TREVOR HARRIS FRIDAY CHALLENGE

edited January 2011 in Poker Chat

Greetings all (and especially to everyone I met up at Newcastle at the weeeknd),

The powers that be at Sky Poker have bitten the bullet and got me back on the Play the Presenter trail.

The conversation went something like:

Sky Claire: Would you like to get back on Play the Presenter Trevor?

Trevor: Great - I'm presuming this will be cash poker Claire.

Sky Claire: Don't be silly - we want to see if you can play sit n go's as well as cash!

Trevor: Gee thanks!


So the upshot is as follows:

Over the next three Fridays I'll be playing a variety of sit and go's with a maximum buy in of £5. These will be both hold em and omaha and also include some double your money games.

I am starting with a bank of £100 - the challenge is to see whether I can show an overall profit over the three Fridays (15 hopurs of play total from 7pm until midnight).

Your task - should you wish to accept it - is to stop me making any profit and possibly bust me completely!

I will be joining these sit and go's at random so if you are on the site on Friday you'll spot me trying to show that cash players can succeed in sit and go's.

Come and have a go if you think you're hard enough!!!!

Trev

    Probably no HU doh - obviously I want to involve as many Sky Poker players as I can - although maybe we will have 1 HU on final Friday.....if I am still solvent!

    Ladies & Gents,

    Just to remind you that my bankroll challenge begins in just under 2 hours.

    Remember - I'm going to playing a variety of sit and goes and double your moneys with a maximum buy in of £5.

    Can I make a proft over 3 Fridays play? It's your job to stop me....

    See you at the tables.

    Hi all,

    Thanks to everyone who played sit n go's with me last night (I think Vince played almost every single one and Greg wasn't far behind).

    After a sticky start where the Hoggster ownned me in both the high and low hand in an Omaha hi-lo game my JJ then stood up against his AQ in hold em and I managed a small reward for second in the game.

    I-bluff then spanked me again 30 minutes later but a reasonably strong late rally saw me cash in a couple of DYM games so the overall result is:

    Down £11 - there is a slight stewards though as I should get £2.20 back for a game where the site was down for a brief time.

    Roll on next Friday.

    It was great fun Trev, i am sure that next week you will start to make monies!, as long as you avoid Vince lol.

    Hey Trev

    Arsenal to beat the Hammers 3-0 tonight? Nasri, Van Persie and Fabregas thats what I'm hoping anyway as all 3 are in my dream team. Could be a different story as Arsenal have a weak back line for the fixture especially now Sagna is out.

    You looking forward to it? Whats your prediction? And do you think Spurs could give Man Unitd our first defeat of the season?!

    Hi James,

    I think we'll feel stung by the dire display at Ipswich and will probably win comfortably - amazingly Carlton Cole is the only man in the entire Hammers squad who's ever scored a goal against the Gunners! 3-1 would be my correct score prediction.

    As for Spurs v Man Utd it's tricky - you'd have to think that Spurs have their best chance in years to turn your boys over but they always seem to come up short against United (remember that game a few years back where Spurs were 3-0 up at half time and lost 5-3!) At the risk of splinters in the backside I'm going for the draw - 2-2.

    Just four DYMs for me although I did manage a 100% record.
    Thanks to Sky Poker for this radical new bonus scheme; I'll let someone else enjoy Trevor's generosity next week.

    I should of put a bet on Trev, shame I've quit sports betting. Although I am allowing myself one last bet this season on Charlie Adam for Goal of the Season and for him to score in his own half!

    2-2 is a good prediction I think. I'm gonna predict Spurs with a 2-1 win tommorow with Van der Vaart getting the winner I just think if we are going to lose it is going to be to a team with pace who move the ball around the pitch fast! Spurs are my 2nd favourite team suprisingly :)

    So that's 2 points back on you James - if we keep playing well our collision in April at The Emirates willbe massive! Especially if you are still unbeaten at that point.....

    Spurs are still too inconsistent....City too negative away, Chelsea too old.....
