Monkey Staking II

lol

[matt674]

Where did i say the games were tougher? i said the standards were worse

there is more volume of traffic on a sunday more than any other day of the week, the majority of which are your recreational weekend players. blimey, just read thru every sunday thread started on the internet board

i used to cash quite regularly on sundays when playing regular tournaments - these 180's a completely different kettle of fish

[matt674]

having been knocked out of the warm up early i took a couple of hours out before returning for the freerolls - managed to donk out of both of those nice and early so just to see if my statement of last sunday was accurate i decided to try just one $20 180 sng.........

i'm definately not playing sunday evenings again well played squire

That sure is an interesting post.

Play more moan less

I am not sure i like shoving the turn fwiw, his min bet suggests we might be able to get to showdown without getting the lot in.

^^^^^^^^this^^^^^^^

the straight draw, flush draw and raggy aces all just got there so why so keen to get all in?

standard crying shove...

[matt674]

yep, added to the annoyance that i was stupid enough to sign up to the tournament to start with after what i said last week - as i hit the all in button i said to myself "go on - show me you called off nearly half your stack on the flop with AK" - then laughed when he turned over A4 o/s

ho hum

[matt674]

from now on sunday evening is for shoe shopping only...........................

Agree with James, don't see any option when we've got 1k already in the middle.

what freerolls are tehre on a sunday apart from the turbo takedown once a month

[matt674]

there was the $100000 "congratulations" freeroll and i was playing a PCA mega-path freeroll

[matt674]

and the month draws to a close, pretty much in the same vein as most of the beginning - dont think i've ever had a month as bad for so few cashes, which must be a good sign for next month

fingers crossed

Erm, update?

I presume for one reason or another Matt has not been around to play, I'm guessing I missed something on another thread?

[Ironside]

not heard a thing
