Daily 30k for me too..... first hand on the button with AA. UTG opens for 100... I flat call and blinds fold. UTG checks a 246 flop - i bet 200 and he calls. Turn is 8 and UTG checks... I bet 450 and he moves all in..... ...... ...... I click call and.... nuthing happens..... takes nearly two minutes for connection to return!! hand folded.
-
He had 7 5 -- nice fold LOL

GL to John!
I"m still pondering what I"m gonna play tonight ... £17 too rich for me tho. I"ve just played two SnGs on Sky and broke even after 45 mins. I had hoped that there would be more Satellites to the games I want to play but not the case.
GL to you three four.

-
Can"t seem to get SkyPoker streamed on the web, anyone else able to ?
-
errrrrr well i played the Open in my usual aggressive style, and having picked up a couple of small pots in first couple of hands, I got AK on the button and open raised to 5xBB hoping to look like a steal, fully intending to shove if re-raised....... and sure enough the BB min-raised..... and I shoved..... and he had AA. oops. good night.
-
I"m out the Deepstack in 400th-ish, ran Kings into Aces. Doesn"t THAT sound familiar?

That must be Duke"s fave shirt (and his fave pose with the sleeves up) - see both photos of him above - his Avatar and WebCam pic
Played three SnGs on Sky and a HU. Down £7. Not a fan of Sky software either. I sometimes have to click the buttons multiple times for it to register. Not handy when I thought I had hit All In with my flopped FH ... my 2nd window popped up and I had to think ... flicked back to see if I had been called and I had been timed out and FOLDED!! WTF?? FML!!

I think the software is ok.Its just the structures of the tournaments are too quick.Saying that we all know that when we sign up.
The structures just dont suite cultured players like me and Ger.
-
I guess SkyPoker does exactly what it aims to, which is offer something a bit different to your normal poker site and the structure of the TV games means you need to have a slightly different gameplan.
I"ve not yet managed to work out what the gameplan is to be profitable at SkyPoker, then again the same could be said for most of the sites I play on.
I think I"ll shut up now. ???

well i just decided - Sky sucks!! (well the players on it do anyway!!)..
Playing 25p/50p 6 handed, and have around £58. In Big Blind with AA. UTG raises to £1.50..everyone called.... I raised to £10 (pot is £8 when it gets to me).... all folded expect one who flat calls. Flop KJ9 with 2 spades. I bet out for £10 - villain calls. Turn rag - I shove all in for another £38 - villain snap calls.... third spade on the river and his 7s 3s in good!
sighhhhhhhhhhhhh onwards and sideways. off to bed early.

wp, gg.
Yeah, GUKPT game was cancelled but they gave me the $250 instead, which was probably a better result than if the game had been played! As Leigh knows, my profit is a bit less than that as I had about 5 rebuys at $12 a shot in the qualifier, whereas he didn"t have any. Played really badly in the rebuy section and the Heads-Up. The in-between bit must have been okay, but I can"t remember any of it. At the end Leigh was winning the Heads Up hands down. He kept dragging my chips over to his stack bit by bit. I got a lot of them back in two big hands, but each time they would then start drifting back to him. Ended when we both hit flushes, K-high v T-high (Q on board).
How"s this for a bad beat. I played the Big Deal tourney on Gala"s site tonight. Supposed to be $300 buyin but I picked up a seat from a $30 qualifier.
549 runners, 60 to be paid. 60th gets $700, 1st gets $41k.
Anyway, down to 75 left in and I"m sinking fast in 66th with 6200 chips when I pick up KK on the button. 1 limper in cutoff and I raise to 2400 (BB 800). I didn"t want to go all-in and chase everyone out of the hand as I needed to collect some chips from this hand to ensure I got paid. 1 caller - cutoff (who had 11k at the start of the hand). Flop 3J4. He checked and I put my remaining 3,800 in. I"m not sure what he has but it can"t be two pair. He didn"t raise pre-flop, so the chances of AA or JJ are reduced, though he did call my raise. AJ through TJ are possible. Could be a middle-pair, especially if he is a non-believer. With 9,800 now in the pot, I"m hoping he will call, which he did with...............QT. What? How ridiculous. Couldn"t be better for me. Turn 9; River 8 - He has made a straight and I"m out for zilch. Very strange - even if he thought I was bluffing, he wasn"t beating anything. If he had even had a 3, there could have been some justification for his call. I can"t be cross with him; he did his best to double me up, but poker is annoying when poor play and luck come out on top, especially when that potentially costs you a lot. He went on to win $1500 for 18th out of 549, so he can"t be a bad player, but he sure had a brainstorm that hand.

7.5 hours of my life for 22.95 -- I will now officially retire -- out 121st
Of course if a decent/sober player had the never ending string of pocket pairs that Duke had they"d have won it. :D
-
I ended Sunday with a 2nd, 1st, 1st, 1st, 1st
Sadly the first 2 were $3 sit and goes and the last 3 were $2 HU"s - but still always good to end the weekend on a high
