I'm trying to get my head around what happen last night before I posted
Well done all, only 1pt but 1pt is better than 0pt. We had 5 in the top 20, did not see the exit hands but this goes to show how tight this league is. Consistence is the key, be in the points every week then we won't be for away.

Hi Wayne
I really think we (as a team) need to clarify whether we are individuals going for the win or a team who try to get as many through to the points as possible.
Yorkie74 was berated and abused by a team-mate for calling a raise with KQ (how dare she play King rag) and ultimately cracking his AA in level 2 for only 1k of the 5k chipstack
Later she shoved AQ for 10bb only to be called by the AK of a teammate who claimed "I couldn"t fold"
Obviously she is mightily confused after spending most of the night avoiding confrontation with a team-mate to be stacked by one!!
Personally I would have folded the AK in that spot as I thought that was what we did in the team games, now not so sure?

Hi Dave
This is what i posted on page 3 of this thread
Tactics
Like in the first league, they is no team tactics as such. You pay your money you play as you see fit however this is advertised as a team game and as such I would like you to play for the team. What I mean by this is simply don"t go to battle against a team member, sure big hands will clash and we will take each other out at some point, just don"t run bluffs against each other. This becomes critical around the points bubble so get to know your team mates. I will start a thread each week to keep you up-to-date with who"s playing and how things are getting on in the game
I will give you a better response when I have time

As a cricketer who plays in a team all summer we win as a team and lose as a team, I believe this should be happening in the national league, if you find yourself in a hand against a team mate you should just check out.
There"s no point taking each other out as this does not benefit the team, if people feel they need to win as an individual then maybe they should not bother playing for the team and enter another event.
I feel we need to stick together on this as we seem to have some very good players at Team Yorkshire.
As for abuse, not just to team mates but to anyone playing they should be removed. It"s a game of chance at the end of the day and bad beats happen. I mean its not like its £ 100 to enter or anything we are talking roughly £6!!!!
