All figured out. EZ game

[Ace]

So there is a sing off in the x factor. Mary almost certainly gone then.

yea was it c-kid who said otherwise?

[The Situation]

Mary going out with a bang

[Zuroph]

Jesus, I could sing this better than Cher is right now.

[KevIRL]

Mary>>>>>Cher in this sing off and it isnt even close

[LuckyLloyd]

Mary does something extremely well, and will sell records of a certain format.

Cher is a talentless 17 year old girl soon to have major drug / eating issues and a succession of useless, manipulative men in her life of the lowest opportunist type.

[The C Kid]

yea was it c-kid who said otherwise?

Well no it was Louis, who confirmed it on Wednesday, and also the press release during the week, every tv guide and paper declares it act with fewest votes is going home.

Obviously wasn't misleading anyone, they've never misled the public in this this open a manner before.

[Zuroph]

Mary absolutely pwned the sing off.

[LuckyLloyd]

There would have been no judge decision if Cher had garnered more votes from the public.

It's like FIFA!

[shano_88]

Mary >> Cher.

Chers performance tonight was very poor.

[The Situation]

LOL stich up of the century. UL Cher backers, Simon always gets what he wants.

[LuckyLloyd]

Well no it was Louis, who confirmed it on Wednesday, and also the press release during the week, every tv guide and paper declares it act with fewest votes is going home.

Obviously wasn't misleading anyone, they've never misled the public in this this open a manner before.

Let's not forget the "Cher not voting" incident a few weeks ago either.

To be honest mate, betting on this sort of thing (i.e. not a real competition) has to be a poor decision EV wise, no?

Got to give my mate credit for an excellent facebook status this morning.

lol, I just seen this update from someone on fb.

"ATTENTION: the group asking everyone to change their profile picture to a cartoon character is actually a group of pedophiles. There doing it because kids will accept their friend request faster if they see a cartoon picture. It has nothing to do with any Child charities. IT'S ON TONIGHTS NEWS. Copy & Paste this on to your status - Let everyone know !"

Well this is first year I'm gonna lose on a series, and the edge is probably smaller than it was, but it was pretty profitable before.

I don't mind for myself, as my eyes are open to the obvious manipulation, and it's gone my way in the past on similar incidents, but feel Bad if I put people like Dead Parrot and Flushdraw of their bets on the basis of the information that was made public pre show. I'm on my phone so can't post links but in the press releases it said no sing off, fewest act out. Louis also confirmed this during the week on Radio One.

[6starpool]

Terminator 2 just starting on rte2 now. I know everyone has probably seen it loads of times, but it really is a class film, even if it is slightly dated now.

[bantee]

Terminator 2 just starting on rte2 now. I know everyone has probably seen it loads of times, but it really is a class film, even if it is slightly dated now.

Something called Outlaw is on my RTE2!

[LuckyLloyd]

Terminator 2 just starting on rte2 now. I know everyone has probably seen it loads of times, but it really is a class film, even if it is slightly dated now.

Huh? I've got a film called "Outlaw" on?

[ArmaniJeans]

Sky2 for Terminator2.

Is Outlaw any good? Bob Hoskins, Sean Bean, Danny Dyer... can't be that bad but never heard of it.

[coillcam]

Cheryl Cole with a bad dose of herpes tonight imo.

Well this is first year I'm gonna lose on a series, and the edge is probably smaller than it was, but it was pretty profitable before.

Did you not plough into Mary to go as soon as they announced it was a sing off to cut your losses? because it was always only going one way at that stage...

[6starpool]

Huh? I've got a film called "Outlaw" on?

Oops ya, sorry. Sky2 as mentioned above.

[Solskjaer]

Tiger is obv the best player in the world however Gmac is the most tenacious Tiger cant shake him off yet, 8 holes left one in it.

[NewApproach]

[ ] betting on fixed tv shows again.

Also obv you know this C Kid, but don't feel the need to apologise. You gave your opinion in good faith, and that's all that really matters. The fact simon cowell fucked us over is unfortunate, but certainly not your fault.

[Flushdraw]

So there is a sing off in the x factor. Mary almost certainly gone then.

Lol x-factor.

Sorry folks,Louis put us all away during the week when he declares no sing off. Obviously Mary beat Cher in the vote.

Well this is first year I'm gonna lose on a series, and the edge is probably smaller than it was, but it was pretty profitable before.

It's actually pretty disgusting that they can do what they want to do on this show. I wouldn't have put a penny on Cher to go if i'd have known it went to the judges and would have put the life savings on Mary to go @ 4/5. I actually feel raped if they changed the rules based on the votes. Nothing against you C Kid, well apart from being a Spurs fan!

20:00 - The X Factor (ITV1)

Series 7, Episode 9: Britain has been voting over the last 24 hours and now the semi-finalists find out the result of the public vote. The act with the fewest votes will leave the competition, and the others will compete in next week's final. Including live performances from the cast of hit US series Glee, former X Factor winner Alexandra Burke and chart-topping group the Black Eyed Peas. Hosted by Dermot O'Leary.

