In Response to Re: Re; satellites : Many thanks for reply ( and Bigred later ) . It is as I half-suspected and has much to do with my feelings of being the underdog as I get further in. I shall persist. Posted by tiercel
Just thought Id let you know I qualified for tonights Primo for £2.64 and busted out in 12th place with maybe a dodgy call with A T after a raise from the chip leader, I guessed maybe he had a pair but anyway I was so short stacked I thought it was worth the risk and ended up winning £136.85 .
Hi vinnybhoy, Welcome to the forums, i suggest if you post in the poker clinic section you shall get a good response. Obviously tikay will be able to help too but im sure there are a few ways to play it. i personally would bump it up to 500 ish, no need to shove with AQ & i personally wouldn't limp as you want to narrow down how much your against. Also Tikay i suggested a while ago more £5.50 tourneys(NON-REBUYS), could you give someone a nudge or kick for me as between 7-12 there is rarely any other then rebuys just a standard one which they have at 5pm etc would be good Many Thanks John Posted by YOUNG_GUN
Hi tikay, i know your busy just copying over to see if you can give people a nudge on the highlighted
hi tkay any chance of running a £10 pound tournament where you wait for a 1000 entrys and then give a date start time i think a lot of people might be intrested.
If you want to make poker as a living how much do you have to deposit? Posted by Locket26
The deposit doesnt really matter try joining a poker strategy site to show you how to get through the levels and build your bankroll winning the money to turn pro is the only way to go.

sorry to be so dump how do i use my free £5.50 it said on stt or mtt games what are they and how do i get on them Posted by Pixiekid
Hi Pixiekid, and welcome to Sky Poker & the forum. An STT is a single table tournament better known as a sit & go, and an MTT is a multitable tournament. I'm not 100% sure of the rules on the new player bonus so I am not sure if you have to use the whole bonus in one go, or whether you can spread it over multiple games, customer care (details at the bottom of the page) should be able to advise you more on that.
Good luck at the tables.
Steve

Morning Mr Osprey.
I'm pretty good at reading between the lines, do I sense a hint of dissatisfaction in your Post?
The thread is called "Ask tikay", & a lot of people help me answer FAQ's & technical stuff. If you have a specific question, please let us know.
In the interim, I thought this may interest you.
Did you know that the Osprey, which, I assume you take your alias from, is one of only two raptors (the other is the owl) who have a reversible outer toe? This means that when they swoop to catch prey - always fish, in the case of the osprey - they can clasp the slippery fish better, by using two toes behind, & two in front.
Another interesting Osprey fact is that all their toes are the same length.
PS - Ripping off working man? I've been a working man for 47 years, have yet to have a single day off sick in that entire time, & I currently work 18 hours a day. My dignity is wholly intact, thank you. And yours?
what level can I avoid donks? money is tight and I've been getting told I'm doing ok by some decent players...supersnedd ... gary qqq and thorpey, I've done a bit of homework since I blew a load of dosh just having fun in 30p games so now I like playing a deep stack or 1 or 2 quid scary but I still find my nice well chosen cards getting battered by some rag ace, should I play less often at higher stakes or should I just go back to the books for a few weeks and learn some more?
I suppose what I'm asking is how do I find my level? I don't mind losing every now and then and I don't want to walk all over anyone just a good considered game, I've had some really nice games at 1 or 2 quid but it's cheap and can get a few nutters.

I absolutely promise to get up to date with replies tonight, or tomorrow morning. It's been a bit fraught, on & offline, of late, my apologies.
Good luck at the tables.

Just wondering, what did you put your £10 bet on, to get into the 12freeroll.
And did you win on your deal/no deal game.
what level can I avoid donks? money is tight and I've been getting told I'm doing ok by some decent players...supersnedd ... gary qqq and thorpey, I've done a bit of homework since I blew a load of dosh just having fun in 30p games so now I like playing a deep stack or 1 or 2 quid scary but I still find my nice well chosen cards getting battered by some rag ace, should I play less often at higher stakes or should I just go back to the books for a few weeks and learn some more?
