Just noticed in the Heads-Up lobby. £5 No Limit O8 I genuinely think Sky are missing out by not doing this with the DYMs too. Obviously keep the real PLO8, but I'd wager NLO8 DYMs would be popular too. I'd play them on occasion, as I have a feeling they'd be hilarious and proper shove-fests. Given the right seated players, it'd be hard to imagine a game getting past level 2. Posted by Macacgirl1
It would be hard to imagine Tikay ever getting to play a hand.
Please keep the updates coming in. I find it interesting as to how people are getting on. Before this started, my own prediction was that the results would range from 6ish to 21ish. I know I've run that bad and equally that good ,over the course of 25 games in the past and suspect most here have too. What with it being a sprint rather than a marathon, absolutely nowt would surprise me. I am keen to see how accurate my results prediction would be though. ps. What's happened to Talon, does he still play? Posted by Macacgirl1
Yep, saw Kaggy too, same table as your good self I think.
JJJ7 Brilliant.
Two lippy kids were getting all lippy kiddy in the chat-box yesterday, they're in for it today.
And, just because I turned a green polyester sleeping bag, (the mummy hooded type) into a jump suit with legs, does not mean I am common. It means I am warm. I have to admit, I did think mr mac was funny though, when he said I looked like a marrow.
Whilst on the subject of marrows, he's going to watch kickball today. Can someone (who isn't mentally challenged) please explain to me the logic behind sitting in the freezing cold and rain for two hours, to watch (apparently and in name only) adullts kick a ball? If it was the world kickball final between blackpool and germany i'd understand, but every couple of weeks going to watch the same thing? I genuinely don't understand.

FYP.
It was polyester. You can't get more common than polyester. I only wear pure silk. Shirts, ties, socks, knickers, everything.
Would love to see you deal with the Lippy Kiddy's. Fingers crossed I'm on the same table.
Note to self - when planning to run good in a comp that you really love - play the game as you normally play it and with the people you think you have some sort of handle on...... So what do I do - I check out last years winner and decide to follow suit and raid the 60p and £1.15 tables - only to be met by SIX people playing erratically and unpredictably!!!!! result lose 4 out of the first 5. Finally come to my senses and return to the haven of £3.30 tables in order to be the only erratic and unpredictable player on the table - thankfully now back to 6 wins out of 12!! Possibly a bit too late to storm up the table on this occasion but next time this wonderful comp is run I will be myself - whoever that is!!!

Hi mate, I find that it is a totally different game at the lower levels, and it definitely takes a different skillset to play at those levels.
You would think that with looser players, these microstakes tables should be easy, but this is far from the case. Indeed, most of my losses in this competition were at the 60p level. It does open your eyes up however to the fact that any 4 cards can, and often do, win.There are some very good players at the lower levels, and some good banter too, but there are some very loose players indeed.
I find that the £3.30 and above games, which are populated by the better players, have a different feel to them. Players less frequently make mistakes, know when to bet and employ better bet sizing, plus they know how to play their spots.
I don't know if my game is good enough to constantly play at the higher levels, maybe one day I'll commit to trying 100 games at £.30 and see how I fare.
Being a bankroll nit, I've never tried to play at one of the higher levels for a sustained number of games. I reckon I make more mistakes than a lot of the regulars, but I am willing to give 100 games a go this month and see how it goes.
Above figures might be wrong, BR was only up a little and although i lost a small MTT and a 6 max I may be slightly out with the win/losses. I'm sure someone will correct if its serious!

I must admit I love No-Limit Omaha, both regular Hi and Hi/Lo combinations, even though you would have thought it wouldn't suit my style.

We saw Kagawa, too. No sign of Hotwheals though.

mmmchips is very good with those types, too.

anyone with ss able to look at my dym nl stats and see where I lose most please?
Played 15 won 10 I think. Some very interesting games, lots of food talk and not a single mention of concrete.
A good evening.
