[Rotty]

Good luck to him, I might head down at rail the final table for you Rotty, can give you regular updates if you like, was going to head there tomorrow anyway.

 

[Rotty]

that would be superb, especially if I am stuck at work

One of the shorties just doubled up, bah.

I REALLY REALLY REALLY need to go to bed or I'll end up with a face full of keyboard tomorrow morning, want to see how this pans out though

 

[Rotty]

yep

Utmost respect to anyone that can play poker.

I know the basics, kind of, but I just get so bored of playing. When it comes to everything else I am Mr Patience but poker...."screw it, all in" just so I can get away

Most recent update about the guy flopping the nut flush.. I'd say he could've played that a bit better, no?

not sure, he could have checked flop and got no action, I think I would have bet more turn and river though

Flop bet was correct but the size of it was questionable - 14k into a pot that was already 50k+ would set off alarm bells in my head! Calling on the turn was risky, as it allowed the board to pair and kill off any chance of raising the river, as he couldn't be sure if his opponent filled up I guess.

20 min break, I'll never be able to stay awake through that, I have to go to bed. Best of luck to him

cheers for supporting him if you have to go

If he has a late one tomorrow too and maybe gets home Thurs he will have to get a shift on, I pick him up for Vegas at 4.30 am Friday
