POST-SPT PTP!

edited September 2010 in Poker Chat
Well, I'm back from Nottingham - totally cream-crackered, but still up for some on-line action at 7pm.

Tournaments are my focus this evening...

Once again, Tikay is indisposed (attending the British Poker Awards), so the 8.30pm ToT event will be Have a Go at Hartigan: Round 2.  It's a £2.20, well-structured NLHE freezeout. Come play.

I'll also be entering some Omaha MTTs and STTs - starting with the 7.10pm £3.30 PLO event.  It would be great to see a decent sized field for this one.  And if you've never played Omaha before, I'd say it's a relatively cheap way to learn the game! 

Keep an eye on this thread to follow my whereabouts after that.  No doubt, I'll play some PLO/PLO8 cash as well.

Have to say: if this tournament business proves successful, I may consider starting a Monday night 'Omaha League'.  A bit like the Justice League.  Only without the weird costumes.  Unless GREGHOGG joins in ;-)

    I'll try and work up the energy to come along too, sounds like fun. Thanks for all your work over the weekend james, especially with the final interview at about 2am- you looked absolutely shattered!! Fantastic weekend, great stuff.

    Big thanks to the Daves - and to Kiwini4u, SoLack and LEON1 for registering for the 7.10pm PLO tournament.  5 entries so far.  45 mins to go.  Can we get more than 10 runners...?

    I'm in the PLO tourny, I must have a punchers chance right.

    Anyone wanna offer 3 tips for adapting to PLO tournys rather than cash? (the more obvious the better)

    blind stealing? 3 bet/shove - ing? speculative limping?

    Thanx, cu there!

    I shd be good value.  I am also a bit knackered, and have also entered the 7.15 £22 deepie, the main bh and the 8.30 hagah.  Multi tabling mixed games probably not a gd idea.

    Meanwhile, with less than 10 minutes to go before the tournament starts, I've opened a PLO cash table.

    Bromley - 5p/10p.

    1st lesson painfully learnt : Flushes don't play well on paired boards in Omaha. Oh well.
