Foxwoods here i come baby!
Just finished the paradise 1k foxwoods satellie tourney and won! Another rush of adrenaline and I have to share.
I was on the brink with 1,000 chips and 10 bb. Thank goodness for ak!Â
Then after making the final table we're on a break. I get disconnected and decide to reboot. I try and connect -- FU*(&*U(*&U!!!!, the server is having problems and I can't connect for 15 minutes. I madly try to connect, send emails to support and Das_Das. All to no avail.Â
I finally connect, and found out they held up the tournament until I reconnected. I have heard about so many horror stories at other sites, that I found this extremely reassuring to play there again -- PARADISE very good!
Cheers

So you are IByte? Thanks for introducing yourself last night...

In the heat of battle, I didn't get around to asking who you were. My mistake. It certainly gave you an advantage, knowing how I had played previously. Then again, both of us have changed our games since. You certainly have moved up in the world. You are doing great!
Have fun and best of luck playing with the big boys. I hope you can visit the forum more often and give us updates on what you are up to.
I haven't been posting, as I found that it was draining my positive energy.  I need that for the tables. I'll be sure to post some stuff from the Woods though.

This forum needs the contributions of experienced members like yourself to help out the inexperienced members, like myself. There is much for this grasshopper to learn.
That's awesome! Boards haven't been the same around here since you've been gone.
Wish you well and knockem dead
I agree. Maybe it's just me, but I'd say the board has seen far less hand analysis lately then say maybe a few months back. Â Most posts seem to revolve around:
1) How to manage tilt.
2) Book recommendations.
3) Bad beat stories (did I play this wrong? When of course they already know the answer is a qualified 'No')
In short maybe I'll have to take my own recommendation and post some interesting hands (or at least hands I think might be interesting).
Congrats, and best of luck at Foxwoods! Nice to see you posting again. I find that for the most part lately, the atmosphere at good ole pokerforum.ca has been generally positive, all around. Come back!
And as for hand analysis posts, while I agree that there are fewer than before, I feel that there's probably a reason for that. I think that the reason might be because we have had a LOT of new (and very welcome) members lately. Usually, the first thing a relatively new member at a poker forum does is introduce him/herself in some way, ask some quesitons about books, home games in their area, etc. Hand analysis comes later.
At least, that was the case with me at twoplustwo, RGP, and probably here as well.
Lately, there have been some very interesting hand analysis threads in Dave's section IMO.
Actually, I almost had to retract my statement, it's been quite lively the last couple days. I guess maybe I spoke too soon...
I'm with Aces, things have seemed better as of late...maybe thats why my post count has recently started again...hope to see your input again!
Cheers
