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....

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.....

First of all , i must apologize for a bit of deception,i have had a hidden agenda for the last three months...There has been a lot of speculation about online poker,and i have had my own suspicions....but i wanted to find out once and for all if any outside factors could influence the game experience...

so we sit down again,and u ask why,well i did originally want to prove that these off sites run by major uk companies are fair and true to the game...

but obviously i cant,as outdraw after outdraw continues...to be fair i played 4 games this morning at 5DYM , have gone down to these as i have no real reason to play anything else ,it just fks you over,anything where there is any real money,is either won by some nobody who has never played on the site b4,or mysterious players that seem to miraclulously take every regular out...

if you are trying to say that this is a fair game,then that is ridiculous...

there is no way on earth these outdraws can happen, continuosly,over such a long period of time...

everytime they are all in with a dominated hand...they pull miracles...

it is just not right...

today we played HU omaha and had him all in 5 times with less than 10% draw...

and he won every one...

i mean come off it...5 times in a row...
there is no way on earth that this can happen , i have sat down ,and dealt cards in the real world and u know what ...he lost every one

ok where to start.....

have been really battling the tables today....

and it started off.....badly.....
DYM s killing me at times....

but after about 5 hrs play....

things started to happen....

and this afternoon ,i won the sunday special....and tonight i won the 800 bounty hunter.....

so in all have put a very profitable days work....

am starting to realize that maybe the tables can be kind......

but at least it shows that perseverance is the key.....

for a change today.....we have lost all three tournements to 1 and 2 card outs

AJ v JJ on a flop of A 6 4 he pushes all in on flop

i call...turn is J ....

jj v 10 10

he pushes all in b4 flop

i call.. flop is q q 10.....turn is 8 river is 2

and then....

A hearts J diamonds......V K clubs 7 clubs.....
flop is J hearts,5 hearts,8 hearts. he goes all in...i call......turn is 10 diamonds river is K diamonds...

so thats 3 out of 3 with a 1 card out......10% of the time?

really......

made it to last 15 of open last night.....(500 runners i think)

and had some awful cards for about 5 rounds of blinds........(30 hands)

left with three bb got raised all in by sb......looked at my j8 thouhgt i need to make a stand....called he showed k7 and no j or 8 on board.......

i dont think this was a great play...but there does come a time where you have to get busy...or u aint getting anywhere......i would be interested in peoples comments for the worst hand you would call sb raise with 2 or 3 bb s left.....

ok ,sat down today,and you know played a little,had some interesting hands,involving 2 s ,you know they have one and they hit 2 on the flop.....played quite a few dym s.......think i made a small profit.......but nothing really terrible to moan about....

so onwards we go....perserverance...thats what they say....

so we played a bit this morning and funnily enough it was awful

some good ones i have 7 hearts 10 hearts flop 7 diamonds,7 spades,3 clubs...

i bet 100 he calls

turn is 5 diamonds

i go all in
he calls

river is 2 diamonds

he shows k diamonds 6 diamonds.....runner runner flush......nice just VARIANCE

AA v KQ

flop A10 5 turn is 2 river is J

35 flop 336 turn 5

river 9

he shows 99

nice another 2 carder on the river....how many times do we see that ...more than 1 in 20 i think....
