my question is regarding BB's per 100 hands- 1) what would be an exceptable figure to determine moving up or down the levels and over how many hands would you take this? 2) can you confirm im doing the maths correct.......profit / hands played * 100 / BB = BB's per 100 hands
I note the wholy fair comment that I was behind with replies - guilty as charged, sorry - but I'll try to get back up to date tomorrow (Bank Holiday Monday).
A lot of things happening in my life right now - all good - but there are just not enough hours in the day!

Hi
Unfortunately, tikay cannot access your hand history, could I suggest you copy and paste it to the Poker Clinic section

In Omaha you must use exactly two of your hole cards to make your best hand. Therefore, you have 444QQ as your best hand. Your opponent has 555Q8 as his best hand. Your full house beats his trip 5's.
I would say that you played your hand well since, even though you flopped a full house (and are only losing to 55xx and 54xx), it is very vulnerable to your opponent (or anyone with a 5 in their hand) pairing another card in their hand to make a better full-house. Get your money in as favourite and make your opponent pay for his draw. Also, anyone with an overpair to the board could hit their two-outer to beat you.

hi tikay, yesterday for the first time i made a complaint about foul and abusive language. normally doesnt bother me, but it was ruining a good game and others on the table wanted it reported. spoke to customer care and they were great. just wondering if i will be informed of the outcome. would be nice to know people like that are taken off the site. cheers phil

Hey there Phil,
You can be certain that if reported the team will investigate and take the appropriate action. Unfortunately due to certain restrictions (the data protection act in this case) the 'action' is sensitive account data and therefore has to remain confidential.
Well done for reporting this through the correct channels though Phil and i can assure you the matter will be taken seriously.
Was pleasure playing with you for 40 mins last night, i know you will remember as you usually do with me
Basically i just wanted to see whether they are still doing Team Tikay vs? if so or when the next one comes out how can i be on it? you know i'm good for the seat
Hi John, The next TKO style initiative will be 'Team poker' click here to find out how to get involved. any more questions - just shout. cheers Posted by Sky_Rich
tnx rich, hope it does . know need for them on the site. we all get annoyed , angry and dare i say it a little tipsy ( so i heard). but no one like to see people spout c r a p while playin. phil
First for me on here, Hi all. Kinda of getting tired of getting fished on the low level Tables (4p,8p,10p,20p Big blinds). Would it be a good move to start playing higher blinds than these to get away from them, or should i just swallow my anger and brush the tears away and keep playing these low level tables?
Hi Tk when i came 3rd in the league last thursday i folded JJ on the final table to an all in shove is there any chance you could get the hand and let me know what the other person had as you didnt show it on the tv which i was suprised that you didnt, if you cant no worries. thanks
