In regards with the chk/fold button I use it a lot because I have a habit of wanting to win every pot, especially when the opponent appears to show weakness, so by automatically folding in the face of a bet I'm not tempting to do anything tricky with my 5 high!!
How about a new award for guys that have been plyaying for years, never won a tourney and keep playing just 'cos they enjoy the game and the banter. 10-20 quid each month for the past 8 years or so. Perhaps Eur500 to their roll and an hour online with an expert (Richard is obviously the person foremost in mind) and to encourage other BIG FISH to keep lining the pockets of the more serious player?
If you are going to bubble something make it a big one, so whenever anyone wants to take you through a bad beat again you can shut them up quite easily, saying... there was a time i bubbled $17k package to a huge poker mtt in the Carribean in January...
Not that that would happen to anyone we know... sigh

Yawn Greggers.......I just bubbled Santas Grotto!!!! Obv more of a bubble than yours!
My tip is that when in doubt always go for the aggresive option. Example if i have been playing on multiple tables and cant remember how the action has gone on the flop in a hand when we are on the turn best option is just to bet.
have to disagree with you there when you say the pocket 3s have to fold ,how when the blind was going to be on them next,its a call allday,he had no chips!!!!
when playing live take a pen and paper when going for a break and especially during a chip up write down the number of chips you have. Place it on top of your chips and hold it down with a chip guard.
Mistakes happen in chipping up and a little visual reminder will help and give a hint to the tournament director at this stage.
Its your word against the TD so do everything you can to protect the chips, you have just fought to win.

Always try to find out your opponent’s hobbies:
If it’s origami – FOLD
If it’s campanology – they are a RINGER
If it’s philately – STAMP them out immediately
A numismatist – will take your money
If it’s taxidermy – get the **** out of there!!!!!!!!!!!!
Live tip : Always raise the plum on his BB when they are playing poker on their iPad ...
