Watching the IRB 7's where Wales get beaten by Spain and France get beaten by Zimbabwe. NZ v SA should show a wee improvement in the watching stakes. At its best it is a good game to watch..

There is a post kicking round this forum re getting outdrawn on a regular basis on some skins. In the G last night AA was cracked 3 times when all in pre as far as I remember - I was at the receiving end of one of them. Variance is a biatch. But is on line poker rigged I don"t think so.

Let"s keep the debate going though. There is no better indicator of mindset than that which is given when someone says, "I don"t like playing online, it"s all rigged isn"t it"

Did you hang on to some G chips to bring back to Stockton big man?

Chopped the aquarium - was huge chip leader and lost three handed KK with a K on the flop to a rivered flush - and 44 v A7 all in pre - so the chop was good I think as my run good had dried up.

OK so I know Man City won when they hit the one outer on the river. I know that Man Utd supporters must be gutted. But what I don't get is the vitriol from supporters of other teams directed against Man Utd. Please look after your own team's performance, it seems wrong to me. But then what do I know..

Good point Boss. It is purely bad sportsmanship.

On another note, NewBrighton, any piccies. When will your next visit be and what sort of start/finish times are we looking at?

Thanks Maaaan :)

Maybe in a couple of weeks - it was to start at 7pm it did start at 7.30. They chopped 6 handed at about 1pm I think (I wasn"t involved  ;D )

28 runners in a £20 tournament and they chopped 6 ways?

Portugal in November and Vegas at Christmas.

Was aiming for Vegas in November as usual but with Portugal arriving on the scene and the fact that my good friend Paulie will be in Vegas over Xmas/New year I have opted for Vegas in December.

I would have a problem spending 2 weeks away from work during the festive period. But working on one week, departing 20/12/12 returning 27/12/12. This would seem to be a given (with the option of a further week if I can swing it).
