shit, you would have cleaned up! aces and queens in the first five hands, will never happen if you are sitting in front of the screen!

I'm always tempted to sign up to tournaments and then sit out for the first 30 mins and let all the muppets do battle for a bit but because of what you have just shown I always decide against it.

[Prowler]

not had a fkn hand since either!!

[sl0ggs]

Doh!!!

[Prowler]

lol i typed my name into google and this came up.....i forgot all about it, now i'm depressed!!!

lol i typed my name into google and this came up.....i forgot all about it, now i'm depressed!!!

Ive done raiser before and nothing of intrest - however i typed in this random user name i have (obtained by pressing down the keyboard) and there is someone with the same name on another forum!! freeky!!

[T.G]

This happened to me earlier. Came back and saw i had QQ. Couldn't get to the p.c in time and it sent me on tilt for a bit so sat out for the next ten mins to get my composure back. This was in Laddies $5 FZ this morning and evnetually came 5th when the shit hit the fan on the final table after a bit of bad luck and, thinking back, i still think that QQ was down to that!
