Well, its a tough one on the first one. Essentially I also believe we will tap the EFSF - and obv that's what the bond prices are telling us at the moment, but think there's a bit of hype in the market that might settle down if the budget passes and Germany stops mentioning that nasty word 'haircut'!

Was thinking we've maybe a 20% chance of not having to turn to EFSF, so something along those lines converted into odds???

would ya ever feck off

you're already going to take 200 off me on our in-running bet

[Bubbleking]

PTR could be used aswell. Only luckbox's do well in donkaments

ah cash games are for donks who cant play preflop poker

[The Situation]

We could get some more student bashings from riot police in England. Live on Sky News

[Denny Crane]

no disrespect to Gholi but its only the 10th and he's had 1 big scoop and a couple of smaller ones (maybe they were last month?) - and did some guy called david not scoop big twice already this month?

and Im sure the winners of JP WSOP would have a say

what about Sean Prenderville? maybe that was last month

Anyway no point in deciding until the end of the month

edit - also you'd have to make it realitive. Player A winning 5k may not be the same as player B winning 5k

so it'd just be who scooped the donkaments that month?

[Raoul Duke III]

Was that a bit cheeky?! What odds were you thinking?

something realistic

it was only a few weeks ago that you were pooh-poohing my suggestions that we were broke. Surely you can't have done a massive U-turn in that time?

[Solskjaer]

lol, I scored one of the hottest birds in PwC when I was on work placement there a good few years ago. Wonder if she was on the list? Note: not a shameless brag, I was like 'eh wat, are you sure?' as it was goin' on!

IPB player of the month. No need to look further.

Danny Diamond should get a lifetime achievement for shagging Andrea Coor , in which case I waana be a hall of famer for doing Britney and Sandra Bullock.

[Bubbleking]

all the cash game dude coming down hard on the tourney players

[Hitchhiker's Guide To...]

...

[Raoul Duke III]

I don't equate us going to a different funding source to us being broke. There isn't that big a question mark over our long-term ability to repay imo, and that's what being broke really is. Cash-poor yeah, but not broke.

And on a similar but opposite point, you now seem a little less certain that we're actually going to use the EFSF?

I'll take 1/2

400 to win 200 (which would leave us all square )

[Solskjaer]

I welcome a new currency, it will be an opportunity to place the face of the great Ronney Drew on our monies, to remember a time when scalywags where in full flow
but the pint of plain was always there in Bagga street of a Frida and it flowed until Leeson street, then you'd take the light railling to a taxi and home.
Then lie on till Saturda noon and off to watch the rugby, then on to drink in Sam Sara to eye up the posh burds and later get a roide outa the desperat wans in coppers.
How abou this Frida, all gluem and duem is banned and we all concentrate of a pre-budget piss up. Mcwilliams and Raoul have predicted harsh times ahead, so I vote we bury the two of them alive in a little prank and dig them up Sunday. (wahwahwah) Methinks the wordle will be a brighter place to the pair of them come the morn.

[Raoul Duke III]

Wouldn't be interested at those odds. As said I think we will use the EFSF, I just don't think its that certain. But definitely think a greater than 50% chance. I'm thinking maybe of whatever the odds are that's halfway between 1/4 and 1/3...

well you have certainly changed your tune

500 at 2/5

final offer

Hello Mr Banker!


In other news, I just picked up Red Dead Redemption and Black Ops. There goes my November

[Theresa]

Is there a way to filter the players in HEM by the numbers of hands I have on them?

Want to go back through teh hands of the most frequent regs I play against. (*all their hands, not just their hands v me)

Cheers.

[Emmet]

Go to "players" on the left side
Set the date filters, site filter, and minimum hands filters...

[Keane]

What are the implications for peoples' debts with the Irish banks in the case they go busto lads?

Does anything about the current situation make it a good time to borrow if you can get the facility?

It must be good news if nobody wants to talk about it...

Pretty sure Gholi doesn't want to blow his own trumpet, but he's up almost $30k in the last 4-5 weeks which is pretty sweet, so it's not just the 1 big score.

On the left hand side it on the main screen, it says "Players" and the number of unique players you have in your database. Once you click on that, you can see how many hands on each player, and filter it by 6 max/number of hands etc

[ionapaul]

It must be good news if nobody wants to talk about it...

Even if the bank was wound down, your debt would just be sold on and you'd still have to repay - without the leniancy the Irish banks have been showing so far! Borrowing loadsa moniez in anticipation of banks disappearing isn't going to work, sorry to say...it is our patriotic duty to repay those bondholders the billions they invested in our failed banks, isn't everyone on the same page yet?

