Thanks for that.  I'm not keen on suited connectors at best of time..... the amount of times I have had AA cracked by "lesser" hands.  Does dent the confidence tho to have such vitriol heaped upon you.

The guy went ballistic and invited me to die a slow death amongst other things. To be honest, I have never had such a negative reaction.  You would think I had shot his dog or something. My question is.... was it such a bad decision?  I had already made a raise which he reraised.  But I had him well covered by the time I had to call his 910 chips.  I was aware that I was likely to be behind but even if I lost, it would put me on or around average chips with the rest.  Should I be saying 10 Hail mary's and will I be forever damned or was it a reasonable decision to make in the 20 seconds allowed?  ( I did finish in the money in the end)

On all the sites I am registered on, I am known as Jackspratt or I Jack.  A sprat is a fish...which describes my playing ability. The two t's matches my typing skills.   My name isn't Jack in real life.. as I'm typing I think ...why? (seemed like a good idea at the time)

Over to you Mr Freud..

hello and welcome

 Jcspratt

Looks like an extra from the exorcist to me!

That will be me then (just got off the exercise bike!)

The next person will have the wings of a dove, the voice of an angel and the face of....

Being an uncle is great fun and reminds me why we don't have kids.  As they grow it reminds you that you are getting older.. but it's fun in any event.

The wheel of life has continued to turn and I have had some highs and lows but I'm looking forward to winning my first MTT not sure if it will be in 2006 or 2016 but I'll keep trying.

You must have been lucky Flush, I can't seem to beat Robert at HU comps. Always seems to out play me.


(Steve don't leave yourself logged on!)

I've put in one or two trap doors even she doesn't know about......  Thinking of changing the name of the gaff to Bates Motel.  Has a certain ring to it!

Too late.... I've put more locks and chains on the door than Houdini ever owned.

They can have yours

out all too soon... but enjoyed the experience.  Looking forward to winning next week instead now.
Thanks guys
