The penultimate game of the league. Realistically I think we"ve blown it. We weren"t getting enough numbers anyway and now with this game on at the same time as England v Germany it"s pretty much gg promotion chances, slight as they were!
Anyway, I"ll be there peeping over the top of my lappie at the match. If there"s anyone else who fancies it, it"d be great to see you. If we get 2 or 3 runners we might even be able to bink enough points to keep our promotion hopes alive going into the last game which is NEXT WEEK.
-
Just a quick reminder - 90 minutes to go - 4 Notts in out of 18 total. Not too bad as we"re second to Luton who have 10 entrants. I"m hoping everybody else will be drowning their sorrows.
Come on - let"s bink the 3 points. We know it can be done - the mackems showed the way. Let"s keep our promotion hopes alive!
-
We"re 3 points adrift of Kent who currently occupy the last promotion spot. To get that spot from them we need to be level on points at the end of the season. We get the spot if we finish level due to count back on number of 1st place finishes - we have 2 Kent have 0. So our first objective tonight is to score at least one point to give ourselves half a chance next week - DON"T FORGET THE FINAL GAME IS NEXT WEEK
At the moment Luton have 15 players, Sunderland 6, Notts 4, Kent 1 and Swansea 1. Only 4 players count to the matchday points total so as things stand we have a good chance of getting one point or possibly more.
Take your time, play your own game but keep half an eye on beating the Kent players - at the moment that is theyid62 - and the Swansea players - at the moment that is Nemisiss.
I"ll keep this thread updated so we know where we stand.
EDIT: Reg now closed so the above is correct - theyid62 & Nemisiss are our main targets. If we can bink 2 points then fantastic.
Good luck!
EDIT: ffs! Nemisiss is up to 5.7K!!!
EDIT: 2 early Sunderland casualties - a real chance to score 2 points - UP NOTTS!!!!
-
Genuine wish you well. :)
-
Cheers Waz :-*

I"m sure Kent won the leg I runner upped in? Grim Ripper??
Edit:
Got it now, team scores not individuals ;)
-
Unlucky Simon - down to 3 Notts - 5 Sunderland, 1 Kent, 1 Swansea. Oh, and more Luton than you can shake a stick at!
-
I really can"t be bothered with this any more.
-
sick exit hand gl the rest of you cant see us getting there this season tho"
-
I"m gone in 18th. Only hope now is that Nemisiss9 outlasts theyid62 and stops Kent scoring the point that will take any faint hope of promotion away.
-
Well, Nemisiss9 DID do us a favour and stopped Kent from scoring. But I"m fearing we"re not going to have enough players next week to have any chance of taking the 3 points - as slim a chance as it seems to be anyway.
All I can say is - please play!?
-
is it definitely next week? I have in my diary on sat the north euro title, then 2 weeks time last game of the season
-
Yes Bal ;) it"s definitely next week due to a clash with the World Cup final as it was originally scheduled:
Matchday 10 and the World Cup Final (http://www.apat.com/forum/index.php?topic=6051.msg105005#msg105005)

ok gotcha. For some reason I have no problem final tabling 90/180 SNGs on stars with reasonable regularity, but can"t seem to break through to the final 9 in this comp recently. Don"t know what thats about. Abit of bad luck maybe. Also i think when you"re used to playing turbos with 5 min blind levels, adjusting your game and patience to a 12 min level can sometimes be tough.
despite all that I still think shoving 9BBs with QJo from the sm blind facing a min raise from the btn was +EV. I think that making straightforward +EV moves once 20 players are left is the best way forward, because most people are tight at this stage. Once its down to 13-14 players, imo it becomes important to hold out for the final table to pick up points, hence passing up marginally +EV plays. What"s other"s strategy?

Strategy? (http://blondepoker.com/forum/Smileys/default/dontask.gif)

The last one is next week?
Sigh....can"t play that either. Good luck all though.
