Title: Manchester - matchday 5
Post by: Swinebag on March 26, 2009, 17:00:39 PM
Carrying on from our comfortable victory 2 weeks ago (despite only having less than half our members playing), lets chalk up another one!!

password: leaguepl

starts at 8pm on BSQ on sunday.

simple as!!

btw....the recruitment drive has fallen a bit flat here (no new members since week one!!). If anyone can get some friends signed up asap that will be great

This thread is for members to post progress/bad beats (if you have to?)/exit hands.

good luck everyone!!

In fact I am ducking out. This will finish about 1.30am at the earliest and I have an earlier than normal start tomorrow.

good to see that the numbers have not been affected too much by the late start time.

so far we have 12 regged from 77. I will rail for a bit and update on this thread. feel free to update it yourselves

Gone already.

sorry guys... went down to a bowl of rice early after some donk refused to fold AK... I flopped an open-ended straight flush draw.  Bet it strong on the flop, river and turn (despite missing everything), and got called the whole way by AK (no flush draw!)... loosing to A high! lol

My bad I guess!

Post by: Swinebag on March 30, 2009, 07:58:01 AM
brian didn"t make final table so no points for us this week. We are still joint third overall.

2 things I"ve learned from this game

1. If I dont play then we dont score points. Its not like I have contributed anything playing wise, but I am definitely the best non-playing captain in the central division ;D

2. Bear 21 needs to learn where the "reply" button is when posting.  ;D
Gary, only press the "quote" button if you intend to use the quote!! ;D ;D ;D

Post by: cooste on March 30, 2009, 18:31:15 PM
Unlucky Brian.
The thing that I have learnt after last night is that you lose your concentration watching other tables and trying to post at the same time. Totally lost the feel for my table and consequently donked off all my chips to scouse.  :-[
Title: Re: Manchester - matchday 5
Post by: WASP on March 30, 2009, 19:19:44 PM
Thanks for the support cooste.

The things I learnt lastnight :-

Bubbling at 1am is not a nice feeling!

The same cock who has been giving me grief for weeks (no idea who is is) is not singling me out, he is like that with everyone  ;)  but there seems to be a lack of class in this tourney and me not being a regular APAter is this normal?

Min raises are baaaaad - so many people were min raising lastnight (even our own team) why? fingers were getting burnt and they got their just desserts.

People are willing to call off most of their stack with 89 soooted and hope to get lucky, long may that continue  :D

This is not the norm for APAT tourneys.

Name and shame please, so it can be avoided in the future

This is not usual for the tourney"s that i"ve played in, normally good banter between all the players.
I did notice 1 on your table who seemed to go on tilt after you cracked his ace"s, and was sounding off in the chatbox.
If this is the same guy let Rob(swinebag22) know so it can be dealt with, this kind of thing is not wanted if it puts people off playing.

BTW See you in Cardiff Brian.
Are you down Friday night cos I think we"re going out for a few beers.
Title: Re: Manchester - matchday 5
Post by: WASP on March 31, 2009, 20:03:07 PM
Nah not my style really, I"ve found out his name through his Team listings and I see he is in Cardiff so I will have a quiet word and if he is still a cock after that I shall let Rob know the outcome.

Cooste I am not down Friday as I am too busy with work, in fact I was struggling to get down Saturday at one point, I"m not really one for a night on the town anyway  ;) but happy to say hi and have a beer on Saturday in the casino, though Dewi and bigal owe me a brewery between them so I may have to pace myself if the poker goes well.

Post by: WASP on March 31, 2009, 20:08:27 PM
PS It wasn"t the Aces guy btw I found his rant more funny than offensive but he did play them bad and my move was standard so he had no cause for complaint really and I have never seen a tilt like that before  :D
Title: Re: Manchester - matchday 5
Post by: Swinebag on March 31, 2009, 22:18:06 PM
If you think his poor behaviour is personally directed at you Brian then a quiet word in Cardiff should resolve this.

If he is generally poorly behaved in APAT online tourneys then naming and shaming is the way to go here.A quiet word will only probably stop his poor behaviour towards you but not towards anyone else.
