Makes Huddersfield look like a bit of a shit hole. [/quote] its certainly not the best end of Huddersfield thats for sure,its located on the bottom ring road in the first circle of squalor.by that i mean imagine a dart board the bull is the town centre wich is very nice,loads of decent shops, pubs, etc. then the outer bull is the ring road, industry and flats for the err less fortunate. a not very nice area at all.then we have the next section upto the treble line wich is council estates galore and boarded up pubs with a few no go areas depending on exactly wich race you are and area you are in.Outside this area things start to become much better rather rapidly,nice little villages dotted about, friendly pubs ,extortionate house prices etc. basically the same demographic as most large towns i suspect.those without money live in the built up urban/comercial areas.those with money live outside in the villages and green areas.
there was recently a mini riot at the lonsborough flats where the residents(mainly asylum seekers) were not very happy about the 20" portable tvs the council had provided them all with. So they preceded to throw them from their balconies and make as much nuisance as possible until the council turned up with widescreens.

Glad Alonso's playing. Looks like he's almost certainly going to be staying at Liverpool then. Talk on the Radio regarding Barry if he plays tomorrow he cannot play in Europe for anyone else until Feb? Assume same for Alonso - seems if you play in Prelims you can still play for another team in European comps post Feb - is this new or even correct? If Barry plays tomorrow he CAN play in the Champions League for another side, because it's a different competition. However, the way we played in the first half if he joined us he wouldn't be getting Champions League football... in wich case he could still move to Arsenal,although they too are p poor tonight.

As a reward for being Huddersfields first olympic gold medalist Anita Lonsborough was bestowed the honour of having these flats named after her. the lonsborough flats. unfortunately they are now subject to a planning application to be demolished along with the sports centre next door to make way for a new Tesco supermarket. Its a shame really as the view of the gassworks from here is second to none and also the magnificent Galpharm stadium.

push,shove then push again.
Not sure that shoving is the best plan here. We've got a massive hand and should look to maximise what we can get out of the aggressive oppo. The guy in the cut off is getting 4 to 1 on his money so his range is pretty wide. If he's got any of that flop at all he's got no choice but to get his money in. He's not a major worry but if he's got us beat then we need the other guys money to make up for any loss. Shoving might make him fold and I don't think we want that. At the moment we've got to think we're ahead and can't consider folding. If another heart comes down we still can't get away from the hand so we really need to get as much money in the pot as possible. If you think the oppo will call a shove then do it. However, you've got position on him so use it to your advantage. Flat call the £40 and give him a chance to make a play on the turn. If you flat it he will suspect the flush draw so hope for no heart. If no heart comes on the turn he will probably bet big to protect his holding which will give you the opportunity to push with him having a good price to call. This is a hand that you want as many chips in as possible. If you lose a big pot here then you've been cold decked and just have to put it behind you and reload. Hope it worked out well. oops shot too soon. you are obviously completely right.good post .

sounds just like my pal tbag, his faveourite trick is flatting from sb or checking his option with AA. could quite easily be the case here. then of course he can never get away when hes beat.
Hand analysis over it's pokerfan's mate tbag and he has aa 100% of the time FACT. why are you flaming me? i merely stated that a pal of mine (regardless of nickname) falls into the exact player type given in the description,and he loves to get tricky in the blinds with AA. this could quite easily be the case here and our hero is miles in front.
