    Well I wont be troubling the top of the leaderboard so 67bhoys can stop busting me now (please) Will keep going until completed. Currently 10/18 after a very indifferent couple of sessions yesterday.

    I know we don't take poker TOO seriously here, but 67Bhoys has posted a brilliant "fun" Hand History, & told a little story, too,  HERE Have a read, it's top work. See if you can recognize the 2 villains, too.

     Brilliant that.
    I can never read them hand things properly tho, was 223j first to act oop or sb nicking bb?
    If oop, it could be one of about 15,20? But one does spring to mind obv.
    'chips never leave his side' gave it away before i saw the hand, obv mr. k.
     
    If it's sb vs bb, I reckon it's me vs you!

    Nope, not in the Blinds - J-3-2-2 was UTG & first to act from what I can see, so not exactly the prime seat to steal from, with 5 behind. 
     
    PS - It was all good-natured, obv, & I hope nobody thinks otherwise. Deffo the sort of thing that makes the game such a wonderfully complex puzzle to solve.

    In Response to Re: PLO8 DYM Competition MKII : Morning Tuney. I disagree with that - it was a correct fold imo. It was 4 handed, you & Lady Twaddle had nearly 9,000 chips between you, with Her Ladyship having a slight lead over you. With Whizzy & I both on life support, she is NEVER betting there with worse than your hand. She'd take on Whizzy or me with less, but she's way too cute to make a move against the other big stack unless she is very strong indeed. It just makes no sense. Her ranges are spot on, & she has superb spatial awareness.   As it happens, yeah, you lost, but I firmly believe you made the correct fold. You were "flipping" at the very best, & had no need to get involved.   You can bet with a far worse hand v Whizzy or me & not risk your DYM life at the time. Not sure if you noticed, but one chap had 4,000 chips early doors in that game, & managed to finish 5th just because he had no understanding of DYM dynamics. Instead of playing nice & snug, he wanted to play every hand.   Was a fun game, really enjoyed that extended play 4 handed, "looking for spots" all the while.  Piece of useless trivia - Macac & Whizzy have played, between them, 108,000 DYM's on Sky Poker.

    Thanks for that and also to Maca's post confirming that she did indeed have a monster. The problem with making a good, disciplined, fold is that it seems to guarantee I will then get absolute tripe for the next dozen or so hands!

    GL.
    Be aware, some of those lowest staked gamed are very tricky, it's almost impossible to put anyone on a particular hand.
    any old 4 will do!

    Like it fits through the door at the minute.

    Good luck champ, would be brilliant :)

    Working late Shifts at the minute, so finding it hard to get any games in, but I will get there eventually.

    Happy birthday pommy :)

    Happy Birthday Bill.

    What a fantastic cake, are you really only 60?


  • edited December 2015
    That cake looks awesome pommy.
    Save us a slice.
    OK.
    Half?
  • edited December 2015
    Well that's me done. Played 5 this evening and won 4, sadly only needed 3 to make up my 25 which included the loss and therefore finished with 15 out of 25 wins. A respectable 60% but nothing to worry the leaderboard.

    Don't subscribe to SS and my notes aren't that detailed so haven't a clue if there was any respectable winning streak, I suspect not.

    Good luck to all those yet to finish.

    Well done Hendo, its not about having a bad run, its about how you react to it.

    Thanks a lot Ger, I did throw the toys out the pram last week, but I think having a weekend away with the wife and kids really helped.

    I have enjoyed the ups and downs this week, whereas last week i was miserable.

    Anyway played another 3 and won 2 lost 1

    so my total is

    played 24

    won 12

    lost 12

    After winning 1 from first 10 (or was it 11 even) start I am pretty pleased with that :-)
  • edited December 2015

    Yeah well done Hendo mate, very good comeback indeed.

    See Hendo, variance.
    How's the man flu? You must be so terribly ill if you could drink wine at the same time.
