Evening all Really wishing I was at UKPC but wasn't meant to be this time. Thanks to Angel and Misty and Chris updates though I don't feel as left out as I could have done lol. Thanks for the birthday wishes btw - think it might have been the millions of candles needed that started the fire alarm in Notts. I've been running good for a change today. Managed to win a £12 sat to the 9pm £55 BH game and then managed to sat into the roller from 3 buy ins of a £2.40 frenzy game, and then also won £110 from the 6pm freeroll when 3 seats were on offer. Hope it continues to later! Best of luck to Chris (RPSCA the dog man lol) as he's still going well in UKPC tourney. Also best of luck to all TPTers this evening - run golden all xxx (and yes Chilling - that includes you lol) Posted by IrishRose
Tikay started that one with the dog bloke thing lol Just easier to say it that way so knew who it would be. Run golden all. Wish I was still there, tbh I really didn't want to leave yesterday as was having so much fun. Next time will be different as am sure you will be there again rose. Even if I never make it to play live at DTD again, I am sure I will be returning to rail the crew.

Lmao Shame couldn't have stayed longer but sitter needed sleep and had to rush back for the kids. Next time be different. Run golden all. Not long now till proper Internet back on.

Nothing wrong with being a Bolton fan !!!
UKPC sadly didnt go so well for me playing wise this time, but it was so FANTASTIC to see everyone again, both new and old.( too many to mention coz this is an essay!!!)
Just for the records, i was playing quite tight for the first few levels and it was my first time playing 9-Max, remaining around or just above the starting stack of 50K. I'd binned a couple of middle Pocket pairs (77 & 88)pre flop, having opened, when big raises came in (which was a mistake I think, I should have at least called and seen the flop).
My first chance came Level 7/8 (Blinds 250/500 ante 75) when shorty (down to just under 9K) (a nice Chinese lad studying Politics at Sheffield Uni and living on Eccy Rd where I used to live)on my immediate right, shoved and I had pokt 9's. I called, he showed AK......he hit K on turn.
A few hands later he opened with bet of 1500, I had pokt J's so raised it to 3K, everyone folded and he shoved his now 18K stack. I thought about it and decided to call (as I had about 38K) to try and get myself moving, he showed AAces and I couldn't find a Jack ......Oooops. It's always easy afterwards but I possibly could/should have waited for a better spot as it truly is a marathon not a sprint.
Now things werent looking too clever, but having seen him move from 9K to 36K(with my chips) I know I only needed a couple of good hands. Sadly they never arrived.
My exit hand was with 87o after a min raise, which I called on the button to see a flop,and SB (Dooobs from Sky Poker, whose real nice Yorkie from Bradford orig. and knows TiKay really well)called too. Flop came 8h-5d-4d, Doobs checked, Chinese lady checked, so I shoved, Dooobs called, C.Lady shoved too(30K)with 8d-Qd(oh dear) and Doooobs called too(pokt 4's). Turn was 5h, and flop Ac. I was looking and at first thought I'd escaped with a chop(8's & 5's with Ace) til it dawned on me Doooobs had FH.......sigh. Journey over ......til the next time.
Fortunately the bar isn't very far away, and the fun began('til 4.30am, Pizzas delivered to hotel 5.15am). It's just brilliant been among like minded people, who enjoy Poker, and don't take losing out too seriously...... and everyone has a good exit story, and for those still in there fighting.....really WELL DONE and GOOD LUCK especially to Andrew1947 (the Elderly Maniac as I believe he is now known)who with POKEY and Will(HANSON)looked after me on my 1st trip last Aug.........now he does have many a good exit story. I just hope and pray he doesn't have to use it !!!!!
A wonderful time once again, and so many thanks to SKY POKER (nice to meet TiKay properly this time, and Dave from cust.services) for putting it on with DTD. Can't wait for the next one, and as everyone who has made it to UKPC before knows, it's something all players on here should try for.....you would LOVE IT.
Most of all though, Massive thanks to my buddy Will(HANSON) who once again looked after me....defo my bruvva from another muvva, so glad you had a great time too, and had a very nice CASH win. You deserve it buddy
Just wanted to say a huge TYYYYYYYYYYY to my railers tonight in the Las Vegas satellites. Darkangel via text/pm and Misty, JJ, Chilling, Doyle and others in the chat box.
Didn't manage to do anything useful in DTD games - but have managed win seats to both Vegas Semi finals for the weekend.
Glad all had a good time at UKPC. Hopefully be on to play the team game tomorrow night, been too long Posted by Matt237
Wayheyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy Matty - thought you might have been abducted by your adoptive mother Great to see you back and I'm sure you'll be a force to be reckoned with tomorrow night
Good to hear that most seem to have enjoyed the UKPC, notwithstanding how the results went. I had a really enjoyable couple of days too. I must be getting old, can't keep up with late nights in the bar!
Poker was fun. I had a nice table, including TimmyRaRa and Raffa. Felt like I was holding my own, although had to make a few moves to keep head above water as was pretty much card dead all day. I was determined that I'd not be blinded out of the game, which probably explains a bit of poor play in the final session of the day when I finally got some playable hands. Had back to back AK, each time playing in position against an aggressive player who was raising up most hands.
First time with AK spades, I re-raised, got called by pre flop raised. Hit the K on an all diamond board so put in a big bet to take it down there and then, rather than risk the flop. very next hand I saw AKo so re-raised the same player. Rags on the flop, she re-raises and that's where I should probably have folded. Ended up pretty much pot committed by an all rag river, and tried a hero call with my A high. Sadly she showed QQ.
Very next hand I shoved all in with 55, walked into Aces and that was me done.
Brilliant to see Misty, Angel, Hanson, Poker M, Pokey and loads of the regs. Hoping that they re-run the six-max in the summer so I can have another go!

