Posted by bullettooth1: wow great game that last one. back and forth quite alot. i was scared u had the j that last hand. well played. i enjoyed that.
Thanks, me too.
I fully expected my 2 pair to be good there...
I did feel you bluffed at some of the bigger pots on the river, but I couldn't call with just Q-high, and did not feel an all-in would have gotten you away from anything less than a pair.

What weaknesses did you spot (so I can learn)?
i cant discuss my game. dont want anyone getting any tips lol your game tho......hmmm. i cant think of a way you played bad. perhaps you should be a bit more aggressive, i guess if you thought i bluffed at some rivers then maybe you should bet the flop and turn more to get more info.
thats the only thing i can think of. im not a hu player so wouldnt really know. sorry

Thanks for that.
@retribution: Thanks for taking this initiative. It was truly the most fun I had playing poker since I first started almost 2 years ago (even just after having lost).
My only regret is that it's over so soon, and that I only got to play 2 people. Maybe a league system for the first round(s) would fix that?
I hope I'll get a place for the next tournament...

retribution , when can we play the second round ???
------------
Posted by retribution: Updated OP, Hey Alex, when's a good time for us to play our matches? I'm pretty flexible, but usually around 6:00 GMT is best for me.
6:00 Gmt ? or 18:00 Gmt , cause 6:00 it's about 3 am for me , my time is Gmt time + 3 , can probably play 6:00 Gmt, but only tommorow when I come home.

Posted by sadamman: Retribution, I know it doesn't make much difference, but me vs fakiry was 2:1, don't want people getting the impression it was easy for him.
The last game took only 11 minutes, but first was 46 and the second was 53 minutes, no piece of cake. You play very well, i just had that little thing that was enough to give me what i need.
You guys really like to joke with my nick, always remembering the Fakiry two times, either with two "i" or, as now, with two "ki"! Hope hope you can joke a bit longer, it will mean i am still on the race.

Haha, sorry about that. I'll fix it, I was likely tired/distracted when I did the updates. I think I've screwed up a few peoples names, and if I did, I apologize.
Alex, we can play pretty much ANY time, so if you're gmt +3, I'm good from 21:00GMT on.

I was wondering that myself. Come on people, let's get smack talking already
Seriously though, let's try and get the 2nd round finished.
I likely won't be able to play until wednesday, grandma just had a minor stroke, so shits been kinda crazy for me the last few days. Will be out of town until then, but we can work out a time to play. Hoping 2k stacks, 5 min blinds are okay. I'm hoping we can play all 3 matches at once, just to get them over with.
