My debut this season too... likewise not happy with how it went... every time I had something I ran into something bigger...except when I hit the quads against you...  went out with 99 against 10 J s ... thought I was ahead coz Linz bet a bit bigger than normal.... but it was best I"d had for ages... she was always going to hit flush though... still maybe Rodders will fair better.... wish at least one more of us had got to final table... but ugmike had cruel luck as well KK didnt work too good for him. Hope we fair better next time.

Allyson also had KK outdrawn, really unlucky. A few cards hitting differently and we would have a few on the final table. I watched your table and from what I saw I don"t think any of you did too much wrong. Don"t get hung up on results, you are going to lose most tournaments not matter how well you play. The team was unlucky tonight but I am still confident we can get a good finish in this league and win promotion. Your table looked like fun anyway, Betfair not allowing you to talk on tables that you are not sat at is annoying. Hope everybody keeps playing as I think the results will come.

Good luck at the tables between now and the next one. Will let you know my result later.

well our luck can only improve, do we do any social events where we meet up in swansea and play, quite enjoyed playing tonight and will definately be back for more

[Outlander]

Go Rodders... railing you... you can do it!!

[newps]

go on rodders, can you post the result here when you are done.

[AAroddersAA]

I think we have come second tonight whatever happens from here, we are three way and it could go on for a while, North London are going to win it.

[AAroddersAA]

I managed to get the win tonight so that is not five out of six tournaments one of us has won. I hit everything on the final table and was pleased with the way I played. I think I made 4 sets.

I am pretty sure we were second behind North London, so the league will now look:-

1) North London:  15
2) Swansea:         10
3) Kent                5

It going to be tough from here but lets not give up and keep fighting for it.

EDIT - Corrected table

It is not just one team, I can"t remember if it is top 2 or top 3. There is added value for the top team buyins to an APAT national chmapionship event for the top 4 players in that team.

1) NL
2) Swansea 10
Big gap to make up unless you get more back up on final table. Great effort to win it though... but hard to make up ground on NL by yourself... need the rest of us to get there too. Unfortunately I normally work on a Sunday night... so prob wont be able to give my support again for a while... not that it counted for much tnite. GL.... as long as one person wins each event and has some support on final table easy... you can do it.... four players... three who"ve won and Newps out to prove a point next time.. you can do it. Just to be on the safe side though find some way to nobble the computers at the Iwaniak household and take Linzi and Richard out.

Congrats Steven on your win,   very well played. The rest of the team didn"t have the best of luck tonight but it was still an excellent result for Swansea as we gain two match points and this keeps us very much in the promotion race. We also retain our position of second in Division Three. The Top three teams in the Division will gain promotion at the end of the season and the top four individual players of the winning team will be awarded APAT event seats. Swansea are looking good at the moment but we need everyone to keep playing, so let"s keep up the good work guys!  Hope to see you for the next game.  Allyson

Well done Steven on another fantastic result, and great support from Allyson again.  Sorry not to be giving much scoring support - Allyson got moved to our table and I promptly exited the tournament (I"m not doing a good job of impressing the captain!) in 2 all-in hands after two card-dead hours.

Anyway, hopefully I can run a bit better at the next one and catch up on event wins...

Cheers,

Mike

[newps]

well done rodders, sorry i could not be more help. just googled the women from north london and she is uk womens champ, the standard is very high. does skyler dyck ever play, he writes a blog which seems popular

[Stormpetrel]

Hey Mike,  you were very unlucky to go out Sunday on a very strong hand, I think it was  :as: kc.  I"m very impressed by the effort you make in all your matches and I remember you won the first league game you played, a fantastic achievement! Hope you get better luck next time  Still a good night in terms of points for Swansea though thanks to Steven"s win   Allyson

[Stormpetrel]

Hi Chris, very hard luck Sunday losing on a full house!  As you noticed, the standard of the league is very high and Linda Iwaniak (linziwan) is a very tough player to beat. Sadly Skyler Dyck hasn"t played this season but he"s more than welcome to come back and play for Swansea. Hope to see you for the next game and you get better luck Allyson
