blonde poker forum

Right ok, here goes! I'm looking for staking to play the Stars $11 and $22 180's and also the  $7.70 180 turbos.  

I'm asking for staking because I recently withdrawn the cash I have online due to the Mrs being pregnant and needing to prioritise as I have a bday trip toVegas planned in Jan (booked prior to the Mrs being pregnant obv!!) I did leave myself a small amount with a view to a spin up but it didn't work out as planned :(  

I am a casual player only and have a full time job so I normally play 2 days a week - sometimes 3 - And I would anticipate being able to play around 6-8 tourns each day that I play.  You can see that this isn't going to be a massive volume proposal (which I'm aware might stop people from being interested but I cant do much about that unfortunately)

I only plan on playing two $7.70 turbos on any given day with the rest being the normal speed games (15min levels) depending how quickly the games fill up.

I have had decent results playing these SNG's - Albeit the sample size is small.  I have spent quite a lot of time, playing other games (large field MTT's/Cash) but have never done as well in them (loser in large field MTTs and prob breakeven/slight loser playing cash from a small sample)

The proposal is that I wont be playing any other games other than the Stars 180 SNG's.

Stars OPR: http://www.officialpokerrankings.com/pokerstars/T_Mar79/poker/results/0BE40FA7610C4FEBA81069AC0BC4AEA3.html?t=2


The SS results are skewed slightly by me winning 3 $22's in a two week period in September - I am not suggesting that I can maintain quite this level of results - but I will obviously be doing my best and hopefully I can be profitable for any investors. I also appreciate the sample is relatively small.

I am proposing to run this for 8 weeks (initially) from 28th October to 23rd December.  I would like a $1500 bankroll to do this and will be selling in in any increment of 2.5%.

The initial stake will be sold in 2.5% blocks for $37.50.  Profit will be split 50-50 after the stake is returned.

I apologise in advance if I've missed something or suggested something that is unreasonable - I've never done a staking proposal before so am open to suggestions/feedback if what I am offering is not acceptable.

Last thing - I don't know anyone on the forum personally and I know trust is a major concern due to couple of instances of gimmage etc  As some peace of mind - I have £500 invested with Blatch for his Betfair Trading which is now worth ~1k.  This can be used as 'Guarantee' against me doing a runner!  It obviously doesn't get used if for whatever reason I manage not to make a profit.  Just to point out that this is not Blatch vouching for me as a person or as a poker player! Only that he has some money of mine which would hopefully ease potential investors fears of anything dodgy going on.

Feel free to ask questions/flame me.

got it, ta

Right games weren't filling up very quick tonight, so was only able to play 4 (2x7.7, 1x11, 1x22)

Nothing too exciting although came 10th in $22 for small cash, never really got going in this and was grinding 15bb from about 50 out,  was completely card dead also.  In the end I reshoved 17bb over co open on final table bubble with KQ - not sure I like this  shove tbh mainly due to him 3x'ing which tends to mean he's got a hand like he had in these games, maybe I'm being results orientated, was aggro 5 handed table so maybe its ok?! see what you think...No other real hands of interest just me grinding short stack - Have added update to OP with running totals...prob be playing Sunday now.

one off the final table ive deffo be folding a hand like KQ with 17 bb's left.  Hand is far too easily wrapped up and can find better sports on a 9 handed table with 17 bb.

I don't mind the shove- you're flipping some of the times- depends on his image. If he's in every pot it's a cooler.

i dont mind the shove in this spot. 5 handed this is fairly standard. you have the right stack for it, so assuming he is not a nit i would shove here

equally, dont mind a pass. think there are better hands to do it with than KQ as you are crushed by AK and KQ which make up a fair whack of his calling range.

keep going mate, best of luck

yeah I'm a dog to his calling range but him and the big stack were being particualrly agg pre from the bubble in so opening fairly wide I would of thought.. taken on board what you saying about making the move with KQ though numpty ...cheers for all feedback

Am I the only one who thinks this is a standard shove?

