    In Response to Re: Correct Amount To Bring To A Cash Table? : pod have you ever tried to sit with 6 of the best free play players on sky? i dont think you have, i think you would be way out of your depth!!! tikay is always banging on about how poker is all about enjoyment and that is what i am doing just plying my trade on the free play tables, fair enough its not a massive income but i am slowly earning a lot more points than i used to, my poker play balance is now at 1460, no matter what level your playing at thats pretty impressive stuff. you and free chips clearly dont want to play on the free play tables do you? so my question to you is. your not playing poker for enjoyment you are playing for the money is this true? tikay what do you think of these guys just playing to lay money in their pockets? you have always stated that you should play to enjoy but clearly these are not they are playing to win money and if they lose they dont enjoy it!! where as if i lose a buy in of my free play balance i just chill out have a dairy lea dunkster and reload another 1000 , is this a good strategy or maybe switch to wispa gold's cos the dunksters take ages to eat?

    10k of playmoney on an un known rover, that i believe is a risky business in vestment. surly pokerman you dont want to get in to bed with  a fly by night rogue rover for 50% of your hard earned cash. after playing you later and finding out you are as good as you say you are, i might be prepared to give you  5k , but for only 10%. ditch the dave, roll over the rover and come and play in the pod team. i will look after you , honest

    Over there now, massive battle taking place between Porkerman, Scrumdown and myself.

    Porkerman felted me twice, so I'm 2 grand down but grinding my way back.

    Chat is almost as good as the poker...

    there is a glitch on this table, it has done this for a few times now, i was supposed to act first and it kept letting machka act first, it did this for numerous hands and is giving me position and a very unfair advantage on the rest of the table, if this carries on i wont be able to play on this table anymore

    HAL_9000 and DiggerMan have joined the fray, dealing irregularities are the main discussion point.  We have the top Sky Boffins at Sky HQ on the case.

    I definitely had the advantage there.

    BTW Porkerman you should post on the "Be on the show....." thread in the "Sky Poker TV Channel Forum".  I think it would be great to see you on TV and they'd give you a free buy in possibly to the £33 Primo on Sunday.

    I am 100% serious about this.

    I love how it puts £ signs in on the HH! Makes it look like you're playing proper high-roller stakes!
    Dealing issues aside, it was a tough table!

  • edited April 2010
    If you search for someone playing free play tables and they are sat at 50/100 it shows the table as £50/£100!!!

    I decided not to join the table that way and went through the Lobby, cash tables, free play, just to be on the safe side!

    lol

    Hi Porker.

    I'm not actually sure who is levelling who here, tbh, but if you are enjoying yourself as you clearly are, then carry on as you are man. I estimate that over 90% of players don't actually enjoy poker, because it hurts too much when they lose, & they "can't take a beat", so good luck to you, at whatever levels you play.

    PS - Dairylea FTW.

    I'm playing free play with pod1, DiggerMan, scrumdown, IRISHROVER and we're all getting owned by a freeplay regular.  I'm not enjoying poker right now.

    I was watching the action for a while on the rail and I dont think I have quite got the game yet to sit down amongst these players. I shall have to watch for another 2 weeks or so, make some notes on players, and then I might put 100 pound down and play.
    I have noticed though that Machka is a total luckbox, Irish is a card rack, Pod is a maniac and Diggerman is a rock.

    well that was fun, after getting creamed by a free play player for 5k and then sitting down with the likes of scrum, dohh, rover, machka, ozzie and diggerman pulled out a world class preformance to skint the lot ( until they reloaded again). dohhh ran off with his tale between his legs, rover wilted and gave me his 12k. digger dug himself a grave only ozzie stood firm against such an onslaught. left them licking there wounds with 22k in the bank . was just lucky pokerman wasnt there or i was going to be in trouble, got out before he arrived

    that was fun. creamed for 5k by a regular free play player then after getting my game together and getting a read on dohhh rover scrum digger and ozzie, totally took the field apart. dohhh left with his tail between his legs ,rover wilted in the onslaught, digger dug himself his grave.only ozzie stood up to the pounding. put 22k in the bank for later. just glad pokerman wasnt there, these guys were easy picking. rover might have noticed that i did wait till he cleared off the table before i sat down. hand of the day comming up. put rover on kk just "KNEW" my ace would come!!!!!!

    lol, I totally agree pod the Ace always comes if not the turn its definitely going to be the river

    Personaly i think rover should of folded pre flop, to save himself the heartache of the Ace hittin
