Another Norfolk poker player
antthecat:
sunday and played (reluctantly as just had bad news from a friend) down the pub, im well out of the playoff position so i was only interested in a result and some cash, was playing well until i was called a "dick" for pointing out that he string betted, he announced 300(blinds 150/300) and raise, i said that it is only a call but he was allowed to raise by the td(wtf?) so looked at :as: 8s and reshoved ott(i was emotional at this point only to the news that i was told earlier) everyone else folds and he asks for a count, halfway through counting the raise he called(why bother asking u will ask) and showed ks kd but karma was against him when a flop of ad1 8c :2h:, turn and river were bricks and i was table chip leader on the break, he was moaning that how could i shove with a8 sooted to his raise, if he did not annoy me then i would fold but i was fuming and admittedly make a donkey shove and get rewarded. later on i made the final table only when i was a bit behind preflop with kc th vs the landlords :as: qs (blinds were high and chips were not too great shape) and a ten on the river kept me fighting to take down the tourney and 100 points and £45.
now waiting to play this online tourney to register for the ncfc live event on sunday, wish me luck.
antthecat:
the online event has been cancelled, wtf. wanted to have a stint online but hey-ho, just wondering if the live event is still on. i suppose 22 runners was not enough maybe but bugger, this is so annoying.
monkeyman:
As I start typing this, I"ve been on the phone 15 minutes waiting to get through to Jennings to get an answer to the following questions:
1)How can they claim tonight"s online tournament had a "guaranteed" prize fund and yet be cancelled?
2)I presume that the Live event with "Prizes including a seat in a televised tournament" will also be cancelled
Jennings, get your collective arse in gear and answer
antthecat:
i got through, had a problem with the poker software as far as customer services(bookkeeping) but the live event should be still running regardless.
monkeyman:
Got through to Jennings after a 25 minute wait and apparently, the cancellation tonight was due so a "system error". Both tonight"s online tourney and sunday"s proposed live event, for which they have presumably hired the venue, arranged for dealers to work, hired tables, will be rescheduled.
If anyone from Jennings or with any connection with this weeks tournaments is reading this:
1) I really hope you do as promised and rearrange both events. Call me cynical, but I"ll believe it when I see it, as poker players in this part of the country get f*** all support from anybody.
2) I will not play a single hand on a cash table or enter any MTT or STT on Jennings poker until the promised events with the promised prizes are made available again.
Over to you guys......
