Can"t believe we"ve no had an update on this yet. The first scheduled tournament started at least 2 minutes ago.

To charge a mark-up of 1.01 and then not give us the sweat on such a large investment will make me think twice next time.

Triple Stud was cancelled due to lack of runners. It had two signed up - myself and John :)

8 playing the Stud in the end. I usually play a bit later than this & we get anything from 20 to 70 runners in these things.

The Stud has been crap in the short time it has been going. So far, I have had the best hand outdrawn 5 times. Down to 825 chips from 2500 - 8/8.

Not to worry, the Badugi has just started with 15 - still 10 mins late reg if you fancy it.

Whatever the other one was that I entered has been cancelled due to lack of interest.

This is bad. Currently tailed off in both.

28/29 in the Badugi and 7/8 in the Stud (the 8th is out).

Disappointed I missed this, however I would"ve preferred investing in the Portsmouth Snooker Club £10 rebuy, as I see you have form.

I have won the game at the snooker club before, but unfortunately it doesn"t run any more.

You are better off having missed this effort. I"ve been golden in these games for the past couple of weeks and tonight it has all gone sideways. A well-deserved 26/29 and 6/8 so far.

If it"s the pressure of the stake I"m happy for you not to update and win the lot.

It"s been a horrible night of outdraws. At least a dozen so far. This always happens whenever I move up in stakes.

Three of my bad beats were in the WH freeroll - would anyone like to hear about them?

8/29 in the 2-7 (5 paid). A significant improvement on the other games.

Don"t bank on it. I"ve been substituting, ala Tesco Home Delivery. Currently playing a $2.20 Triple Stud, $2.20 2-7 and $3.30 HORSE. Doesn"t stop the outdraws coming thick and fast though. Just flopped top set in the Holdem part of the HORSE and................ oh never mind.

Sigh, I so wanted this to be a grim.
