just read this from a post you made on penguin7,s thread on turning to cash from tourneys - you wrote
I'm not quite so sure that you should mix cash, & Tourneys much, though, as the two are very different, & require a completely different mindset.
What do you mean by a completely different mindset?
ps - just read your above post on watching TV while playing 3 tables. Spot on - I,ve just recently (last 2 or 3 weeks) started turning the TV off, unless 865 is on of course, but found it helps my concentration especially in cash games , not so much in deep stack early stages, but definately helps overall

Hi MP,
Pretty much as Penguin put it - when playing a £220 MTT with nearly £4k up top, it's hard to get the right mindset to "grind" 15p-30p cash, where a sensible aim, one assumes, is to nick one or two buy-ins per night, or session, so, £30 or £60.
Do that 5 or 6 nights a week, & that'd be whizzo. A competent cash game regular would, or should, be extremely happy to achieve that.
The MTT player is trying to bink £4,000 in one go, & he's invested SEVEN BI @ 15p-30p so to do. And he is trying to win the equivelant of 140 BI's!
It's just such a lopsided approach to try to do both at the same time.
That, of course, is aside from the fact that the mental approach to the 2 Formats - Cash & MTT's - is totally different. We play the 2 things completely differently - or should.
Now, moving on.....
You still have a freebie TSP Classic entry to use. Any of next week's nights suit you? - this is the schedule next week......
I may be being completely dumb here, but i can never seem to see the TSP tourneys on the Tournament lobby. I have looked at 21.00 which is when they start and i can't see them anywhere? Great show last night too!

I thought this was an STT as mentioned on front page of The Apprentice Thread
A reminder from your last PM
No worries Paul, & again, apologies for the delay, the fault was mine.
I'll try & find a night when we can get several of the TSP-ers playing, then get back in touch with you.
You did ask me to give you 3 nights when i,m available. i replied "any but friday" , but any night is ok for me - I can work round this
I,ll reply back by Pm so you,ve got the history of it to re-jog your memory

Correct - 100% correct - my apologies.
Got your PM - thank you.
To quote your PM - "a £10 STT with Gliterbabe, lJAMESl, LOLUFOLD, Dantb10, & LML". And IrishRovers original note "time & date to suit both parties".
I'll start again, shall I? I'll write to them all this weekend, & see if I can round them all up on the same night.
You are not being a pain, at all, my bad, not yours.
I get these things to sort daily, in all sizes & shapes, & sometimes it gets a little confusing, keeping up with them all.
By way of apology, & in addition to the prize you have won, & I will try to organise for soonest, you can have a free Entry to a TSP Classic on any night you choose. Name your night. That one I can sort personally, rather than me toing & froing notes to & from half a dozen others, so it's "instant".
Cheers Tikay thats very good of you anyday for the TSP will do (I suppose its to l8 for tonight?) and as for the STT i,m in no rush - Just wanted to get it clarified Thx again Posted by MP33
Hey MP, how do i go about getting free entries into tourneys? lol
Hi TK. Have you any Idea If It confirmed that John Tabatabai will be playing on Sky any time soon? Have really enjoyed the shows with the pros - Nick Persaud, Ian Frazer etc. (have to admit tho, JT Is my fav!) Thanks. Tia x
In Response to Re: Ask Tikay? : Not heard back yet! I think there is a good technical reason why this will not happen, to be honest, but let's wait & see what they say. Posted by Tikay10
OK
im not on here much, so i will just keep my fingers crossed, so if i dont reply, its not because im rude :-)

Hi TD,
Yes, we hope to have John back on Sky Poker, Ch 865, again, as soon as Diary dates permit, ditto the other recent high-profile Guests we have been fortunate to secure.
Another "JT" will be on the Show this coming Thursday - Julian Thew. He's a bit special, too - only guy ever to win TWO GUKPT's, AND an EPT. Top bloke, too.
As soon as another date for John Tabatabai is confirmed, Mother or I will let you know. Assuming I remember......
