Basically, although I have jank, I DO actually hold a gutshot straight draw. I dont know that Rex has that same draw also, but with such a low flop and a big blind hand which is pretty organised - its reasonable for me to bet that. If Rex calls, I can still be saved by a 6. I KNOW I'm on a semi-bluff, but sadly on this occasion, Rex has the top pair AND the gutshot straight draw. If I was a worse player, I would have bet that flush at the end, and lost even more money. I'm only in the hand with jank because it was the big blind.

I won't float there even with overcards most of the time. No flush draws and the straight means even hitting my overs I could be beat or even outkicked because he certainly COULD bet overs @ flop. My point is I am not calling without a hand so betting the turn is v bad. Flop bet is fine, well, I would fold lots of the time but I wouldn't make said flop bet against myself. If I don't have a hand you know I have check fold selected already

It was poor play from me, but I'd seen you in that game calling a lot, and you are definitely capable of floating. Its all easier in hindsight anyways.

I'm going to make a DML playbook, I've decided.

Also, I'll be playing two tables and making a video sometime this afternoon.

I really think you are mistaken. I'm probably the tightest player at the table until 100/200. Watch my video to check my thoughts on calling flop bets with high card.

Also I've moved my money out of pokerstars. Played lots of HU at the weekend and I realised there is no point waiting for the bonus to clear since I will make more money from 50% rakeback at iPoker anyway.

If I can get 50% for anyone else I will do. It's a brilliant deal.

I feel gooseberry fool about the way I played last night. I was rusty, I was poor, wasn't handling the four tables well - and I didnt have much fortune either. But don't let that lead you to think that I'm a diabolical player. I'll just have to try and prove that next week when I'm back in the swing of things again.

I don't think you're a diabolical player! I just like joking about it. :shifty:

I was pretty diabolical last night by my own standards. I'm being the critical one here, not anyone else. I need Friday to roll around so I can get my bankroll going and I can try and persuade myself again that I belong in this thread.

Also, is Satriales the first to win two Matrixes? I think we should update the first post with all the Matirx winners in order thus far....

Played 4 pretty awful SnGs a few minutes ago, but in a 2.20$R qualifier to a $55R SCOOP event, running 21/52 with 12 entries to the tournament. Due to the whole rebuy and 6 handed system it's pretty deep stacked and patient.

I tuned into FullTilt earlier happened to catch Antonius losing £140,000 with one of the worst bluffs I have ever seen! It was poor!

Good shizz man! I'm runing in my favourite 2.75$ tourney at the moment, and despite only having three good sets of cards, they've been AA,KK and QQ and I doubled up almost each time, leaving me on 12.5k, blinds at 125/250. I'm in 139/1320 ish atm.

43rd out of 1,086 people gets me.....nothing.

And I got donked out by Q6 when I had AJ!

Still, at least I feel like Im back to where I was.

I hate that, still 60/40 though. I got knocked out with AQ versus K8 pre-flop. He got quad 8s :lol:

Now up to 18k, 94/1000