As you can see they changed it as late as tonight. Meltdown on Betfair forum too. I mean we all know it's manipulated so it's the danger of the game, but still pretty sick about it myself.

[CHDad]

Chelski Lucky to get the point, Essien playing, so the excuses are running out just like the milage on Drogba and cos legs. ABUs need a new team to follow

Im a Arsenal fan now.

Looks like it could be a bad night all round for you. GMac is turning the screws on Tiger.

[The C Kid]

Relax, it's Tiger

3-shot swing here possible lol.

[Solskjaer]

i can finally Lay Gmac phew*

[The C Kid]

Great round from him so far. Such a top lad. Think there will still be a swing or two to come though.

[Strewelpeter]

Relax, it's Tiger

3-shot swing here possible lol.

You nailed that one

[The C Kid]

Epic golf. McDowell playing a provisional on 14.

In case any of you lot are interested in the snooker starting tomorrow, I posted this in the gambling section earlier.


UK championships.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Always reknowned as the 2nd most important tournament on the callender, its also the 2nd best tournament of the year for punters, because with all the matches being best of 17, there's less likely to be upsets. Some players are built for the longer matches and thrive on it.
With Ronnie, Higgens, Ding (holder) and Selby all in the top half, the bottom half is quite open. I fancy Sean Murphy to come through from this half. he loves the longer matches and is in great form this year. At 10/1 for the tournament, he's my e/w bet for the tourney.

On tomorrows matches, Neil Robertson, John Higgens and Mark Selby seem to be a shoe-in, while Graham Dott and Ding Junhui also look good at decent prices. Even though the odds on the 1st 3 mentioned is a bit prohibitive, the last 2 matches mentioned are decent enough and a 5-timer on these pays a little over 4/1 (all imho of course)

Connie

Hope I broke the curse of the BBV!!!!

Nice little 5 timer there.

Ding beat matthew stevens 9-4.
Selby beat Ricky Walden 9-6
Dott beat martin gould 9-5
Higgens beat seeven lee 9-6
Robertson beat rory mcloud 9-1

[The C Kid]

Love this 15th.

fecking hell Gmac, a gee hair in it , that was.

Ha, passed a huge Chinese dude on my way back from the jacks, studying away, 3 empty Carlsberg cans on the table, a fourth in his hand and a bag with more at his feet.

Yeah I noticed..just wanted a turbo donkey to pass the time and this fit the bill. I jammed my to around 1.5k and then went card dead to sneak into the money. If you notice on the final table ^^ there's one stack that has to go through the blinds before me that couldn't afford them so I was folding aces if I got them at that stage.

[Silver-Tiger]

Love this 15th.

Its a fantastic course IMO. 13 to 18 are great. 16 is my Fav. It was even great to play on the PS back in the day.

"Lough Erne resort...it's my home away from home for a reason..."

Yeah, obviously because they've paid you mucho loots Rory! I'm laughing every time he says it, he's completely without emotion in that ad.

Pokerstars have bought the rights to HSP and due to a dispute with the FT players they probably won't be playing. So no Ivey, Dwan, Antonius or elezra.

Posts from Barry Greenstein on 2+2. What a crock of shit!

I talked to Mori yesterday and he told me Full Tilt players are invited to play and he was disappointed that Full tilt is not letting them because pokerstars is sponsoring the show. Mori never takes sides with any site. He just wants to produce the best show.

I talked to Howard Lederer and Mori.

The title of this thread is incorrect and there is also no issue about superimposed logos on players as the OP said. However, Full Tilt has two major concerns. First is they don't like their players playing when PokerStars is the sponsor of the show. (I assume Full Tilt can buy ad time but I didn't check this out with GSN or PokerStars.) Secondly, they were unhappy that PokerStars bought the HSP archives. In the early seasons of HSP, the players didn't wear logos, so FTP is concerned that viewers will be able to go to pokerstars.tv and see the FTP players without logos and be confused by their affiliation.

I was told that PokerStars will not have their name on the table felt, which I could see would have been an issue for FTP. At this time, the Nevada Gaming Commission is carefully limiting the presence of online sites in shows filmed there.

Neither Howard nor Mori were placing blame on anyone. The sentiment was that PokerStars, FTP, and GSN all make business decisions. As a poker player, I don't like restrictions and I wish everyone could play. Most of us would like to see the three top FTP cash game players on the show along with some of the other characters we have had in previous seasons. If they don't play, they'll be replaced by some new young stars of the game, some affiliated and some not.

Meltdown on Betfair forum too.

Digitial Spy exploded as well, about 60 fix threads started in the 10 minutes after the announcement of the sing-off.
Its actually quite scary, at least the Betfair punters are talking through the wallet which I can understand - whereas the DS loons are up in arms out of some sense of moral outrage.
