    We’ve worked things out well
    He’s waking up with his Mum on Christmas day but then spending the rest of the day with me.
    Then he’ll spend Boxing Day with his Mum

    Unlike with my birthday on Friday hasn’t told me what my Christmas present is yet.

    We had some deep and meaningful conversation on Friday when i took him to school

    “Do you want to know what your Birthday present is Daddy?

    “No, it’ll be nice just to open it and find out then”

    “Ok. It’s socks”

    Then

    “If i threw my taggy blanket out the window and into that field and a cow pooed on it would Mummy have to wash it”
    “Yes”

    Morning people

    A bit of a chapter in my life came to an end yesterday which was very sad. A good part of it was my fault though. We live and learn.

    There was some good stuff though :)
    I ordered a new car. Most happy with it

    2 weeks today until Rooney makes his debut for the mighty rams and we begin our march to automatic promotion

    I’ve now watched the Leeds documentary. The last episode was fabulous.


    I played a bit of poker last night
    Not much went right so happy to come away with only a £15 loss

    I thought i might get out of it in my last mtt, the £11 9.30bh

    With 10 left i opened 10s and got shoved on by K4
    A 10 on the flop seemed good
    He won ;)

    With 8 left i shoved 10s and got a call
    A 10 on the flop seemed good
    He won ;)

    Don’t like 10s

    It was good to hear this morning that old Tom won it

    "I ordered a new car."

    Why? You only just got the last one?

    I made the mistake of doing a 24 month one last time.

    I normally do 36

    I'm a lot older than you and even I don't drive a Volvo. Does yours come with indicators? The ones in and around Bexhill don't.

    Very true

    I’m played a bit last night and it went ok
    Made a bit of money

    What are we doing here?
    45 left in the main
    The first shove is by a short stack who lost a big hand just before when he called off with A5
    The 2nd is from a player who seems to have a wide range

    Do we go with it or wait?

    Hi Paul
    Me? If it’s a bounty hunter I’d snap call, the only bad outcome is losing to the one with a ‘ wide range’
  • mumsiemumsie Member Posts: 7,939
    I think I'm folding when I'm happy and playing my A game and calling when it's late and I'm grumpy, do it depends 😁.
  • EnutEnut Member Posts: 3,477
    45 left, so outside the money?
    If so I'm folding, to be honest I'm probably folding anyway, I could be up against two players with 89 and I'd still lose to the 88x flop. Hate poker. Hate Christmas. There, see if you can out grump that!

    It's a close one. Depends if the short stack has a big bounty or not for me. You could be in great shape against 2 underpairs, you could be in awful shape against the opposite. If they both have overcards then you only have roughly 30% equity, although you are only concerned about losing to the bigger stack obv.

    Toss a coin, if its heads then call. Tails then fold.

    When you fold and Philo83 turns over 98s

    Yeah, I don’t think that it’s a big mistake whichever way you go on this one.
    I probably don’t call enough in these spots.

    As Tom says, winning the side pot is decent enough.
    The bounty was worth around £20 for the guy I cover

    I did call and I did lose the hand but I’m happy enough with my decision. The run out wasn’t great but I can’t do anything about that so it’s ok.

    This bit of chat from a while ago still makes me chuckle. It may not be that hard to work out who it is 😉

    See, I said you should have folded!

    Decent but frustrating night

    Dyms went ok

    Played 5 mtts
    Went deep in the £3 rebuy but came 15th

    Made the final table of the £11 9.30bh
    Lost a big hand for a decent head with 10s in the bb v a button shove

    5 left i shoved KQ on the button for 10 bigs and KJ called in the bb and hit

    £80 up so it’s alright
