unknown_username

I am in...! Looking forward to it...!

SoLack

34 - good effort

SoLack

Bergkamp out already - Haysie doubled up

SoLack

Shy-Boy on the edge - down to under 1000

SoLack

shy-boy recovered slightly - but clarky is the second one out

SoLack

Be patient people - ratboy third out - only on second level

SoLack

wullyboy next to go - they're dropping like flies

SoLack

Trap 333 is the next to fall

phil12uk

Liking the updates but don't educate them lol

SoLack

Atomant goes out just b4 first break

SoLack

first break - 28 still in

Haysie leading the way

Shy-boy back down to just over ten bb

bigflop1

if there are only 30 runners then only 3rd/4th will get paid.. any1 who has ever played poker will know, it would be the same on any site or live.. not just sky..

only thing i could think of would be to make it a 1k guaranteed??? this would ensure closer to 50+ runner therefore ensuring top 5/6 get paid.. i havent paid it yet as i prefer the bigger prizes offered from the open and bounty tournies

think i would play tho if it were a 1k guaranteed game

SoLack

its a fixout
shy boy out
joyce out

can't keep up pant pant

SoLack

xmaswood gone from my table didn't see what happened - multitabling

SoLack

James's dad and bigshann have gone out

SoLack

Massie now gone (i bumped him out!!)  He made a bluff sized all in on the turn - I called with top pair (Q).

Fitzer asl ogone

SoLack

Sorry i ran out of steam - still in this and open (just). 

SoLack

Well, I went out the spot before the bubble, was getting a bit desperate.

above me: 

dirtyjoe1	4	£85 + 12 League Points	0
phil12uk	5	£68 + 6 League Points	0
FlashFlush	6	£51	0
polplays	7		0
SoLack	8		0

Hayzie, Hubzter and DWOOD92 still going. DWOOD now got most of the chips (111000 of 170000) but blinds still only 1k/2k so still poss for the others

SoLack

Hubzster gone out.  Lost most of chips to Haysie.  Hub went all in wit A10 on the sb Haysie called with 33 and then held up.

An Haysie just lost - he had trip Kings but DWOOD had 56 and hit an unlikey run.

Well played all - lets try and keep these numbers playing.

SoLack

At least I made the cash in the open.

FlashFlush

Well I had a bit of a cooler with the only person that could hurt my stack!!.. This is what happened, let me know what you wud do and ne1 else if they have an opinion...

 Blinds 150/300.. I have As Jc on SB .... Folds to button you raises to 600 i call, BB folds, flop Ad, 4s, 5s ... i check, button raises to 1500 (pot) i call, turn a 6s, I check, he then bets 4500 (pot again).. at this point he only has 5k left behind so i know he is commited, i have got pair of aces and nut flush draw, i think rather than calling im gonna put them all in... they called and showed A5, (2 pair.) i didnt improve and i went down to bout 5k .... looking back at it, i shud of re-raised pre to the min raise... but how wud u play it?

SoLack

The thing is you don't know where you are preflop - so you have no idea what he has, he could have been stealing with 23 (I would!)!  If I was on my game (I'm a bit inconsistent) I would have raised by a further 600 pre flop.  But hten again if I was in the position you were at the turn I would seriously consider folding.  But I'm always good with these hindsight hands lol.

Tikay10

I'm in this tonight  - see some of you guys later!

PS - 7 runners already, with 2 hours to go.

Any more for any more?