I'm probs never shoving here without reads. 10 handed with the pay jump and ft bubble most players at this level are playing pretty tight here so unless I've seen the player open a lot I'd rather pass this and keep opening a lot myself

if however we have info that oppo is competent then we can happily ship here

Villian dependant

Haven't really got the stack to be opening alot, so was conciously looking for resteal spots

sure is 10 handed. Abs standard shove.

tournament not table ldo

Makes it more of a shove. Players are playing tight, like you say, but not players with double the chips of anyone on the table.. Well I should hope not!

they pretty much are from my experience of the lower level 180s. there seem to be very few who understand how to play this ft bubble so in a vacuum the guy's open would scare the bejusus out of me

Thought I'd geek out and work out what the EV was for shoving here (hopefully numbers are right but maths not my best subject)

pot = 5000

Me = 17074
Villian = 17074 (effective)

Assumptions:

Villian Opens: 77+,A7s+,KTs+,QJs,JTs,ATo+,KTo+,QJo  (14.5% of hands) ..Seems reasonable even for tightish player (he wasn't a nit) given the FT bubble
Villian calling range: 77+,AJs+,AJo+ (7.2% of hands)

So villian is folding 50% of time when shoved on

KQo is 33% against calling range


hero folds = 0
villian folds = .50 * 5000 = +2500
Villian calls and we win = 0.5 * 0.33 * 39148 = +6459.42
villian calls and we lose = 0.5 * 0.66 * - 17074 = -5634.42

EV = 2500 + 6459.42 - 5634.42 = +3325


Shoving T9ss is actually even better as it has better equity when called, which is what numpty was saying.

i have played loads of the 45-mans $69 on tilt - in my experience restealing is the way forward in these tourneys. people give too much respect to the re-shove but few opening raises get through. therefore, especially with your stack, it's all about finding the spots to re-shove - keep it up! :)

thie figure in bold is not quite right. you are including the chips you already have. this figure should be profit you make by winning, not the size of the pot, so should be 22k - (i think??)

also, i think his opening range is wider than this. most players would open all pocket pairs and there is some chance (no idea how often!) he is raising with pure junk - literally any two (though obviously he will pass these hands a large proportion of the time) - the percentage of time that he calls the re-shove is pretty tough to work out, but i would guess it is closer to 30% - what do people think about this?

however, well thought out. this is the perfect way of learning if you can think about these situations critically rather than in a results-orientated fashion.

hope you don't mind my input!

far from it... really appreciate it! I'll have another go at the figures when I get a min.. he could well of been opening wider, I just used conservative estimate, but 5 handed on bubble it could be lot more, agree.

Cheers

had another go

hero folds = 0
villian folds = .50 * 5000 = +2500
Villian calls and we win = 0.5 * 0.33 * 22000 = +3630
villian calls and we lose = 0.5 * 0.66 * - 17074 = -5634.42

=  +496

So quite borderline actually but still +EV, obv by ammending his calling range to 30% it improves things for us

Is 496 enough when you should have a big edge on this kinda field?

Not sure the answer to that tbh, any +EV play (even if small) cant be 'bad', can it? quite difficult to quantify... If villians calling range is 30% like numpty suggested then it obv improves things and shoving def > folding.  Impossible to know exactly tho. 

I would pretty much take any neutral ev opportunity, never mind slightly +ev spots (496 chips is more than slight). In this format having a big stack and weilding against the mid stacks in the money and especially bubble situation is well worth taking the risk to get a stack.

Playing tonight now

Crap night, games just not filling up so only manged 5 more.. came 12th in $11 game for min cash - lost my stack flipping with shorties around the bubble and ended up running my 10bb into AK

Be playing midweek next, hopefully games will start to fill up a bit quicker, normally not too bad

Playing tonight.. obv want to try and get as many games in as I can - just noticed a new 22buch 6max tourn capped at 500players - has just started and only 120 in - prob get to 200... would be up for including games like this unless anyone got an objection?!

I'll give it 10mins and if no one replied will stick to the 180s tonight and see what people think for future

go for it

Whats our running balance?

ok i'm in - hope this is ok with everyone, its in the OP but ~40 down, hoping to get few games in tonight

Prob best to keep posting it.

Most of us are lazy and cant be bothered to keep going back to OP ;)

oh and gl

ha.. yep np

No problems with taking a shot at a game of a similar buyin/format at all, go for it

go go go !!

