Anyone out there know why Deauville is off?

Because the French Authorities deemed it illegal to hold a Poker Tournament in an Hotel which was not licenced as a Casino, as I understand it.
Cheers Tikay...new you'd know.

But if you are willing to invest £1k for a Tournament, you should be playing to win. Otherwise why are you playing a 1k buy-in tournament?

I feel a bit out of my depth discussing this, but playing to cash and survive so i can buy in to another tournament doesnt sound like optimal strategy with regard to game theory and risk/reward ratio.

I dont see why people are gettin on paul parkers back here for folding a hand. Ive never met the guy but heard he is a nice guy from a few other people.

Me personally am not good enough to put some1 on the 1 hand that beats me, and would have gone with my 99 on that board, but that is not relevant at all.

When you are at the poker table, you are making decisions on whats best for you, not to please the onlookers. Whatever decison you make at the table, as long as you are happy with it, then it shouldnt be criticised IMO. If Paul parker is happy with himself at the fold then who is anyone else to tell him otherwise. As for the guy who said that he is mainly cash game player so would be waiting for the nuts to put his money in, please, if you think thats how high stakes cash games work, please pull up a seat at my table!

And Damon D'Cruz has moved all-in yet again!!! And been called again!

Damon = three diamonds

Praz =

two spades

Which means...

Damon D'Cruz is OUT and becomes the 5th place finisher winning £13,800

Paul does play to win  and does know how to win
He has passed because he has decided he is behind    whether  he is right or wrong that was the choice he made on the information in front of him
it has nothing to do with just playing to survive

Goddamn it! That's totally ruined tomorrow mornings puntastic headline... D'Cruz Control.

Aaah well, maybe he'll give me another chance next time.

Can anyone think of a good pun for a possible Praz win?

I've given up on Karl Mahrenholz.

Want to make it clear im not getting on his back. Just saying i disagree with Tikays line where he emphasises survival, not winning.

Finally, take a look at these two mugs. Pretty pally, huh? Who would have though that Karl had just re-raised Praz for around 140 grand??

After taking this snap, Praz requested a sneak peak to "see if we look gay."

So, what's the verdict?

Very gayyyyyyy!
