seen this twice now

"tikay off the telly"  

..... Is this a statement or a request? 

Maybe a £1/2 game without a live straddle, or with a sit-down limit of £300 (or whatever amount) might bridge the gap between the 50p/£1 tables and the £1/2 tables at DTD?

Yes. Definitely worth considering.

I mention it in my previous post but if you sit sit down with £300 at a 1/2 game which is regularly being straddled to 4 then you are short stacking. Actually you are mid stacking at 75bbs which is an awful stack to manage effectively.

There's no way to bridge the gap. Either play 1/2 or .50/1 full stacked or short stacked. Don't play 1/2/4 mid stacked imo.

Think you've misinterpreted my post Matt.  I was suggesting a different table be introduced at DTD that bridges the .50/1 and the 1/2 tables.  It could be a limited sit-down or not allow straddles.  Those who want to sit down with more or straddle can sit on the other tables.  I'm guessing there's a valid reason why DTD hasn't introduced them, or maybe there's just not the demand for them?

Otherwise, I agree with the rest of what you've said and I also think that playing scared is a guaranteed way to play badly. 

Got ya.

Yeah a 1/2 game with no live straddle would be perfect. They could definitely do with something like this on deepstack weekends when there's no 50/1.

How about a pot limit holdem table? That'd be interesting.

On the weekends that there is a deepstack we run and have run for some months a £1-£2  with £200 max buy in this is advertised EVERY £300 & 20-20 all you have to do is ask at the desk!

You could use one of Tikays "MAN" scarfs to create a marei trap

not guilty!

ok so why don't you tell the good members of the forum ---  inconclusively how i ALLEGEDLY cheated on 2 picture quizes .... not 1 but 2 ....

I rest my case.

Misinterpritation of the Post!!!

ok so why don't you tell the good members of the forum ---  inconclusively how i ALLEGEDLY cheated on 2 picture quizes .... not 1 but 2 ....

I Put it to you RED that you are using your influence and familiararity on this forum to oust a formidable opponent........
There is no proof because           I DID NOT CHEAT
you can't produce proof because, There is no proof because I DID NOT CHEAT

ok so why don't you tell the good members of the forum ---  inconclusively how i cheated on 2 picture quizes .... not 1 but 2 ....

not proven

I put it to red to PROVE it inconclusively

So last night when I went to DTD, I praised Mark, AKA Castor_Troy on the depth of his knowledge of diverse and obscure subjects. I then went on to congratulate him on his wonderful performance in the quiz. He was wreathed in smiles ans obviously very pleased with himself.

"By the way" I asked, What kind of pheasant was that again"

"Er.... what do you mean?"

"I mean the pheasant. The national bird of Guyana that you recognised from a single glance yesterday"

"Er... I can't think at the moment.... um er... it's just slipped my mind"


He was totally banjaxed. Absolutely flummoxed.  He didn't have a Scooby.

5 minutes later, when he'd had a sly peek at the computer behind the poker desk, he came running up.. "I've remembered now, it's a canje pheasant.... "

Ladies and gentlemen, I put it to you that Mr Castor is a cheat.

That concludes the evidence for the prosecution. We all know he is as guilty as Hell, but, so that justice can be seen to be done, we will await his defence before we strip him of his points.

Ok and now how it really went ..
After coming out of 2 hours of interviews the hero (i.e ME) was approached by the villain (i.e RED)
Hero  --   " Hi tom, good to see you, how are you today?
Villain --  "WHAT Was the name of that bird?
Hero  --  "Sorry?"
Villain --  "haha!!!! I knew you where cheating"
Hero  --  "What? O' the bird From the Quiz? If Im honest Tom i can't remember with out seeing the pic again, it was a couple of days ago. and my heads a bit fried from  interviews"
Villain  --  "hahaha!! hahaha!! Im Gonna Out you on the forum, I knew you where cheating!!!!!! "
Hero  --  "What? Is it that inconceivable that I KNEW the answer?"
Villain  --  "YES !! Im gonna out you"

In reds eyes I am guilty without any evidence just a THEORY! and this "THEORY" has holes

the case is soley built on ----- your guilty cos I think you are!!!!
Reds Statement is a blatant misrepresentation of the truth.....

Innocent until proven guilty !!!!!!

Technically, this is the correct answer, but in light of the fact that this is Mr Castor's first post, (and also because he is considerably fatter than me) I have decided to disqualify him.

I am a moderator, it's my quiz, and my decision is final.

7 points still up for grabs...

Disgusting display of sportsmanship IMO

Ruling !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
