shifted all my hypers volume onto another site, as the rake is much lower in hypers, the software is amazing and i've got a good rake-back deal too. action is slower due to it being a US facing site and the timezone difference. and in general its a little tougher than here, but the other benefits make up for it.
also i have been brutalised here in hypers, around 15BI dropped in 100 games. felt like i had forgotten how to play. so the change came at a good time, just from a mindset point of view.

still enjoying the turbos on here, the structure is much nicer here than on the other site.
had some funny games. had an MTT reg call me all kinds of donkey / poor player names and generally being rude as he beat me 4-0, all the games being unavoidable flips - really doesnt bother me, especially when his HU game was so average, even by my middling standards. ive sat him every time ive seen him in the lobby since and he's surprisingly quiet in the chat box now as he declines rematch after rematch.
never will understand the point of being rude at the tables, especially when you are beating an opponent. just shows a lack of class. i think he was tyring to tilt me into rematching. well careful what you wish for innit.

chat can also give so much away i've found. had a player berate me for 3 bet shoving AQ over his flop check raise on a TKx board. i hit a jack v his Kx and he goes mental at me for shipping a "gut shot". i guess he never has Tx , a draw or a bluff in that spot then: noted. also guess he's never shoving with similar equity either: noted.
also got berated for calling K6s at 8bb. the guy was very competent and aggressive in the deeper stacks, i assumed he was competent and aggressive shallow. apparently not. again his chat tells me all kinds: he's never calling K6 there: noted. that he's never shoving a range that K6 beats: noted. and that he doesnt understand short stack SHOVE/FOLD poker: noted.
thanks for the info, and the insults, innit.

anyways rambled on enough. thanks to anyone that made it to the end. hope to rail some TPT final tables later.
Everyone is on WPN nowardays! I spun $200 up playing cash, but the 'jackpot fee' on top of the traditional rake on the cash tables is grim so I took the roll off. Fees to deposit, fees to play, fees to withdraw. (I was with the ladspoker skin) It's a shame because the games themselves are awesome As you say, SNGS are fine though. MTTs would be also if they didn't all start after 9pm to suit the Americans. I bet they're a goldmine. Did you sort 888 out ok Rik? Chisnall has just let my acca down, if he can't beat Taylor when he's missing doubles like that, I don't think he'll ever beat him again. GL all playing tonight. Posted by DOHHHHHHH
I deposited £100 ($160)......the bonus the offered me was 100% increase given in $10 increments for every 100 points earned.
I played a couple of $2 mtt's and then withdrew the money again....haha. I perhaps should have given it a proper go but it just felt strange, trying to find my way around, figure out which mtts are worth playing etc. I may give it serious go in the future, dunno. Guess I don't like change, it took me long enough to get used to sky's new software!

Saw some great games being played tonight by lots of different TPTers tonight. (Zoed, Daiw, Matt237, Kopite, mattprawn and lots of others!!).
Thanks for the rail in my game tonight (daiw, JJ, Zoed, Matt237, mattprawn, kopite, waller02 and others who I love just as much but just can't put names to railers tonight lol). I might not have cashed in top 12 but I had a blast playing tonight - and the rail was awesome. I did win 7 heads though for £152.35 and as I won entry via a £12 satellite I'm made up with that result.
Good luck all tonight and tomorrow. Hope to catch up again soon.
Consolation on the night but really happy with how i played this. Sorry Dale for knocking you out :-( Thanks for great rail Zoe/Jj/Rose/Dai/Teddy + any others i forgot

not been around as much recently.

What site are you playing Teddy? All the best with it
Min cash from in a £200 GTD

Gl at the tables all
mainly US players, got a very small player base though.
Everyone is on WPN nowardays!
I spun $200 up playing cash, but the 'jackpot fee' on top of the traditional rake on the cash tables is grim so I took the roll off.
Fees to deposit, fees to play, fees to withdraw. (I was with the ladspoker skin)
It's a shame because the games themselves are awesome
As you say, SNGS are fine though. MTTs would be also if they didn't all start after 9pm to suit the Americans. I bet they're a goldmine.
Did you sort 888 out ok Rik?
Chisnall has just let my acca down, if he can't beat Taylor when he's missing doubles like that, I don't think he'll ever beat him again.

Ugh that bonus is kak. No chance of an MTT player playing through $10 nevermind the full $100.
nobs!
Know what you mean about change, especially that 888 software. I'm not a huge fan. I like throwing eggs at people though.
A million complaints every day here, but stll can't beat sky! haha.
