good luck tonite to all going to luton
thanks for this great idea tikay
love the vegas idea as well
Gaining some ground now, thank you.
The Tweets will commence at about 8pm.
Just for the craic, I may describe my table companions using a little artistic licence. Be like people-watching via Twitter.
Look out for some odd descriptions.......hope none of them "follow me" on Twitter, I'll be so dead.
Will someone be able to put all the runners on here in a table and have an LL for fun?
Very best of luck at Luton - If they don't hand over the chips quickly then bore them with some train spotting jokes,,,,,,,,that should do the trick.
As I'm not yet apt at the multi table thing, I will soley be trying to be a suvivor in the survior tonight, which I may or may not survive lol
Thanks Guys, good luck to you playing the TOTTY, too.
If we must use the current vernacular, "let's do this thing". Err, How many times?
I'll be heading up there shortly.
Unfortunately, I won't be able to play in the TOTTY, but I just wanted to wish you good luck at Luton, Tikay - not that you'll need it of course! This is a great gesture and deserves to be well supported.

I'm in gl gl and please....DON'T let Edna get ya :-) xx
I iz in innit!
good luck tonight tikay, nice gesture you middle aged man you.
ul tikay, shame it didn't come off, but a good idea all the same. Next week?
Afternoon.
The "experiment" went well. Well, when I say well.....
1) It never attracfted extra runners to the TOTTY.
2) I failed to cash at Luton.
3) So there will be no "Freeroll Freeroll", I'm afraid.
That apart, the plan worked perfectly.......
PS - Well done to all who Cashed in the TOTTY, & thanks for all the re-tweets & Twitter messages. I can't really reply to them all, there are scores of them, but thank you very much. I quite enjoyed doing the tweet updates, too, though I think I can do them better. All good practice, though.
Sadly, the notion that we could repeat the idea (players get a free a stake in me, & any cashes invested in a Community Freeroll) got knocked back by the Legal peeps yesterday, as, technically, it could be seen as "promoting overseas gambling", which is a big no-no, so that's that, it seems. I may still be able to do something, though, as long as it does not involve Sky Poker & I do it "privately". I'll be going out there early to play a few Deepstacks & stuff "on my own account", so maybe we can do something. We shall see.
Ryan, aka Scotty77, was there, & he was going along nicely on my Table before he had a shocking 5 minutes, it was so bad he had to laugh. To be right, he took it like a proper bloke & just shrugged his shoulders & said "good luck all".
He had a pretty big stack, & made a tidy bet pre-flop, he never counted the chips, just stuck a big chunk in. Geezer behind him then jams - looked incrdibly strong, & Ryan sighed & said "guess I've been caught, but I'm pot-stuck, I call". Ryan had 9-9, geezer had A-Q, & the Q binked, so Scotty has done half his stack.
Now he has to get a move on, & he's Raising evey pot for fun, & mullering the Table, great to watch, too.
So, on his BB I think, he announces "RAISE", (he is in Seat 9), but unbenown to him, the geezer in Seat 1 has already shoved for what is almost all of Ryan's stack. Ryan's fault, he knows that, so he sighs & is forced to match the shover's bet. Shover had 8-8, Ryan had 10-5.......
As it happens, Ryan hit the Ten on the River, but by then, 8-8 man had housed up.
I went & played £2 £5 DC after, & Ryan played some Hold-Em Cash with the likes of Vinni & Claw75 from next door.
A good night.
As Ryan said "is it worth dropping the £5.50 to gain entry into a possible 1k freeroll with less than 25 entrants?"
Yes! Even if you couldn't play in the tournament!
Promoting overseas gambling, it was Luton not the IOW surely? ;-)
