Results!

I think it's a mis-perception that donkey players are luckier, they just play a lot more hands that need luck, so hit the lucky flops more often than others who would have already folded.

I probably would have folded the AJ tbh i'm quite tight early in tournaments and then move through the gears, will try and see as many cheap flops as i can while the blinds are small and hope to hit with a small suited connector or something, only insta call all ins early on for me is aces or kings, even holding big slick i would be hesitant in calling an all in.

How did the hand play out? All in pre-flop? If he was on the big blind it would be hard to put him on kings, especially as a lot of people love trying to protect their big blind.

1st hand in this tourney Ego raised to 1/5th of my chip stake and i was holding AQ, thought i was ahead but have a hand that could be dominated as well, folded and Ego showed AJ but even knowing that i still would have folded as i like to be patient

i just read my post above meltdowns, i actually meant:

Best players to play against are players who don't have a clue but think they do


Not that they're the best players they're the fish for any sharks on the hunt

it played out as.... I raised on the button 250 (7000 stack), with his Small blind, he raised 1000 more... and I raised all in... he was very hesitant to call it but did pre-flop, but I went straight in... I play poker hard or nothing... im aggressive in nature.

Thanks for clearing up the mistake... yeah its dead money as far as im concerned... I just have to tighten up my game as I either come last or come 1st and get the reads more often, but that'll come, must play more live poker tbh

Live poker is definetly better than internet, can fish for information or people just flat out give it to you!!

Best that i remember is when i was holding pocket aces and some bloke was asking me how he should play his pocket aces, then an ace appears on the flop so i know he's bullshitting so i said i didn't believe him and raised. 2 hearts on the board and a 7,8 so when he asked what i would do in his position i told him i would protect my hand from possible flushes and straights and move in. So he did, quickest call of the night, he shut up until he was knocked out

Will have to keep an eye out for some live games, Not seen any around Derby, Not really looked though,

Best mess around game I played was with Webby and my dad, My dad ended up VERY short stacked to play the next 5 hands all in without looking at his cards. Yes he went out on the 6th but I was getting worried to say the least

lol lesson i leant from our game dont try and bluff bully with a 10 high!? wot a school boy error that was

I did it twice with fook all on ours. Peopl were playing careful so went for it early. Lucky for me when we all went in I had the full house split with Ross.

Dong tried his bluff when he was heads up, it failed spectacularly ended up with about 10% of the chips after it was 50/50

Very difficult to bluff with fictional money. If it is £1000 or so then its a bit harder to call.

Which is why this is harder that real games!!

Although saying that i bluffed and lost big on a few cash games before, that's the problem when you have a side bet that anyone who wins holding 7 2 wins £200 of everyone at the table

Round 2 table 2 results

before i post i wanna say frag is a twat!!

Table 2:
1 - frag kebab
2 - Dongziller
3 - Meltdown
4 - Sammiad
5 - Focus

so yeah i fucked up the set up so blinds were $3/6 and didn't raise so when it got to the last 3 we upped the blinds ourselves, ended up me and frag again left with about 12k each so decided to go all in on the next hand - i had ace seven he has ace two - i was winnin all the way then a feckin 2 falls out on the river - you twat frag!! lol good game fellas sorry i fecked the set up up a bit but we got there in the end

I had the 2 up me sleeve the whole time mate. Just waited for the right moment to sneak it on to the table.

you're supposed to create a tournement!! by the small blinds it sounds like it was just a cash game, you deserved to lose for that Dong!!!

we have inally gotten round to doing our Round 3 match..... good games all.... very unlucky with going out trip queens with trip queens going out to a bigger kicker

Round 3 Table 1:

1st - Western30
2nd - Muppet Enforcer (Bennett)
3rd - Meltdown101
4th - Frag Kebab
5th - themightyboosh

Good games all, Got very lucky at the start but ended up in head up with 8 grand aginst less than 2. Well played all.

Enjoyed my cameo for one hand going all in with Frag and doubling up. Only for Boosh to turn up and start again. I would have won for you Boosh!!

It is true that in one hand you did better than Boosh over several!

yeah....

... I have a thing about 3rd that's twice in 2 that ive played that ive finished 3rd...

well done Weston

You only missed 1 round which Mal scored 2 points, so you're nicely placed, think you're about 4th

Cool, not bad for a beginner!