There's a "minimum hands" filter on the left hand side of the "players" tab. I think it defaults to 100 hands.

I'm off to Bang Restaurant on Merrion Row tonight, am suitable hungry and will be more so after a walk in from Milltown...will report back on the morrow!

Quick question though; I am half thinking of going to the Samoa game on Sat afternoon and know there will be loads of tickets available, and very likely to be people outside the stadium willing to sell their extra tickets at below face value...I've no clue about the laws with regard touting, can I approach sellers and offer them any price I choose below the printed price on the tickets? I'd really expect to get the tickets for half price, given that there should be loads of extra tickets bought at part of the two-game packages that people don't particularly want...

[Denny Crane]

Any recommendations for getting custom hoodies made up? Have a design in mind but it doesn't seem like the sites google are throwing up are what i want. Want a site I can design a contrast hoodie on, but no one of the ones that seem to offer them allow you to do a preview online

[Emmet]

Laws on ticket touts are like laws on littering. Everyone who does it gets away with it / Pretty much ignored.

Offer them whatever you want, keep it low though, I imagine there's a huge surplus of tickets. Would also guess you might snag a freebie if you keep your ears open

most wont.
Have you got the design?
It'd be pretty easy to preview from there

Am heading away travelling around SE Asia next june for 3-6 months.

Can anyone tell me how do I go about getting an open return ticket? I plan on staying the full 6 months, but I'd like to know what happens if I don't want to and come home earlier. Booking two seperate one way flights works out wayy more expensive obv, so just wondering if anyone has done the open return ticket option.

Q for the all-conquering bbv!

Im in hospital for over a week now (and pretty goddam sick of it btw). I asked a nurse while ago if I can slip out for a couple of hours to watch the Manchester derby game on sky tonite, as sky is non existant in here. She said to say nothing and just slip away

Question is, does anyone in the bbv know that if I down a few beers while watching the match, will alcohol still show up in my blood tomorrow morning? They are doing blood tests each morning monitering different levels, and in fairness, id be fcuked if the doc came back to me tomorrow evening wanting to know how alcohol was in the blood?

If theres someone out there that is knowledgable on this subject, if I had my last pint at 10pm, will it show up in blood tests taken about 9am tomorrow morning?

How does it qualify as sexism?

Student protests in London turn violent.

[Teddie]

They look fine enough!

Although seems kind of wrong for the Herald to publish their pics though.

gl to the lads seeking work after this! Is it known whether it is only people who forwarded the email who are being fired, or is it even people who just received and read the email?

would be very hard to sack someone just for reading an email, especially if they subject of the email wasn't obviously about it.

I agree it's a bit wrong to publish the photo's as front page news. Print media are droppin to new lows to try and stem their decline imo.

No way you can get in trouble for receiving it. It's the act of forwarding the mail that causes the issue.

Connie

Connie you scamp.

Depends on how much you drink, but its very likely given you've been in hospital for a week that they will see even the slightest deviation in your blood alcohol levels.

Why not just ask the nurse would it be ok for you to have a pint or two?

[thedini]

@ Connie147, 2 hrs per pint roughly speaking but don't go mad!!!!!

[Denny Crane]

How does it qualify as sexism?

Student protests in London turn violent.

NUS president Aaron Porter said a small minority of protesters had 'hijacked' the march, describing the violence as 'despicable'.
He said the violence was not part of the organisers' plans, blaming the trouble on a 'small minority' he believed had arranged it beforehand.

Seems familiar

[Zuroph]

hmm.. think i recognise one of them herald girls

Think I do too, but they are fairly generic looking. They didn't print names too did they?

not all will be sacked - the 3 main guys will probably get the sack but not the others, cause lets face it - they just received an email and then someone forwarded it on with their addresss - hardly their fault.

They are all senior associates - would that mean that would be fairly high up or how does it work in ther?

I think 3 is the winner. 3-10-2- meh

Names are in the email. PM me email addy and I can forward it on.

[Icarus152]

Connie,I doubt they'd be looking at your blood alcohol level in the first place.The most common tests they do are full blood counts,kidney function and such.Depending on what you're in for,maybe a few specific tests to do with prostate or heart or whatever.

Ask a tame nurse would it do you any harm but I doubt it would show up.If drinking is a problem,just ask them for a heap of Valium instead.Happy days.

Seriously wtf are the Herald at plastering the girls photos all over the front page ? I would think the girls involved are embarrassed enough about the whole thing without seeing their mugs on the front page of the paper. Gutter tabloid journalism at its worst!
