Complete disaster my end definitely need some advice from you guys for online tourneys, I can't play tonight as I've been given the thumbs up by the Mrs to go to aspers in newcastle tomorrow Posted by justmartin
Yes I was I usually play the 7-15 and the 7-45 deepies, along with a few other TPTer's.
So your close to or in Newcastle then? There is a trip to Aspers organised for March 20th and 21st, with about 70 Sky players confirmed so far. If you are interested I will let you have more details. There is also a Facebook group set up for it as well.
Good night for me this evening, despite a very early exit from the main.

In Response to Re: Official - TPT (Team Poker Titans) Tribulations & Cashes : can't say i've changed much how i play them so i guess my sat strategy guide still holds (previous copy Dec 2013) GELDY's Sat Strategy Guide seems to have taken on a life of its own! It was nothing more than a few scribbled notes in reply to someone who asked for some advice. However, based on the overwhelming demand for it, and to avoid having my "TPT most helpful player's" gong being rescinded I will copy it below. There are different types of satellites. I will talk about the regular semis for the main & 9pm event. These pay 1:5 and are great events. I will comment on my play in the 7pm semi for the 9pm BH. The SPT QF & Semi play like these, so you can practise on these first. Three phases 1. Initial phase - play your normal game. You are wanting to build a chip stack to help you through the next phases – I’ve been playing the 7pm semi tonight and was down to 1200 now back up to 2400 in the first 30mins – now 3700 as a 1200 stack shoves A7o into my QQ 2. Middle phase – now you want to tighten up a bit. You don’t need to take big risks to get a big stack as you don’t need to build a winning stack – just an ok one. But note who is already tight and be happy to minbet them and fold to a raise. Key not to spew chips at this stage. Don’t need to go for the marginal double up. Just broke this rule by calling a shove with my min-raised ATs. Thought he was stealing – but he had AK – I rivered a T – but should never have called - now 7000. Generally don’t call shoves unless you are v strong or they are small stacks. Just minraised utg with KJs. 2 small stacks shoved – had to call the extra 800 they have AK & AJ lol – down to 4600 3. Generally getting close to the bubble (maybe at the 1:2 stage). Need to pick spots. If someone has the stack to shove over you maybe better to shove first. Much better shoving than calling. Note particularly peeps who bet fold to raises or who don’t defend their blinds. Stack back up to 9000 from picking up some bets and some blinds. Just had A4 on the button. Shoved and small stack bb calls with J7 and hits. Now 7800 and 7/12 with 10 paid. Blinds 400/800 so cannot just coast. Now have 77 – utg minbets – if it folds to me I have a decision – it does. Hmmm – hope he can b/f – he is a good player so I take the chance. He has AA and sets up so that’s the end of that. Sometimes they do have it. Maybe I should have folded but maybe that’s result orientated. Bubble bursts with a small stack KK losing to 88. Last few bubble can last a while on these so do need to take some chances.

Hi Geldy
I've been playing a lot of satellites of late, with some mixed success. This is a great summary of tactics imho.
I know I'm a little more reckless than most, but the only tweak I'd make to your in advice is in the late middle stage (2 in your summary above) where you recommend tightening up a bit. In most of the sats I play (UKPC at present, but typically 1 in 5 places paid anyhow) a stack is hardly ever going to be enough in the mid stages to allow passive play through to a qualification. On that logic I'm looking to get a shift on at this point, trying to build a stack where I can really dominate the table as the later stages arrive and control my destiny.

that's a good point Matt.
In fact i would be a little more aggressive than my usual play in all stages of the sat, although the aggression will be focused on winning pots as against stacks.

First time I have had the patience not to bust a deepstack early for a while...reached FT had two short stacks laddering up and shoved 88 into AQ, could maybe have found a better spot, but it was after 1am...
Best of luck to ALL TPTers playing the Monday Forum DTD Tournies Tonight.

Hi guys, I didn't make it to aspers on Saturday and honestly had a bit of a messy weekend, busted my bankroll which was minimal anyway on bet and casino, if leeds didn't equalise on the 86th minute I would have been £800 up but hey ho. Anyway not sure if I'm posting in right place for general discussion but means to the post is unfortunately I'm not now in the situation to play in the league or cash tourneys for another week until I'm back up on finances, but want to still be active player and get back in, confirmed a trip to aspers tomorrow night for deep stack 3pm £13 and £500 prize pool exciting stuff. In the meantime I'll keep showing my face on forum and play the free rolls for this week! Keep up the cashes guys, not sure how your doing it online but I'm sure I'll get there eventually!!
