You,ve got to play your strong hands strong, and hope that your team mates realise it and get out of the way!!

seems like everything was fine then :-) But your "Thank You Team Mate" seemed bit angry to me at that moment  ::)


7s :2h:

Mikeyboy9361:
Nah, only jesting. You have to play for yourself first and the team second, well thats the official line anyway! ;)

It's a CLUB league so it should be Team first Individual second

That is very tricky in poker Wayne. I have played team sport all my life, particularly rugby, football and cricket. Now when I get 5 wickets and fifty in the same game but lose I have done the best for me and the team, but if the team lose then I am gutted, but I am playing against the OPPOSITION. In poker it is weird, we want Leeds to win and we want our team mates to do well, but there we are sat at the table playing against our TEAMMATES !! So what do we do we have to play strong otherwise we are accused of playing soft?!
I don"t know how others are playing these games, but I am always aware who my team mates are, and where as i wont play them soft, I may not go to war against them with a marginal hand, as I say tricky. But it seema to be working cos we are "top top top top top o the league"  :D

Mike, would you deliberately run a team mate out? No. So would you be in a HU pot were you can knock one of your team mates out? It's not soft play it's just knowing who your club members are.

That's why I came over the top with the Queens this week; I did not want to play against you. If it were just a normal MTT I would have played the hand differently. Same with the Aces against Kevin, just that he did not know what I was doing. But he played against a team mate HU when they were no need to do so.    

Take the match where you won.  The only way that Leeds was going to win was to knock one of the B'ham players out. I got my chips in against one of them which you also came into the pot knowing that if you won the pot then I would be out giving the win to B'ham, did you realise this at the time?

When we have qualified with 5 games left then we can have some fun  ;D
