No mate, I don't think so. The only time I have ever had a prob it's been content control. Sometimes they will tell you it's been lifted and it hasn't.

If it is content control, you can't browse blonde either

I can browse Blonde no problem.
It might be down to no 3G signal where I live anf GPRS seems not to be too strong.
Fotunately don't need it at home just when I'm away. Will have to try elsewhere.

Thanks Red

When I try and play online poker with Blonde I get an error message stating that the 'game servers can not be reached'.
Apart from removing 'content control' from my Voda broadband dongle is there anything else needed to be able to play?

Cheers.

Some of us have suspected man flu, but have to fend for ourselves because our wife is next door "having a drink with the girls"

Merry Christmas Red. Hope you feel better.

Phew, thought I'd lost the game when I clicked on this thread. Oh Fck, I've just lost the game.

FFS. Been doing so well.

Yippee Ki Yay Mother F*****!

Under option 1 can you re-buy twice in one go if you lose all of your chips in a hand? 

Yes.

Obviously the tournament should be structured with this in mind.

If this is the rule then you may as well say 'the more money you have the more chance of gaining chips'. Effectively if you're loaded you can go all in every hand with double the chips because you're bound to catch a hand sooner or later.

I prefer option 4. It teaches you how to grind properly. You can still buy in if you lose your chips.

Possibly, but I doubt it, somehow. I think his Short-Stack play is based on plain common-sense & good old patience, & positional awareness. Plus, a healthy disdain for the old wives tale that you are somehow obliged to push with any two once down to 10 x BB's.

But that's another story, & I don't really want to hijack this excellent thread.

be a rebel, hijack the thread!

I'm sure Dewi wont mind.

I thought that was the point of re-buys, to get all of their money into the prize pool.

Don't get me wrong, I don't mind people topping up the prize pool but constant raisers spoil games especially when they raise with junk a catch a hand.

fo shizzle my nizzle!
