Hey rizlazizla, welcome to PokerStrategy & the Bulldog's England meeting place.

You'll find us all friendly and (try to be) helpful here and you really do learn lots.

Can highly recommend reading & re-reading the strategy guides carefully and also see if you can visit on of the live coaching sessions too, they're great at plugging small leaks in your game.

I too prefer mtt's & sng's, but am also concentrating on a NL10 sss (fr) cash game at the moment, so that this can improve my overall play.

Wishing you every success, good luck buddy,

Bart
(from Hampshire)

p.s. By the way, we now also have a social group newly formed at the following, come join us:

hey guys,

I've not visited this thread for a few weeks (not even been very active in any section). It seems to becoming inactive, so i'm bumping it now.

BTW the offer still stands. Any active English members (from this thread) that need video's of their play analysing, I'm happy to help. I have made about 30-40 video's in the past, and i'm +EV in most variants.

buyins i've played and been +EV:
DoN's up to $200's
SnG's up to $109's
FR BSS up to NL400
FR SSS up to nl200
SH cash up to NL100 (not much SH cash game experiance, but still winning at this buyin atm)
MTT's up to $109's (played a few higher buyins for fun)

Wouldn't attempt to analyse any FL or HU atm sry. I dont play FL, and my HU aint the best just now.

Best regards,
Stiev

Good bump Stiev,

Yeah, I'm still definately up for this. Is there an easy (online) way of videoing my play as I've only got an analogue camcorder and videoing on this, uploading & converting to digital would probably be a bit of an arse to do

Hope everyone had a great Xmas and wish you all a happy, healthy & prosperous new year.

Bart :P

Hi EagleStar88,

You can use a program to make the recording. Just type in desktop recorder on google, and there is lots of free ones. None are really any better than the other, they are all simple programs.

All the best,
Stiev

Hey everyone,

I hope everyone had a good Xmas and New Year. I apologize for not being very active lately, but i had some personal problems that meant i wouldn't be able to play poker for a while and i needed to withdraw all my roll unfortunately.

However things are starting to look up and i am hoping to deposit some money again towards the end of the month hopefully and i will start to become more active again.

I have decided that 2009 will be dedicated to learning tournament strategy both online and live with my cash game being mainly used for bankroll building for the tournaments. I am also hoping to qualify for some live games via the satelittes as well as trying to qualify for the WSOP as well.

I would like to personally thank everyone who has contributed to this thread since it was born and i wish each and everyone of you a very prosperous and happy new year.

Regards Steve

Good to have you back Steve, missed ya.

Hoping things are back to normal & wishing you every success in your tourney quests.

Let us know how your tourneys go & be sure to give me plenty of time to arrange for a coach load of 'ol Englanders' to rail you in Vegas :P

Whilst maybe logistically unlikely, here's hoping that we are all able to meet up sometime in 2009 for a game, a pint or two, or both :)
Might even be able to lure Soy & friends away from their Gibraltar sunloungers for a game, who knows?

Bart.

Hope everything is going well for you at the min and i wish you all the best Bart.

Hi guys,

Anyone that hasn't already, plz join the UK PokerStrategy group - http://www.pokerstrategy.com/community/external/ShowAccountGroup/g131.html

As soon as we have 30+ members I will set the ball rolling, and make a private tourney. We will probably only manage to get enough for a STT, but hopefully the group will grow when the word gets around.

Regards,
Stiev

Hey Steve,

Nice to see anothor face join the group. Congratulations on joining PokerStrategy as it is just a brilliant site and it can only help to improve your game.

Just remember to read the articles available many times until you can memorise them as they will help you no end to improve game as will the videos and coachings. But more important than the above is to make sure you learn to use proper bankroll mamagement.

Good luck on your poker journey matey.
