Congrats to grader Gerard Harraghy - dau 3 of European Deepstack with 1.5m.  27 players remain.  Tid.

I had another swingy session yday.  Finding it quite tough to have a solid day of profit.  Still finished up and in prof from wen grading began but just want it to be a bit more level.  Gna start playin in a few hours and will post my skype details here.  If ne1 is available to sweat me, it could be exactly wat the doctor ordered!!

just wanted to say gl to everyone during grading, im not going to bore people with the details but time issues mean i will unfortunatley be dropping from the grading.

i wish you all the best and may the best men/woman win :)

Anyone playing 6 max know how many hands 80 table hours is?  I was guessing that at about 80 hands and hour we're looking at about 6400 hands a week.  But that seems a little low, so I'm concerned I've just vastly underestimated it.  Can anyone tell me I'm wrong?

I'd be interested in hearing when people think the best times of the day/week to play cash games are.  As a ft student with, shall we say, flexible hours, I can pretty much play whenever I want.  I always assumed that after 7pm weekdays and then all day on the weekends would be when the games were softest.  Anyone got any thoughts?

Anyone fancy a sweat session sometime today?  Any time in the next 6 hours is good for me.

Firstly like to say how much I enjoyed the workshop. Good group and I'm hoping to learn a lot. Was chatting with a couple of graders afterwards and we bounced around a few ideas that they reckoned were worth bringing up for the next 1, so here goes.

Whilst its great fun discussing Ivey and co, there's such a lot of private meta game stuff going on between these lot that a lot of the decisions made are not that relevant to our levels. What about reviewing some grader hands as well / instead? It would be great for the player to get the feedback and good for the graders to be able to quiz the plyer on why he did what he did (it was obviously helpful that Nik talked to Andrew Feldman about his hand). Maybe everyone could submit a hand to Snoopy and the powers that be could pick the most interesting if people think this is a good idea?

When we did the heads-up group sweating session, again, great fun, but not many people are super confident in that format. I did the a pokercamp type thing, and they had a similar type of thing, basically we split up into 9/10 player groups, with 1 of the pros as dealer, and just played. If anything interesting happened, we would discuss it at the end. If you folded at any point but were unsure of the decision, you just hung onto your cards and discussed it at the end. Everyone did a feedback survey at the end, and this was by far the most popular bit. Was great to get instantaneous feedback from a top pro, and everyone gained a lot.

Anyway, just thought I'd throw them out there for discussion. Again, in no way being critical, I really enjoyed the day, but as we were told, this is kind of a new thing for everybody, and surely any feedback from our side will come in useful.

I thought I posted this earlier ? so sorry if it has appeared elsewhere ..... I have an idea for an article. Has anyone successfully networked their PT3/HEM Database so that there is one central DB and the stats can be automatically picked up from whatever PC you are playing on ? 

I remember reading some articles on the PT3 Forums but I found it very difficult to follow, if anyone has done it and is willing to share the process and maybe use me as a guinea-pig, I feel we could put together a useful article.

BlackBeltPoker Graders storm the VIC and run off with all the money :-)

Well, OK not all the money, but 1st and 2nd place in the £100 f/o ended up in the hands of RedKite'Hit the flop and murder the Turn'Andy Brisland :-)and extremely unlucky Richard Hinds ;-) I will let him tell you what a donkey luckbox I am !!!!!

There were a good few BBPers taking part, some of us actually used our chips to play Poker, while one of us used his Chips as a place-holder while on serious business around the Casino.

I think Gerard and Javed made the last two tables as well, apologies if I missed any others that got near to the FT.

I am 100% convinced that if I had not been on the workshop yesterday I would have got nowhere near the money, situations arose that were directly related to our discussions. Especially me turning the nut flush and getting paid by the K high turned flush.

There will be a blog going up soon ..... I need sleep ..... I stayed on and made £150 on the 1/1 cash tables as well :-)

Which of you guys are trying STT's at the moment. Would enjoy a team viewer session with any other push / fold types out there.

My msn is Kidclarke77@hotmail.com and is same for skype if any graders want to add me, feel free to use this as a msn skype thread if you want boys n girls -) and now its in the right section oopppss

whats going on with lack of tables in 25/50c 6 max lobby tonight?? big lack of tables and all seem to be 50bb r 200bb, checked my filters nothing wrong there,,is there something wrong because i have never seen so few esp on a weekend night

I know we did a show of hands yesterday on who was doing SNG's/6-Max Cash/Full Ring Cash/Heads Up, etc for the Grading but I didn't know enough people's names to jot down who was doing the same as me (6-Max Cash).

So if anyone who is doing shorthanded cash games wants to chat about some spots in hands, or do a sweat session etc, please let me know on here or via PM. I've done this before and found it a really good way of looking at things from a different perspective.

Cheers....
