So many paths to take in life, i know so many people who have wasted a lot of years by umming and arrring over which one to take so fair play to you imo, decide what you're going to try and do and do it. Not like you can't try uni again at 23 or 24 anyways, friend of mine finishing his course at 28 and enjoying himself.

If everyone took the sensible or linear pathways then it would be a dull world.

Ok but when he's skint and living with mum and dad at 35 we'll blame you  Cheesy

If we count the 2 AM zoom session this morning then we're up about 120 today which is highly enjoyable after the long b/e stretch pretty much for the past month. Started playing on Sky Poker either on the deep TV tables at .5/.10 or at the .10/.20 tables and managed to win a 100 quid today which is nice. No tracker software works on there which is probably a good thing as means there are very few regs as they can't show off their graphs on 2 plus 2 but also means you'll have to take my word for it. Bit gutting this also means that I can't look at the hand histories. I guess I'll have to look at others. Ran fucking well today probably helped by Lil'Dave's well wishes and the thought of living with my parents at the age of 35 AK>KK KK>AA and a few sets and a straight flush for good measure. 

Doubt there's many garage heads on here but may as well ay

Morning Mr Dave.

To be fair, we are ALL behind him, & most of us wet blankets who advised putting educatuion - just briefly - first, also were at pains to say "but good luck whatever you do". And we meant it.

I also said that very few people of his age - & this certainly included me, back in the day - listened to the advice of elderly folk. Poker is so so addictive though, it's like a beautiful woman with her skirt up her arse & a push-up bra, we all find it hard to resist.

We don't have to take your word for it, I actually commentated on several of your hands "live" on Sky Poker TV Ch 861 on that night (Tuesday), as did the Studio Guest, Neil Channing. The screen-name was the clue, so it was good to give you a nice shout-out.

I seem to recall, amongst others, 8-8 on the Button. Wink

And no, it's a fundamental strategic policy on Sky Poker not to allow third party tracking software. It's paying increasingly good dividends, too.

Good luck on Sky Poker & elsewhere.

Ah gutted I missed that. Is there anywhere I can get a replay? Yeah I think it's good but would prefer there to be the ability to track results but not allow people to have huds. Also the lack of hand histories is kind of annoying can understand it to some extent. People are more likely to feel they can play how they want if no ones watching but I think even a fun player would want to look at a hand after its been played even if you can't see the opponents hand.

Most Shows are repeated 2 or 3 times, but mostly in the following day or two, so you may have missed it now, but I'll take a look.

Players CAN view Hand Histories on Sky Poker. They are not 'Stars quality, but are perfectly adequate & fit for purpose. I assume, by Hand Histories, you mean something like this?

Yeah there's no other way to show them. I agree they look pretty bad but I put them up here more of a vent than them actually having any value. Already worked out I misplayed the KQ hand anyway and it should be a x/f on the turn.
