Welcome back OAKers. We have now saved whats left of OAK and we are ready again to relaunch and restart it. First I will say thanks to John (grimoak) for his long commited time here at OAK but he has decided to use his time on other matters. OAK wishes him the best of luck.
Until now we have paid out over €300.000 and being a member here will still be valuable. The first freerolls will probably have few contestans so you will take a big advantage by getting your vips and be able to participate at the freerolls.
-HARD CASH MANIA-
OAK is all about getting paid for being in a community. In the past we used to have weekly freerolls with tickets as prize pool. We have decided to still have the weekly tournaments but have cash prices instead so you can choose where to spend it. The prices will increase with the people arriving, and at the moment we will start with €250 a week. To enter this freeroll you only need 50 vips from Monday to Sunday the week before. First freeroll set up is 15/9 21.00 cet and you need to vip 50 from 6/9 - 12/9 to be able to participate.
-RAKE WARS!-
This is a concept under development but we will try it out here at OAK. Starting on monday the 6th we will monthly reward the player with the highest vip points in 24 hours (00:00 to 23:59) with €300. Everyday is a new chance to be the one taking home RAKE WARS first prize ever given. If you are realy lucky you might be the one taking the leaderboard(look further down) as well.
-Monthly 1K guarantee-
The 1K monthly guarantee will still be 500 vip but from the 1st of the month to the last day. The freeroll will be played first Tuesday the following month. 5/10 will be the first 1K guarantee and this first freeroll you will only need 400 vip until the 30/9. This will make the passwords go out early and no one will have problems like before getting them on time.
-Leaderboard-
Not one second to late the LEADERBOARD is reinstated. The prize pool in the begining will be €300, €200, €100 for those getting the most VIP from 1-31. The leaderboard will be paid out on the 10th every month. The leaderboard this month starts on Monday the 6th and ends thursday the 30th of September.
So hopefully we will all fill up our accounts as quick as possible and make OAK rise and shine again like never before.
If you have any questions dont hesitate to contact me with a PM
Good luck on the tables to all and c u there.

CATCH A SPRING BREAK AT METS POKER WITH A NEW 100% RELOAD BONUS AND INARGUABLY THE BEST NEWS FOR TOURNAMENT PLAYERS ON ENTRACTION IN A LONG TIME...
New Spring...
In the season of new beginnings, we're hoping to offer you a few exciting new promotions that hopefully will help grow your bankroll:
APRIL RELOAD BONUS
We're serving up a new round of reload bonuses for the month of April with the best terms available as usual: 100% back for deposits up to €1000 (€10/100 VIP, 30 days.) Reload code: MET100APR
SPRING TOURNAMENT SERIES
This brand new tournament series (starting from April, 22nd) is a joint effort between several skins on the Entraction network. Players that finish high enough according to the ranking point distribution structure will get points. The players' points in each tournament will be accumulated and the top 30 players with the highest scores after the series is concluded will win big cash prizes. The estimated leaderboard prizepool is around €30,000, meaning at least €7,000 for the winner!
You can find the complete schedule and daily updated standings on this page later this month.
The icing on the cake?
Each day from April 22nd - May 2nd a regular network tournament will be chosen to award points on the leaderboard with dramatically increased guarantee sums; does the sound of €20k Wild West (€3), €15k Omaha (€10), and €25k Guarantee (€10)* whet your appetite?
*) Mets Poker can not guarantee that these will be the exact prize pools as the number of participating skins on the network has yet to be finally determined. Bookmark the link above to check for the final schedule.

