11th-20th pays like 60. Only goes up at final table.

Currently 13/19. Pretty crapshooty now anyway. Good time for rockets IMO.

Break and I'm 16/16 with like -50 big blinds. It's so stupid now lol.

Nice one, my man. I did check YouTube but instead of searching I just went to GSN profile to see if it was uploaded.

Can't wait for the prop bets.

I ran pretty unlucky today on PartyPoker, but then I was due some variance. Roll is at about $285.

Bit of both IMO. Lederer is certainly at fault on the flop for not putting a bet in. He should know what Dwan is capable of and most of the time I probably wouldn't give Dwan much respect when he raises because so often he has nothing. His mistake was not going all in after Dwan raised to 65k (it should be noted that Dwan is probably the only player at the table who I would go all in against at that stage).

Good episode. Miles better than last week's which was one of the worst I've seen.

Just played a 9-man SnG and came 4th. Basically there was one idiot who went all-in literally every single hand. He was always behind when people called him but somehow won almost every showdown. We get down to 4 players and I eventually call one of his all-ins with AJs, he has J2o and manages to hit a 2 :twisted:

Sykes is at the final table of a 180 man tournament on Stars.

Brilliant episode of HSP, had a little bit of everything really!

All-in or fold is the only way! 6th for $18 without calling preflop. Not bad.

Currently playing a play money 45 person SnG on PokerStars, eight people out on the first hand three of which came from my table, now at 19 left after 10 hands. No wonder some people get gargantuan stacks after about three hands. :lol:

Do you play for money at all or are you just starting up?

Been playing for three years just never got around to playing for money. I'll get around to it at some point.

6th/180 and only $18? The buyin must have been proper low then.

I've really not been playing much poker. Over the last couple of days though I have been playing some draw and stud. The games are very weak even at reasonable stakes and so many people make massive basic errors. Made ~£20 so far from fairly casual playing. Maybe I just run good? Only problem is traffic is super low.

I'm currently doing a $3.50 6-max shootout tournament.

I won the 1st and 2nd tables, now I'm just waiting for the other tables to finish and I'll be on the final table. 3rd place is $100, 1st and 2nd is entry to a $215 tourney (but if I win that I'll just unregister and use the $215 on SnG's)
