Toe'd in the Hole
rubertoe:
Just a Little Update on the NLH - I played 3 MTT"s Yesterday Crashed out early in two ($2 Buy in) and had a final Table for $57 ($5 buy in) in the Middle of the two crashouts!
All in all i feel alot more comfortable playing MTT"s now, as compared to When i played the national - i seem to be concentrating more and not panicking when i get short or even not worrying so much about getting My money from behind or with big draws!! or even getting knocked out. (as long as i dont make stuoid mistakes or play weak then i will be happy!!!)
What i plan on doing for the next week or so is to play one MTT a day until the national as well as playing a bit of cash!!!

It Allways Makes me laugh this time of year when i see a Mass of New Forumites all begging to buy A ticket for a Seat at walsall!! All these people so desperate to get a seat that they are willing to Offer a percentage of themselves should they win!!
My Suggestion to those people that do not have tickets is, maybe, like most of the other people that are desperate for tickets is to either be aware that there is a clickfest - or try and Satelite in!! Rather than just turn up and beg for a seat!! it unbecoming!!
I havent played any poker at all since Sunday, when APAT took over the 6kgtd on the I Poker network, Chippacrual, Luckybuger, Loggie 66 and myself all took to the virtual felt looking for a deep run! and if i recall i went the deepest but none of us managed to cash - I came 215 of 1900+ runners just shy of the Money when i got it all in on the flop with bottom Pair and a flush draw, only to be called by top pair (i got crippled a few hands earlier when pocket 8"s lost a flip!)!
I seem to be playing better in recent weeks - not to sure what to put it down to - maybe just less Time at the felt - I have started to cash regularly - i"d say 1.5/4 Mtts i"ll cash but i am just not picking up enough Deep Deep Finishes!! which i hope to remedy!!
Looking forward to the national"s,
Roll on Poker Sundays!!!

1) i am Looking for a new Name for my Blog and am struggling to think of anything to call it! ( i am open to suggestion)
2) Don"t you hate a miss Click!!
The reason that i mention the Above is that due to a miss click last night i managed to burn through a whole buy in, I was playing 5/10 NLH and Had just Sat Down at the Table and waited for the BB - which so far is standard - Anyway the hand in question came only 5 hands latter when I am dealt Kc Jc in the hi-jack seat and after several limper"s - i decide i like the limp too - i know i should be raising - but we don"t always do what we know - We see a flop after no Raise and I have position over the field, Flop Ah, Kd, 3s and it is checked around to me - at this point - i am trying to get the BBC to show me the football Scores and as i wait for the page to load - My table opens - just as i am about to click Play on the radio - and this happens to be in in the same position on the screen as the All in Button!!!!!!! so with 48c in the Pot - i make a massive over raise to $9.85 due to the miss click (i always planned to bet this flop if it is checked as normally any Ace would come in raising) and promptly get called by a Set of threes and there Goes that Buy in!!!!!!
As a result of the Above i Have Taken the Added precaution of now having to approve any all-in actions - but the good news is that i did manage to get the buy in back and i didn"t tilt because of it!!!
