why

Because we are playing a high-variance game tonight - all out win or bust.

We have Walsall in our sights. Watch out Tony - you are a target.

Dave, you"re an incredible player. In 5th place at the first break, down to 38th and now back up in 1st.
High variance play is what I wanted tonight, which is your normal style anyway.

Let"s take this down guys! We are in 1st, 3rd, 5th, 11th, 13th, 14th & 20th out of 31 left.

We can win this - but make sure you squash out the Wallies!

Sorry guys, no points from me. Annoyed with myself cos I should have contributed some from the position I was in. Could blame the player who made two idiotic calls against me and got lucky twice but I should have been able to hold on to my chips anyway.

sorry john but don"t think either call was idiotic.

Hand 1: I called your min raise in the BB (If I remember right) with 44, then check raised your c-bet.... on a Q23 board... you called my c/r with 88 (odd call - shove or fold here is best?). I got lucky with the 4 on the turn, and then you called my river value bet with 88 on a Q2343 board.

Hand 2: I"m chip leader and in the BB with 79s... and you shove from MP with AK for 6xBB - pretty standard call for another 5x with enough chips to spare imo. I won the 40/60.

Think you misplayed the first hand - I think calling me idiotic is a bit harsh... I didn"t make any mistakes in the hand.  Second hand played itself to some extent.

15th - kept losing races to questionable plays. AQ v 55, 22 v AJ and 88 v KT.

Out when 3-bet shipping TT into QQ.

well. Good luck to the two left.

Hand 1: Nothing odd about the flop call. You are representing a very strong hand and I don"t really want to go broke here. On the other hand, I very strongly suspect (correctly) that you are making one of your bluff raises. I don"t want to turn it into a huge hand. You may like to play gamble hands - reraising to 1500 on the flop means you have put over 2000 chips in with junk. You would have been saying goodbye to them if you didn"t suck out. Who misplayed the hand? BTW, the raise pre was from 250 to 600.

Hand 2:
Open-shoved with AJs for 10-11 BB. You said you were calling cos 79 is Todd"s favourite hand.
