LOL, just when I decided to play the registration button literally disappeared under my mouse click, missed by one second. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] or [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] depending.

Thank the guy who managed to donk off his entire 15k stack with 25/50 blinds in less than a minute.

c/c river fish.

clayton i've played a decent amount with idolaf in smaller stuff, from my experience he's straightforward in the early stages; JJ+, AK probably.

Tried to bluff huge station already, got called twice by an underpair. 13.5k at table 60. On the plus side that guy just chopped getting his money in with 76 vs 77 on a T76 flop

The 3% withheld is much better, especially with a wider % spread between 1st and 2nd than in the 530, now they'll be able to deal (headsup) for 200k of the 300k.

By they I mean myself and one of you.