Hey all
The last month or so has been somehow a struggle for me, pokerwise! We all know the signs.... a few bad beats, poor decisions followed by what seems like a maountain of bad beats, lack of confidence, lack of patience and still worse decisions - and before you can spell d-o-w-n-s-w-i-n-g all you do in the tourneys is involving yourself in coinflips at best for the whole stack at level 1 or 2 of every tourney! At least I am like that sometimes....
Obviously, this leads to a downswing and though I have been a little more disciplined during this one, I have still lost more than 500€  during the end of March and the beginning of April. However (and ofc there's a good ending to all the sadness), This week has been the absolute opposite of the downswing. I am now suddenly super-confident, patient, takes the right decisions and do not let silly coinflips decide my tournament lifes  ..... As far as I remember, since last Monday, my results have been as follows;
Monday:
18:20 4K Guaranteed 10€ rebuy - 2nd place by 4-way deal 664€
18:20 5€ 100€/2K Guaranteed-satellite - SEAT WON
20:00 2K Guaranteed 100€ - 7th place 171€
Tuesday:
18:20 4K Guaranteed 10€ rebuy - 7th place 159€
19:30 2K Guaranteed 20€ Freeze - 3rd place 225€
Wednesday:
Only played the OAK-Satellite and even though I never had a stack larger than 4K, I booked a 10K-seat!
Friday:
20:10 8K Guranateed 10€ rebuy - 14th place 150€
21:00 10K Guaranteed - 13th place 223€
Saturday (so far):
13:30 1,5K Guaranteed 10€ rebuy - 3rd place 290€
The good thing is that I honestly haven't played much more than these tours - ofc there has been a few other ones, but I suddenly feel on top of my game and ready to cash in whatever tourney I register
Life is all better at the end of the tunnel - gl everyone at the tables!

Well I have been very busy with my family and work (London) the last 10-12 days, therefore no update from me here. But I have had time for some tour playing after all and some plo cash games of course 
I have actually managed to get a lot of final tables in my tours, but again and again UL and from time to time my relatively low stack has ruined it all. On the other hand I have lost some on plo cash and the “expensive” 10k guaranteed. In the OAK tours I have been “itm” the last 4 tours that I have had time for, so still no worries there; I still own you all - nothing new here, hehe but lucky for you guys I will not be able to have time for the OAK Leaderboard in 2010 as I see it.
Even though I have had so many final tables, I think it has been in 30-40% of my games, I am not up at all in my BR. This is because I have had no top 2 finishes and because I have lost in the 10k + the plo games.
Warning! From no on this will be a whining thread:
The 10k has been unfair by all means. I have played 4 of these in 14-16 days, all of them losing near the money with great UL or setups. One of them was QQ vs KK vs AA. Another was 5555 lose to 7777. Then AK vs QK. Second nut flush vs nut flush. It has been hard and therefore also very expensive. In all of the tours I could have been in top 5, if I had won the hand. From now on I will not reload when I win a 10k seat in OAK and I will not buy in directly - I must proof my worth in 20€-40€ tours first, since (as I have told you earlier) my BR is under pressure, because of some withdrawals and some loses.
In plo I have been so UL, you will not believe it. The other day I lost 300€ (6 BI), when I should have been 300€-500€ up - at least (some hands were 3 handed). I flopped nuts and lost 5 out of 6 on the river, 100-200€ pots in 0.25/0.5 and one pot I lost on turn. It kept on and on, and I was lolling in the chat. It made no sense at all - crap math. I outplayed them all, but had to see my fine odds on flops/turn cards vanish like a rainbow vanishes, when the sun is suddenly hidden by clouds - river crap - crappy sun!
Well I do not give up on plo, but again, back to basics, I can only invest 12€ pr. table from now on - for a while I hope.
In the other tours like 8k, ww, 20€ freeze etc. it has been great. I have been playing optimal BIG-OAK poker and I have been on FTs a lot, but no top 2 places. The best and weirdest tour was a 8k tour, where I struggled getting on the FT. 10 players left I have QQ and the bb/sb is huge and I am just under average. Of course I take my chances vs. utg all in, which was 99. But bb CL had AA…. Turn gave me nut flush draw, but river Q = house - wow finally I am lucky and I could enter FT as 5th. This continued and I could take 3 players out on FT, still by some nice hitting and a little luck. Then 3 left, 800 e for nr. 3 and 2,1k e for nr 1, I look down in AQ. I am sb, bb is 50k. Utg goes all in with 200k, I have 600k, CL in bb has 650k. The utg player had been almost out (he had 30k 2 hands before) and he played any two (pot odds value play) so I knew my AQ was ahead in this hand. I call, and he shows J4 - weeeeeee… flop J. I am then down to 200k in utg pos. I go all in with 55, but sb CL has 99. The tour was ruined…. And it is often like this for me and has been in 2009. Crap…
I still believe I will manage getting a big hit soon (before Summer time), but my BR is really under pressure - I hate it when my personal life needs funding from poker - I had a plan for 2009, which for the time being is totally messed up. But if I could build a bit more than I have now, then there still is a chance, hehe. 20k e BR here I come - gogogogogo.

