I can honestly say that i have never seen anyone run as good as tony does in the Talbot. in contrast watch me tonight, but maybe i think im due a bit of luck.

Just make sure you bring your bad luck with you when we play our 50,000 chip deepstack on the 29/11.

Even you should last more than your usual 2 hour sitting with the blinds at 25/50  ;) ;D

Me too! I"ll give you a full list of all my online aliases if you fancy a game ;D. In all seriousness, if you want to increase your profitably, worry less about executing big bluffs, play more solid,boring positional poker and you may be surprised to find you have less hands to complain about.  

As for playing live versus online, some of us haven"t got a choice, the computer is the only option. How many live venues within 50 miles run regular deepstack tournies? Exactly, a big fat zero. I"m even being forced on a 4.5 hour trip somewhere oop north in a couple of weeks just for a bit of real poker action.

will txt u both. the reason i dont enjoy playing online is that i find it boring and have the attention span of a goldfish. when im playing live there is a usually a conversation about some general bullcrap and i find it stimulates my brain(if there is no conversation then i usually start one unless someone is in the thinktank then silence is golden) but online it feels like a computer game, i have had gta4 for about a year and only completed 4% of it, point example. i find it hard to describe what it is but i cant concentrate half as much when staring at a computer screen, maybe create a game where i could predict the age of the player or guess which room they are playing on their computer/laptop, that makes sense to me. i play poker subconciously as in i can talk while tanking about a decision unlike most.

btw, i only bluff when its correct to according to sklanksy theory of poker.

norwich poker club do some reasonably deep tourneys for quite good buyins simon, only 5-10 mins from yours surely and the cash game is ssssoooooooo juicy, worth a look. shame i have moved in with the girlfriend (bugger)
