Marek76 reacted to avongirl in Punters Lounge Exclusive £150 added Poker League PokerStars - November Leg 4 - Wed 28th November
We're back with the Punters Lounge £150 added Poker League for November. All games are played in the PokerStars Home Games PL Poker Club. We are including a PLO leg in alternate months so this month Leg 3 will be PLO.
Leg 1 : Wednesday 7th November at 20.00 GMT in the PL Poker Club Home Game.
Leg 2 : 14th November
Leg 3 : 21st November - PLO leg
Leg 4 : 28th November
Buy in is $5.50 per leg.
The £150 added will be split between the top 3 players of the league end, with £75 to the league champion, £45 to 2nd and £30 to 3rd. This will be payable via PayPal at the end of the league. Big thank you to SirPuntalot and Punters Lounge for the added funds. Winners will also get an exclusive PuntersLounge Mug and Pen
Your top 3 scores of the 4 legs will count towards your league total. We will be using the usual PL league format, which will be updated in this post. (The PokerStars own league scores will not be used.) Formula is -Log(position/Entrants)x100
All members are welcome, however you must post in this thread if asked to let us know your forum username, otherwise your placings and scores cannot be included in the league. Please spread the word and invite your friends so we can get the weekly numbers to keep this league viable. New players always welcome to join in.

That was fun, but I wish I hadn't played and just bought a lottery ticket instead!

Thanks to everyone who played this month. Let's keep up the good numbers.
Fun week next week and we'll be back with a new league on 7th Nov.

Also, as this is a 5-week month, we have the chance of an extra non-league fun tournament this coming Wednesday, 31st October.
Please let us know in this thread what you would like to do, options are:
A regular No-Limit Holdem tournament. A variant tournament of your choice (PLO, Hi/Low, Stud, Badugi, Triple-Draw etc.) A knock-out format? Not actually sure whether this is possible within PokerStars-Home games? No tournament, a rest week. Any tournament played would still have the usual payouts, but just wouldn't count towards the league.
Let us know in this thread your preferred & 2nd choices a.s.a.p. so we can get it set up in good time ready for Wednesday.

Well done to thebestthere on the final leg win
However the top 3 kept their grip on the overall podium, although with some shuffling around. Well done to Marek on the league crown again, with Andy leapfrogging over Ian in 2nd and 3rd places.

Thank you to everyone who played this month. Regarding the PLO leg, I'm inclined to run this in alternate months, so we'll revert to all NLHE for October league and run a PLO leg again in Nov.

Well done Marek, winning the PLO
Top 3 very close together but by no means safe on the podium. It's back to NLHE for the deciding leg.

That's opened it up a bit! Well done to Andy on winning leg 2
We'll continue with our PLO experiment as no strong views expressed and so far numbers have been maintained. Leg 3 set up as PLO with 5000 chips as previously

Bottom 2 last week become top 2 this week (Bottom 4 to top 3 even). Gotta love the variance train, choo choo!
No doubting who was in the drivers seat, stoking the coals, changing points to max town this week (don't worry, the puns will run out soon, honest they will).
Well played Andy, played it right down the line (it's an illness I tannoy you not, I'm trying to halt !), the signals were there from departure, fares fare, he conducted himself impeccably to a hugely well deserved win.
Wagons roll for the next 2 games. < End of the line!

So it's been about 6 weeks since this thread came into existence , and I've not really updated this as much as I first expected which is probably actually a good thing as I means there has been no roller-coaster of ups & downs to report which at this moment in time the key focus needs to be avoiding the pitfalls of another insane irrational experience.
Poker wise , I've been focusing solely on playing my backed stake on Pokerstars (mostly $5.50 & under) and tuning my brain into playing my best game possible which can sometimes be hard to gauge when playing MTTs with 1000's of runners as the variance is just so crazy even for winning players.
I did mention in an earlier post that I wasn't going to be making any big purchases in the near future or going on holiday , but I decided that an investment in a reasonable desktop computer was of use if I really wanted to build up my ability to play poker for hopefully a second income because playing more than 4 tables on a laptop is not ideal , and playing across several sites at the same time is not really feasible if want to see the action on every table.
So I see this as much like my purchase of a bike as a total net positive , with the bike I save £60 a month on a bus pass to get to work without even including the late shifts i'd need to pay for a taxi plus I get the health benefits of riding about 8 miles 5 days a week so in like 3 months the investment will be like financial net positive , likewise the desktop computer encourages me to sit up in a better posture and therefore better than lazying on the couch with a laptop health wise and always it has to be better for my poker game if I can see all the action that is taking place.
See as many of you as possible in the home game on Wednesday

Marek76 reacted to avongirl in Punters Lounge Exclusive £150 added Poker League PokerStars - August Leg 4 - Weds 29th August
Just to make you all aware, I always post a reminder on our Facebook group on Tuesday night/Wednesday morning. This is normally seen by around 40 members. Last week's was only seen by 11. I'm not sure if this is why numbers were down in the game last week.
I've heard that the Facebook algorithm will limit views in people's newsfeed if predominantly one person posts in a group, therefore if some other members would post occasionally it would be appreciated. Let us know about any good value games or just what you're playing, and it should show FB that we are an active group.