I have 25$ worth- I approve too :D

Crashed and burned everythng I played tonight, sorry guys.. nothing went right, from the very start,  Just bubbled last comp I was in which summed night it up, gutted

Stake stands at 1,339.30

Just going back through my hands.. will put some up in a min

Very first hand after I late reg for the 6max ..have to call river once I called the turn i think, bottled it

No other hands really of interest, beats and coolers as normal but wont bore you with those, will try and play again this week if not the w/e

Hope you dont mind but I railed a bit earlier as didnt have much going on.

Thought you played a few hands well and the AQ exit hand was absolute standard, just explian to me about the QJ exit hand and your thinking on your hand when you had AQ hand and walked into quads.  Not quite sure how you lost so much on that hand.  Im not having a go here but I think this could be perfect oppurtunity to improve as a player.

Dont mind anyone railing or asking about any hand - Like you say if I can learn something then good all round

I meant to post the quads hand, but couldn't find it last night -  I definately misplayed it - ok up to the river (I think) but should have folded when he shoved, tbh the hand above when I got bluffed played a part here as was still thinking about that.

I'll try and find the hand and post it see what you all think

I dont remember exiting with QJ - I did spew off in the 6 max, with AQ which is maybe what you thinking of... had ~26bb and wanted to get it in over a 5x raise - ended up 3betting which villian called and open shoved a rag flop which I called with over cxards only - was pretty tez and put me on tilt for about an hour after, I should of just folded pre or even shoving would of been better than 3betting, just had a brain fart I'm afraid, but know it was a mistake and obv trying to keep them to a minimum

Blatch on this hand..do you see the river as basically a blank and nothing changes... oppo has played this really weird imo as nothing makes sense.... I feel if we called the turn we have to call the river as situation hasnt changed...

I was thinking about this hand.

I'm very inclined to call here since every draw on the flop missed. The K doesn't really scare me as I don't think he shows up with KQ too often, it's a set or air/missed draw here and I'm probably calling. Don't know how much of a leak this is though?

Agree completely with you both, pretty sure I normally call, because its first hand and probs because I'd just asked if I could play the thing I bottled it, my bad

I cant find the AQ hand Blatch mentioned but I basically at 25/50 level I raised a limper (2k stack) pre with AQ on the button (3k stack), checked back an A5x flop (checked back because most of the stuff he limp/calls pre, he folds on A high board),  he c/r the 5 turn which I called, he then shoved the river which I should fold I think, but wasn't in the mood to fold too much after i got bluffed in the hand above and because I checked flop I guess I could look weak.. again, not my best

I'll start to post hands as I am actually playing from now on, so everyone can see whats going on.

i pass here. true, it is a set or air, but at the $22 level do many players really fire three barrels including virtually min raising the flop if they have a big draw? i find it hard to believe this is not extremely rare at this level. if it is a known extremely aggro player in a bigger tourney then maybe i find a call, but my line here is def to pass

also, if the min raise is to rep strength if he misses a draw on later streets, why does he make it 395 instead of 390 (which surely reps even more strength!) - this leans me more towards passing.

i think in this kind of tourney its hard to be too much of a nit in this kind of situation, people just don't find complicated bluffs very often

Good read thus far T_mar keep it going and good luck with it.

where do u pass numpty..turn or river?

Good post esp the 'people just don't find complicated bluffs very often' bit.

[ X ] Glad I don't play these

[   ] I'm not a station

thks, just need to win something now, feeling like I'm letting the side so far, but early days.

stick with it..on my own little $55 S&G spin up at mo...was 11 buyins down after day 2  FML.... almost level now..variance is a bitch..

yeah just need to keep focus, am having another go tonight... will post hands whilst i play

Don't worry about it and try not to feel like that, work hard and results will come.

Cheers cos, know your right

ok early hands

^^both played well, lead on the 2nd one some of the time

not sure about this.. played it like a girl in the end, didn't really want to escalate the pot at any point after the flop though, probs shove pre is best

Prob jame pre, dont like the check on the turn nor the fold on the river.

If your calling on the turn what does the river change to make it now a fold for 140?

Standard fold with TT but the 2nd one I dont like the c/r with the flopped set.

Would either lead and go from there or if I check then deffo check call

ewwwwwwwww

What was your reasoning for re shoving with KQ?

