totally blew this hand. I was tempted to shove the bb flat, then thought better of it as I thought he had big hand, then when he shoved that flop I tank folded thinking he definitely had a massive hand. I just can't work these guys out sometimes. Big missed opportunity sorry:

hey man been following ur progress with interest.
i definitely feell u are close to a big score.
couple of observations i think u play a little too tight from what i have seen.
also in the 4.4 about ten mins ago u shoved 40+ bbs. what did u have. i see this as a mistake with any hand.
just my thoughts. best of luck

You're playing really well, keep the positive mental attitude up and the results will follow. Only hand of question is 88 one where he overshipped the flop. I'd prob just ship in pre because people at lowstakes overcall with so much crap its generally +EV.

Keep playing solid though, not going bust with AK at these levels is big brag.

Also I have run it by chilin_dude to offer up pieces for the SCOOP ME (LOW) $109 tourney.

He is fine with me offering up shares outside of this agreement.

chiling_dude is taking 50%. I am taking 10%.

Other investors from previous stakes have reserved as follows:

chilin_dude - 50% - BOOKED
mrmagoo777 - 10% - BOOKED
sect7g - 10% - BOOKED
_steven levitt_ - 10%
vip sml - 5%
broken_jia - 5%

So far it is all sold out pending confirmation of reserves/sending of funds.

If any %'s become available I will offer them up here.

Big risk in this tourney being a 1 shot punt so I thank you guys once again for showing faith. I hope to repay that faith in kind.

I will need the funds sent by say May 16th 5am ET - that gives me 12 hours before the event to make sure I have it all organised then sleep and get up at 6am my time to register and be ready to play at 7am my time (monday morning).

So:

5% = $5.45
10% = $10.90
20% = $21.80
50% = $54.50

Only taking funds on PokerStars (sorry _S L_!) to: MrMagoo777 (Dundas)

yeah I think you are right - didn't think it was 40bb's but i will check it now - but anyway it was AKo - just sometimes I make a weird play like that to develop an image and if I am called I am rarely dominated

probably a dumb side effect from playing $1 and $2's where people call of their stacks ridic light

so I take your comments with pleasure cause I need to adjust obv.

lol - it was 50 - yeah that was pretty dumb - there was 250 in pot and 4 limpers in front and I was BB - ppl don't always respect that shove and may call light?

i play tight early - that's my game - prolly won't change that much - i like it till blinds are worth it - that's just me anyway

yeah I know I fk'd that hand badly

I agree with you 100%.

Gave him way too much credit and lost my way.

im no expert myself so dont worry.
if u say u are generally tight at start then its perfect to open up and play certain hands providing position and stack sizes are good.just a thought anyway. good luck with rest of the day.
im in ireland its 3am here gotta sleep

thanks man - take care and sleep well

i have irish heritage so I like you guys!!

and dude I shove Q4s earlier!! that's not tight!!

shipped over money for scoop now

one to keep the irish boy happy:
