Got absolutely mullered in the €30k. All in with the best hand 3 times......  Ho hum 

Contemplating playing the €100k gtd €100 + 10 rebuy. (rebuys cost €55)

This comp has been introduced recently so it's new to me, but the structure is great.

Thinking of risking €275 max spend

I'll put a few extra spuds on if you want to bring your lappy round here for a bit of roast beef.

Bloody Hell Ralph, that's a great offer. Unfortunately, I have to stay in tonight, I'm holding a key that someone is coming to collect.

I'm wondering if it's better to wait until the end of the registration period (I hour) before buying in.

You see you first €100 +10 buys 3000 points, subsequent €55 re buys are 2000 points, but the €55 add on is 5000 points.

It would be a shame to bust before the add on.

Decided to enter before the break in the end. Took the re-buy straight away and then made it to the add on without indecent.

In for €220 total.

So no real binkage over the weekend, but on the plus side I did manage to fund my buy-ins (Just about) with my 6 man STT winnings.


I had a dream last night that I bought a new lap top poker, and when I used it for the first time I noticed a button in the middle of the keyboard with "T entry" on it in red letters. When I pressed it, it entered me into tournaments, even on sites where I wasn't registered or had no funds.

Every so often, a pop-up would say "Warning! Button Expires in 24 Hours...."    "Warning! Button Expires in 23 Hours...." and so on.

I was playing everything I could find, but I couldn't make the money in anything. I was playing terribly and I couldn't concentrate because I had too many tables open.

To make matters worse, I was having a debate on here about the ethics of it all....

I'm developing a theory, it goes like this...

The higher the stakes, the more likely the players will be loose / aggressive / lairy / creative, call it what you will... The more likely it is that plodding donkey, old bloke stylee poker will make a profit.
