For Leg 1 the team had 21 registrants.  I am sure that we can approach (if not exceed) that number for tomorrow"s tourney.  An updated list will be published closer to the end of registration.

One piece of tactical advice to consider please:
Whilst this is an individual event, it is also a Team event.  Each individual"s contribution is vital to the Team"s chances of qualifying for the final event.  Therefore please use a modicum of judgement when you are actively participating in hands (of dubious strength) against fellow team mates.  Having said that, obvious soft play is unacceptable. 

Good luck to all Team participants.

You will probably be without my services tonight. I was unsure about whether to play or not, but since switching my broadband to Talktalk on thursday, I"ve been unable to use Ipoker.

[antthecat]

i read that u are having problems with your broadband service, you will be missed.

I hope I"m not speaking too soon, but my connection seems to be working at the moment. I"m going to leave this until the last minute, but I may yet turn up after all.

connection Ok at the mo. Lets keep everything crossed it stays that way

Shouldn"t have bothered really. Nothing at all for the first hour, then with blinds at 75/150, shoved 1800 from mid position with QJ off and got called by the button with AK off. Flop comes Queen high, jack on the turn and I must be psychic because I knew that the river was going to be a ten. I think I"ve just remembered why I prefer playing cash games!

[rubertoe]

That is me out

KK vs JJ vs AJ all in pre - i had the kings in the big blind - AJ rasied (UTG +1) to 1400 - blinds 200/400 - MP Pushes for 3.1k - I shove over the top for 5.5k total - Kaysing who isnt in the hand says "Call go ftw" (which i think is a bit out of order and i will be bringing this up) and UTG +1 calls and he just has me covered!!

Flop xxA Turn J River x - i am out!

Good luck to all left!!

Positions of those out before 2nd Break

Richard has lost his internet connection at the moment but as Capt he was able to rail most of the tournament until the final table. 

Well played all as a team we didn"t seem to get much luck this week - getting out drawn in most hands. Well played to Shakeyshark (Shaun) unlucky in 11th place. Only move you could make with that hand (pair66s). With Boston calling with the A 10 you were slightly ahead and we were keeping ours fingers crossed, unfortunately he didn"t seem to be missing much and flopping a straight was about average for him tonight. Just outside the points... well played

North London had the best turnout and hopefully our luck will change in two weeks.

See you at the tables

Richard and Linda

rubertoe, i was holding aq as you busted so i was about to shove also, i was out a few hands later with 9"s and walked into kings, the blinds were getting high
