Many many many congrats!! The fun seriously starts now (together with the sleepless nights, the dirty nappies, the non-stop craving for sleep lol - but also with the first smile, first tooth, first word, first steps etc).
Thanks a lot for kind words chaps. I've never really been very confident about my poker. I have some glaring leaks in cash and tourneys. In the Dyms and this is probably through the sheer volume of games, I feel the most confident. I keep waiting for the bubbie to burst. Whenever I have a losing session, I really start to doubt myself. By now I should be past all that but it's just the way I am. One thing that didn't help much was a forum reg who I always got on well with has really gone for me this month. Pretty much every game he has made comments about how the downswing will come soon. Plenty of comments about how badly I've played hands. I pointed out that I've played 8000 games and my stats should be fairly realistic at this stage. He replied that until I've played 10000 I shouldn't take much notice of ROI. Thought this was silly but he then claimed I'm delusional if I think i will continue with my results and I just don't understand math. Found it really disappointing and let it get to me a bit. Deregged all my games one night as I was just a bit fed up with it. I asked him to give it a rest and he said he was on a 600 game downswing and suggested a truce. A truce? I thought we were friends and I haven't made any derogatory comments towards him. It's made me quite sad. So, thanks again. It's nice when people are nice. Posted by Jac35
I know you said you used to get on, but personally when someones being an idiot in the chatbox i just turn the chat off and don,t respond. I did let it get to me for the first time in ages a cpl of weeks back and i let it affect my game. If you stop responding i find generally they will just leave it alone. You learn by your mistakes and i,d like to think nothing said in the chatbox can get to me anymore or affect my mindset

As usual, no skill on my part. Got lucky to double up and then got gifted another double when someone 3bet all in with zero fold equity against me with JQ. I had KK and fortunately there was little drama as I hit set on the flop.
Was pretty much able to fold my way through from there.
I'm actually going to keep it. I think most people have or will sell their's. The way I see it, at 2.00 I didn't have a PS4 and now I do. I wouldn't actually buy one but as a free gift I'll take it. Harry might even think I'm cool in a few years when he sees a Daddy has a nice console.
I have a PS3 with a few games. I'm just gonna chuck that in Ebay and happily take anything I get for it.
Quite chuffed with my afternoons work after having about 1.30 sleep in the last 2 days.
Delighted edrich got one too! He was grinding like a maniac to get into it and really deserved it for his efforts. I know others were too but he put in some crazy hours!
Congrats to you both and the rest of the other winners! Little bit jealous lol
Congrats on both achievments!! I've been umming and ahhing about what to do with my PS4, whether to sell it or keep it. On the one hand I barely play on my PS3 as it is with me only really using it for films/netflix etc... but like you put it, at 2.00 I had no PS4 and now I have one, and should just treat it as a free gift! I can live without the £400, and might just do the same and put my PS4 up on ebay and see how much I get for it
