Thanks I'm running good at the moment playing really patient and my reads are nearly always spot on.

I'm out in 3rd.

Guy to my right had been raising me a lot and given I was short stack I had folded a lot to him.

Anyway I pushed with J 10 and he had AK this time.

Still 238.40$ for my troubles isn't too bad

You should stick peoples top cashes on the first page, a mini hall of fame of sorts.

I agree

Thats a massive cash! Well done! My best was my £100 live tournament win....

Thanks mate thats my 2nd big cash of the weekend bringing me to about 330$ this weekend in cashes

The 1st page im going to revamp guys.

I like the cashes idea like an all time money list.

Any more suggestions?

I'm looking to update the 1st page in full this Friday coming when i'm off work.

I still think all Matrix winners should be listed, said that a while back.

Even though you're yet to win?

Also massive tourney wins. I know you don't have much time at the moment; but if you want get a mod to make me the opening poster and I'll sort it out; you get on with organising the GRSOP.

Here's what I can find for Matrix winners:

I WOZ ROBBED WEEK 6.

I decided to enter the $30+3, 250K guaranteed on pokerstarrs earlier as I was feeling lucky.
Over 20,000 people entered with the top 4500 getting paid and the prize money was over $610,000.

I was doing very well all the way up until I reached the money (I was top 50 out of 20,000 for a lot of the tournament)and then I moved tables and got sat next to someone who just wouldn't fold. I first tried bluffing a few times and ended up losing lots of chips to them even though they also had poor cards, so I just tried waiting for some good hands but they never came. Ended up going out in around 3400th place with AJ vs 88 earning me $36, so about $3 profit for 4 hours work

Some people would kill for $0.75 an hour.

Unlucky, Gaz. It sucks when you plough away for hours only for some idiot to ruin all your good work.

@ "The Durrrstein War"

Daniel really is getting some torrid luck this year.

"Peter Eastgate makes it three and a half thousand which is very close to thirty-five hundred"

Thanks for the links.

Daniel is not getting some luck because he's not playing very well. Stacking of with top pair is not great there, when you consider that Ziggy's been playing fairly tight postflop.

Eastgate though, I apologise. He is not the super nit I presumed, he's opened up a bit and used his image nicely.

Looking forward to next weeks episode, Hachem will get the rage at least once. Shame Laak is playing.

Won an LPPL game!
