And it said....

"Listen wanker, how should I play AK in early position then?".....

It is perhaps fortunate that I did not reply.

Tonight, I shall mainly be tetchy

Probably raise.

There could be a case made for limping at an aggressive table if hero had been limp-folding a lot but without further info it's impossible to say. Why don't people provide all the necessary info when asking these questions? Frustrating I know, but don't get too tetchy about it, just reply asking him what the blinds were before committing to an answer.

So, in the unlikely event I cash in the Sky Poker thing. Can I ask DTD for a cheque?

1 Orbit Penalty.

Jeez, not the best of nights.....

Worked the whole day in Feltham, very productive, then played Online this evening, cashing small in a Deepstack which took 4 hours, but was huge fun.

Then the fun really began.

Over 20 PM's incoming in just over 2 hours, all on the SPUKT Grand Final, asking every conceivable question. Dealt with them all politely & correctly, I think & hope. Though astonishing that one said "I don't have a Sky Poker Account, can DTD pay me in Cash?"....... After Swansea, when we had made certain T & C's abundantly clear in advance, we still got folks coming on afterwards & challenging T & C's we'd made 100% clear on in advance, so it's a case of belt & braces now.

Then a serious issue - unconnected - arose. Someone was in deep poo, very deep poo, & needed me to act as an intermediary to try & sort something. The only way they could contact me was via my Facebook, which, as you may know, I am passive on, just accepting friend requests rather than give offence by ignoring. (There were over 100 Friend Requests awaiting "approval" - shows how often I visit Facebook!).

So I wrote a long-e-Mail to so & so, detailing the problem, then went back on Facebook to let the guy in the poo know I was on the case, & doing what I could. It was a sad case, a bad but genuine misunderstanding, with serious consequences.

At which point, a sort of Facebook version of an MSN "pop-up" occurred. I have MSN, but refuse to use it, it's dormant, so I can only assume it was a Facebook Application.

And it said....

It was nice of him to use your Luton nickname....

I believe you can ask to be paid in DTD vouchers.

[gatso]

can I then swap those dtd vouchers for cash?

[Colchester Kev]

Yes, but ONLY via a blonde poker account obv.

You are not funny, any of you. You look funny, but you're not.

I have things to do, thingy things, so, with all due respect, & not to be personal, like, please go away.

Today, I shall mainly be tetchy. I hope I make myself clear.

Do you need a sky account to get tetchy, or can anyone get it ?
