won bracelet at press event

Apologies I stand corrected I thought it was just a normal sat.

I should never doubt Chris really

[Grosvenor-Rory]

Just flicking about on the Hendon Mob... this guy has had some immense wins over the last few years

http://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/player.php?a=b&n=37972

Started out playing £200 games and then went on to win WSOP and WSOPE bracelets. Almost made it three with a 2nd place finish in a WSOPE event a few months ago, and made it deep in the WSOP Main Event.

$1.2m in tournament winnings... Not bad for a 24 year old!

[Kayroo]

OK, it is the Herald but have you ever seen an article with this tone about a sitting Taoiseach?

Cowen has lost touch with reality

sad

almost

FWIW I think you're right about him going but you are seeing what you want to see with a lot of this stuff. Only way he resigns is if he feels he can't beat the Labour No Confidence vote.

[Lord Sir Banter]

This is the paper that led with the headline 'Killers caught' a week ago when suspects were first arrested in the Michaela Harte case.

you forgot there are two options; he'll either quit or he'll be pushed

it's not the Labour motion he should be worried about, it's his own party.

Love the easy he fits the word drunk into the first sentence.

I'd be happy to go green now of I'd got on at 5.5 a profit its a profit and 2.5 feels about the right price for him to go now

Perhaps but none of them will openly push him, they'll try and pressure him into walking. Nobody wants to be the executioner here. FF members have a long memory after all.

Martin is organising a heave right now

all eyes on Tuesday's PP meeting

Like I said initially I don't think you're wrong I just think you're reading a bit much into those articles.

[Lord Sir Banter]

Just pimped Flipper's website on boards.
When do I get my referral fee?

[Raoul Duke III]

Like I said initially I don't think you're wrong I just think you're reading a bit much into those articles.

I don't read anything into them at all (who the hell takes analysis from the Heddild). I'm illustrating the tone and mood.

as the lads have said, if you got on at early prices by all means trade out. I'm happy with my call though.

You reckon he is any use ? Never heard of him

Just got overtaken by a granny on the motorway

[Kayroo]

Any recommendations for some live cash poker tonight? What time do games normally get moving at on a Friday?

Your mistake is being on the t'internet on your phone while driving.
Put down the phone now and go run her off the road.

Surely most poker people here would have heard of JP Kelly at this stage? I'm pretty sure he played a lot of events in Ireland last year, was sitting beside him in the side event at the UKIPT Dublin for a while where he was chatting with his mates about some ridiculous score he had online

[NewApproach]

Raoul, you're dead right not to lay off that bet. You got great value, why give up some of that value by laying off at a price you still consider to be too big.

[Strewelpeter]

did ya take the 5/2 sp?

no , too far from the top of the market.
Hopefully he'll be gone by the time I land in Cairo

I'd head out to Clane, I'd say there will be some lively cash games there later on tonight

Pardon my ignorance but what's on in Clane that'd generate such interest?

My bad, I've been away from the live scene for the guts of the last three years, hadn't heard his name before.

Speaking of cash, I had a strange memory of playing against you years ago and posting the hand on boards.ie.

I had AK and you had some jammy 37o or something, and valuetowned me when I was retarded enough to call down with A high.

I think I noted in the thread that you "gave me a wink" during the hand.

I'm not certain it was you, but I had a weird flashback the other day, and it seemed like it was you!

Link?

Highly doubt it was me tbh but calling with 73o does sound like me obviously.

not a clue where it is on boards. If it was BBV or if it was a "theory thread".

Don't think I can search far back enough in my posts.

I think every single post had "fold turn" in it.

Well, my stars balance reads $425.01 after stakeback (yes, I had 1c in my account lol). That's 1c more than I had in my wallet. I'm looking to cash some of this out to have a night out this weekend. BBV'ers, if anyone can help with an AIB transfer I'd be eternally grateful!!

Anybody out there willing to help with this. I'm still holding out a faint hope of making it to the karaoke tonight (lots of talent there too!) It would be much appreciated
