Come on Sykes. You know I don't mean post things like that.

1 is just a cooler and you don't need any input.

2 you know was fine. Just make a note that he calls of 20BB 3bet OOP with 22 and move on.

I don't want to see you losing and nor does anyone else but you know what I mean by post hands. Hopefully that video comes along soon yeah?

Also STOP PLAYING CASH ON POKERSTARS.

Played a few MTT today. Cashed in the smallest buyin one but did relatively well in others, just got unlucky. Going to Isle now with Aaron for the £50+6 dealer dealt £5,000 GTD that apparently will get overlay. SWEET.

Also have a shark on SS now for scheduled. 8-)

Just lost an annoying large amount play Stud 8 5/10 with out really thinking, because it's limit I find myself on auto pilot half the time thinking well it's only 1 bet. Pretty much busted my Stars account again.

I also have taken 2 grand out of my roll to buy Vodafone shares with. That's a hot top btw.

Out in 7th in the titan game.

button shoves i call for my remaining seven big blinds and the big blind also calls.

Button K9 big blind QJ. QJ called for 40% of his stack and spiked. The whole table was like wtf how do you call. And he said:

'it was for value'


Is this right or wrong?

Just no rakeback. If you are going to put in large amounts of hands you are throwing away moneys.

EDIT: Yeah both busto btw. Totally card dead for me and Aaron AK < A9

Out of the $10 freeze in 14th for like $13 or something. AT < K9. Stack would take me to about 8th.

Continue to destroy rebuy though. 1/27 with 42k and avg stack 12k.

Also 2 more started, a $5 and $10 freeze.

Yeah guy HU was lol bad shoving like 30BB deep and limping pots. I just ran so unbelievably gooseberry fool HU. Won't complain though.

Yeah the RB didn't really care. Just looking to chip up.

Currently in a good spot in a $5 freeze though. 3/17 and ITM.

EDIT: Or not. AA < KK for 80k pot

Sick! Go Aaron!

Pokerstars is going to be the best choice of poker client for most people. I'd certainly recomend it. Good support, lots of players and ease getting your money in and out. Hope that helps. :)

Also does anyone know if there's any bonus I can get when purchasing Hold Em Manager? Refer a Friend %, Bonus Membership to a training site etc?
