Last time i saw him he had just had a minor stroke but was grand apart from 50% hearing in one ear which was fun for everyone at the table.
Good excuse to post his promo video again

Series one repeat of Sharon Horgan and Graham Linehan comedy Motherland on BBC 2 at 10pm tonight. Probably a precursor to season two which is due before year end.
Recommended.

Originally posted by Dice75In the Fitz here and asked The Chief was he out of action for a while. Still getting the round about story here but the cliff notes are he had head pains & ended up having an artery removed from his head.Currently stone deaf in one ear which is fun for the rest of us!Originally posted by 5starpool View PostHis last Hendon Mob entry is in Jan 2015 for a Fitz weekly tournament, and there is an rip.ie entry for someone with his name in Feb 2015, so it could well be the case that he is dead. A search here didn't turn up anything, which would be surprising, even given the lack of poker in this thread in recent years.

I've been reading Ulysses and doing some support reading along the way to help me understand it all.
Tonight i was looking for more info on a pub that was mentioned and Googling came up with this gem of a document: James Joyce Run: Nothing Happens in the Public Houses, People Drink
So the author worked out he could cross Dublin by passing all of the pubs that are mentioned in novel and that still exist (36 in total) in a 21Km run and he wrote an academic article on it.
It has photos, maps, quotes, observations, colour and lots places people will recognise even if they never knew they featured in the great book. I'm over 20 years in Dublin and learned loads.
Well worth a look.

One of my favourite memories in poker involved this photo.
Player 1 asked the table
“if you could have the two at the end,
but had to take the one in the middle as well,
would you do it?”
There was the usual banter responses and then a lull
at which Player 2 piped up with the classic
“ah lads ffs,
if you’re getting the other two
you’d be priced in for the one in the middle”.
Poker logic at it’s best.

Lots of fat kids being driven short distances by fat parents. Something is rotten in the state of Denmark.
Gonna throw the o'l bluff in that both are fully toilet trained and see if we get the hold for 3 hours.

Aqyick enquiry (cant say where for legal reasons) tells me he got an email that he had qualified for a cash league final with a decent stack by mistake but when he turned up to no stack got the hump and quit....
So....dunno....

I will ask Denise on break and post any answer given.

Has the recent decline in deaths / reported trouble in the feud been down to good police work?

Ah, be cool if he came back on the scene, sound lad.I hold silver in tit for tat, and I love you for that

In the kitchen this morn the wife has her head in the fridge checking best befores. Asks me what date it is.
I said 29th, then corrected myself after looking at the phone.
Two of us were like 'Aug 30th, why is that date ringing bells'
Took a few moments for both of us to cop it was our 16th wedding anniversary.
Love that about her, not a bollix given for any of that nonsense. Same with valentines.I hold silver in tit for tat, and I love you for that

daughter all packed and ready to go to EP has only realised tonight that her ticket did not arrive in post and is not available for download.
apparently pointing out that she might have been a bit more careful if she'd paid for it herself wasn't the right thing to sayTurning millions into thousands

speaking of deadline day deals, we have signed the best player in the country, technically he isnt #1 but he is the most physically dominant guy out there. First session tonight and he did what was expected, smashed up left and right.
This will only resonate with the rugby folk but I heard tonight that when on international tour, warming up for the game, subs holding the pads, starters hitting them to get shoulders warm. he hit a pad so hard the sub broke two ribs and couldnt play. the amount of needed force generated for this to happen is unbelievable
