    Not a problem...!

    I do love the deepy though, allows for some proper poker...! Even though after hours of poker, a gambler takes a shot at a flush draw and wipes you out...! ;)

    What you have to ask yourself is what would Tony say if he were analyising the hand.
    He has said before that yes he was a 32% to win the hand but when you checked and he went allin it increased his odds to win the hand. Ie if you didnt have trips you would have folded.
    Now then my point is that you let him semi bluff at you, had you bet out first it becomes more difficult for him to call or push.
    I know you know what im on about, i just thought i'd put my two peneth in.
    I would also expect Tony to say he was getting a decent price to call(in position), preflop.
    If i'm wrong then i'm sorry.

    Well I never Call in that Spot in a million years, but by me Pushing, you HAVE to Pass. Unless you have Top Set, of course......Sorry man, really, that was sooooooo ugly.

    Anyways, I dumped them off when I ran my KK into MASSIE's AA.

    In the other one - the Mick Jenn - I got done over by a quite spectacular Pre-Flop Call by a guy with KQ. Hey-Ho. I only had A-7 mind, but I made it 12 x BB & he snap-Called me.

    Tomorrow we do it all over again. The downswing continues!

    I gotta say, though, I thoroughly enjoyed both Tourneys tonight. Lost £27, but hadda bunch of laughs with the regularzs.

    No - he Raised in the BB, & I called wth a view to nicking it later if he showed weakness. He checked the Flop, meaning he was either weak, or extremely strong.

    Then it all went horribly wrong/right........

    I had Q-9 of Clubs, Flop was J high, 2 clubs. He checked, I Jammed, he snap-Called, I binked.

    My head hangs in shame.....

    Totally agree with you col... and that is the best way to play the hand...

    My thought behing is was that tikay would of called a riase with KJ maybe QJ... so thought i was dominating... how I got that wrong...! But yes agree with your commments...!

    Just got knocked out 3rd in the mickjenn tourn, my AJ vs A8 hits 8... thems the breaks...

    Well that's a bit of profit Apple - well done m8.

    The Poker Gods ensured I never profited from my Binkage. It all equals out in the end, & I'm delighted you nicked a few bob tonight.

    I hope you are able to play the tikay Sleepie - 7pm Wednesday. Plenty of laughage in that.

    I got another cash for £80 in the deepy but then got hammered by the poker gods - A9 v 8,7 and AQ v AJ both times seeing my dominated hands getting crushed by vile flops!! On a side note - congrats to deep stack regular Charlie aka Flashflush who took down the Open last night.

    Managed to get 2cd place tonight in this one nearly got my losses back for the month, now to try and sat into the sunday 100 (br not sufficient for a direct buy in).WP to Glen who won, u deserved it for sheer aggression on final table.

    I havent read the whole post so apoligies if this has been suggested/dealt with, but why not keep the guarentee,  halve the buyin and make a big thing about it.

    I personally dont play it because of it being out of my BR at this time, but at £11 I would play for sure.

    There is a nice Tourney every Wednesday at 7pm which may suit you then, Mr White.

    The "tikay Sleepstack" has 5,000 chips, 12 minute Blinds, & is on 10 Seater Tables.

    £10 + £1 = great value, & it got 98 runners last week.

    Good Luck in it. It plays really nice, & there's always a bunch of banter in the Chat-Box.

    Wednesday night, 7pm.

    Well done Greg, Moooooooo, & NColley.

    I really miss playing this Tourmey when I'm working. I'll be back in it on Wednesday, though.

    Regardless of payment this tourney is by far one of the better.  Tikay is right, if there isn't enough players to pay out all of the final table then the lucky few will have to go the extra mile to get paid - simples.
    Always play the Deep Stack, always will.
    :o)
