And the Nordic Warrior glory keeps coming. All those NW Wins prepared @Younguru for a High Roller Showdown win in Event 7 and moved him to #2 on that leaderboard. Awesome sauce
Throw in a Golden Donks heads up come back win for me just now too 
What a day WARRRIORS !!!
I think Dorkupine might be the strongest player in Donks. Not easy to beat heads-up at all. Way to slay the giant @southwestmba
Awesome, Younguru won a High Roller RPOS, and is in RPOS TOC. Yay!
Hey Hi Warriors. It’s so awesome that the Nordic Warriors is DOMINATING, the RPOS 12. I won my 3rd RPOS league of legends event, today(tied Excaliburn’s modern record, 1 more win would break his record, and I’ll be gunning for that). and have 1 5th, 1 mincash, 8th on league of legends leaderboard, etc, and been playing well, and a little lucky. But it’s not only me, as Excaliburn’s, Rain, Snowman, Southwestmba, XNemesis have done, played well(If I have left some deserving names out, I’m sorry, let me know.), and on top 10, 15, 20, on league of legends leaderboard. Hopefully Rain, Southwest, XNemesis, Younguru, and other Nordic Warriors make the RPOS TOC. That’s another feather in Nordic Warrior’s league cap. We have always said that Nordic Warrior competition makes us even better, and that is proven true in RPOS 12. And hopefully that translates into POS111, Silent1, and some more of the top players joining the Nordic Warriors. Thanks you all for playing, and making me, others even better. Its so awesome to play in the awesome Nordic Warriors against the Awesome players, competition. It’s also a honor, priviledge, to represent Nordic Warriors well, or at least to hopefully represented Nordic Warriors well. Thanks Rain, Excaliburn, Southwestmba, XNemesis, Younguru, and others for encouraging, supporting me.
When I first joined Nordic Warriors, I lost very quickly lol
I remember right away trying to take notes on @Sue13, @RavenL, and @jujube, who took turns kicking my ***
Steel sharpens steel, we’re all improving each other’s games here through friendly competition
So Sunday wasn’t quite through for the Nordic Warriors. In the nightcap Norris the @_snowman won RPOS #21 for his SECOND title and also vaulted himself to the top of the League of Legends Leaderboard. @Floppasaurus, @Asuronetorius , @Excaliburns, and @_Rain all joining Norris in the top 12 as RPOS comes into the home stretch.
The Nordic Warriors TOC WTA will be held this Friday at 6pm EST in the Leagues Invitational league. 2,000,000 goes to the winner!
Nordic Warriors TOC WTA
So, how about for the future, a Donks vs. Warriors tournament series? They claim to be the most prestigious/elite league on the site… PROVE IT
It would be pretty cool if our open-door band of merry men and women could defeat the “you must qualify via these measures” private club, no?
(Nothing against Donks, I am a member there as well)
I would say the Nordic Warriors are proving it, have already proved it on, via the RPOS 12 battlefield. The Nordic Warriors, Dream Weavers, Donks have the most, best representation, results in the RPOS 12, but so far, the Nordic Warriors have the best representation, results in the RPOS 12.
You are now joining the ranks of only a few.
wow @Asuronetorius 4 wins is really impressive, hard to do with so much variance in these fields, well done
Another incredible Nordic warrior performance today (and the is one more game to go tonight) RPOS 21 @snowman 2nd, @Sue13 3rd, and @_Rain 7th. to dominate 7 card stud, RPOS 22 @Asuronetorius win number 4 and @Excaliburns 5th, and Norris in 9th, the High Roller, Challenge #8 Norris adds his third win with @Trish-da-Fish cashing as well. Norris is 1st on LOL and 2nd in the HRC leaderboards with lots of company. It’s humbling to get to play with such greatness every week.
@Younguru Bro. Luke…I love this idea !!!
Congratz Snowman on RPOS 12 win # 3! Unbelievably AWESOME that 2 of us you and me have 3 + RPOS 12 wins from the Nordic Warriors! Nordic Warriors in rarified air doing what probably no league has ever done before!
Denied chance at 5th win
Thank you @Asuronetorius . You are playing some great poker. Great to see NW represented so well this year. Hopefully NW’s have a few more victories to come.
Also thank you to Joe, Andy, Luke, Michael for all the posts, congratulations and kind words posted.
BTW, the hand you asked me about on the table last night was pocket 10s.
I had A9 pair of 9’s. I figured you could easily either have 88, 22, 98, TT, 76 suited, combo straight draw, flush draw. You could have had air, but probably only about 23% to 33% to 43% you had air, bluff. Also your calling range likely hit that board semi hard. And you donk betted(your not a donk, that’s the term that used when a player calls preflop, then open bets out of position vs the preflop raiser), and since you donk betted full pot, it was more likely you were extracting value from draw, making draw pay too much, denying equity, protecting a hand, etc, instead of a bluff. Maybe if you had Donk bet only half pot, it might have had a semi better chance to be a bluff, semi bluff, but that probably would have been you building pot on draw for if you complete a straight, flush later. And vs all that, if I had called my stack would have been semi crippled down to about 3500, so your good bet put me in a tough spot, in All in or fold land. And I knew that if I folded I could find, get a better spot, and that I had a edge on some to semi lot in field. And I was right, found a better spot, but just got bad beat by a Hehaw, lol. And you were playing semi tight, so I had you on a semi tighter calling range that probably hit the board better than my pair of 9’s.
I was just curious if I was right, if my thought process, decision making right. I probably should not have asked, as that’s results oriented thinking, because my thought process, decision making process was probably right regardless of results, what you actually had. Just nice to know that I was right, lol. Nice that I can fold supposedly a seeming top pair top kicker, on a semi safer seeming board, and can sometimes make a semi hero fold, etc, altho I am not a pushover that overfolds, and folds seeming top pair, top kicker a lot.
FWIW that’s not “results oriented”
results oriented would be if you went all in with AK, he had AQ, you lost when Q came, and you said “I should have folded”
wanting to confirm that Villain’s range is value-heavy, which was the basis for your folding a relatively strong hand, is just information gathering <3
sounds like a well-reasoned, strong fold!
Nordic Warriors!
Today’s game is called ** Medieval Matrix**

Last preseason game before the fourth quarter officially gets started. Omaha is the perfect game to test all your skills and exercise your decision making. But who am I kidding the warriors are always in mid season form. So tonight we witness a great back and forth heads up battle between @mickbluffs and @Sue13 with Mick finally prevailing. Whit the @Weedwoman420 so burning in full regular season form for third and Ray @rgcrest played a great game for 4th. @southwestmba managed to capture his 3rd bubble in a row which is alot less painful during the regular season when at least the points are good. Practice is over and it time to kick off the season Friday night under the lights
