Yay Janelle I thought I'd give qualifying a go as you were doing so well.
In the FTOPS PLO rebuy after 1 $4 MTT I donked around in [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] and 1 $14+1 SNG I crushed [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
Got one rebuy and an addon and that's it but only if I think it's going well. Don't play FTP much so not a lot there, tempted to transfer a couple more bullets but not convinced it's ev [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] From descriptions of the last FTOPS PLO event anything's possible though.
This is going to be FUN [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]
See you at the final table (I'll be railing anyway [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img])

I love emoticons. Sorry.

Cool .. it should be an interesting game at least.. I plan not to exceed an investment of $200. The structure is the same as the 3 rebuys I won so I feel fairly confident that I can make a good showing here. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] "Fingers crossed"

Wasn't worth it's own thread, just making sure this is a standard fistpumpsnapcall

Villain 1 (MP) has $12.10: Is completely clueless about how to play this game.

Villain 2 (Button) has $56.00 and is fairly tight and ABC

I don't think many would advocate a fold, but I fistpumpsnapcalled... and after the hand I was like... maybe I should have thought for a second?

I'm still musing preflop. I may be nitty enough to fold to the reraise [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img] Or I may not [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]
The super sat turbos to the PLO rebuy are hilarious. 100 chips each [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I definitely think fistpumpsnapcalling here is a mistake. I prefer hesitating for about a half second to reflect on how much it will suck if opponent has a higher flush, and then fistpumpcalling anyway.

This is correct. fistpumpsnapcalling offends the poker gods as well. Or maybe it's just me [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

I'm not sure the saying 'Get it quietly' applies to online poker although it's probably still good advice from the 'keeping an even emotional state' point of view.

That said I did allow myself a double fist pump on Thursday (but only after I'd won a 1400 runner MTT) (OK I know...barely disguised brag) [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
