Both me and Rex didnt give Sykes credit for a real hand, thus we were both eliminated, so for me he deserved the win. That said, the standard of Omaha wasn' bad at all. I kinda wish I hadnt made that last call, but I hope that I've shown I'm not awful at Omaha. Its a game I have been playing a fair bit so maybe I'm better than I was.

Wish I could do the Main Event though.

I knew he had to have a hand but if he had a straight and flush draw I was still 60% and had lots committed. A gamble I am willing to take 3 handed.

Yeah the HU went on ages. 3 handed was a while as well tbh. At first the structure seemed real fast but it did slow. We did adjust to min raises though. Good event though and I think most enjoyed it. Grats again Nova.

Thanks man. I definitely enjoyed it, but I never want to make a really bad play against someone, so sorry about that. I guess I need to learn a little more about Omaha, particularly when it gets down to the last few, although I played ok early doors. Are we going to have some sort of visual bracelet thing for the winners?

Well done Nova, I quite enjoyed that and I'll definitely try and get some more games of Omaha in. I was a little disappointed to of gone out in 7th as that really hurt my chances of PotY, hopefully I'll have a better showing at the Main Event.

I knocked together a quick trailer for the Main Event:

(it's not very good but I'll blame that on Movie Maker rather than my trailer making skills :shifty:

)

That's pretty good.

We should get Green Gecko to stick up one of the GR poker banners that were made before it all started.

Yeah. I've PM'd GG about it.

Edit: Apparently someone's already requested it and the princess was in another castle.

That would be me 8-)

Registered for the ME.

It should be a great game tonight.

I can setup private tournaments now but I couldn't see any option to create a freeroll so I will have to email Stars and find how you do that. Is next Sunday at 7:30pm okay with everyone?

Yeah good for me :mrgreen:

My mate has pulled out of pub poker tonight and I can't be bothered to go alone so I might be able to make this

. It's great news for you lot as I have only really just started playing competitively and I suck, so it'll be an extra $10 in the kitty.

Wait, it's this Sunday, right? I have no idea when this is happening.

You mean lolchester, of course. Can someone PM it to me? I haven't gotten it yet. Is Luwinski playing Ad?

Check your PM's.

Not sure. He's saying it's a lot of money and wants to spend it on his gf's present. Might try and convince him that if he wins it it's more money to spend on her.

WHOSE RESPONSIBLE THIS?

Cheers GreenGecko for changing the logo
