4 Premier League games on a Tuesday is great for Sky Bet, but not so much for poker, & MTT traffic was much affected last night, although rather curiously, both Main & Mini did well. And if 4 games last night was bad, tonight there are 5. Time to gird the loins.

Confidence at the poker table can be a fragile thing, & a run of average results can & does affect most of us, & that certainly includes Dazzy, but it all came right last night when he had his best result for a while in winning this. The curious thing is a short run of normal results seems to wipe good results from our memories. Dazzy has some terrific scores on his CV - this was the third time this year he's won this one, and last year he won a Summit, a Mini Major, a UKOPS, 2 Reloads, and was 5th in a £220 entry UKOPS HR. So he knows he can really play. I wonder what a psychologist would make of poker players? And what poker site will be the first to offer an hour on a trick-cyclists couch as a Promo?
Editor's note; To be clear, in the 'photo below, that's not Dazzy on the couch.

Flamenco40 is mainly a cash-game player & until the last week has never once had a mention, but that's all changed now it seems. In the last week they made 3 FT's - £1k BH, Mini Marksman & Quickdraw - & now not only adds a fourth, but wins it. Congrats Flam.

WeeChicken earned £264 - certainly not a poultry sum - for taking the £1k Rebuy BH. I may be mistaken, but I seem to recall he played SPT Glasgow a few months back.

I can neither spell nor pronounce the winner's alias, & he hidden on Sharky, so not much I can say, except that he had a cracking double last night - Main & MidEx.
In 3rd was Ramoerrr, who has done remarkably well lately, including a win in Sheriff three nights ago as well as taking the Sunday Major 10 days back.
Eggy just about scrambled into 4th.

Now that's a much better alias. And if you don't know what Doo Wop is, there's a taster below. Incidentally, if you saw the recently released magnificent film "The Irishman" (Scorsese), this track featured.

By Mega standards a very decent FT, with the likes of tonyp, extramayo & aynaricol all involved.

Good old Whizzy was 2nd, with that man Ramoerrrr in 6th.

You're not wrong, poker is a fickle thing. It's amazing how a turn of a single card can turn it into either the best or the worst game in the world. Add in the all the emotion involved, and it's easy to see why a lot of players can go through confidence mishaps affecting their immediate results. It's all part of the fun of poker though.
