Rather than start a new thread to say this, I'll post it in here. The forum bug where a post times out and gets lost if you take too long to type it has now been fixed. You can take as long as you need to type something and it will be posted properly. However, using the back button still wipes your post. That's the thing our benevolent admins are working on right now.

They also seem to have fixed the problem where hitting the "back" button while in a thread took you to the first unread post instead of the previous page.

I played in the bet365 $30K freeroll yesterday.

I pick up Aces for the third time in a short time. I had won two small pots with the first two. Table is really tight. Blinds 15/30. My stack is about 1900. Villains about 1700.

1 EP limp. Folded to me, I make it 5xBB. Limper calls.

Flop comes 889. Villain checks. I bet 1/2 pot. He calls. I've seen him lay down his hands a couple of times so I really want him to call.

Turn is a 2. Villain checks. I make another 1/2 pot bet. He calls.

River is a K. Villain surprisingly makes a small bet. I push thinking he has K9. He calls and flips over 88 for slowplayed quads. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Next hand I pick up AQo. 1 limp. I push. Evereybody except limper folds. He shows A8s and wins by making a runner-runner flush.

This is why I don't play turnaments.

Oh, and btw, online poker is rigged.

Why do you care? This is NC thread so theres not much content in any of these post. I couldn't play yesterday because my money was transferred. I'll delete it if it was that awful.

Not sure if anyone else has pointed this out, but it looks like our very own moderator and no-content-post-creator got an article published in this month's 2+2 magazine. Congratulations on becoming a published poker author, Wook! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

(And it's a good article too -- go forth, read, learn and prosper...)

Hey now. We accept any and all NC content in this thread. No downswing is too small. No format too obscure. No beat that's not bad enough. Provided it's in here.

And thanks for the shout out, gharp [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img].

It's a great read, and has definitely already made me money.
