ok a few points, james - this is total player and is different, the challenge stands versus all aslong as my bankroll stands. I don't fear anyone and will play anyone, I'm not trying to avoid anyone, I will play anyone in the competition. I hope that is clear. I won't quit, I'll play until I have all their money or they have mine or they quit me. yipeeyappee aka TPYipeeyappee Posted by YIPEEYAPEE
There you go dude Sparce has accepted in the main TP thread!
I'm not having a go at you, I'm just saying you always have said if someone is better or your off your game you will quit them. Just seems pointless posting this if your not going to battle till the death. I don't understand why dohhh has felt the need to defend you either, no one dislikes you?! It seems to be made a mountain out of a molehill. Once someone comes on here defending everyone it makes things appear into a witch hunt which it most definitely isn't!
Me especially, I think fairplay and respect the fact you wanna play good players HU and prove to the community you are a worthy contender for the prize. Just play it out.. thats all I'm saying don't make excuses and I'll have no problems you making these post all the time. Like I said If I do well this stage and we both go through I'll happily play you with a bigger roll.

Because at the time he made the post, I was in the competition. Now, Im still in the competition. Believe it or not
Thats why i read it. I decided to reply to it, as I thought the guy was getting a hard time unfairly, thats my opinion.
It clearly states in the title, "TP" so why most of these people are replying, nevermind having a go at the guy is beyond me.
Anyway looks like me u and YY will be seeing quite abit of eachother. Gl
Springs, my comment, was in reference to the Discussion title, and the challenge itself. The discussion is a direct challenge aimed at TP'ers.
There are at least 3 peope who arent in the competition, who have offered to take up the challenge. One of whom, wanted to play a ring game. Non-TP'ers are of course, entitled to read and reply, but to accept the challenge? the title says it all.
Total player is about the community coming together to choose a player to represent us at the World Series of Poker. All of the community is involved, so we all have the right to discuss and debate any issues that may arise. After all this competition has a democratic conclusion; it is up to the sky community, by the way of a vote, who ultimately wins. To say non Total Players cant get involved is not only ridiculous but also extremely elitist.
James was right, If you come to the defence of somebody where it isn't necessary to do so, it gives the false impression that we were out to attack Yippee - something which simply isn't true. We ere simply just discussing the flaws in Yippee's challenge; which is our right to do so.
Recently as 1 of the Total Players who will be playing in the next round, I have received an email from sky with certain challenges for Bootcamp Phase 2. One of these is to play more cash. I just want to issue a challenge to all fellow Total Players. I WANT TO PLAY YOU HU. I'll be sitting and i'll be waiting on the nights Phase 2 begins.

am i missing something here where is the flaw in this challenge ?
In Response to Re: TP-YipeeYappee Challenge : Good post agboy, this is my post [c and peed] under the heading PTP tonight ,it is more relevant to this discussion. PTP TONIGHT.... Is a massive undercard to tonights main event, I too cannot wait for the 10pm reveal by "THE AMERICAN" , Mr Tuchman good luck Sir. If time appears to stand still in anticipation of 10pm please come and join me on the tables from 7pm. go to "find a player" input Ed Gid, So Yippee has certainly sent out a message, this is my take on it....[Check forum post-re. yippee if you haven't seen] If we all had the initial reactions of DOHX6 the world would be a beautiful place, but we haven't so let me try and explain Yippee's opening gambit that appears brash. Firstly he is Scottish. Secondly, his brief for Bootcamp Phase II is to play more cash games against the other Total Players. He started this thread with all good intention of some friendly banter which unfortunately, as can so often happen when you don't have the benefit of face-to-face expression, has led to a misinterpretation of his message. I can understand how some of Yippe's subsequent posts have aggravated some of you, they have aggravated me too! But he was only reacting to the negativity from everyone bar DOHX6, he had good intentions I promise ! Posted by EdGiddins
i believe ed sums up this thread perfectly with above post .
hey all, Sparce has accepted, so looks like we could be going at it on night 1 of Bootcamp Phase2! I want to win this competition so badly i'll be really trying to bring my A game and I'm sure he will to, so sparks could fly,
James, I know what you mean and didn't think for 1 second you were beating on me. We have a pretty good online chat / forum relationship when we talk and I have a lot of respect for your game. I'd go as far to say, I think your top 5 on the site. With regard to history where I've stated I'd sit out if I felt a game was limited value, I agree for sure, but in this competition it's really different, as we have a limited bankroll with which to prove we should be the one who goes to vegas to represent the sky community. If we lose it, we lose it, but if we don't take risks we might not show people what we can do. To illustrate my point, some players in phase 1 made good profit in relation to the £500 starting bank roll, but are no longer with us. In real life if I never quit someone I risk my entire monetary wealth, (if I kept redepositing) I don't think I'm the worlds best poker player, so say I kept redpositing against Cole South, I'd probably eventually lose everything and I would successfully prove to myself that he's better than me. (I know this last point is debatable, and there's a good chance he'd might quit me after 1000 hands).
after rereading this before i hit post, it's inevitable someone will say sparce could fly, but that's unlikely so let me quash that right here,

correct me if im wrong but didn't someone say somewhere on the TP thread that if you lose your bankroll, it doesn't necessarily mean your out of the running
what is meant by sparce could fly?? as in leave?? I wont do that Look forward to playing u yippee. Respect for offering the challenge. Pokertainment at its finest
No m8, i said sparks could fly and then preempted the inevitable comment, plus didbn't mean leave. Also can we do an omaha hu table, so we got 2nl 1o, ?

I take it by that it means you don't want my / our (or as you so graciously put it, "these people") support / railing /vote at the end?
Bite ya tongue DOHH!
