Sky Poker Teams - can you beat this?

edited March 2012 in Poker Chat

Did you know that Members from Team51 have won the Main Event for the last TWO consecutive evenings?

On Wednesday, Ebberdon took it down, & last night, young Lyonsbob got the lot.

Oh, & for those who continue to insist that poker is luck not skill, take a look at the Sharkscope Graphs for BOTH of them - very impressive. Steady cashes, regular & steady, ending up in huge profits.

Congrats to them both, & to Team 51, who I'm sure will be busy chirping today. And why not?

Can they make it three in a row tonight?

    So, to the other Teams, here's the thing - can YOU beat that?

    What are your best Main Event performances as a Team?

    Are you going to try harder, & best those T51 guys?

    Or are they the best Team?.....

    Even Hitman Harvey can't beat that. Or can he?.......

    Excellent performance by 2 of the best players not only in Team51 but on the site. Both players get involved with all the Team tourneys (DTD & Orfordable), and deserve all the accollades thrown in their direction.

    Well done guys and keep it up.

    btw Michael (Lyonsbobfishscousecorner etc) is also very keen on charity work. He has on occasion been known to step out wiith lesser priviliged people, even from other teams!! 

    Team51 you know it makes sense.

    Pah ,just variance. A Team 51er won't win another tourney now for at least a gazillion years.

    Bink- a term used by poker players to indicate that a suck out/luckboxing/getting it in bad and still winning scenario has occured. Nowt to do with skill. Sums up the 51ers!!!!!
    A pint with you says no Team51er wins an MTT tourney by the end of March????

    **a Team 51 only MTT is not allowed**

    This is the team that has won no end of ME on SKY, the very first UKOPS winner and as a team has won nearly £200k in prize money in the last 9 months. See the team challenge thread on Team Talk for the exact details.......

    No skill required in that, is there?????

    OK, let's test theory by looking back in time to find the last Team51 ME win before these latest 2.

    Found it! We won the ME on Saturday too (take another bow Eberdon).

    So that's 3 ME wins in the last 6 days! 2 of those to Ebberdon.  

    And before anybody says it's because we have so members, we only had 7 in the field last night out of 480 entrants. So that's 1.45% of the field, or 1 in every 69 players.

    Make it worthwhile then, if a 51er wins a MTT between now and the end of March you donate £51 to a charity of your choice, and if no-one does I will personally donate the money.

    And I have no doubt many of the 51ers will do the same

    But it will only cost you £51

    Needed expert advice on Cash out curses and thought Area 51, with all it's level headed,logical thinkers was the the right place to get such advice.lol

    On a serious note, poker is a game of information and anytime I can stop my opponents from getting that info for free, ie locking sharkscope stats, I'll do it.
