    Mods, can you please sticky this thread and de-sticky (if that is a word) the previous round’s thread?

    We are finally approaching the business end of this boring walkoverfest\enthralling contest with only 31 finally tuned athletes (and Halfbaked the utter fish who is about to get totally owned) still in.

    Congrats to DITTag who won the second bounty (please PM me your address for shipping)

    Draw for round 3 below (fresh from the Rig-o-Meter2000), all games to be played by 14th July

    Note that there are two games from Round 2 that are still to be completed, however BCB badgered me into putting the draw up now so please feel free to get your game out of the way.

    Best of luck to all, please PM me with any questions and I’ll do my best to ignore you.

    1. Norwich Fan Rob vs Cuban Son
    2. Chucky the tree vs shoutman
    3. MisterMonkey vs ZZR1100
    4. Dub13 vs (boogey man OR Brayruit)
    5. Primewise vs Big City Banker
    6. luckylucky vs JustMac
    7. Macspower vs SIDESHOW BOBs
    8. Flipper vs bops
    9. metafora vs Iago
    10. Tar.Aldarion vs ullu
    11. DITTag vs delanec8

    14. El Stuntman vs Halfbaked

    this is so rigged - you have clearly picked the biggest fish in the pond to be your next opponent!!

    I take it I got some form of walkover then? I'm confused! :)

    seeing as he never contacted me and you did...your walkover stands unless you can actually play the game by the weekend

    your move Meester Bond

    First part of the definition
    PokerPissTaker has a few hours to PM me or he loses out and 'ullu' is up.
    G'luck.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 347 ✭✭Brayruit


    boogey man beats Brayruit 2 - 1.

    took a while to get organised - v. good game in the end

    first game was quite long and I took it down eventually

    lost the second game with AA falling to two pairs on the flop

    last game also fairly short - well played Alex for making some good laydowns when I thought I had you

    GL in the next round!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 113 ✭✭boogey man


    yea good game enjoyed it got a bit lucky v aa
    and was asleep in the first game and you took full advantage

    6. luckylucky 2 vs JustMac 1

    Bit of an epic encounter this one, lasted almost 2 hours on PPP late last night, I poxed the first game after being on the ropes for most of it having made some dubious calls which had me in trouble, I won at least 3 all-ins never being a huge favourite.

    Second game with both stacks about the same I misjudged where I was at and lost when I re-re-raised with AT against Justin's JJ, JJ held up.

    3rd Game I basically managed to get hands at the right time.

    Tbh feel very lucky lucky to have got through this one, UL and GG Justin.

    Wasn't very happy with the way I played. In fairness I got more than my fair share of good hands and hit a good few flops. Should have won the first with a bit more agression when I had a healthy chip lead. My slowplayed KK ran into a set in the second and boy did I feel stupid calling the river bet.

    I'm glad that I at least won the second game for a half respectable result.

    GG Barry and GL in the rest of your matches.

    Not really. I PMed you to play, El Stuntman gave me a walkover since you did not reply in a week. You then replied and he reversed the walkover. You said you were free anytime, I PMed you to play the night before the extended deadline and you never replied until now, in this thread.

    I'm not getting into a slanging match but check your outbox and my inbox I've never deleted a message and you'll see all the messages and conversation between all concerned.I made myself avail for a week and got a reply to play at a time I couldn't make I tried to ring but couldn't get thru. I doesn't matter guess I'm just unlucky with my opp. sit..


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 60,110 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tar.Aldarion


    Here is the Last PM I got from you:
    Stuntman has said we have til sat to play our match I will check my inbox every day a will be free all week with 24hours notice
    I then asked to try and play the following evening, the day before the deadline and you never replied until now, I didn't get any missed calls, my phone has een within a foot of me for 5 years and always on! I don't know what I could have done, the deadline passed without you replying.

    I said weekends or after work, not just one evening. I PMed you on a monday with over a week and a half left in the deadline. I asked you would you be able to play thursday evening, to give you some time to be free. If you did not want to play on teh thursday we would have played another evening in the week. You then did not reply until the following monday saying, your internet was down(for a week?). I had been given a walkover, not my decision. It was then reversed and I suggested a time to play again, and you didn't reply until I was given a walkover again!

    If you feel quite hard done by(as I did not arrange a time in the first week) you can have my place in this round, I don´t really mind, I just wanted to play for fun of beating boards people. :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,720 ✭✭✭El Stuntman

  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 60,110 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tar.Aldarion


    Waiting to play PokerPissTaker, he is having trouble with support. I set up a stars account and got a friend to transfer me money. So I can play you Ullu if I get through.
    Internet cafes are such a rip off!


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 60,110 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tar.Aldarion


    PokerPiss Taker 2 Tar 0
    Last hand all in preflop A7(short) vs his A4, he got quads. :D

    Should Stars charge you if you register for a HU match and leave before it starts? :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 175 ✭✭PokerPissTaker


    The result you've all been waiting for

    Poker Piss Taker 2
    Tar.Aldarion 0

    With a 7/8 to 1 chip lead in the second game He moves in from the SB I call with A4 He had A7 ****4444****
