    Hi Dazler,

    I've not played much on Sky this year. I have been focussing on cash games elsewhere. However the swings have not been kind, so i will be playing more Tournaments on Sky again.

    Good to see you back Ed. Horrible when it happens but always a risk when being properly aggressive at the sharp end of a tourny.
     Do you still hold record for most main event wins?

    Hi Swiss .... I watched that last night. You were in a great position and playing aggressively. The first hand you put in a good raise and the guy to your left was short stacked so was always going to call with 66. The last hand you had little option but to shove it in. The 2nd hand was just unfortunate that you met a monster. The guy to your left went from shortstack to CL in three hands and you were unlucky. I can't see that you did anything wrong, it's just poker at it's most destructive.

    Hi Tony,

    Sadly no, Youngster currently winning with 6. I have been stuck on 5 for a while. I think possibly one other player also has 5.

    Hi Elsadog,

    Cheers for feedback. I agree i don't think i misplayed it.

    First hand just basic race. I open went all in with J9 as everyone was short stacked he called with 66, all standard.

    Second hand he had about 12bbs and min raised utg with KK but we were 4 handed. Calling with 1010 i think is a mistake and folding is very paranoid but i did consider it. So i shoved.

    Third hand, had about 5 bbs and was in sb. I could have waited 2 hands as 84 not great but only had one opponent so certainly not wrong, but i could have waited.
