    That's more like it, the Ger we know!
    As usual, if I've done something wrong with the leaderboard thingy, please leave a message, ta.

    ps. My own £200 freeroll challenge, only another £189.53p  to go!

     Well the dream is still alive albeit hanging by a very small thread.

     Another small session, another perfect session  3/3

     So now Played 96  won 66  68.8%  current win streak 7

    Best poss   70
    Worst poss 66
    Target        67

     So that is the old man taken care of and now just a matter of how close to mike i can get before this nice bit of luck runs out. Before starting this if offered temporary top3 on completeion would have jumped at it so over the moon with my score.

     4 games to go.
    Possible outcomes.  1 out of 4  means hitting my target
                                 3 out of 4  means joint top place
                                 4 out of 4  means a lovely win streak of 11 to steal the lead

    Somebody stop him! Macac, I demand you come out of retirement immediately!

    I'd stop him myself (well, try) but he keeps sneaking in sessions while I'm at work!

    GL Talon, would be a great run to steal top spot.

    IT warms my heart to see one of my pupils doing so well
    well done bhoys. Keep it going, top tip for you, keep away from the £1 games

     I have 2 more games to play to reach my mile stone of 100 games 
    Think I will play these games Wednesday night
     Not sure what level yet, I need to win a £5 and £11 game to get a mention in dispatches 
    I'll sleep on it 

    OK So big day looming for Team AJ, the completion of 100 games 
    Wednesday 03/12/2014... 7pm ish It'll be bum hunt at the £11 table's or crush the £1

    **please Note free coaching is only available at the £1 tables**
    (a surcharge may be added at other level's)
     

    Regards Alan (team AJ FTW)

    I have a sneaky suspicion that FCHD (Barney) is playing it slow and steady, he'll see what the final target is to beat, then he'll give it a damn fine spanking!
    It sure is getting close at the top now, just what we wanted to see I guess!  Brilliant stuff, with some awesome results. takes some patience to play properly like that for so many games.
    I ain't coming back Mike, apart from a couple of games inbetween Christmas and New Year, I'm done. I'm too daft to slow down playing, if I tried to play 2 or 3 a night, that'd soon end up as 20 or 30 and I'd miss it even more when I had to leave!

    Having said that, if one of these Christmas challenges involved having to play PLO8 on a particular day, I'd do that. Love a challenge!

    ps. Interesting fact for TK, Elephants can only see out of one eye.

    My freeroll challenge, £188.12 to go.

    THat's why Ive not started yet!  ;-)  
    Seriously  tho, been too busy with some life problems too devote much serious time to it yet.  Am very impressed with the figures you peeps are setting and I gotta say I'm a little bit scared of coming last!!

    Interesting fact for TK.  I had occasion to visit the site of the world's first hydroelectric powered train system a while ago. Any ideas?

    Yesterdays Christmas challenge thingy has got me a-thinking.
    a) I don't know what an iPhone 6 is.
    b) I don't know what a twitter is.

    I'm guessing an iPhone is a phone which is also an mp3 player, which is also a camera, which is also a mini laptop, which is also a teasmaid.
    I've got an ipod classic thingy, which I love. It's about three quarters full, hundreds and hundreds of albums, absolutely love it. It's taken me two years to understand how to put stuff on it from iTunes and how to use it to it's full capabilities. Just found out that they aren't being made anymore, probably because they only play music and videos and view pictures. So, I've had to buy another one before stocks run out, to keep in its box until the one I have is lost/broken.

    All I know about twitter is that it's hashtag stuff.
    #Need to buy a new toaster but I'm not getting one until toaster mk8 comes out which is also a qualified airline pilot.

    Things to do today so only a very small session. But yet again perfect  2/2

    Played 98  won 68  69.4% Current streak 9

    Best poss   70
    Worst poss 68
    Target        67 (already achieved)


     Remaining 2 games
     Win none  then post leaderboard second(will still be very happy with score)
     Win one  then tie with mike for lead
     Win both then beautiful 11 game streak for temporary lead.

     On a side note. On last game did do a favour for mike by knocking out 67bhoys and denting his figures

    To be fair, BB Mike put a bounty on your head.  I was trying to keep his lead intact, but it went a bit Pete Tong.

    Sorry Mike

    Just an update currently 48 from 83 so 57.8313353% (approximately)

    Absolutely no chance of worrying the top of the leader board but on course to at least break 50% which I'll be pleased with.
     
    I don't know but I have a sneaky feeling I also do better at the higher buy ins, maybe I don't donk off as many chips in those as I do at the lower buy ins, also Tikay plays those so there's always some dead money to be had!

    I decided to go for the bravery cross today.  I did mange to progress from 60p to £11 winning each one.  Unfortunately the £5.50 and £11 tables took an age to fill, so I played a few 60p games in between, and lost 2 of those.  Still I have won 17 of the last 22, so running good at the mo.

     Final stint completed. Interesting couple of dyms. First one played well and then just when it mattered the deck slapped my opponents in face and i lost. Last one cruised into the money so 1/2


    Final results  Played 100 won 69  69%

     Thouroughly enjoyable competition and if offered this score would have jumped at it. Some great play and some great banter on the table loved it all

    Well done Talon! Couldn't resist the opportunity to knock you out of the 2nd one, ended up handing it to you on a plate with another player sitting out! WP, great late run.
