    Hi guys

    question for james, what do you do with my hand here pre.

    utg is a tight player.

    also would you snap fold on the flop or call to trebble up:)

    can you show hand 285395349 for goodylad plus i`d like too know what they had ?

    I think the phone ins show the difference between how a serious player and a recreational player views playing poker. Beaneh is ftw because he multi tables and knows the one win will put him in profit whereas the recreational might only be playing the one tourney and cashing is a big deal. I don't think either viewpoint is wrong.

    Hi Guys,

    Great show, during tonights show I was down to 90 chips when the blinds were 50/100

    I was about to possibly pull off one of the greatest comebacks of all time till hand 285397056 happened!!

    Please can you show it for me. Not sure what the call pre flop was all about!!

    Thanks

    Pete

    QUESTION FOR THE HOSTS, Ive always said to my friends and have never been agreed with but I think that in the WSOP main event first hand you get aces on the big blind, its folded round to the small blind and he goes all in then I would fold as not to risk all my chips in one hand. What do you think?

    you shouldn't be in the tourny if you're going to fold the physical best spots you can get in at any point. you've got so long to go till the cash and you cant guarantee to get as good a spot as this so just take your chance and try and get chips.

    The enjoyment should come from playing well not from 'good results'. Results orientated thinking causes nebulous thoughts and irrational strategies.

    i class myself as recreational but that doesnt mean i dont multi-table ;)

    the ultimate goal is to win but as talon said, the tourney cant be won in the mid stages but it can be lost. i've won a few decent MTT's playing my style, and no doubt beaneh's won his fair share with his style. i know one big win will put me in profit but theres no point sticking your neck out on the block chasing draws every time to get there.

    You have to win chips at some point if you want to go deep or win so you're chips have to go in at some point, the best case is raise and get folds and never go to showdown but the shorter you get the more you go to showdown the more luck becomes involved in the short term.

    edit- I only have 8 tables up now, busted 3 already and got 7 more on the way!

    thanks for showing the hand, i was happy that i played it ok, if we were deeper stacks i would rereaise pre.

    Guys could you ask James, how would he recommend dealing with tilt. I tilted in the tournament, despite recovering my stack never recovered mentally.

    LML.....please can you mention Irishrover's BB forum thread if you can. He has worked very hard on it and deserves some thanks from us all. (plus it will really really niggle TK by mentioning it!!!
