I can't comment as to whether or not the person you highlight has had a god or bad year.

But I wonder why (if that is the case) you would find it necessary to "lol" at somebody else's misfortune ? Maybe it's personal  I don't know, just seemed strange to me.

I was in Brighton on Sunday for the APAT regional, and phoned Flushy while I was there .. He confessed to playing the £5 rebuy comp, he also confessed to having a high % of the 180 rebuys, he was shoving blind every hand, in fact truth be told, he would have had to come 1st AND 2nd to have made a profit LOLOL

I think the point is why are 9 prizes with 55 runners, the buyin is somewhat irrelevant.

Nice result Flushy, ship the £20

Is this like a "well"-style thread except we can all throw insults down the well at flushy?

What a great idea!

Ok, my first question is...nevermind the buyin differential over 12 months, after gettin pwned by the honey monster in Brighton, how did you find the balls to show your face on the live scene again?

2nd question. At one time you were known as Europe's foremost bubble dodger. When you started your live career you tore into the european circuit with gusto, putting together an impressive string of "just-in-the-money" places...In fact one of your results shows such keen bubble dodging you even managed to win LESS than your initial buyin! Top notch!

You then spoilt things somewhat by actually winning a few tournaments. Does this 9th place finish show you are back to your former, keen, memorable bubble dodging ways?

Ignore the haters I say.

Good well.

I remember about 3 years ago at Walsall's friday night 5 quid chipfest I had 23 consecutive rebuys, allin every hand till I won a pot. LOL.Oh the good old days of the Analmob.
Cant remember if I had an addon though.
I think Red Dog was playing in the tourny too
