Feeling very good about winning Leg 2 of TKOII (mini-brag alert!!)

edited January 2010 in Poker Chat
Played in 3 tourneys last night on here (£500 Bounty Hunter, £250 Gtd Speed + £850 Bounty Hunter) and i cashed in ALL 3 of them which surprised me somewhat as it's the first time i've ever seem to recall doing something like that in Poker but the one performance wise i was really happy with was in the £850 BH as due to a slip of the fingers and pressed the call button by accident with absolute nothing i was down to a paltry 1,050 chips with about 21 players left in the field (10 got paid) who had stacks of 15k+ and above and if i ever have been in situations like this i have beat myself up about it and gone slightly on-tilt but i thought no let's really grind and shove it all-in with any playable hand.

It worked as i managed to get on the final table and ended up 6th and won £33!.

All in all laid out nearly £18 and won £50 so very happy with my performance on the tables and let's hope it's 2-0 to Team Tikay by the end of the evening! :):)

    Hi Craig,
    Dont forget this is an omaha tourney not holdem.
    I think most people will be just looking to play it like holdem so it could be a little difficult to work out some players.

    Col, i have a memory like a sieve! :):):)

    I was going to play in last night's TKO warmup but due to having my dinner late (Is 7pm late for having your dinner? :) i resorted in railing Richard Orford on his table instead lol!

    It's going to be interesting how most players are going to play tonight as there will be a fair percentage who will have had limited experience in playing Omaha and i agree with you that some may want to play the game like Holdem.

    Have a good one m8!
