Title: sky poker tour luton - this weekend
Post by: Claw75 on January 23, 2012, 12:13:11 PM
Somewhat against my better judgement i've been persuaded to venture back to these boards to request staking for the sky poker tour event this weekend. Buy in is £200+£20, structure same as dtd deepstack, field mainly, i presume, online qualifiers from sky poker.

I can't afford to chuck anything more than the petrol money at this atm so will be looking for 100% of the buy in in exchange for 70% of the action. To save anyone else the need to say it - no, i can't justify the mark up and it's probably terrible value for money. Not one for the shrewd investor more for punters hoping i get lucky. Stranger things have happened.

If this sells i'll need payment via bank xfer only so that the dosh is available im time for me to deposit and biy in online.

25% please Claire.

Good luck in the event - it's time you had a bit of run good.

Don't think you're terrible value in this at all Claire.

I'll have a punt for 15%

20% please.

Post by: tikay on January 23, 2012, 02:02:24 PM

Excellent.

I have requested 25%, but if it over-subscribes, I will reduce that to 10%, or even 5%, so we can get as many stakers as possible in on the sweat.

Claire is dueeeeeeeeeeeeee

Yes, of course, Simon. As I said above, am happy to reduce my holding if it means we get more of the loyal regulars involved.

Do the bank tx to me, please, Simon, & I'll settle Claire up for the 25%. She can pay you your share of the winnings direct if she wishes.

Anyone else wants a % or two of mine, even if only 1% or 2.5%, they are very welcome. I'll get out of it entirely at this rate.....

Done.

Must be a lot easier now, too, I remember a few years back when travelling to Vegas was such a pain for you, with all the medical hoohah. Much respect.

Can you do transfers on Sky

I can send it to you then get it back tomorrow if they allow it.

No.

Hopefully, Mr Mainwaring has it under control. If push comes to shove, there are still some "directs" available @ G-luton, & we could sort it that way.

I'm "reasonably sure" we'll be fine.


Title: Re: sky poker tour luton - this weekend
Post by: EvilPie on January 23, 2012, 08:24:26 PM
I suppose I could buy in then arrange to be online at exactly the same time as Claire tomorrow when I unreg.

Bit sneaky but I think it'd work.


Title: Re: sky poker tour luton - this weekend
Post by: Claw75 on January 24, 2012, 07:25:05 PM
still a few seats available in the lobby.  assuming the 24 hours is rigid I should be good to go in 15 mins or so.


Title: Re: sky poker tour luton - this weekend
Post by: tikay on January 24, 2012, 07:31:31 PM
Yes, the 24 hour thing is generally exactly that.

Buy in soon as you are able, please, failing that, Baldrick has a plan.

nice man that was sat two to my right throughout collared me on my way out and said that he thought I'd played the best poker at our table all day.  Fine judge of the skillz imo.  I would also like to take this opportunity to say how incredibly tough the field was :)

Was that the beardy guy who'd never played before and bet out of turn against me?

Must stop overplaying ace high, sigh, ul clawbird.

nah guy in seat 5 - slightly older gent, pastely jumper, super eye for a good player.

bloke that took your seat did same as beardy guy against me later on.  I was first to act on the river with a busted straight draw and gonna rep the rivered flush, when he decided he was gonna bet 6k from a 10k stack out of turn.  dunno why there are no penalties for that kind of thing, yet occasionally they'll chuck them in for folding out of turn pre.

I know. Might start doing it myself. Everyone else gets away with it. Stopper bets oop ftw.

Beardy thought he'd put me on tilt with his oop bet? Hence me calling off tourney with ace high. So com.
