I'm in 13th place with 22 remaining

on 40k

worked them up to 60k but there is a guy from Scotland (dave7867) who is determined to steal my
blinds all the time, he is worse the yanks >:(

Hi, had friends around for a meal, not too sad on missing out playing the yanks, how many Brits left?

finished in 12th place

utg i had A8o I couldn't let the blinds pass as i was short stacked, blinds 6k/3k/600 ante

went all in, called by 87o

flop 88Q
turn 7
ouch
only 7 left in from uk so I have finished 7th uk player, that should put me through?

Well done mate, that'll be good enough to go through

how many brits go through....is it 10?

Had a go last night, went all in with pair of Jacks. An American had pair of Jacks, thought it would be split pot, but four diamonds came up and he had the Jack of Diamonds.
Tried tonight and had a pair of Jacks again, thought lightning can't strike twice. This time a Canadian, he had a pair of 6's (6h, 6s). Up come's four spades and knocked out again by a flush.
Apart from having a bad run it was a bit annoying as there was only three brits at the table. Surely Ultimate can prevent non uk players joining in? Also found the chat function a bit of a struggle. Doesn't exactly encourage me to bring my money to their website.
 >:(

chat function is the easiest i've ever seen!
just type and press enter.
amazing how the simpler it is the harder it becomes

Shoot, it was the last qualifier tonight I think, forgot it. Trying to regain last nights Laddies losses. I agree the whole comp has been a cock up by ub, the septics were just not playing and being obstructive. I am not sure that I would want to put money in their bin. I got an email from them last week, wanted to fill a questionaire but first I had to put my username and password in the email and press a button. As one who gets emails from  fake banks, fake ebay, fake neteller asking me for passwords etc I know not to follow the istructions, why the hell did ub use this method when all they needed to sort out was request to log on ask the Qs online.

That is a fake email robert...if you did answer it I'd change your password ASAP

Was it indeed, did you get one?
As you note from my post above I am a suspicious chap and didn't answer it.

There was a thread on 2+2 about it. Consensus was it was a "phishing" expedition. No. I didn't get one so my 10 cents there is safe :D

i'm in!!
wahoo just finished, see whomever there

Is that you in the final tomorrow with Dave?
Well played!!

must be, didn't know it was tomorrow and ty mate

RESULT!!!! well played, Blondes have more fun

Just checked, it is tomorrow (Errr tonight now). Top three go through winner gets the last prog with the highest potential cash.

I had some issues with this tournament so expressed my issues with ultimate bet in an email to them. i copy and paste from  my inbox ;

Comments : i think its pointless in holding a tourney for UK players if
Americans can enter it.
I had AK and went all in pre flop for 4100 chips and one american said he wants
to try and knock the UK players out, and he calls with 73.

the board came 10 10 8 turn card 9, river card 6.

The americans on my table knocked out all the uk players when i went out.

Its impossible to play well as there is so many overseas players and if you go
all in with good cards they just call with crap and get lucky because they want to knock you out.

As you can tell by my tone i am very annoyed and want a full explanation as to
why overseas players are allowed to enter a UK tournament it just doesnt make

now is it me or do their customer services really not get the point ???
sense.

Nope it wasn't just you. I think they have just lost customers there!

i repied saying

" if you would care to read through my email a bit more thoroughly, then you would realise that you havent quite adressed my point in enough depth, i look forward to your reply"

sarcastic at all?

Pretty much but, in the word of the day, "woooosh"

As in the sarcasm will go over their heads

ahhhhh of course lmao ;D

Glad you cottoned on, it went errr "wooosh" first time  ;D  ;D

Hehe, a DOUBLE WHOOSH!

this forum is gag central isnt it? i love it

hats off to robert who inadvertently managed to pull off his orignal gag on my response to his original gag when i responded not understanding his gag.

yeah something like that anyway
