Poker is a game of skill

The cards in poker is random, but you can make the odds in your favor,
which is why playing poker is clearly a game of skill.

Play your cards right, and you'll be the winner in the long run.

I'm danish

In case you're wondering why I misspell a lot of words; it's because I'm danish, and english is a foreign language. Plus I'm writing 100 words per minute, and I don't check the articles for mistakes.

WBCOOP Event #2: All-in

Just won all-in vs shortstack. AAQx vs AAKx. Luckily I outdrew him.

WBCOOP Event #2: Monsterflop

All-in on the flop ;)
Pretty nice to flop the broadway straight and a set (draw to house in case I'm against a flushdraw or the broadway).
I wish another of those flops would come soon ;)

WBCOOP Event #1: Winner


Congrats to devlsbnkroll the winner of Event #1, and a $1050 SCOOP Entry. ;)

WBCOOP Event #2: Tournament status


DONKFIGHTER currently leads with 50k chips.
But I'm commin' for him ;)

Weird plays


I've been noticing a lot of very weird plays. I guess that's what happens in a freeroll.
My opponent decided to call my river bet instead of raising, when he had the nuts. Obviously it's pretty nice for me, but it still doesn't make much sense :D.
Earlier a guy without anything, decided to call my river bet.

Boku87 and Goral still in


A few good players still seem to be playing. Luckily I got position on Goral ;D.

WBCOOP Event #2


Won a 8k pot ;)
I hope I can go deep in this :P

First live tournament

Going to Prague to play my first live tournament ;) Or atleast my first "big" live tournament. Total worth of package: 1300 euro.
From 1 euro to 1300 euro :) Pretty good return on investment.

I'm out

I busted early too, on a stupid hand ;) That's what happens when you're playing a freeroll :P

WBCOOP Event #1


150 players already busted after 12 minutes, looks like a lot of gambling is going on ;)

Big fields


It looks like all events are going to have big fields. I wish all players the best of luck.

Starting now


The first event is now about to start.
We got 1693 players.
I am the golden fish.
Watch out for the fish, guys!
