    Seasons Greetings Richard and Redmond


    Best Present - an original hand drawn portrait from my two year old niece including purple hair and red eyes
    Worst Present - An envelope from my best mate, on which was written "Guaranteed to improve your poker" inside was a second envelope with the words I've seen how bad you play with your eyes open" Inside was a pair of sun reader goggles and a blind fold!

    The truth hurts! they probably will improve my game!

    Good luck to all the regulars in the Main Event!!!!

    Best was a Led Zeppelin DVD, just called Led Zeppelin over 5 hours of remastered concert footage, my son bought me. Worse was when me and my brother got matchimg  KNITTED jackets when I was about 13. They were horrendous like a tweed pattern. Good luck with the show love the UKOPS series but only in the mini.

    Hey rich and redmond,

    Took your advice and went for the all-in and won a seat for £3 - unbelieveable jeff!!!  Never play in these tournements as they are well out of my bankroll but hopefully even 1 head pays for my poker for the month!!!

    Cheers

    D96

    Regarding the hand just shown with the straight flush, I think if you know you're against a good player, you have to fold because you know the other player is only shoving with the A diamonds or a straight flush, so if you have the Ad yourself, you have to put the opponent on a straight flush.

    Worst (or strange) Xmas pressie?  Well, I mended an old neighbour's fence just before Xmas last year and she bought me a pressie. It was a Chinese Juggling Ball!  Yes! ball, singular.  Having mastered one I've dropped hints to her that I'm ready to move up to TWO!  BTW my wife thinks the old dear thought it was a "chocolate orange"  - (whatever that is!! ) lol

    Evening gents,

    Hope you had a great Christmas.

    Thanks for showing the hand! Good to see Rich guessing the hand incorrectly...if only I had been playing him!

    Best Xmas pressie... after a few hints and links emailed to book selling websites, my daughter took the hint and bought me the poker book that I have wanted for a long time.

    Read a chapter on Xmas day ... then {admittedly after a few sherries} entered a few tornies  ... 

    Won 2 and came 8th in the third ... best winnings for a while

    Told daughter this must be one big coincidence but thanks for the book

    Daughter now insist on 50% of winnings  ????

    Best present I got this year was a live tournament entry worth about 300 for a tournament in London today...which I crashed out of an hour ago :S Was worth the entry fee to listen to carlo citrone sat two to my right cursing the online poker gods.
    worst present was a power rangers onesie

    Hi again guys....one of my friends is playing UKOPS main tonight. He isn't the best tournament player but does try hard. It would mean a lot if you could show one of his hands. He plays as TommyD on the site

    Thanks

    Matt
