DJKQ and others interested


This is a thread from 2+2 about 20 year old who went to Vegas and started posting about his poker and other stories - the bloke is a fantastic writer and very good and improving poker player whose gone from $1/$2 games to playing with well known pros in about 2 years..... it's really good on learning about advanced live poker skills too, although you have to know the basics and language


....a poker story from 2+2 - really good read and well written

Mick, can I remind you that "if you don't know who the sucker is at the poker table after 20 minutes, it's you" :))

Not sure but apparently Quids went all-in with Mr Bones the Butcher but as Mr Ben can be any character it was a split pot.

We played No Limit HE


we had a ?10(or?5?) Turbo Tournament winner takes all for the firs hour or so. Then the 'Main Event' was a ?30 buy in with Rebuys for the first hour (some of us didn't need it others needed a couple *cough MR Ben) and a ?20 add on available after an hour that everyone took. Having a pro-dealer just keeps the pace going nicely no way could we have done that self-dealing etc.

Final table of the WSOP main event (effectively the world championship) is down to final 3 from original 6500, a mate of mine who I play a cash game with in Ireland and is a pro,has 10% of Jake? Who is one of the three- that's a minimum of ?200k for my mate right there. He's flown out to Vegas rail him!

    • He seemed to me to be fully immersed in the Jeremy Corbyn ethos of the Labour Party. I dint think that (and self describing as a Marxist) would have helped much when Labour was changed under Starmer. There was a purge of people as far left as him that he was lucky to survive once in my opinion.
    • I perceive the problem.simply as spending too much without first shoring up the economy.  If the government had reduced borrowing,  and as much as most hate the idea, reduced government deiartment spending (so called austerity) and not bowed to union pressures for pay rises, then encouraged businesses to grow, extra cash would have entered the coffers and at a later stage when the economy was in a stronger position rises in NI or taxes would have a lesser impact, but instead Reeves turned that on its head by increasing ni which has killed growth, increased prices and shimmied the economy.  What's worse is that the perceived 20 billion black hole has increased to 30 billion in a year. Is there a risk that after 5 years it could be as high as 70 billion ???     
    • That petition is bananas.   If you want a youth centre there pay the landlord the same rent a Londis would and build it yourself or shut the f**k up to be honest. Wasting our MPs time with this trivial nonsense is appalling. If your kids are still out at 1am on a school night you've got bigger problems than vapes and booze and hot sausage rolls. 
    • There used to be a better baker than Gail's on the same site immediately before Gail's pulled their financial muscle.