Hey all
As indicated in the heading, I am really looking forward to the Champions League to really get going again. The winter break is such a pain, but it's all forgotten now . There are really more than a few exciting 2nd legs as far as I see it. The Barca-match vs Stuttgart should be a lock really. Even though they are challenged by injuries at the moment, Barca have to prove their class at home after admittedly having a lucky draw away. Of other good match-ups, I predict an intense affair for United when AC Milan drops by - even though it looks like a walkover for The Reds, Milan should not be underestimated and probably want to revenge their homefield defeat! Also Chelsea will be challenge against Inter. I sincerely hope that Inter can withstand the pressure they will get at Stanford Bridge.... Goooo Inter!
Finally I really cross my fingers for Lyon - and quite frankly I like their chances. Having a 1-0 advantage going into the match against Real Madrid might not look that secure and probably isn't, but the thing is Real didn't manage to score in France which can prove vital! I have no doubt Real will produce a ton of chances and also score on some of them, but they also have a tendency to slip in at least one goal in the other end - if that happens (and I desperately hope so) Real have to make 3 goals themselves which might not be as easy as it sounds
Pokerwise life is still good - even though I cannot get these OAK-sat tickets these days (and more importantly the €-points for the leaderboard), I win more than I loose. Thursday I finished a deep run in the 8K in 3rd place giving me an 800€+ prize.... And just another ago, I made a 3-way deal in the 40€ shorthanded for 300€+...... All I need now is making my horse avoid the badbeats it has experienced lately - he's playing really solid poker, but cannot make any serious attacks on the size of the BR. Hopefully it all turns in the coming days....
Until then - gl at the tables everyone!

Hey all
My sunday was just great, from my poker plays point of view, not moneywise - no big results.
Got itm in most of the tours, but no top results because of showdown UL.
In the sunday tour I made my worst play. Actually had an ok stack but choose to rely on TT on a 9 high board all the way to the river, eventhough a player had reraised me preflop. I found myself in a situaion where I believed he either had AA or AK - this was bad play imo
Alot of other tours since then has really sucked and I have lost just outside the money in alot of tours - it gives no sence at all. But then it al changed a bit, when I won a 20.30 WW, 5 way deal I think. I got more than a nd spot would have given with no deal, and with the end blinds in a ww, I was really satisfied with a 5 way deal and more € than a normal 2nd place had given Think I won 460+€
For a time being I will not touch cash games. I have had 3 evenings completely ruined by UL, losing pots of total 1500€ that I was huge favourite in. I have also taken 50% out of my BR because of this choice and will try to build from scratch again. I was more or less forced to do this because of private financial stuff 
Well I have a 10k seat tonight and once again I banged you all around in an OAK tour, damn I don't have time for the new OAK Leadboard, really nice value there!
GL all and may our BRs build again

Hey all
Tonight will be a master's night for us I think.
I'll try to play every "little" tour that I find valuable.
I'll try to update here with interesting hands etc.
Unfortunately I have been asked to play other tours than the big expensive 21.00 CET Sunday tours, like 8k gtd and stuff on the OAK staking. I have kindly said "no thank you" to Grim and co. so the OAK staking of me is off from now on I have more value in playing that tours with my own BR, I hope you all understand - I think you do
Therefore the 50k tonight is played from my own BR.
GL all today and GL OAK if you choose to find other players to stake at tours like 8k etc.