Blatch.. good points AK hand, maybe i should call down, think the 3bettor still to act put me off, and was still early - should of just jammed pre

I didn't want to check/call the set on that board as thought lots of cards that kill action on turn, I do like to lead sets there also some of the time

Nice point - got problem with your not wanting your action to be killed.  Just wanted to make sure I havent backed some idiot who was scared of being outdrawn - nice to hear the right answers coming back at me :-)

thought the KQ hand was standard, shovers range is pretty wide and the cold caller folds alot, no?

For what you have left I dont like the call with KQ there.  I think you can find much better sports there plus the caller behind would also worry my slightly.

I dont think you have enough to reshove here either to really scare the caller as he will now be getting a huge price for his hand.

points taken on the KQ hand, obv made an error

Why has he been overly active?  Had he 3 bet before? Had you been button raising a lot?

std

I personally don't like this.. with no history ..with history possible..but calling off 70% of our stack..better spots? at least you went in with a plan ..  over valuing KQ o/s is a fairly common mistake..

FYP

shove or 3bet to around 2250??

Dear T_Mar79,

Balance now 2331.30

nice score how many did u play before u won this one ?

before start of play yesterday he had played 16

stake showing a profit of 831.3


think mar has gotten a perfect stakage here with some top advice helping him improve

Top Man.. told you to have patience...   :)up :)up

Super result this early into the staking :-)

Lets go go go

Nice work boyeeeeeeeee

I wasn't sure if it was a personal/friendship thing so thought best to leave it out...!

lol, nope, dont really know him, just now and then I say 'boyeeeeeeeeee'

I'm sure theres a pill you can get to stop you doing that..

Yeah boyeeeeeeeeeee......

(http://www.tomsheehan.co.uk/images/flavor_flav.jpg)

well done Tom!! really chuffed for you (and for my stake!!) - keep up the good work. nice to see some reward for your top effort!

Cheers All - Must admit its big relief to get off the mark properly! Its quite unnerving having everyone comment on your play - was bit of an eye opener for me tbh and was doubting myself quite a bit at times reading some of the comments. I've never had the amount of critique that I've had on here in just one week during the whole time since I started playing. 

Don't get me wrong, I appreciate all the comments on hands, and really value your opinions. I'm going to continue posting whilst I am playing so please keep em coming! I go back and reread all your comments which gives me plenty to think about -  Hopefully I can plug some of the leaks and improve as I go.  Its funny that a lot of my biggest mistakes are with so called 'standard' hands!

Anyway a win on the board, which is nice, and hopefully I can keep it going for everyone.

Cheers

Tom

T-Mar please remember that the hands you post up and generally the ones that cost you chips or the ones that are difficult to play and therefore you will get critiqued a lot.

If you were to put up most of your hands then you will get plenty of praise as you are obviously playing a lot of hands well.  The fact you have been staked quickly and are doing well are clear signs that you know what you are doing and that the backers have confidence in you and that you are above these games.  Please dont take any comments personally they are only our opinions of one or two difficult hands out of an entire load played.

In summary well done and win me more please :)

WD T & Backers...

Cheers Blatch, like I say keep it coming.. Can only improve with it.

Good Post Blatch.... 

t-mar..just remember KQ KJ are ultimate trap hands and are tough to play  along with AQ.. times and places with these hands...but well done again its obv u have a good solid game and are thinking along the right lines... now if blatch could only teach u to be a great big luck box like him we'd all be rich   ;D

there is a real skill to this

Having another go tonight, will post hands as I go again

If games are slow to fill up I might include the 6max 500 cap that I played the other day ($20), presuming people are ok with this but if not just shout

Ha ..If only we could all run like blatch ;)

gg 6max, not sure about this, I have good equity on flop but dont think he's folding that much looking at it now?

currently hu in 10buck 45man game, win would break even on the day

Some brutal hands here and pretty much as played.... blatch for gods sake ship this boy some binkage..

I have dont worry

ok won a 45manner for $140, which is near enough what I spent on night, couple of deep runs in the others but no luck at right times... probs play Tuesday now

Balance - 2327.80

Get it in here imo.

no, pass is good.

One hand in the air and ship.

Rutter would pass Kings in this spot

Ha, I dont mind my fold tbh - Obv the shovers range is wide, but the player behind is still a worry given he's in ep

Updated OP with current standings

sure

:) george would call A9 though as long as it was suited

U sure could lay down jacks when you can't fold AJ :P

haha that was possibly the best outdraw of my life - didn't know whether to apologise or just laugh in your silly little gutted face.

