I only arrived Sunday evening to be greeted by the usual socialstate that Robo is in on events like this. After indulging him with small talk, in whatever language he was trying to speak in I found th...

folding is just wrong here.....what are you waiting for ?? Agree with reg here and his reasons, shoving is the correct move. If you want to be cautious, you could limp, but can't see that being gre...

I see this clashes with England's opener in the World Cup against USA.

Are you sticking with the date? Asking out of pure selfish reasons.

Has he got a hangover?

Also if you are bored you could ask him if Queen, Ten of Diamonds is a good calling hand ?

Seeing as Chris isn't going, I might be able to make it now :D . My "schedule" has changed once more and I beleive I will be free from about 10:30 on Sat morning. I also have transport if ne...

Another Bad Beat Daz, don't worry about it ~ you did the right thing and can't change anything. I know that's no consolation, but hey-ho I heard you made up for it with a small drinking session. :twis...

Yeh, I could have played the Aces differently pre-flop. But I felt this time that there was more value playing it this way, even if a bit riskier, sometimes I would raise. I was kind of expecting a ra...

Had a big decision on Saturday at Blackpool in their monthly £100 deepstack. Even had the clock called on me I took that long over it. I folded in the end, but I now think the call was the right mov...

I am real sorry and dissapointed, but I don't think I am going to be able to make this as I have something come up on that w/end. Hope it goes real well though.

The answer is YES. You would struggle to really benefit from the added value in live seats, although I am sure we could buy the seat from you. It is very much a numbers game for this, so if you can ...

Think it is 2pm start, maybe extending to two days depending on numbers. Actual structure hasn't been confirmed yet Callum, but believe it is 15k chips on a 45 min clock. Be no good for a young "...

Sorry Paul, didn't bother in the end, didn't think anyone was going.

I think they have put a very ambitious schedule together. All good ideas, will see if it is not a bit too much as the season progresses. Personally: ~ love the idea of diff. games at the live events...

Update: 20.00pm - DAZ HAS GONE!!! Daz's AA busted by KK. All money in pre-flop over £200k pot. Well played though I say and sure to impress Boyles. Waiting on confirmation of actual finishing posito...

I applied for this about a week ago, but not heard anything yet. Have you Paul ??

More Chips and earlier break. Your learning, nice improvements.

Robbiebox = JPSBOX

That's a a shame Callum. Hopefully another time. Glad to see you got yourself a seat Bully, who with ? Team will be confirmed in the new year as Rigger and John Richardson have to check schedule/dia...

Have sent ID and got a reply saying it was illegable almost instantly, sent a high res copy this morning when I got to work and have waited all day for a reply, just out of interest has anyone here m...

Well offline for 10 days , but back now and have completed 500 games of these. They are incredibly quick and the bad beats and variance is enormous, however I have stuck with them and just beginning t...

OK Guys, Paul has asked me to judge this. And as you can see from the photo I am a model ( for balaclavas ). 3rd place Dude72 ~ "To call this raise, you must have cajones THIS BIG!" 2nd ...

Be rude not to reply Ken, when the thread is dedicated to me 8) . I for sure love the idea of a 'Cumbria Championships' and will be playing, please use that title as it sounds great to say you are Co...

I will pipe in here that I am not in favour of a leaderboard, that just records top 50% of results. IMO to get a true reflection then all results should be included and the number of games played to b...

Lots of action on this thread, I got the ball rolling for sure. However everyones opinions hasn't made it any clearer to me, in fact it goes to show how hard it is to get right and whether it would ...

But perhaps you need to get out a bit more my friend! (lol) Very True :cry: Hence me replying to you straight away I am sure that this is fine but all seems a little complicated to me and possi...

An idea that seems to be gathering momentum is a Poker Rankings list for Local players. Not an easy thing to get right, but here are my rushed suggestions ( feel free to add your own opinions). Railw...

I'll have a bash at these Liam just to see what they are like. Probably micro stakes though.

You have to post again this time next week, whatever the results, see how you've been doing ?

actually just re-read incident 2 and not quite so clear post my answer later. Off to Railway now.

Hi Ben, 2 good rule questions. I think I know the correct answer to both these. 1. The hand is live, although more than one card has been exposed, action has taken place and so the hand can not be de...

Yeh I was on about a seperate event , A Cumbria Poker Championships for individuals. Say a £100 deepstack over 2 days type thing. We had a 2 dayer here in Dalton last w/end as a finale to our tour a...

It would be really good to have a Cumbrian Championships Individual event somewhere. Just an idea and I'm sure you are the sort of guy that could do it. :lol: I'm sure we could send many players to ...

You got the chips and clock for this one Ken ?? Its like a Cumbrian Championships. Would be great if you can get all regions putting in a side and holding it as a County Championships with Trophy and...

The Poker Tour of Furness had 4 players playing this w/end at the B'pool Gukpt event and of those 4, two managed to make the final table of their events. So congrats to Wayne Moffatt who came 8th for...

Top 3 in leaderboard won £275 GUKPT seats (1st) and £110 GUKPT seats (2nd & 3rd) Same for the Grand Final winners who won cash plus the above seats as well. All Prize money was returned as pri...

Fantastic ability to fold there , don't think I could. Is it the right thing to do ?? You are getting 2:1, so hard to say as Aces are a very likely holding here, although I don't know how you can rule...

News not the best. Salmon and HoneyM went early yesterday. I have just gone and Daz is low. Sneaks just above average. Guiness factory visited and Salmon is prepared to show Dublin what has arrived. ...

Any chance you can post the prize breakdown please Jon? OK, but not straight forward. For less than 50 players: Name Award 1st Place + £275 GUKPT SEAT 31.00% 2nd Place + £110 GUKPT SEAT 21.0...

The Final will have a 6,000 chip double chance structure on a 25 min clock throughout. I have altered the blinds to allow more play in the middle levels. Day 1 will stop at the end of 300/600 level an...

they have just release another 100 seats for each day, so no excuse now Paul.

Was really intending to go to this one but with a new baby due, I am restricted to Barrow and Dalton games only lol.. PUSSY !! We are going Saturday morning and coming back Sunday night......ea...

Good turnout for the first tour game, with 69 players stumping up the £25 entry fee( thats right Paul....exactly 69 and I can almost smell a lovely bottle of red ) . Great atmosphere in the room as F...

Unlucky mate.

Enjoy the rest of your time there!

Pics of Pokerstars buying you beers or you buying pretty girls beers!!!!

Good Luck Pal, and dont forget updates with pics !

Hi Masida, congrats on the first place in the league. However I do think you and the other top 5 have been "done". In my opinion the whole prizepool should have been shared between you 5, e...
