    I will probably play in an attempt to do another SE two-in-a-row (did it with the €75 Wednesday game back in early 2006): Move over Layne, it's time for Back To Back Burke to shine :)

    it will be my pleasure to donate my chips to you in this magnificent obsession of yours :pac:

    he made a good effort! 4th after being short a long way, disappointing turnout of 24 for a well-structured game. A boards 2-3-4 with hatedajacks in 3rd.

    I entered HU with a 3/1 chip deficit to a certain Mr Eddie the Eagle. 5 minutes later, I have a 15/1 chip advantage. 10 minutes later, he's won :eek:

    getting in ahead against that man is not a good idea :rolleyes:

    Eddie is such a legend, he was playing better than usual last night! Ran better than God, that goes without saying, and my A4c was no match for his T9c AIPF. My ITM % in tournaments keeps getting better and better this year! So much for issuing that challenge to Lady Luck in the BBV thread :)

    Driving home I was certain either yourself or Kev would take that down, I like Eddie's aggressive plays but I felt if his luck ran out in any way he would be in serious trouble against you two sharks!

    Maybe you should just fold A4 more often. :rolleyes:

    Never! :) A4 is usually the key to any individual night going well, based on this very limited sample of tournaments; hopefully Harrington can write a piece about it in any new book he comes out with :)

    Sitting at home lastnight and not realised the time 8:45 boll*cks not gonna make it, Kev is too funny "no more tournies for me they dont interest me" unlucky Glyn that Eddie fella is one slippery character.

    One thing that cracks me up about him alot of people like the A rag but no not Eddie The Eagle K rag is the monster to him.

    lol, that is so true

    I ship for 25k at one point OTB (blinds are 1.5/3) and Eddie looks at his hand and immediately says 'I have to call this'

    K9 soooted :pac:

    my downfall hand HU was when he called the loots PF with K4o vs my AJs (had him outchipped). sigh

    62 runners for the fitz scalps tonight, I came 3rd for a 600 payout. Enjoyable game, some of the hands at the final table were crazy.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,755 ✭✭✭tylerdurden94


    Thougt i would take a spin into the SE tonight seen as i missed the game on Thursday. 4 tables tonight wasnt bad happy little game.

    Slowish start but then started to pick up some hands was on 11000 at the break was happy, few hands back after the break i raise it up with 55 and a fellow boardsie ships it in i think for a minute and call he turns over 99 uh oh no good me thinks board comes down AK10J and sweet Q on the river chop it up :D few hands later i pick up 55 again against said fellow he ships i call again he has AK K99 flop i pick up the 5 high flush draw on the turn but couldnt do it on the river.

    Few more hands on that table before it breaks moved to new table couple of hands in i go from healthy stack to bust in two hands with a kinda sick hand to take most of my stack. Raise it up with QQ get one caller board is 10 high with two hearts bloke ships it in with AhKh ehhh i think sweet Q on the turn but horrible heart on the river cripples me. Exit hand im in the BB blind with only 1400 left and Ektor limps and i ship the rest with A6 he calls with Q10 he has been running hotter than the sun whamo house for him, gn gg wp.

    Well done! The €440 game will be a tougher prospect I think. How did Bad Beat Joe get on last night? He dogged me three fecking times in a row to knock me out by 11.30, sick man that he is.

    I knocked him out in 4th.My jj beat his kq to leave him lowish and then he pushed on tilt with 7,5 and i wake up with kings. He still moaned that he was so unlucky.
