Well done Dom! Can't wait to follow your progress over the weekend. It honestly seems (from all the threads and being so far away from the action as I am) that there are more boardsters playing in the open than not!

Well there are a few of us that are not Paul...:(

Anyway when you add in all the lurkers

it probably means I'm in the majority!

Dom ya fish, never had u down as a K8 man!

Blinds were starting to kill at that stage, and that was literally the best hand I had in a while. I said I was going to gamble before I called, and got lucky, and then Sam failed to outdraw me a few hands later with 9Ts against my AK in the BB. After that though things picked up, and I din't need the services of K8 again

Ya, I'd imagine there will be a 'mixed' standard at the open. Some of the play in the SE last night was just atrocious, and it wasn't helped by the fact that from the 400/800/100 level it got a to be a bit of a pushfest, albeit necessarily so with that many runners.

.

Dom it did become a bit of a pushfest and thats what killed me in the end, and when i did make a move it wasn't enough to get anyone off it.... dam these Sat's.... looks like i wont be playing the main event... So close yet so Far lol...

And well played dom as i was on your table for the last hour, you played some great poker and i think i seen you get lucky ONCE, which everyone needs....
best of luck in the main event....

Ah Feck. He ran KK into my Aces on Monday. Seems to be quite down about the entire thing. I know how he feels. Maybe he will get lucky tomorrow night in the super - sat.

Fergus was knocked out on Sunday wiht 66 v 9Ts after he limp reraised, you want to see his face when he seen what called him!

William Money · 04-04-2007 5:57pm

well done Dom, I figured u would make it.

Lazare · 04-04-2007 7:01pm

Well done Dom, well deserved.

Funny, the K8 hand against Sam's 55, that was the hand you went out with last Sunday (you with the 55).

Fergus is a very strong TAG player. Capable of big laydowns, and big moves. He uses position well and won't let himself get run over. I have always been impressed when at his table. I agree that he could do some damage if he gets through tomorrow night.

Best of luck to him.

i wasnt disputing his abilities although i dont agree completely with what has been said. he is certainly capable of making big laydown but i dont see him making too many big moves. id say he is a very capable ABC TAG player.

poker sucks!

got 6 playable hands in 3 hours, this is so sick - it looked like i was a rock! my range is so wide it was unbelievable:

88
77
KQ
KJ
A5
...and J2s lol

(every other hand were unsuited 3+ gappers, with the high card being 10 or less !!!!! (my range threshold!)

that **** just aint funny

coupled with the fact that the table only had one donk on it (me) - ollieb, nf rob, and all the others were familiar and good. The table was more/less silent - it was realy surreal.

I did enjoy watchin the footie, and the dealer had a serious pair with helped me pass the time

I ventured to the cash table 1/2 plhe and i've got to say that the standard is oh soooooo bad, it is truely unbelieveable - i play local alot with awful standard, but i still get surprised when i visit our fine capital that it is worse!! - the funny difference with us and ye is that we don't think that we're any good - it truely was comical!

I finally took my frustration out on a roulette wheel - won 1k in 1st and only spin and went home lol

I've decided not to play the ME coz i'm runnin oh so bad in tourneys, terrible waist of 3.5k with my confidence at rock bottom, but i will play the 1k on sunday thanks to number 8 !!

rant over feel beter already! gl all playin in the ME, hope to cyas on sunday

bops!
