poker12

we've definitely played a few times

Sorry I tilt-chatted at you once or twice!

I feel like I apologize for my chat a lot, lol. Thank God Global accepted my request to ban my chat. A more welcoming environment is what we're going for 'round here.

Ah.. Poker12 of course.. no offensive tilt-chatter that I can remember but I'm not to thinned skin either so no worries if you have. I have much respect for your game. Especially your sit and go skills! Sngs.. a big part of my bankroll management was to use SNGs to keep my bankroll afloat while I grinded Mtts however not working so well for me on global at least for the last few months. To the point I have pretty much stopped playing SNGs. I have always been successful at $20 SNGs up until around Oct when I started dabbling in 50 and $100 games. I was not liking the outcome so I move back to the $20 but it has been a disaster so I have simply stopped playing them for now.
Anyway.. glad to see you are doing so well and hope to see you at more Mtt final tables soon.

Global poker reps do you see the bolded parts about the sngs? When did you change the structures and add/eliminate games? I bet SitandSpin remembers as do I, I've posted about it, add the Wiz of people who have "noticed" and stopped playing them

16 left today... get QQ in for 30 bb each vs AK and AT for the tourney chip lead. AT scoops and busts me. Has 15k CL with 15 left and doesn't cash.

Meanwhile I take 14th of 933 in the Bonzai $0.11. Yawn.

I won the Sunday $110 today, but of course they dropped the Guarantee from $10K down to $6K. Still, it was over $1.9K for 1st.
12-24-2017 , 10:54 PM
And it's going to keep dropping.

Think it's just because of the holidays? That's what I was thinking (hoping).

Yeah that could be.

I am just fine with you not stepping up your game. I am never thrilled to see your screen name pop up at my tourney table.

If you let me have 2nd place in everything, I am willing to let you and poker12 trade 1st and 3rd place each time. I don't mind, I am not greedy

Who's the most trustworthy bro around?

I'd love to escrow last-longer bets with you guys, fun and adds a new element. Maybe we can get David Sklansky or someone to come up in here.

I'd be down for a little prop bet action during the promotion. Let's get a few people together and see what we can come up with.

Poker12, WizofAz, hhella tight, @chips, tdubz and whoever else is good. Lets try to come up with some type of side bet for who places highest in the grizzly games. I'd even be down for weekly competitions instead of just who ends highest.

Just won my first ever MTT on Global in the 6AM $2.20 1R1A. $35.10 isn't the big bucks you guys talk about here, but for me as a total fish it was quite a thrill to actually win a tourney. (Simple pleasures for simple minds, I suppose.)

Good Luck At Future Tables !!

Lag, bro, nice win! Haven't heard from you in a while so its good to see you taking one down. See you at the tables, and GL out there.

Congratulations!

I still remember my first tourney win very fondly (not on GP obv).

An awesome moment, well done and now let's win number 2!
01-04-2018 , 06:35 PM
Thanks for the kind words guys. Ultra-nits like me don't win tourney's very often, so it will probably be a long while before I take down another one. (Then again, maybe I'll take down the 9PM Bonanza tonite )