"oh rutter, you shattered my dreams...i'm so upset.."   lolololol

by the way, when are you starting your coaching sessions on how to play heads up?? cant wait

just get s ruler out guys

U sure need heads up lessons when you finish 4th

ok having another go tonight... will update with significant hands as i go along

thought i was better checking the river here, and letting him have a another stab when he has air

Flat flop and fold turn is probably best here, especially a SB reraise vs UTG raise.

+1

+2

Don't like shoving on such a coordinated board...give a lot of different hands reason to call other than the usual big reraising hands...keep control of the pot..

Shoving on an coordinated board is better than shoving on a dry board, due to the fact we do get looked by some hands we are beating instead of no hands we are beating. Plus our hand looks more like a draw therefore villian will look us up lighter.

still looking to control the pot here

cheers for feedback, all noted, felt it was spew

nothing too exciting been going on.. sucked twice with <15bb

A7 > QQ
22 > 66

Got unlucky with JJ < AK and AK for 60bb

Currently on bubble in 10buck 180 grinding 15bb

9th, sigh  reshoved 18bb with 33 sb v button, AT spiked A on river

might play couple of turbos and call it a night

losing night, 9th was only cash..pish

Total:- 2244.20

will update op in morning when I can see how many games played etc

open shove?

^^Really don't like the open shove in the cutoff with QQ. Standard 2.5x raise and hope someone reshoves on us as we're in a position where it looks like we're stealing.

I agree with this just because you have 13 big blinds and the stack sizes are perfect for you to look like to are raise-folding to a shove. If you have anything less than say 12 big blinds I prefer a shove because thats what you would be doing with all the other hands you choose to play from there.

:goodpost:

Lol, good post because I am basically repeating your post

exactly :)

There is some history here - I have open shoved maybe 5/6 times in last couple of orbits (2 off bubble) wiith short stack so actually quite like my shove here - Suddenly changing tac and raising 2.5 looks very much like a big hand imo - obv he has a big hand here so would of got action anyway but reckon I get looked up lighter especially as bubble just burst and all the nits happy as they just got their money back

fwiw I am very rarely (if ever) rasie/folding <20bb, and would never raise/fold <15bb.

Fair enough man, that makes sense

Although I'm not sure about never raise folding with less than 15bb. I'm sure situations can arise where it's fine to do that...

Not sure about this tbh - I only raise hands that I am prepared to call a shove with with when I have this stack, and try to look for resteal spots instead. I would say rasie/folding 15bb is spewy - but am open to hear arguments against this

You know what i like.. you know what your going to do after your initial action.. ur thinking ..if this happens i'm doing this.. a lot of the time people say raise ..get shoved on then think ..oh fuck ! now what do i do....

I like ur style sir... although mc ( i can grind like a mfcker with 8 bigs ) is right..sometimes u can raise fold 15 bigs..although from what i see of these comps thats prob rare LOL..

Raise folding 15bbs is fine imo as people in these games simply don't exploit it anywhere near enough. The number of times you get flatted is amazing, so will often open hands in the co/btn which I will fold to a shove. I prefer to do it with hands that play well post flop, so would rather open 109s than a2o for example.

What i normally do is have a look at the stacks behind me and if there isn't a solid reg behind me, I am quite happy to raise/fold. You just make enough stealing the blinds/getting your cbet through/ stacking the donks on good flops to make it profitable.

When antes are big towards the end of these games, I would just open shove up to 15bb rather than raise/fold..  getting flatted and playing flops with this stack isn't much fun imo, but maybe this is a leak??

Open shoving 15 BB I think is personally horrible.  You really should have an edge on these players are raising 2.5x when around 15 BB is fine with the intention of stealing.  I prefer to raise with hands that are easy to know where you are after the flop, i.e. 89 and 79 etc rather than A5 etc.

Also I hate open shoving 15 BB from Mid pos with A7 off

Also the times when you rasie with 15 BB's and there is a re-raise followed by a call/another all-in

+1, this is a leak if you are doing that...

