    I haven't tried this site mobile yet, but does it automatically switch to mobile skin if you use an ipod/iphone.

    I don't know the technical side behind it, but would a mobile site take much setting up. Like m.irishpokerboards.ie

              I'm hoping I am seeing things, somebody moaning about losing hands with 56o, 22 and A3 is what I seen in the last couple of posts. Not only that be they are too lazy to put it through a convertor.

                    Originally posted by LuckyLloyd View Post
                    First, Litmanen was signed and sold by Houllier. Crouch was a signing that raised eyebrows at the time, was derided when he went on a long scoreless streak but Rafa stood by him and kept him in the team. When Torres was signed Crouch was not happy to be a backup player and rejected a new contract offer, and then sold for a profit.

                    Fair enough on Litmanen! However, I don't buy it that Crouch would could not accept being a back up player, he would have been regularly involved. Why can't Rafa manage a successful rotation policy, convince players it works and keep them happy? All top managers absolutely have to be able to do this. Crouch would never have been promised a start at Spurs so why should he expect it at Liverpool and request a move? I'm not buying that.

                    Bellamy had been a trouble player at nearly every club he went to, yet was sold for a profit. There was also that golf club incident with Riise.

                    I agree, Bellamy has been a trouble player but Benitez knew that when he signed him.

                    Keane never got a chance? He started practically every game, did nothing for most of them, and was taken off when contributing nothing with a big sulk on his head. He went back to Spurs where Harry has barely played him this season. Are you saying that the fabled Arry Redknapp is a bad man manager now for not giving him a chance?

                    I'm not saying anything about Harry or that Keane hasn't been given a chance at Spurs. There's no doubt he's proven himself at Spurs. If he's not doing the business now, it's a different story. I think it's clear he was not given a good run in the Liverpool team in the four months he was there or allowed time to settle before he was moved on.

                    Villa and Spurs have almost certainly spent more money over the last few years than Liverpool yet have never come close to matching Liverpools league finishing positions. Even this season, in the midst of Liverpools worst season for years, they are barely in a better league position yet there is no public outcry for O'Neills or Redknapps head.

                    Someone earlier has posted about cash spent since Bentiez arrived and it's clear he has spent significant cash. If you want to compare Liverpool to Spurs and Villa, go for it. Let's lower the Liverpool expectations to those similar to Villa and Spurs. Is that not failure in itself?

                    In regard to Keane, Morientes, Bellamy and Crouch, Keane and Crouch are not good enough for top four clubs imo but Benitez signed them anyway so he obviously believed they were. If Bellamy or Morientes played for Arsenal, United or Chelsea, I expect they would have been far more successful than at Liverpool because they are class players who have scored goals everywhere, Morientes at CL level.

                    Obviously I am not happy with Liverpools league position, but to attack one individual for something while leaving others unscathed for the same thing is pure hypocrisy. He is a victim of his own, and the clubs previous, successes, as well as a victim of the media at larges dislike of him.

                    I understand that he is working in terrible circumstances with the yanks. I also believe that their failure this season is for the most part down to him, his man-management and transfer dealings. He is responsible for the team's position in the league. Every manager is. The Alonso and injuries excuse doesn't stand up when you compare it to United who lost Tevez and Ronaldo and have had serious injuries to key defenders all year. Arsenal have also seriously suffered.

                    Apols if this post is formatted horribly, I'm getting used to the forum. Yis'll probably want rid of me after this anyway!

                      Whatever about Rafa's merits as a manager or Keanes merits as a player the way he treated him was pathetic and showed him up to be a very petty man. He never gave him a run in the team or a chance to settle and immediately sold him off just because he wasn't 'his' man even though Liverpool are woefully lacking in good striking partners/back up for Torres who's a tad injury prone to boot. Putting petty agendas ahead of the good of the team is -EV for Liverpool.

                                      56off have to call,

                                      22 and A3 are fine plays ahead in both

                                      hand converter excuse is that i want to get my rant/vent/moan/bad beat out there

                                      i see your not seeing things also i did get AA cracked
                                      Think you def find a fold with the 22 hand under diff cirumstances imo. Loose call with the KQ hand but your image with the previous hands may have induced villian to call with the shove. Very annoying but these things happen now and then

                                        Just finished 11th in the $12,500 $5 dollar rebuy on Ipoker

                                        $125 whoop whoop

                                        5 handed table
                                        shove A5 booted, button shoves with AK and holds

                                        MY M and Q and all the other capitals
                                        were telling me shove (M 4.5, in 10th)
                                        MY gut (which was working wonders all night) was saying fold

                                        Didnt listen to gut
                                        Did what yer supposed to do???,
                                        fcuk u M
                                        Fcuk u Q
                                        Fcuk you alphabetti spaghetti

                                        annoying thing is that if i had folded we would probably have stayed 5 handed for a while, chips to be had
                                        havent closed table yet, they are all folding, scarred to do anything
                                        shovebot heaven

                                            yeah the 22 is super close imo, but shud lean to a fold cos chips are so powerfull in this as a bullying weapon

                                            yeah these things happen, i stopped playing the 3r and 10r cos they suck so much when you bust wit >100 left,

                                            my shove looking bk at A3 is defo too thin vs that villain cos it was only after i busted i saw he called a 16bb shove from UTG +1, he was UTG +2 for half his stack,

                                            he also snap called the KQ

                                            anyways thanks for the smpathy,

                                            over it now, just frustrating at the time,

                                              too lazy to put through a converter???,why are u too lazy to read the hand.

                                                      you might want to finish that post with something else
                                                      the desperate cry for sex may have something to do with the dodgy date

                                                      were drooling over soup starring at her lovelies?

                                                                            I hate it whe nmy library is dis-organised. Normally its pretty easy to sort out but i'm stuck with a few albums.

                                                                            Say, for example, an album has a few guest artists on it, I don't want the library to split the album into "artist", "Artist+guest 1", "Artist+guest 2" etc

                                                                            I was able to remove the album as various artists by using the "Album Artist" field, but I still can't merge the whole album under the one artist without delete in the guest artists names

                                                                                      I agree with that for every other show I have watched up till LOST. This is my first season having to watch it week to week apart from towards the end of last season. I am pretty glad I am gonna get to experience the final season like this as I think a huge part of LOST is the suspense created from week to week. The discussion plus reflection of the head-fucks, theories and unanswered questions are half the fun of the show.

                                                                                                            But yeah, I reckon I'm odds-on to scoop now.

                                                                                                            the continuing collapse in tax revenues is also good for this bet as it points to increased layoffs, especially in retail, over the coming months

                                                                                                                    I wont know what options I have in terms of applying for internal positions till next week, the Job Descriptions etc wont be available till then. But its quite likely the only ones will be a signifcant step backwards in terms of salary (as much as 50% cut), and career regression - anything from 5-7 years.

                                                                                                                    What are the thoughts of you guys, with the current job situation and Waterford being particulary bleak, am I best to take the step back if it comes to that or take the paltry redundancy offer?

Happy enough with better than 100% perfect eyesight and healthy eyes, just have to figure out how to stop the headaches now.
