Hi Wacko, some great questions and answers on here. I see you're studying at Northampton Uni, so have you ever been to watch Northampton play? And who do you think should be our new manager? Posted by splashies
Normally, these ITW's last 1 or 2 days, & then die.
This is going incredibly well, & as long as it continues to deliver, & the Wackster does not mind fielding the questions, it'll stay "open for business". It may well last another day or two, we'll see.
Once it reaches a natural conclusion, we'll start ITW # 2, with a new subject.
How lucky did we get with The Wackster as the first subject?
Immense thanks are due to to him on behalf of everyone on the Community, & to everyone who threw him questions, too.
I could not be more pleased with this. We just got a bit better.
At one point i was a few hundred pound down, then i turned it around. I know this feeling way too well lol Glad to see you are making a huge success from MTT's although my question is not sure if its been asked when you hit a downswing is there any specific way you cope with it do you just do your thing and play through it or is there something you specifically do for a couple days or so to take your mind off the game then come back fresh ?? also nice to share a table with you on monday in one of the deepstacks see you on the tables monday maybe in the forum dtd and hopefully in the bigger mtts someday soon when i can get rid of my downswing lol Posted by delaney09
Generally I try play through it. The thing that affects me most is my confidence, if my confidence drops so does my standard of play, i fmy confidence is high then i profit successfully! If downswings are affecting your game then i guess its down to the individual as to what you want to do. I play through downswings, but one thing i would say is stick with the deepies. When your getting ul the best place to go is surely the place where you can get unlucky a number of times and still be in the tournament? So if you are suffering, play cheap deepies, tighten up a little and really concentrate on playing to the best of your ability and your swing should end!

In Response to Re: In The Well, #1. Wacko 90. : You should go because we have a new manager now, Gary Johnson! I remeber about 5 years ago when Hull were in our league. Those were the days! Posted by splashies

haha, oh dear indeed. I have a season ticket with my gf and she cant always make it, so if i have a free ticket il give you a shout. If not it's £19 a game, which IMO is a rip off for league 2 football.

Love it Greg! Your probably wondering why i called the turn I only called to represent something on the river, but with the Q coming it was a really bad board to try and bluff as youd call with the Q or a ten or maybe even an ace, so i decided to give it up Nice bet though

Do you think this thread will affect your success as everyone basically knows your game in fine detail now?
