One of my first games for the Commodore was Samantha Fox strip poker, I blame this cassette for my lifelong addiction to gambling and porn haha

That just cracked me right up mate. Literally spat my brew all over my fucking office keyboard hahahahaha

You all know what I meant, gits

Your retro stuff doesn’t get updates, if there’s a game breaking bug in it then it’s there to stay

It’s good to know that these old consoles are still alive and well, i just wish I’d kept all that stuff over the years! Some of the prices are crazy!

My Atari 2600 doesn’t receive updates!!!! No fucker told me, I’ve been waiting since 1985 and it’s stuck at 0%

Must have the wrong wirless adapter installed. Take it back the shop hahaha

Never had the Atari…..had the zx spectrum that loaded games off the built in tape deck though. Fucking loved it.

I defo want al3x the Kidd in miracle world, transbot, dragons Crystal, golden axe warrior and Robocop v terminator. Will keep me happy all Christmas day

Defo up for a catch up at goliath mate. Few drinks with fellow gamblers in one of the best casinos in the UK – what could go wrong hahahaha but yeah defo up for that.

My cash results have been really good. This year not as good as recent years but that’s simply because I haven’t played ad much as I wanted to. Hoping next year will be a belter though

It all depends on my current bankroll mate. If I’m playing cash I usually sit with either 100 or 200 big blinds with enough behind me for 2 or 3 more buy ins.

Tournament wise it depends on the guarantee and where I am work wise etc. Next year I know I will play the goliath but I will probably play the gukpt main event in Manchester and maybe Glasgow depending on where I am. I usually schedule work appointments around bigger tournaments as work pay for hoteks/travel lol

I just prefer the old consoles. I think it made me a better player. I hate the fact that with game emulators you can save your progress and just carry on.

Something about completing a game in one hit without being able to reload a checkpoint made it more fun for me. Especially games like sonic or Alex the Kidd

I just avoid online completely mate. Used to play on stars, part poker and full tilt. Going through my spreadsheet my online games where horrendous plus I went through a couple of accidents with my laptop (if you call throwing it against a wall an accident) so it was easier to just stick to live play

Ive asked for a retro sega master system to go with my old mega drive and snes so hopefully this won’t be a problem for me lol

[andywilliams1187 WANTED $398 Blocked]

To be fair the patience element is one of the reasons I play cash rather than tournaments.

Nothing worse than sitting in a tournament for 6 – 8 hours then not cashing, or seeing that the prize pool is only a couple of hundred quid.i like the big tournaments like the goloath simply because the RTI is huge – 70k for 120 buy in is ridiculous.

I am much happier playing 2-5 or 5-10 cash games depending on bankroll and current performance. I find that keeping spreadsheet helps me to monitor where I am loosing and gaining the most then I focus on the more profitable games

I love the goliath. For value alone plus the cash games only a one of the best tournaments out there. Didn’t play this year, cashed last year but not for much.

I don’t play online, I just can’t seem to be profitable online and don’t enjoy it as much as physically having chips in front of me

One thing I am very strict on is bankroll management. I have a starting stake which i put in a seperate account every january. I know that bandit has stated a few times it is important to keep certain funds separate from your usual banking account. Whatever is left in the poker account at the end of the year is used dependant on the amount I have made through the year. One year it was a trip to Florida for me and the  Mrs. Another year it was a big chunk off the mortgage. This year I will be lucky if I get a weekend in bognor lol

I play quite a lot of poker (I see it differently to gambling, which is a different discussion lol)

I prefer PLO or badugi cash games. Will occasionally play the odd Holden tournament if the prize pool is decent and I’m in the mood lol. Also like open faced Chinese poker and strip deck

Was in betfred on the fobt mate. Didn’t even think about the wildline potential as my head was all over the place at the time
