Top tip, don't reg an £11 game with the sharks whilst playing NLH tournaments then play a heads up match all at the same time! Doesn't normally end well.
You're defo right, even with the priority lot not allowed in the points chase yesterday, i still think we are bang out of luck. Canny promo from Sky, I'll wager they actually made money.
I'm pretty much pokered out now to be honest.
Will just single table it today on and off, I fancy playing some backgammon and talking that lot to distraction, mind you the BG lot are a bit serious.
Going to a Christmas party tonight, brilliant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fixed your post.
And yes, a clever Promo, & I hope it was a commercial success, so they do it again. I actually wrote to the Suits this morning & told them how much enthusiasm there was from everyone about it. Not that they'll take a blind bit of notice of me, like.
The PLO8 crew have no chance, of course, as we don't have any games above £11, which is a shame. But, as we know, it's just not possible to balance these Promos & Offers to satisfy everyone. No complaints here though, it was such a fun night.
Aimed to just about finish off my set of 25 today but totally failed as the local zoo were having a "Locals" weekend, so I popped along and saw what I can only assume are some of Macac's long lost relatives? http://www.fchd.info/temp/Macaque.jpg Anyway, now on 12 of 19, so I make it I need to win all of my last 6 to tie those at the top of the leaderboard.

Love macaques, beautiful.
My username is a long and boring story and isn't meant to mean anything, Macac is something I use for all usernames as I won't forget it. I have been asked if it's supposed to be macca or macaque and nope, it's not.
I do wish I'd put some thought into it though, rather than asking my son to register me here then my good self simply adding a 1 to my login name for my table name.
If I could change my username, I'd change it to TKLuvsMe.

Still available, but "TIKAYsucks" & "TikayWho" have both been taken. Truly. "TikaysKid" has gone, too.
Quick shout out to "whizzewky" who, fingers crossed, may pop into this thread shortly, after Posting HERE yesterday.
Can't be many players on Sky Poker who have played more DYM's than Whizzy, & he's a proper bloke, plays the game in the right spirit & takes his beats like a proper grown-up.
...and my "Welcome" question to Whizzy is an odd one, & we'll not mention names, but.....
There is one player who seems to relentlessly troll you, & make comments about your personal life & appearance.
You boys got history, or is it just bants?
Some of his comments seem a bit intrusive to me, but if it's a bit of fun, then that's cool.
Have to say, you have great game. There are EXACTLY 4 players in the PLO8 crew who, if I have Fold Equity, I will consider folding to when I have raised a bit light. You are one of those 4.

Hi all, yes apart from making several thousand from plo8 in 2016 my other plan is to contribute to threads such as this one
!. In answer to your question,i have several trolls on skypoker,a lot of it is just banter,but there are 2! on plo8 who i do not have much time for..This is not for plo8 badbeats etc. but purely for their manner in conducting themselves on the tables.Sadly i'm a stickler for rules and if people fall short of these i go out of my way to make sure that it is unacceptable.I'm 95% correct in the comments i make,but as in one case recently i have been known to be wrong! In such a case i will go out of my way to make amends.
Thank you for your nice comments tikay..i will endevour to keep you on your toes!!
Whizz your a legend man, I watched you play before I turned to plo8. Great to see you join in the forum. Always a pleasure to play on a table with you. Ger Posted by gerardirl
Thank you ger, always nice to play on your table too! i try to be on my best behaviour as i'm a huge fan of the plo8 community..I'm keeping a full record in 2016 of my plo8 fortunes..i'm starting with a br of £500 and see how long it lasts!It may be a long year from mid january onwards:)
Well played To you and Karen this year impressive is not quite enough to justify your achievments.
Mis regged for plo8 dym, thought it was nlh. I really had a lot of fun even though still don't understand how to play it properly. All I can say is sorry Arfur, but you should have known better, came 3rd. Not bad for someone who's really rusty when it comes to playing plo8
Also thanks to phantom for the nice welcome as well as arfur too.

I graciously resign from this challenge, unfortunately I'm going to be unable to complete it. You can always default my games as losses and leave me 4 wins /25 so at least can have the accolade of finishing last and people glancing at the leaderboards will think I'm **** terrible.

How much fun was that last night? Never seen the PLO8 DYM's so busy, must have been a record night, & the banter was superb all evening.
An astonishing 16 games ran @ £11, not long ago we would not see that many in a week.
The bizarre thing, is that we were all chasing that WG Promo, & really, we had almost no chance v the NLH boys with their huge liquidity.
Fun times, enjoyed it immensely. Clocked up 46 games, & managed to turn a nice bit of profit in the process. Lovely job.
No poker for me tonight, am working, hostilities & banterage recommence tomorrow.

Best winning streak has been 5, which I achieved twice.
