Where you already drunk milky? (I believe you attacked a nice premier crux straight after it finished) The final hand i said do we both get the same prize which was confirmed by admin. You asked me to play you properly so I said ok lol and went allin with KQ. You called with a2. Flop brought a king and the river brought an ace. 1st and 2nd is the same so well done. You predicted when there was 18 left that i was going to double you up- I told you I wouldnt do it until we were heads up, Least I was good to my word.

Cheers mate. Cats are better to kick anyway, dogs tend to bite back.

milkybar plays as bennyboi on betfair. if u email betfair you will get a refund i am sure. You would think I had free blinds but someone almost almost always beat me to it- it made life very difficult for me.
ariston

You will be pleased to hear the 2 seats went to blondepoker forumites, me and the milkybarkid. See you in monte carlo everyone.

Yeh well played dave. Good comeback from becoming one of the lower stacks in the final.
What a nice bloke that nugget fellow sounds, I wonder if he used to take an apple for the teachers at school   Although I think dave is married and he doesn't swing that way anyway.

Think there are 2 next weekend (sunday?). One is BF only the other one is for all crypto sites. Not sure of exact day/time but have keep your eye on it. A festival without a thew top 3 finish? where can I get money on him for the main event??
ariston

Well done Willy, 2 big results in a week. If only you hadn't been crushed by a 2 outer in the main Event at Deauville how good a week could it have been?
ariston

Will vouch for the value, I finished 12th and keith got 4th. Hope to see some of you in there this week (especially Tikay). Think they are running 2 sats this week and there is no way they will have enough players to cover the package costs.

I usually do one of 2 things when it gets to deal time. Chip count which I calculate so the figures are correct or say I will take x. Once I have decided what I will take that is it no more negotiations. 2 interesting deal situations for you:
1/ Small 30 rebuy effort and 4 of us discussing a deal, I am the Tikay (shortstack) and I say I will take 1200 which is laughed at. I say we play on then and they continue to talk (rare for me to be quiet I know). Suddenly they are shaking hands and have agreed we all take 1400 and play for the difference.
2/ End of a typical Saturday night comp, 10 minutes from chip count (casino closes early). I say we may as well deal now on a chip count as there are only 10 mins left and my stack is worth 500, I aint going out next for the 140 on offer. We barter for a few minutes and the suggestion is vetoed. I tell the table my next few decisions are bound to be tricky ones and I may need some time for each decision (Lol). 2 players go out in the last 3 hands because they didnt understand how a chip count worked and they thought that they would only be paid for the position their chips entitled them to. Mallu raised everyone of the last 4 hands and got reraised by aj when he was holding aces. Net result more money for me and a lot more for Mallu.

ps cant believe no mention of our "private" tourney that was invaded by the french. Perfect tag team at the end, don't think I have ever passed AKQT dbl suited from the sb to let the bb walk before but national pride was at stake.

For what I have heard Willie has picked up a deal with betfair for all his tournaments this year. This deal started last week where he had 3 cashes in 4 events including 20k in one of them. He is the only member of the team to be picked up by Betfair and I am sure he will have plenty of results for them. Had dinner with him last week in Deauville and he's a total gent and seemed pleased with his deal, he was also very supportive of the young(ish) Betfair qualifier who made the EPT final.

If people can't do deals because of sponsorship then I think thats fair enough. How many of us have been "stiffed" by someone in a deal one week because someone had a big stack then a few weeks later the same players expects a favour in deal negotiations. I have a very long memory and will never deal with certain players, it may take a long time but at some stage the tables will turn. I will also go out of my way to look after players who have been "good" to me in the past. The fairest way to do a deal is obviously on a chip count basis but so many players do not understand this.
ariston

I will admit that on more than one occasion Tikay was at the final 2 or 3 tables wirth more than 5 bbs. He even was close to the chip lead in the 500, what is the world coming to? Tikay with a big stack is as rare as me being quiet or Julian getting unlucky 
ariston

Ul tikay, how much did you get in the last event at Deauville? Did you manage to stop your nosebleed after you got a bigstack 2 tables out and how did tony cas finish? Good luck with rest of week in Walsall mate.
