Tikay - How long did you last in the tourney at Luton last night? Posted by SoLack
Pfft, YBA.
It was a nightmare, I've rarely exited a 10k jobbie so fast. It started at 5.30, & I was back on the M1 by 6.10.....
It's quite tough at Luton in the early Levels, then it eases up, so I usually Sit-Out the first 4 or 5 Levels. But I started mixing it up a bit, & won the first 4 hands on the spin, one when I'd Called a R in Position with 5-3 of Hearts & saw a 4-6-x two heart Flop.
But then it all went tiddley-pong in one hand.
How would any of YOU play this one?
Blinds are now 50/100, decent structure, 45 min clock, & we all began with 10,000. Nobody Passes to a Standard Raise at this stage, & folks resotr to 50/50/50/900 to get big Pairs through, which is almost ponitless.
It's gone 325, 325, 325, 325, & I have 2-2, both black. The Button & Blinds are still to act. Call.
We see a flop of 2-3-10, two hearts.
Checked to me, I consider Potting it, but Dave Johnson has the Butrton, he's guarahteed to take a pop at it - lets let him, then I have the leverage to bet it properly & price everyone out.
Sure enough, Dave bets - but only 1,100. OK, I make it 3,300 to go.
Dave looks taken aback, & starts with the speech play. I know, 100%, he's gonna Pass. He'd not mess about if he were ahead.
Dave then says "I think you are weak - I'm all-in".
Sheesh. It was 4,100 more to Call, & it went in pretty quickly. No choice now, as I am convinced my hand is good.
He flips 4-6 of hearts, for the Gutterball STR8 Draw & FD. He binked the 5 on the Turn, leaving me with 1,200, which I gambled & lost PDQ.
I was gutted, but I think it pretty much plays itself, for both of us. With hindsight, I bet the Flop, let HIM be the Re-Raiser, then I can set HIM in, & that plays different, but I doubt he ever Passes, & why should he? (He's about a 2/1 dog on that Flop, but he got the shove in first).
So I made a 'phone Call & got a friend to enter me into the £22 & £110 Deepies on Sky Poker, & then got stuck in a 90 minute jam on the M1, & missed the first 90 minutes of the £110 thing & 75 minutes of the £22-er. I recovered in both, but fell just short of the cash in both, too.
Howdy Tikay, heres a quicky question for you. In a recent friendly game we came to a little bit of a situation, i would be grateful if you could clear it up for me, now what happend was there was 2 players left in the pot. Early position raises All in, late postion calls, now the early postion mucks his cards. Now does the person in late position have to show his cards, or is the hand deemed over on account the early position player has mucked ?. Posted by hobby2k
The Caller - in this case the only guy left in the Hand - HAS to show to claim the pot here, IMO. It can be argued both weys, but I don't see the problem in showing.
I'm assuming they DID first see a Flop, Turn & River? And it was a Cash-game?
If a Tourney, & the money went in Pre, or on the Flop or Turn, the Dealer should not deal the Flop/Turn/River until BOTH Hands are OTB.
when was the first hornby train produced?? Posted by 35suited
No idea, Victorian times I would guess.
The famous "00" - the Rolls-Royce of Model Railways - was introduced just before WW11.
It was in the same ownership as Meccano for many years, & was eventually taken over by a toy & model railway maker everyone oveer the age of 40 would know - Tri-ang.
I just wanted to ask what the odds are on a royal flush on the board? This happened to me when i was playing an mtt guaranteed game on monday 16th. Wish I had kept the hand I.D. so that it could be shown. Amazing to see naturally it was a split pot
tikay - im gonna be at Luton on Thursday for the rebuy starting at 8.30 and the APAT is in town at 2.30...if I turn up at say 5/6 do you think that there will be cash games running or are APAT members massive nits who only play tournies????

I would think the Cash Games would be buzzing - if Nina/Niall can spare the Dealers.
APAT-ers coming from Mainland Europe, Luton will be almost taken over by APAT for 4 days!
They do have a smattering of nits, & a good few LAG's, too. And Mo Muse will probably be there.....

I played him on 200nl last night. He had 3bet me PF and I flat with TT.
I flopped a set on a Q T 3rainbow board and he check folded.

Yes, not being able to see the Board Cards must be a trifle irritating, I can see that.
On the little box for Seat Rotation, there is a "CLOSE" button - have you clicked that?
I can't really assist to be honest, it's one for the Techies. Perphaps a Post in the "Technical Queries" board might help.
The new '' PRIMO'' on a sunday. ''WOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOO''? The show is live for ''4hrs''. Only one problem ''NOT ENOUGH AIR TIME''.

Not my best night ever......
It'd be just fine it it were in Doncaster, or Wakefield, or even somewhere remotely nice. Railway Stations = the Town's character.

Does that answer the Question?

He started off 1901