Great to see you and everyone too Matt. Yes it defo got messy, but was soooo much fun. Great to hear peoples stories, and good to see my friend Andrew(Elderly Maniac) finish 7th for £23K....... Can't wait for August to see everyone again,as I'm sure they will run the 6-Max.
WELL DONE to TREV in DTD1 last night, I did think you were going to win it and Roseeee in getting the seats to the weekends Las Vegas semi's, and all who cashed last night,
I won £14.40 for bubbling my only sat. the £3.2K Vegas micro.
GOOD LUCK to everyone at the tables tonight...... and as ALWAYS......
Ummmm Mr PokerTrev sir - will the TPT game be in the lobby for tomorrow night? Think it's usually the first Wednesday in the month. Posted by IrishRose
FLYINGDAGG INVITATIONAL IS IN THE LOBBY 8pm START Posted by WHEELS7161
Ty Wheels - much appreciated as it had gone straight out of my head even though I remembered yesterday lol.
My son managed to crash his car today and aquaplained along the dual carriage way . Luckily he's not hurt - just shaken up. His car didn't fare so well though - £1800 of damage which he's going to pay for himself as he'd prefer to build up insurance no claims as his excess is £500 anyway. He didn't hit any other cars - just the guard rail - but somehow managed to damage both the front bumpers and rear bumpers?? A ful 360 degree spin but as I say at least he's ok so now I'm calming down too. Cars can be replaced/repaired but people can't.
As an added incentive tonight for TPTers I'll donate £10 cash to whichever TPT ko's me - or if ko'd by someone else I'll donate £10 to the longest lasting TPTer. So get regging folks!!!
I must apologise to misty as I picked his surname up off the DTD runners and put it in face book.He was in chip lead in a Vegas sat,I wished him gl and mentioned a couple of his relations names for a laugh,and thereafter went all wobbly and got busted lol.Very very sorry mate. He was most surprised as he is not on face book.And no detective work mate,it took 30 seconds.Chatting maybe sometimes not a good thing. glgl in future sats,I'll stay zipped. Posted by chilling
No worries Chill.....I know it was only harmless banter. From where I was I would have won the sat. if I'd have got just a few slightly better cards to call their shoves. Us chatting just happened to coincide with me running bad , 'til the KQ where I had at least 9 outs to win.
Apparently the only wedding photo on D's FB is her Mum and Dad who have sadly both passed away.
Good Luck mate.....I'll see you soon I'm sure...(:D}
EDIT......Ooooops.......... forgot TPT game and I'm too late to reg.......sigh

Nice update, unlucky not cashing this time, but nice to see you had a great time.
I will deffo be trying to qualify for the next one, but sadly on this occasion due to personal issues it was just not to be.
Looking forward to meeting up with everyone again.
2nd for me in DTD1
