If maniacs want to shove in with anything and juice up the prize pool for an hour thats fine by me


It is fine if you dont get sucked out on.. but if you do 3 / 4 times and your pockets aint that deep then its goodnight for you..

Works both ways though - you sit and wait for a premium hand in the knowledge that you"re guaranteed action, but then your all in open raise with AA gets six callers!!  

Cheap rebuys are just a freak version of poker, but they certainly don"t represent poker in the purest sense!  I prefer double chance freezouts, and steer clear of rebuys.

This is true, double chance freezeouts and limited rebuy, rebuys  represent a different type of skill set, but I think unlimited rebuy tournaments should be left to the poker tourists and the gamblers.

i was just wondering how many seats are still available, if any, for the Scottish Amatuer Poker Championship in Edinburgh on May 3rd and if i would be eligible to play in the tournament having missed the regional qualifiers for the event? If so, how i would go about buying a ticket for the event? i know it is £75.00 for the ticket, but who would i pay or am i too late?

The re buy on the friday is £10.You only get 500 chips and re buys are for 2 hours i think.Its very loose and not my cup of tea,saying that there should be good numbers with the apat event the next day and a good prize pool.


Not your cup of tea  ;D

Its right up your street Mickey, suits your playing style perfectly  ;D ;D ;D ;D
I"m deeply offended by your statemant Duke.My game is cultured,well thought through and mathematically sound.












For at least the first 10 minutes.Then i throw the chips in and hope to get lucky. ;)

How can you wait for a premium hand with only 500chips to start with?

I"ll be up there on the Friday night, but if that is seriously the tourney I wont be playing.

Any apat"er fancy meeting up for a few sng"s amongst ourselves in a hotel or something I"m up for that.

;D

What sort of cash games are usually offered at the casino (I am assuming that I"m not going to run well in the main event ;D)?

Also, who"s going to be around on Sunday evening?

Last year I got suckered into a 6 card Omaha cash game -- still emotionally scarred -- lol

Unfortunately travelling back with the trophy on Sunday  ;D ;D ;D