Raise/folding 15bb isn't utilising your stack most effectively imo - open shoving (when antes are in play) is better because it will force some hands to fold that would of otherwise of reshoved on you (eg small pp's, some Ax hands etc)

I should stress I'm not randomly open shoving 15bb everytime its folded to me - Mostly I tighten my opening range right up and only open hands (to a standard raise) that can call a shove - mostly I will look for resteal spots with 15bb

I will on occasions open shove up to 15bb with antes are in play when my hand is too strong to fold but not strong enough to call a shove - when I have similar stacks behind me that are potentially looking to resteal this is much more the case - I try to always make sure I have some kind of equity when I get called,

Sicillan - I will always try and make a dscision before i do anything, this is something that I really tried to work on  - I dont always get it right of course :)

surely if you are tightening up your range to a hand that can call a reshove you want those small pps and Ax trying to reshove you?

yes exactly, I will only open raise (standard 2.5x or whatever) hands that I plan on calling  a reshove with - this means when I call their reshove I should be ahead of their range - this will depend on my perception of the players behind me (how wide they will reshove) and their stack size

Having a go this evening.... will post anything of interest

Right sorry for lack of posts, really fustrating night.. lost flips or got got fecked over in at least 3 comps for decent stacks when going well ..I did manage 2nd in 20buck game so guess should be happy but pissed off with exit hand, 4bet jammed 88 and ran into  jj, was rash move as guy was passive in the main...felt I could of beaten him if I'd taken my time...sigh

Anyway, profit is profit I guess

Ur gonna have days like that...keep going well ahead schedule imo...

More pain I'm afraid, couldn't get a stack in any of the normal speed games i played, ended up getting coolered or flipping when finally getting it in

Then played couple of turbos - finally get some chips and this happens..

Maybe i should get it in on turn in first one, but i really thought he was weak so  wanted to give him chance to bluff river, i checked flop cos he folded to cbet on A high flop couple of hands previous

Anyway dont want this to turn into whinge thread... hopefully things will change around and can get a result or 2

Balance:- 2376.36

Fustration continues, feel like I'm playing well enough just not getting breaks at right time, some ridic beats also but wont bore you with those, just 1 min cash from 7 games tonight

Updated OP with standings

so tilted its unreal.. nothing went right in first few games tonight, running so cold... down to 2 last games $20 buck 180 and 16.50 360  - managed to final table bubble the 180 with flopped straight flush draw v 2 pair for decent chip lead, and then after grinding short stack nearly whole tourny final table bubbled the 360 AK < 77 again for chip lead

Admitedly ran good in couple of spots along the way in these,  but gutted I've not made any decent money ... think I just about broke even on the night

balance:- 2296.06

try not to worry/get frustrated Tom - a downswing is inevitable at some point  - you still have a pretty sick ROI so far. just keep playing your game and it will all coming flying back

+1

Cheers matey, Yeah I know its all standard stuff, just need to crack on as you say.... No whinging in December, I promise ;)

Playing later today hopefully....

Couple more deep runs with only min cashes to show for it in the 180's - came 2nd in 90man for small profit on day, nothing to get excited about though

will update op in morning, but balance is 2367.86

Played few games last night, near misses again unfortunately.. final table bubbled the 16.50 360 again and 13th or something in a 22 180... bit dissapointed in myself in the 360, as was in great position should of been more patient looking back, but was trying to apply pressure and accumualte... small profit on night

Balance - 2414.96

Prob wont be able to play till next week now as its my bday on Monday and seem to have lots going on

Played last night and had 1 deep run losing flip for top 4 just outside the bubble, lots of near misses at the moment unfortunatley.

I'll update the OP when I get a min but balance is ~2300

I've just had some bad news with my grandad passing away so I'll be heading up north for the funeral and to spend some time with my mum -  I dont know if I'll be able to play too much more before xmas which is when I was going to end the initial staking period.

I may be able to get another session or 2 in but not sure at the mo - Might be better to call the initial period over for sake of clarity, but I will go with what the stakers want to do. 

I'm dissapointed I wont be able to return more proft to the stakers - as it stands everyone has made 26% on their investment (based on $400 share of proft)  I was hoping for more than this tbh after a decent start but maybe that was unrealistic with my low volume -  A flip here or there makes all the difference but that is how it goes obv.

