this leads me to ask the question as to why somebody who has no problem to pay a big entry to a tourney / sit down with a deep stack in a cash game and clearly has the ability to think straight/analyse situations - potential outcomes etc is too tight to pay an extra few hundred quid for fully comp insurance for his nice flash car?

UL - but remember all clouds have silver linings - u got out alive.

Yeah we got the news on the final table of the BSP game! Pretty freaky but at least there was no serious injury. Hope yer ok Flipper!

Ah Flipper, no excuse for not having fully comp if you have a decent car. Sorry to hear about it, but at least you weren't injured could've been alot worse.

Btw, if you want to save a few quid on insurance on the next car but still get fully comp try britton insurance who'll sort you out with an excess so you pay the first few K if you have any damage but your premium will be alot lower.

Scary, but lucky to be able to tell the story. Pity about the nice motor. Hope it was paid for.

No tax disc either

Don't listen to them flipper - Insurance companies have +EV, hence the premium payers have -EV, bad beat but good call all the same

1. They don't offer comprehensive insurance on 2.0L BMWs to 23 year olds with 6 points on their license.
2. This could almost be a topic for another thread. I probably wouldn't shell out €3-4K for Comp insurance anyway. I treat money the same as anyone else - ie. I try to spend the least amount possible. Just because I play higher stakes doesn't mean I'm frivolous with money in every day life. It just so happens that money is the "tool of the trade" I try not to even see it in it's everyday value - try to see it more like confetti.

But thank you guys for the kind words.

You're some luckbox getting out of that alive, I'd say you're shocked to ****! €28k gone and all that but money doesn't matter a ****e when it comes down to it, plus you'll make it back in a good week in the omaha game.
