    great updates tikay thanks for all your efforts, and the daily postcards....... by the way have you come across any bricks over there that come with any interesting facts?
    Posted by scouse_red
    ALL bricks are interesting, Chris, but it's the internet age & these pesky kids don't appreciate tales of Flettons, Yellow Stocks, Southwater Class B Reds or Staffordshire Class A Blues.

    Virtually all of the old-fashioned railway embankments & bridges in Gt Britain are constructed in Staffordshire Blues. Lovely things, but nobody seems to care.

    In Response to Re: Punta Cana Classic Live Update : Duly delivered, & he snap doubled up with 8-8 v LyonsBob's Aces. He looks so young - I mean he can't be shaving yet, can he? - that I almost feel like I should give him a cuddle & tell him a bedtime story.

    Man Overboard Alert

    Groggs is history.

    He lost most of his stack with Aces against - would you believe it? - LyonsBob.
     
    It came jack high on the flop, & our Bob had Q-J, & somehow did a get with runner-runner flush.

    A swift 2xUp followed, & then this coup de grace arose....

    He has J-6 in a limped pot, & sees the trip-licious 6-6-4 flop. To cut to the chase, villain had, improbably, pocket 4's for the flopped boat, & Groggs, who still had plenty of outs, failed to get there.

    Anyway, at least he can get an early night. Took his defeat well, too, just like a grown-up.

    Lady Overboard Alert

    dameflop is OUTO in a horror beat.

    Having barely played a hand all night, she found the Aces, popped it up & got 2 optimistic callers.

    The J high flop looked pretty good, she bet out & Mr Hopeful 3 bet here.
     
    Lesley was having none of this & shoved the rest of her 30,000 in, & our man snap called with J-Q, thinking his Jack was good. It was when it came runner runner spades for the backdoor flush.

    Husband Overboard Alert

    Minutes later & uncannily, husband George busted in a near identical coup, when villain thought his J-Q was good on a J high flop, but then hit perfect-perfect to get there.

    Man with Thinning Hair Overboard Alert

    DontTellmum has 6-6 & flops a set on the 6-7-A flop. Unforch, Villain had the Aces.
     
    To be honest, DTM was in tears, apparently that comment from Nasty Matt Bates really touched a nerve.
     
    "I'll be back" were DTM's parting words, though he'd struggle to make a parting with that little hair.

    Oh no.........what a shame.

    I just hope that the people who complain about SKY Poker when they lose with their AAces. read this and see that it happens LIVE too..... that's the 3rd time in the last hour or so.

    EDIT: 4th time if Hubby had them too

    He's not in good shape, looks & sounds most unwell. Think he'd rather be in bed, to be honest.

    He's battling away - you know what he's like - but its certainly all uphill for him right now.
     
    PS - Vinny = SEXY1? I've heard him called a lot of things, & I've called him a few, but never that. Perhaps he has hidden talents.

    Not been a lot to get to be honest. It seems players may be waiting for the value to return.

    Biggest stack I have seen so far is the guy who bust GlencoeLad, who had the fat end of 200,000 last time I looked.
     
    He has been running super golden, & hitting everything. A nasty, mean, horrible little man who is full of himself & giving everyone plenty of chat, & not nice chat. He's God's gift to poker - or so he seems to think. Be interesting to see how he copes when Miss Variance gets the lip on with him & pays a visit.

    Hello Ta-ta

    After hours of searching, & with some help from Justin, I at last found Tatapagao, who is cruising along nicely & bossing his tavle a treat.
     
    Tata appears to be Spanish, or Spanishish, certainly from that part of the world.
     
    Me encanta
  • edited October 2016


    Ta-Ta Tata

    In a splendid piece of bokking only I could manage, after not mentioning Tatapagao all evening, he busts within minutes of my first mention.
     
    Was a 100,000 pot, & I gather he was cruelly outdrawn, though I missed the specifics.
     
    I feel real bad for mentioning him now.

    Another ship goes missing


    Junior10, who had struggled for cards all night eventually succumbs.

    Bit of a nasty one, as he had intended to call but placed an oversized chip in & never said "call" so it counted as a raise. He was a bit pot stuck when villain realised what the coup was & set him in so he was kinda forced to call with a marginal.   
  • edited October 2016

    Thanks to some ace detective work by Justin, we now have the details of Tata's exit.

    He had 5-5 on a flop of Q-9-5 rainbow, shoved, & somehow Q-J man thought his hand was good.
     
    It was good after the runner runner perfect perfect ugly ugly 10-8.
     
    Nasty bit of business, that.