From my point of view I have really benefited from playing on the stake - and would like to thank al stakers again for 'investing'.  I go to vegas in January and get back approx 14th or somerhing - If people are happy then I would love to carry on with the arrangement up until end of March when the Mrs is due at which point I'll be giving poker a break. If people prefer to call it a day now then no worries. As I see it there are 3 options:

1. Leave balance as it is and continue as of Mid Jan
2. Divvy up profit, and start again with 1500 bankroll in mid Jan
3. Divvy the lot up and call it a day

If you can let me know what you would prefer, then I can sort out any transfers asap

Cheers

Tom

 

Just take some time off mate and I am more than happy to do whatever your preferred route would be when you feel ready to play again, now is not the time to worry about poker, much more important things in life right now.

sorry for your loss.

Really sorry to hear for your loss and as Dave says more important things in life than poker.

I would go for option 3 and then put up a new request when you know the full timings of when your available etc - im certain you will sell out very quickly.

Good luck with everything.

Cheers guys.

OK maybe thats the best thing to do - I'll divvy up the lot and reship and then think about another proposal when I know I can play again.

If people can just confirm their screen names to send to I will take care of it over the w/e

+1

+2... but ill go with the majority vote..condolences on ur loss..

NumptyDumpty - 25% - $475.3

sorry for your loss,

Tom

Hey guys no idea if anyone is still interested but i'd like to start this back up again if possible...I've PM'd you all with brief proposal, but its basically same deal as before

Depending on response I'll see if anyone else might be interested

Cheers

Tom

Will take the same as before please

Ok bongo and silo confirmed as back in - will keep open until wednesday for everyone else and hopefully get started by end of the week, if people aren't interested then obv may take bit longer as will need to do brand new proposal

cheers

Confirmed:

Silo 5%
Bongo 10%
Blatch 35%
The Sicillian 10%
T Rutter 25%

Also if the others dont take what they had before ill have it please :)

lol thanks mate .. think floppy is in oz going on some of his posts so possible 10% there, and seen daveshoe reading this but not replied so poss another 5 ...just need to wait for tom rutter, as he was in for 25% originally and did say he would be up for coming back in - but he may change his mind... hopefully get sorted by tomorrow so i can get started

I wouldn't mind another 5% if there is some spare (and Blatch doesn't mind).

5% from some lucky shoe money if available =D

OK - Everyone is back in bar Dave and Flops by the looks of it so there is 15% extra

Bongo did reply to PM originally and asked if any more was availbel so has 5% extra and Blatch asked for the rest after that so has 10% extra unless someone wants to let Paul's lucky shoe money in for 5% we're looking llike this..

Silo 5% $75
Bongo 15% $225
Blatch 45% $675
The Sicillian 10% $150
T Rutter 25% $375

$1500 total


Cheers all - Much appreciated, if you can ship to T_Mar79 on stars.. I'll aim to get started tomorrow night

Sent, good luck

probs be abit unfair for me to want a slice. So I will let the rest take up the offer.

Appreciate the offer bud, had to give to current stakers first tho

OK all recd other than Blatch ($675) and Bongo ($35)....  Think its safe to say they are good for it,  so will be starting tonight and will update thread with totals after each session as before.  Wont be reporting any beats in the thread, its going to be positivity all the way!!  I willl post any hands I wasn't sure about/struggled with.

GL us!

I need to find someone to ship the cash on stars (from tilt) - unless you still need tilt $? Just had a quick look on the transfer thread...

That got sorted mate ..was just paying rutter his cash from last time, soz

Not a problem, I've asked on the thread so hopefully will be able to ship it soon.

Cheers mate, not too concerned,- lost flips in both finals for decent stacks, so could of been different (as ever!) ..lost a massive pot in the six max comp yesterday which annoyed me more tbh, made a correct call with 2nd pair with over agg player overbet shoving a flush draw on the turn and getting there.. stll a a fair way out but would of given me over 100bb so could of made a decent run at it and was 500player tourn so prize money was more obv - anyway, will keep trying! wont be playing till later in the week now

I've shipped the $35 to Lazzzyboy79 on tilt. Let me know if there any problems.

Things not going our way at the moment, depending on how things go in the next couple of sessions I may drop the 20 buck games and add some 45/90 manners to try and steady the ship.  Obv really small sample, but dont want to drop too much in to the red
