    what do you expect lucky stop moaning all the time gawd! i was on the table with you for quite a while and you was doing ok playing solid but cant really blame someone for going in with a8 and not always the lower hand thats just in your head! its a free tourney why get so wound up over nothing all the time

    did you not see 9s hold up against my AQ so that proves you wrong for starters and i had enough chips to fold etc but not a bad move
  • edited October 2010
    Seems we achieved another 'winnin' draw!!
    Wp all, a great team effort!   4 more points, we would have been TOP!!!

    Note worth re-iterating, think every team member should be allowed to play/bet however he chooses, without criticism, dont think it hurts to have a couple of maverick's going for it!! I witnessed some great teamplay last nite at the sharp end where it matters, [towards 30 bubble, & points laddering up stages]

    Will wait for official results, but the disaster of Yellow & Blue both winnin, seems to have been avoided!!

    IN FACT looks like they both lost!!!!!!
     [Wonder what pretty pictures lucy4 is posting on other threads today!! Bless!]

    Oranges seem to have fought back into picture, well done to them!


    Will wait for table, but sure from our two final games, 2 wins WILL clinch it, A win & a draw COULD clinch it....
    .............IMPORTANTLY..........
    .......................................A WIN Sunday could put us top going into last game!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    BE THERE FOR EACH OTHER SUNDAY RED BROTHERS & SISTERS,
                 
    SUN 10-10-10 , 8.30pm v team sky!!

    LETS UNLEASH RED HELL UPON THEM!!!!!!!!!!!

                     ONE BIG RED EFFORT!

    We gained 1 point on Blues, who lost BUT still have to play Oranges & Yellows!!

    We gained 1 point on Yellows, who lost BUT!!! They still have to play BLUES

    SO A 2-point nett gain on our closest rivals!!!!!!!

    We are now thru the halfway point, and set nicely despite 2 draws that were nearly a win, and defeat that was nearly a draw!! This is where a RED Character wiil kick on Comrades! While others squabble & bicker, we have pulled together as a team, worked hard at table & chatbox with info, and scrapped points from our oppos!!!

    We Now have to overcome, Greens & sky, 2 of bott 3 !! I wish them Luck, but NO points!!

    OUR GOAL DIFF IS EXCELLENT!! Luckbox Yellows will be caught BEFORE the last GAME!!!

    OUR TEAMPLAY & Camaraderie will Pull Us Through the small setbacks we have encountered!!

    TEAMCOMRADE
    TEAMTOGETHER
    TEAMRED
    TEAMWIN!!!!!!!

    WE ALL WORK HARD FOR OUR FAMILIES DURING THESE HARD TIMES!! ESCAPE!! SUNDAY MAKE TIME & EFFORT TO PULL TOGETHER & ACHIEVE!!! SUCCESS FROM ADVERSITY IS THE SWEETEST TASTE TO ENLIGHTEN OUR LIVES!!!!!!!!!! DO IT!!!

    I respect your decision lucky, as I hope others will. We Are all dissapointed, but must stay positive!

    This has been a fun 'free' tournament, but competitive to the point where you can practice good 'life' & 'achievement' skills!

    We are all Red Brothers, but lets face it, No-one knows anyone from adam[26] lol!! THAT is the Challenge!!

    If I were a respected close friend of yours, I would politley suggest to sleep off the dissapointment and re-consider my position in a couple of days!

    I would love to battle at your side on a table Sunday nite!! It all depends how important the challenge is to you!

    Whatever your decision, STAY POSITIVE!! I WILL!! I Hope ths REDTHREAD WILL TOO!

    GOOD LUCK BROTHER!!

    S hit happenz in Life!! MORE S hit happenz in Poker !! it's How we deal with it that maketh the Man!!

    I Know where you are at, been there...........Deep Breath.............. MOVE ON!!!

    GL, I Know u will succeed in puttin probs/beats far behind you

     

    IF.....

     


     

    IF you can keep your head when all about you
    Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
    If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
    But make allowance for their doubting too;
    If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
    Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
    Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
    And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:

    If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;
    If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;
    If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
    And treat those two impostors just the same;

    If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
    Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
    Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
    And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:

    If you can make one heap of all your winnings
    And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
    And lose, and start again at your beginnings
    And never breathe a word about your loss;

    If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
    To serve your turn long after they are gone,
    And so hold on when there is nothing in you
    Except the REDWill which says to them: 'Hold on!'

    If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
    ' Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch,
    if neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
    If all men count with you, but none too much;
    If you can fill the unforgiving minute
    With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
    Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
    And - which is more - you'll be a REDMan, my son!

    thats a big shame lucky, all i will say on the matter. i know what you mean as when me and you were heads up countless times i would check all the way with a better hand, obv if you bet i probably would have called due to knowing i was ahead but other examples of the best hand does win. all down to the RNG which is same anywhere so if your not happy love you still contributing to the forums and the heads up competition and just play freebies etc and play for fun , the only thing i say as i have on a area 51 software thread is its all totally random so no way they can make the worse hand win it just happens as is a game of chance. personally i think you should play out the rest of the tourney lucky and just enjoy it you could earn valuable points or even money and i know you can do it because your not a bad player

    I must apologise
    I did not realise you were a red team member until the hand when i hit a wheel, i put my cursor over your avatar to see how many chips you had and spotted it.
    I did not shove only min raised, i would have and was sure you would have called
    You were on my right and raising my BB nearly every time so did not suspect you were a red team member
    i am also unsure of the etiquette when playing with team members

    Well said Gary, thanks for that post,

    There is No rule/etiquette really in team poker, I guess it is new to us all!

    All we ask is that team common sense prevails, but if unsure, as you were here, on team membership, you SHOULD play your normal aggressive[or passive] game without criticism!! Unfortunately i believe Lucki has no chat at pres, so just a case maybe of 'unlucky' Lucki..lol..hopefully we've chatted & we HAVE sorted!

    Lots of good points have been made in earlier posts, but even with good team intentions, we may come unstuck!

    Areas to help can be.

    Quick Timer use to help teammate miss blind raise
    Slow timer use to ladder shortstack teammate up thru bubble or level
    Slow timer use if table weighted RED 4-2 /5-1 to ladder all up.
    Checking down when in pot against only teammates
    Calling an opponents small all-in, by multiple REDZ.... then checking down, risky but can work!
    Early doors, make sure Red aggression gets the 'Away' blinds, make sure you know who's Red if poss

    BUT MOSTLY TO STAY POSITIVE WITH OTHER COMRADES, EVEN IF YOU THINK PLAY QUESTIONABLE!!

    DISPUTES SMALL & LARGE WILL HAPPEN IN A COMPETITIVE ENVIROMENT, THEY HAVE WITH OTHER TEAMS!

    We have kept ours to a respectful minimum! AND Hopefuly always re-solved them constructively, as Here!!


    MOST IMPORTANT WE ALL MOVE FORWARD TOGETHER!! WELL DONE TEAM RED!!!!!!!!!!

    We have a REAL strong chance in finishing in the top 2 here....

    Thanks Captain
    I appreciate the points and advice you have given, it is what is left out of the detail by my fellow team member that defines the post.

    i am a team player and will do all i can for the reds to prevail so will forget this exchange and support the team, after all there is no I in TEAM.

Like no mention of the 240 bet into my BB on the river to try and steal and nothing in the chat box Also the fact that i was being min raised almost every hand and when i did find a playable hand, the player 2 to my left a maniac who pushed na all in donk bet pretty much every time and had got lucky twice so out chipped both of us i am a team player and will do all i can for the reds to prevail so will forget this exchange and support the team, after all there is no I in TEAM.  Gary
