Having lost in the first round of the Hu challenge to some geezer called Greghogg I find i am back in due to a lucky draw. However I now find myself playing Hoggers mate Irishrover. How can I beat him ?? Steve Posted by bigbiker22
Hi mate,
i am pleased you made it through because you got very unlucky vs that greghogg chap
Irishrover, is a small stakes genius, one look at his sharkscope will send you dizzy
my advice, is to play super agro and to wear him down slowly but surely.
I enter an MTT and find that I have one opponent who is "away". Should I steal his blinds? Assuming that I do steal his blinds and he sits in after a bit saying "sorry, I was a bit busy at work" (which I read as code for "the boss has just left after catching me unawares") should I offer to equalise chip stacks before continuing?

It depends who it is Vince
If its someone you want to make babies with then yes, if its a fat random middle-aged man, then just whistle to your self quietly and pretend it didnt happen.
Dear Mrs Hogg, A friend of mine that supports Arsenal wants a wager with me as to which of Spurs or Arsenal will progress further in next seasons Chumpions League. Now whilst, I know the obvious answer, the question is what size of wager / prob-bet to make?? WWHD???? (all arsenal fans please note reply) Posted by JAEGERBOMB
A better bet would be how much are they going to sell Cesc Fabregas for
less than 10 million 10000/1 10-20 million 25/1 21-30 million evens 31-40 million 8/1 41-50 million 12/1 50 million plus 20/1
This also has an effect on the champions league question, because without Cesc Fabregas, they are nothing.
Spurs need to get in the Champions Leguge proper first before i can give you a serious answer to your question
pls answer the original question Mr hogg sir or are you trying for career in politics now???
Also, regarding my previous question re: my paper column, im finding the time i spend on this is ruining my poker ability.........also the readership dont seem to respect me, and im thinking of saying "stuff them"
Hoggers, I've got a nasty rash in an unmentionable place... Should I hope it clears up on it's own or buy some over the counter cream for it? Ta Posted by cookie83
Win the WSOP Main Event and then some attractive young ladies won't mind?
I'm sure that Hoggers will be able to supply more responsible advice.

OK, at this stage put a tenner on Arsenal to last longer in the Champions League than Spurs, because Spurs are not even in it yet
If the readership don't respect you, then why are they reading it in the first place? Tell em to pee off to another paper.

Well cookies and cream go well together..
So cream it is, and don't engage in any activities that might aggravate it, if you know what i mean...
Hi Mr Hogg - what do you do when you have paid your hard earned £3.30 and find that your only two opponents are half cousins of Phil Ivey? I am sat there with a guy who claims to be a mere novice - yeah!! and a nice guy called Greg who I last saw on an article about the WSOP!!! I was tempted to turn tail and head for the hills but my sense of adventure (or harrykarry - never could spell that) took over. Really enjoyed the battle and felt I learned lots - even ended up coming second having witnessed the Greg chappie take a dive. Was my £3.30 well spent - or should I go back to avoiding the "big boys" at all costs?

Lol, Hi Imber, that 3 handed PLO8 "mtt" was great fun.
Don't be worried about either me or Merenovice, we are both really poor players honest:)
The £3.30 was well spent because, you got to play vs a couple of donkey luckboxes, and you were unlucky not to win.
Hoggers... I've got an important work meeting on Thursday... Now should I spend my eveing from now till then doing lots of detailed preparation or donk of my bankrole in various skypoker tournies?? WWHD? Posted by cookie83
Hi Cookie,
Firstly, well done on that brill Primo win and your great recent results. Feel free to donk your cash in my direction:)
Now, your question..
I believe that in some companies and organisations, they have meetings about having meetings about having meetings. I.E they are arranged specifically to make self-important middle managers look like they are actually doing some work, when in fact they use it as an excuse to get the staff canteen to deliver some coffee and volauvonts.
However, assuming this is a proper important meeting, i would obviously not play pokerage and would do some preparation. Once a boy scout always a boy scout and when you have the phrase "be prepared" engraved in your brain, this is much better than "winging it", even if "winging it" is kind of fun sometimes:)
I drove back from Kent last night (dingy place with loads of overweight people) I want to know what u would do with middle lane drivers. I spent 2 hours on the M25 and M3 going mad watching these numbskulls. Posted by phil12uk
Phil, you obviously had the misfortune to go to Medway, there are no overweight people in Folkestone, we are all perfectly normal and healthy here:)
Middle lane drivers, there is actually a website dedicated to this subject entitled Middle lane morons. Unfortunaltly for me they are also known as Road "Hogs", although note only one "g"
I would make middle lane driving an offence punishable by public medieval torture methods such as seen in the London Dungeon.
Dear Mr Hogg I get no respect at the poker table even when I win I get accused of being Jammy Donut! Why is this? when Im Obviously an Iced Donut with sprinkles!
Im having a bit of a luck-box run at the moment but unfortunately I have to go to Holland to work on Friday for 3 weeks!!!!!! Should I accidentally miss the plane??
Also I've made a promise to a friend that if a somehow make £1k profit for each month July-October then I will take them to Vegas for the November9??

Hello Donut,
I have not played you before until we played a 10 seater sng last night.
All i can say is that you are the jammiest donut i have ever had the pleasure of playing a "ring" game with...
As for respecting your raises, well, in future expect a reraise every time you raise me when i am in the bb.

Thank you! Im sure I will call and get jammy and take your chips quicker! You are so kind!

Give me your username and password, and i will get your negative varience well and truely out of the way for you, so when you return from Holland your super run will continue and you will take your friend to Vegas to watch at least one Sky Poker qualifier on the ft. fingers crossed.
P.S the give me your password bit is a joke, do not under any cicumstances give your pin to anyone innit.
Kind words of wisdom Sir Hoggers, If the impossible does happen should I also pay for said friends food bill?? I am slightly worried my budget will not extend that far. Posted by JAEGERBOMB
Are you taking Dylan12?
In which case, no, do not offer to pay his food bill ever ever ever. Dylan's food bill is so expensive that if you read the Budget prepared by Osbourne and Cameron carefully enough you will find Dylan's food costs, hidden somewhere between the NHS, police, and education:)
On the topic of Dylan's eating habits..........would u advise bringing a packed lunch for the Swansea SPT as Dylan will almost certainly be out before the food break and I have serious reservations on there being any food left at the restaurant for the players still in then.

Whilst playing online, I find it very difficult to do chip tricks. Sometimes my fingers burn, and sometimes the chips fall on the floor. This can be very irritating especially if covered in tomato sauce...........WWHD?
My column in the local newspaper has been a great success. However, I am getting repeated stupid questions from the same correspondent. I fear, this could be my first stalker. Should I tell him/her where to go??
