Title: Did I do ok for myself Post by: jizzemm on July 30, 2008, 04:40:49 AM (not a brag post honest) ;joestrummer;
Just come back from playing a £30 DC freezout in Leos Liverpool, and got down to final 3, and then a chop was offered. details are: -
allocated prizes which were top heavy 1st- £1090 2nd - £470 3rd - £ 300 Original offer was 1st - 960, 2nd - 500, 3rd - 400 I said that I wanted £500 for 3rd which was agreed, so final chop was - £860 - £ 500 - £500. Did I do ok im my position, considering I was BB next hand.... Title: Re: Did I do ok for myself Post by: Moskvich on July 30, 2008, 05:13:49 AM Computer says no :(
ICM calculator puts equities as £717 / £583 /£560. So I'm afraid it looks like the chip leader's the big winner here. The first offer was obviously ridiculous - especially with blinds this high there's no way 270k chips can be worth twice as much as 170k chips. Whether the second deal's any good for you depends on other stuff as well as just equity of course. gg anyway! Title: Re: Did I do ok for myself Post by: boldie on July 30, 2008, 08:24:27 AM I wouldn't have taken 500 here..the CL did nicely out of it. I think Mosk is right 560'ish sounds closer to what i would have asked for.
Having said that, if the 200£ difference between the orginal 3rd place and the 5 you got makes a big difference to you there's nothing wrong with taking it :) WD on the result though :) Title: Re: Did I do ok for myself Post by: Graham C on July 30, 2008, 08:50:13 AM Nice result Jizz
Title: Re: Did I do ok for myself Post by: kinboshi on July 30, 2008, 09:00:48 AM Nice result fella. You didn't do too badly in the deal, and certainly better than the origial one offered. I hope the 1st place player was the one who tipped the dealers out of his winnings?
What would a 'DTD-style' chop be here? Title: Re: Did I do ok for myself Post by: GreekStein on July 30, 2008, 09:09:07 AM wd on final table.
bad deal though imo especially when chipleader has 13 BBs and you have 7. At that stage I'm not lookin at my hand and just getting it all in pre flop to take blinds. A few hands uncalled and ur chipleader and even if ur called its not the end of the world to have K7 vs AJ Title: Re: Did I do ok for myself Post by: LeKnave on July 30, 2008, 09:10:52 AM What would a 'DT (http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/)D (http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/)-style' chop be here? 1st - £735.63 2nd - £574.29 3rd - £550.08 Title: Re: Did I do ok for myself Post by: StuartHopkin on July 30, 2008, 09:13:01 AM Nice result fella.

Thats where I went wrong, damm, when I worked out the chips I did it on the % figure, rather than giving 3rd place to everyone and then % the chips to the money left in the pot. In essence it looks like I possibly missed out on £50, but, even now after seeing the figures, I feel that I did not do to bad for myself, 2nd placed did worse by the looks of it, and with my current employment status being the way it is, £500 for a £33 layout is not a bad return. Thanks for the reply guys, only second time I have had chop discussion in a decent money tourney and the other was in DTD and the figures were done by them so not much thought needed, but the pressure of trying to get a good deal for yourself was something different, and one that I will hopefully learn from for the future (I hope) ;thankyou; Title: Re: Did I do ok for myself Post by: booder on July 30, 2008, 02:42:07 PM nice touch Jizz wd

Title: Re: Did I do ok for myself Post by: KarmaDope on July 30, 2008, 02:46:11 PM Daf,
If you're happy with the deal then yeah, you did ok for yourself. In your position I definitely wouldn't turn down £500! Title: Re: Did I do ok for myself Post by: jizzemm on July 30, 2008, 02:56:56 PM Sigh ... you can only win when i rail ;) LOL was thinking that with 4 left as well.. wheres kev when I need advice ;whistle; Title: Re: Did I do ok for myself Post by: AlexMartin on July 30, 2008, 03:02:05 PM U didnt do badly for sure, but you didnt do well as the ICM showed. 1 doubleup puts you as CL and you have a nice bit of leverage in your position. The trick is to keep telling them you will think about a deal and are working out the figures, keep moving allin as they are hoping to ladder and not jeapordise stack and then once you have them both fighting for second, with a bowl of rice each, say u dont feel like doing deals today.

So you might have been able to extract another £50 - £500 isn't shabby at all is it? :)up Title: Re: Did I do ok for myself Post by: The_nun on July 30, 2008, 07:28:58 PM nice touch Jizz wd Title: Re: Did I do ok for myself Post by: DungBeetle on July 31, 2008, 01:13:05 PM If the chip leader wanted to deal, with these blinds I wouldn't offer him anymore than a 3 way chop. If not, let's have shove fest and see what happens as I've got £300 banked for my £30 investment already. Just my opinion, but I think with these blinds he has only a marginal advantage over the rest of you (i.e. he gets one all in for free)
