A fergy question

#1 30th January 2010, 1:31 AM

In October I won the Ferguson(horse) and was told that it was a much better win than if it had been holdem. Now I just wonder if it is true given that being horse it would have a much smaller number of players and I have to admit that I was over the moon simply because it was one of those games that most ppl I know and play with consider the ferguson a donk fest. I was even told by one Kiwi that to have won the Ferguson I had to be a real donkey!! So my question do you think holdem or horse is the better win?

I agree a win is a win but horse is holdem + the other games so it can be tougher . to win a donkfest is tougher and you have to get lucky a few times too but it doesn't make you a donk good job , congrats

^^This.

Congrats on the Ferguson win ozboyy!

Comparing the Ferguson HORSE to the Ferguson NLH is kinda like comparing tangerines & oranges (similarities but different):

The tangerine is a variety of the Mandarin Orange. Tangerines are smaller (ie: smaller field of HORSE vs NLH) than most oranges and the skin of some varieties will peel off more easily. The taste is often less sour (ie: Limit vs No Limit), or tart, than that of an orange.

BTW, I've taken down the NLH Ferguson plus 2 other events from a total of 14 Final Tables thus far this month (MTTS & SNGs)...so according to the peeps you know, I guess I'm a donk too?

I have to say thanks, I was only curious of others opinions. What I should have pointed out was that when he told me I had to be a donk for winning the fergy ironically we were playing the fergy!! Bazerk WTG, you are my hero to!! 14 final tables well done!
