Um, experience with a short-stack that is LOL .

Is there another one next weekend? I'm in if there is.

Stupid JJ, that hand is lightning in a bottle. If I could have doubled up there, it might have been 4 players from TP at the final table.

I probably should have focussed more on this tourney, since I haven't played hold'em in so long. Unfortunately I had a sit-n-go and a multi sit-n-go at Empire at the same time.

How come my name isn't in bold ?

I only bolded the final table guys who got points... I'm actually not certain who everyone was that was representing TPF. The other guys changed their hometowns to the name of the site they were representing... maybe we should do that next time.

The forum tourney was a blast. Thanks to all for the opportunity. I was surprised i made it to the final table, what with the crappy cards i was getting the entire game. I had to adjust my play because of it, bluffling when i thought i could get away with it. I took way too many chances at the final table and it eventually caught up with me. I did see the talk of collusion, but wasnt paying much attention to the observers. I dont know who was being accussed of colluding.

It's funny how you have so many critics watching the final table and commenting on your play. UFHoss33 was one of those "observers" who said "PKRBABY you are the worst player i have ever seen". What makes me really laugh at this statement is the fact that this guy was talking trash when he himself finished in 43rd place. I hope to meet up with this trash talker real soon, so i can show him how to play the game to win, without trash talking.

See ya at the next forum tourney UFHoss33...I look forward to a few showdowns with you.

Hey PKRBABY... welcome to the forum. What site did you play under yesterday?

I was unable to watch the final table... what sort of collusion talk was going on? Was there any evidence of it, or just the usual "this site is rigged!" crazy speculation?

I doubt there was any collusion, but even if there was, look at the results. Is there any doubt we are the best?

Lou and TP, you guys didn't even play and we still had I think 5 top 20s.

I especially liked the guy who kept telling me I was, "so easy to read" after I made some aggressive plays on the button, only to fold to a reraise (which happened a lot at the final table, I know).

I was proud of my comeback though, "You're pretty easy to read too. In the chat box." Hehe.

Yeah, the collusion talk was stupid. ChillyWilly was the one starting in with that. I'm pretty sure he was talking about me to! I was on the phone with my dad and ignoring the chat when all of a sudden he said something about me dumping my blinds to someone.

Oh well.

It was fun! Looking forward to the next one.

Dont sweat that ChiliWilly guy... that guy just cracks me up. He was at my table in the beginning of the tourney and someone got pissed off because he made a huge raise with a flush draw then hit it on the turn.

Chili then went on to tell him about the semi-bluffing chapter in Slansky's Theory of Poker book.

I really didn't notice much trash talking by people, but then again i tend to just concentrate on my cards during the game.

The few times where a problem occured was when people tried to bluff the pot when someone was all in?!!? It kept Tony in and a few others in the top 20, this was such a lame play that people invariably questioned the motives behind them, i think it was just crap play personally.

Also the trend of not calling short stacked players when it would have cost virtually nothing for the player to call. Over and over again people let the short stacked players win cheap pots and not make the correct play. If your from TP or not and there is a chance to take you out at the business end of the tourney certain plays have to be done.
