    Maybe Orford should spend some of his winnings getting rid of that Frankenstein haircut?

    Thought I'd repost this here..Just incase anyone missed it ;)


    TIKAY:

    As to Orford, well, it pains me to say it. But he played it technically perfect, from start to finish. Like you, & many, many, others, I Railed him from 3 or 4 Tables out, & he was Billy Low Stack all the time. down to as little as 4 or 5 x BB's several times, he clung & clung, just waited & waited, tikay stylee, for the right spots to push. I don't buy this "you HAVE to shove regardless when down to 10 x BB" nonsense - you MUST wait for the "right spots", it takes great nerve & patience, & Rich did it brilliantly. In fact, technically, I think he played it absolutely perfectly, he did not make one mistake, or miss one "spot".

    There, I've been nice to him. That's the last time. Ever.

    Lisa,

    Thats bang out of order.

    I deliberately Posted it on another Thread, where few would see it, & then you go & stick it on here, where Lord Gloat, aka Lord Smirk, aka Frankenstein Haircut, will see it.

    Expect a hard time on Saturday night young Lady.

    1.45am and can I sleep? Can I ever! Absolutely thrilled and a little bit in shock! Thankyou to everyone who railed me tonight- really, really appreciate it. And thanks to the other players in the game who were great fun and played great poker too. Got off to a flier in the Open but ended up one of the short stacks from about 100 players left down to 8th. Completely card dead for ages but just hung in there till I got a couple of nice breaks and then everything went right on the final table. What can I say? I've just seen a pig fly past the window along with Elvis, and the Loch Ness Monster. The moon also appears to be a healthy blue colour! Chuffed to pieces- and cheers to the Sky Poker community. You're the best!
