved at home. I had just written to him to see if he was ok, & never realised he had posted yesterday.

    For me Jac, Phantom and myself should progress. There was ample timeto organise these games and you should be trying to organise them when the draw is made, forgetting about it is a no no, eliminate the others.

    ^^^^

    In truth, the only reason Phantom is hesitating is because he feels awkward, as he "benefits" from a walkover. 

    He should not worry about that, he has not sought to gain any advantage. It will go on forever unless he sticks to the pre-agreed rules.

    Yep, give Sepp ''Phantom'' Blatter the walkover.

    I'm online and refreshing the find a player without luck at the moment.

    Hoping GRINTLER is around to save me having to make a decision about myself.

    Ger, understand where you are coming from.

    I'll think on this overnight.

    Hi Jac

    Could play Tuesday night, though still happy to be disqualified as I appear to have missed the deadline to post about this.

    Well Wilhelm, you appear to be doing your best to make me feel bad.

    Yes, for the extension I was expecting a post before the deadline for the round.

    The idea of the extension was to support two players "actively trying" to get a fixture played.

    I logged on this morning and saw that you and pompeynic had not posted and so I prepared the Round 4 draw with walkovers for Jac and Ger.

    Both times you posted on here you acknowledged you were in error and would accept being scratched so I am afraid there it is.

    When this happened in the past and if it happens in the future I need to side with the players who have been active here.

    Sorry W.

    Just finished my match with lmfaoallin and managed to snag a closely fought 3-2 victory. We decided on the turbo format which might have been a bad choice, before you have time to blnik your basically playing push fold poker. Pretty crazy game where we got dealt the same hand A LOT, including AQ V AQ all in pre, 44 v 44 all in pre, q4s v q4h and nut str8 v nut str8 with both holding T9. Was fought in good spirits and half expected him to get the win after coming from behind twice to draw level, but there was no cinderella story as i managed to cooler him JJ v A7o. So onwards to the enxt round, hope i get 'stayorgo' next definitely the biggest fish left in the comp and guaranteed to win that one. Also after a £200 losing session, it was nice to make 40p of it back.

    Wp Danny.

    Vg games, really enjoyed it.

    Was a very close contest, crazy how on so many occasions when it went aipf we had exact same hand!

    Exciting stuff too with you twice taking the lead and me levelling up each time to go into the final match 2-2, so nearly hero'd ace high at the end there, wp m8 and gl in the next round, hope you tid!

    Big up Phantom for organising it all too, great stuff. Hope it becomes a regular fixture.

    Sorry for late reply, working silly hrs atm.

    No need to feel bad, certainly not my intention.

    I hope you don't feel I've disrespected the competition, just for one reason or another poker has been very low on my agenda lately.

    Thanks Wilhelm.

    I certainly do not think you have disrepected the competition.

    I am 100% sure that as a community regular you entered this competition in good faith and that circumstances changed.

    The nut worse thing about running this thing for me is awarding walkovers. 

    Regards,

    FlashFlush I'm travelling to your ground for this fixture so let me know what and when you want to play. After tonight I'm likely going to be busy until the new year but if you're on and see me at the tables give me a shout.

    Hi Tsarina,

    I should be around for most of UKOPS, Would be great to play between 5pm and 6pm on one of those days, before the main MTT schedule starts. Let me know what day suits you best.

    Have a great Xmas.

    Cheers,

    Graham (StayOrGo)

    After a tightly fought contest which I nearly threw away after going 2-0 up, I edged ChippyPig 3-2 to get to the next round. There was nearly a cinderella story as I found myself flipping to survive in the final game but I managed to hold and went on to win, despite chippy's best efforts of spinning it back up from 20 chips. We weren't sure how much it was up to so just decided on first to three :) I truly am the specialist of ragging wins by a 1 game margin
