    That's a great example of variance Mr Max.

    By spreading your risk across several Tourneys, you give yourself a better chance of turning a profit. Tournament Poker is 100% about variance.

    I did PTP on Thursday, & done my money in the 5-00, but a nice cash in the Deepstack sent me to bed in profit. Happy days.

    I'm doing Play The Presenter this evening (Monday 8th June) & have registered for the 8.15 SleepyStacky, & the 9pm Bounty Hunter, so that's £17 invested.

    From 7pm until about 8pm, I'll be playing a selection of cash Tables, & I'll return to the Cash Tables after I exit the Tourneys.

    Hope to see a few of you on the Tables, or on the Rail, in the Chat-Box. Remember, if you cannot, or don't want to, play any Tourneys, you are most welcome to just chill in the Chat Box.

    The Default Setting for the Chat-Box has it at the bottom of the Table, very small, but you can enlarge it considerably, which makes it much more user-friendly, by going to "OPTIONS" & ticking "Enlarge Chat-Box".

    Note, though, that there is no chat facility in Mini-View Mode if playing several Tables - you'd be too busy to chat anyway! - so if I'm not chatting, it's because I'm multi-Tabling on mini-View.

    Another thing I find handy is to select 'chat only' in the drop down menu underneath the chatbox. If there's a lot of conversation it's much easier to follow it this way. And if you need to check what happened in a hand poker-wise, you can always click back to 'full detail' temporarily and 'scroll lock' to go back through the last few moments.

    Good shout Rich. By selecting "CHAT ONLY" it gets rid of all the hand details, which tend to clog up the Chat-Box. The Chat-Box is exactly that then - 100% Chat.

    nightmare in the deep stack and bounty hunter!!

    lost internet connection for around 30mins, which means i had to push like mad in bounty!! was going ok, upto 7000 chips then ran A10 into A7 and he hit the 7.

    Then ran AJ into 7s in deep stack and the 7s held up.

    lets hope i can make some money back in the velocity!!!

    OK, I'm currently limbering up for my Play The Presenter session this evening.

    I've definitely signed up for the 8.15pm Deep Stack so I can once again outlast Tikay (he hates that) and I've also bought in to the Open.

    I'm on form for the Open, as the last time I played it  I cashed for £59.

    I think my best finish is 19th, but that must have been at least a year ago, and normally I can't cash in this event to save my life.

    All of that will change tonight of course ;)

    Come and say hello in the chatbox. My alias is the astoundingly cryptic 'RichOrford'.

    Hope to see you at the tables...

    Am going to give the 5-00 a go, (9pm) & the Deepstack at 8.15.

    Rich Orford is in both, too. 

    Who will Last-Longer in both? Yes, that's obvious, but I'll play with one eye closed, to give him a chance. 

    In fact, I'll give him an aggregate 50 place start, (finishing positions in both Comps added together) & still beat him.

    Good Luck to all who play tonight. See you there.

    Rich finished 132nd in the 5-00, & 61st in the Deepstack. So that's an aggregate of 193.

    I finished 222nd in the 5-00, (sigh), & 8th in the Deepstack. So an aggregate of 230.

    Take away the 50 start, that puts me on 180, so I won by 13 places.

    Yes, but I was multi-tabling, chatting to players and doing live phonecalls to the studio at the same time, whilst you were wrapped up in your blanket on your rocking chair playing with no distractions other than that fit nurse who comes round with your pills every day.

    If you factor all that into the equation I think you'll find I won, by 27 places.

    Sigh.

    Look Orford, I've had enough of your excuses. Let's settle this for once & for all.

    You are duly challenged to a Heads-Up match, at DTD, after the end of play on Day One. Spectators, Railers & above all, Hecklers, are all invited to watch your inevitable humiliation.

    To make it fair, I'll play with one eye closed.

    Do you accept?* 

    * Acceptance required within 1 minute, or the offer becomes null and void, & I win by default.
