Re: VC/Maxim King of Poker 2006

Re: VC/Maxim King of Poker 2006 Right. Enough songs (unless anyone wants to join me in a chorus of 'Glory Glory Tottenham Hotspur'). Here is the table. Well done to NUFC, who despite my kiss of death yesterday has qualified assuming the 300 point per tourney average. Dot aint far behind!

To the tune of 'Those Were The Days' by Mary Hopkins Those were the days, my friend We thought they'd never end Before we started playing Maxim KOP We'd play the cards we'd choose And to numpties never lose And we didn't have to slow play

Well, between me and Ronay, looks like we could come up with a whole new version!!. And Spurred on by this (no pun intended) I now have a ditty lined up for qualification, but doubt many of you would be able to remember the tune, as it is to the tune of Ossie's Dream (Spurs' 1981 FA Cup Final song!!) :drums :drums

Re: VC/Maxim King of Poker 2006 I got a massive 25 points from this afternoons game (as a disconnect). I must have been on a table with only one live player. :eyes And seeing that Dotster was 25th, netting him 231 points, he is now top of the leaderboard by 100 points. Congratulations Dot, you have played very well, and I knew it was only a matter of time until you would take 1st place. If only I could have played the afternoon games properly - not just quickly logging in if the opportunity arose at work, then seeing my blinds being robbed at a rate of knots, and going all-in on a reasonably good hand (and losing, as yesterday, hence the 14 point score :lol). The pressure's off now... time to play proper poker... look out all the constant raise/all-in gits who have made life hell for us regulars. :@

Re: VC/Maxim King of Poker 2006 Started on a table with 2 of the aformentioned gits, 'Mr2Gts' (he went all-in on the first hand! :eyes) and 'ben637', and 6 disconnects. I soon got tired of their frequent all-ins and raises, so I went all-in on 2 pair K's & Q's, and got busted by a straight! :@ 53 points in total for today! :nana I'm sooooo glad it's the last week....

Re: VC/Maxim King of Poker 2006

Please Please play like this in london haha
Well, thats the thing Morl, I may not even go to the final (by choice*). Unless there's a decent reward for everyone attending, I'll most likely decline the invite. None of my mates want to go as a guest, and having to take 2 days holiday off work, and pay train/hotel etc. isn't worth it for me. I'm under no illusion that I would have any chance of winning it. I knew that I would most likely not attend quite a while ago, I've only kept playing because I was top of the leaderboard, and wanted to try and win a prize on a Monday. Going to the final has never been a huge motivational factor for me, I just (mostly) enjoyed playing the poker, and having friendly chat/banter with you guys. There's not a lot else to do on cold dark winter nights anyway! :lol It could turn out good for you Morl, 11th place could be enough! :ok 3 weeks until the grand final... no 'official' date for the final... no announced venue... no leaderboard update... no confirmation of players who have already qualified. It's about as organised as last year's event then I'm afraid. And trying to play poker in a hot nightclub with booming music? I hope those attending don't have a repeat of that playing environment. :eyes *I reserve the right to change my mind at anytime though... ;)

To say im shocked is an understatement..... however, i understand your frustration, and as a 2nd yr maxim player like yourself i agree the running of this tourney is an absolute shambles yet again Obviously id love a place in the grand final, but id also love to see the people who deserve a place actually turn up. Your a cracking player Steve, and you should be there! I know the cost, time off work, shambollic organisation puts a dampener on things, but you gotta finish what you started m8, howay the lads!!

Qualified for this week :) Id love to be in the London final, but it would seem unlikely... A few points: 1) Last yearrs was better for times - 4pm and 8pm (or 9pm at one point) - much more fun. I cant play at 2pm which sucks for the table (currently 66th ish and would have been better had I been able to play the 2pm's). 2) Poker has taken off big time since then so harder this year (and a lot more entries!). 3) Who is in London from the monthly draws and the action points/money play? Where is the damn list?? I want answers!!! 4) DC's should not be allowed - or like the Coral web site (I think) only allow to join tourny 1 hour before. Just my 2p's worth... been a long week!! :gimme
