One in the eye for ya...wd Phil

Ok here on SKY poker they have been running a kind of tournement to find the best player to send to Vegas for WSOP...

So they have had preliminary rounds,qualifiers,and so on but basically it was down to (each team has a mentor and there are three mentors.) 3 Players per team.....last week was nailbiting stuff as the 6 from each team was whittled down to 3....anyway this week they have had three Sn G 6 man tourneys to find the best players.....

Sky Poker Live Event

Ok so Last Sunday (Yesterday) the Sky Poker Tour Live Event at G-Casino Luton was battled out amongst the top players on the site.....

Myself i was there and sat at seat1 table 11......

Where to begin, started out swimmingly...called a preflop raise with JJ flop came J spades 8 spades 5 hearts....

pot was 800 am in first position and i thought put a little bet in..(man on end had called everyhand...) but both folded...

so thought id missed a spot then and thought maybe i should have checked....

Call or Fold 45 man mtt sng 3 players left

ok picture the scene

45 man MTT SNG 3 players left.....

me 19500
seat 2 31000
seat 3 17000

Blinds at 1000/2000
you are in BB with 55 hole cards

2 folds
3 pushes all in.....for the 4th time in a row on your BB

now i know i should have probably folded......but how many times can you let him get away with it...and this time i have him covered,any subsequent call if i fold will make me at risk.....

now i think for a while....

decide that he probably has a pile of old rubbish...and call

looking back at it i think it was wrong...

10 players left blinds at silly...

hi all, another one for ya...

ok so we playing the velocity tournement,(kind of super turbo blinds go up every 5 mins)

there are 10 left
