I don't think there's ever going to be a time when everyone is going to be able to play.

Well, how about those of us who can play tommorow do, and we'll try and organize another one in the future?

I don't have a cash account yet but I might put some in for something like this. How about the next May bank holiday so we have a bit of time to organise it?

We could do it after (or instead of) the Matrix that way most of the usual people should be around.

I'm not really playing much at the moment so not going to re-deposit until like June ish.

Do it @ matrix time. I will probably be there. Will need staking though. (70/30)

About to cash in a 10c tournament on Pokerstars...

EDIT - 12th, the blinds got high and I didnt get the cards. Quadrupled my stake! I've got enough to afford a 50c tournament soon!

Hey there, Quick one.

Whats the best website for a poker amateur such as myself. Not looking to bet much more than a fiver a pop really. Ive used PKR.com before.

Well, the majority of us play at PokerStars. They've got cash games and tournements where you can buy in for a dollar, and I think the minimum deposit is only $10 too. But if there's any other site you're interested in, just post it, most of us have played on one site or another and shoudl be able to give you advice.

7pm for this tourney yeah?

7pm is good for me.

I am good for 7pm too.

I'll be there at 7pm. Can anyone stake me for 70/30?

Unless I do really well in this 10center I'm doing at the moment, I'm so broke its unreal...

Also, I am getting fed up of the LPPL. I have such awful results, and every time I'm seemingly miles ahead.

Today, I had pocket queens with blinds 75/150, and a stack of about 2500. A guy raises it to 300 ahead of me, so I decide to re-raise it to 800, trying to make it look like I wasn't that strong. He shoved, and although he could have had AK and it would mean a race, I called. He had K-Q, so hes on three outs and he hits his King on the flop, and celebrates it like he knew it was coming.

Other than my game I won, this two-monther I have had all my called all-ins if ahead massively lose, and if in a race/behind - win. I'm fed up with the bizarro logic, and I'd like it to straighten out. Big game tommorrow, as now only a Venue Champion win can realistically get me in. Get donked tommorrow, and I am fish food. Simple as.

Uh yeah I am also needing staking. Fairly sure drumstick will do so but if not anyone else? 70/30? I am running quite good at MTT atm remember?

Will also treat the money as if it's mine. I intend to do well!

Same goes for me, you'd get full commitment from me, that 30% would be massive to me at the moment! Thats unless I roll up to 4 dollars by then.

I will stake you.

I think Sykes will stake you DML. What's your roll?

I just played a $4 180-man as practice.

I got off to a bad start when I raised UTG with KK and someone shoved all-in with Q3o ( :fp:

). Two more queens came up and I was down to 300 chips. I was basically last the whole way through the tournament but somehow stayed in until it got down to the bubble (18 get paid). It got to a point where I had to make a move and I did so with 88 vs AQ but an Ace came up on the flop and I was out in 19th

I can probably stake a person or two in the $4 later, but I've not done it before so I don't know how to transfer funds. We can sort it out later if anyone needs it.

Unlucky, Gaz.

I would prefer not to what with having a smaller roll but as I say, if nobody else will I don't mind.

Requests -> Transfer Funds

Just playing some cash on will hill. $20NL since it should be easy and I don't have much of a roll anymore. Raise to 4BB with KJ. Some guy calls in position. Flop Q23 rainbow. I cbet. He calls. I check turn. He shoves. I fold.

Next hand KK. I do EXACTLY the same and he does too. Shoves turn with A high. I call. He hits the A. Back to running gooseberry fool. 8-)
