Congrats! Absolutely made up for you - grandpa even sent me a text at 1am this morning just to let me know!

What is this - rubdown tikay day?

Enough. It's bad enough having "him" gloating for England without all this.

... and boy, can this kid multi-table. Final table in the 7:30pm deepie too - I'm not sure but I think that he may have been the only member of the SkyPoker team to achieve that feat tonight. ;-)

Out of Order!

It's true, Rich & I were, as usual, jostling for last place in the 7.30 Deepie with 7 players left, on the Final Table Bubble. And my 8-8 got done over by Scotty77's A-6 which housed up. So Lord Gloat gave me stick over that, too - before exiting in 6th place, sigh.

But I liked Nutter's comment in the Chat-Box. "bring the money to Manchester for the PTP Sit & Go's". Not daft, that Ben.

So Rich, tell us about the hand where your 5-4 walked into 10-8 - all-in Pre-Flop. And the Board came paint-paint-paint-paint-paint. And BOTH of you ended up playing the Board! (Chop-chop).

Nothing short of embarrassing.

Dont worry TK..your still the Keith Richards of poker...the grizzled legendary veteran..Maybe minus the drugs abuse and falling out of trees. Actually the more I think about it, the liking of trains and bridges is hardly rock n roll. I'l settle on the Pele of poker...maybe you should appear in some viagra adverts like the great man.

Maybe Orford should spend some of his winnings getting rid of that Frankenstein haircut?

Sky poker must be low on cash or somet and fixed the tourney for him to win.

Thought I'd repost this here..Just incase anyone missed it


TIKAY:

As to Orford, well, it pains me to say it. But he played it technically perfect, from start to finish. Like you, & many, many, others, I Railed him from 3 or 4 Tables out, & he was Billy Low Stack all the time. down to as little as 4 or 5 x BB's several times, he clung & clung, just waited & waited, tikay stylee, for the right spots to push. I don't buy this "you HAVE to shove regardless when down to 10 x BB" nonsense - you MUST wait for the "right spots", it takes great nerve & patience, & Rich did it brilliantly. In fact, technically, I think he played it absolutely perfectly, he did not make one mistake, or miss one "spot".

There, I've been nice to him. That's the last time. Ever.

Lisa,

Thats bang out of order.

I deliberately Posted it on another Thread, where few would see it, & then you go & stick it on here, where Lord Gloat, aka Lord Smirk, aka Frankenstein Haircut, will see it.

Expect a hard time on Saturday night young Lady.

1.45am and can I sleep? Can I ever! Absolutely thrilled and a little bit in shock! Thankyou to everyone who railed me tonight- really, really appreciate it. And thanks to the other players in the game who were great fun and played great poker too. Got off to a flier in the Open but ended up one of the short stacks from about 100 players left down to 8th. Completely card dead for ages but just hung in there till I got a couple of nice breaks and then everything went right on the final table. What can I say? I've just seen a pig fly past the window along with Elvis, and the Loch Ness Monster. The moon also appears to be a healthy blue colour! Chuffed to pieces- and cheers to the Sky Poker community. You're the best!
