tighty you seem quite witty and jolly today

no more so than usual sir, which is not saying much!

One of the differences between here and the USA concerning backers is other peoples attitude.
Over here, if someone is being backed ,the immediate response is "oh he must be skint!". where as in the USA
its " he must be good if hes got a backer".

Hasan Habib & Tuan Le  are both backed in tournys and look what they have won ,people ask & are asked to be backed for a number of reasons.
. With the every increasing entry fees this is going to be a more common practise on the live circuit, I just wish people would adopt the US attitude to the idea.

good honest posts in this thread today


it's a character thing...Brits look for the faults in things, Americans look for the opportunities

you may compliment me sir, as it complements the look of the site nicely


when are you changing yours?

smithy, I'm only ragging ya....


byron, isn't that the wonderful thing about this forum, out of the most innocuous threads a discussion can emerge....?


to quote Ron Manager from the fast show "Alex Higgins - oooh, Ray readon -dracula, steve davis -very interesting, bill werbenuik -37 pints of lager a day"

My point, with the exception of Rocket Ronnie and a fading Whirlwind, there are no characters left, not a problem poker has

Slowly........

I would hope this isn't firewalled at work!!  

Mr Bab


I am not actually allowed to answer your question directly, sorry (rules for investment professionals)

 I will though say this

* Investors feel misled about Party's prospects as described to them when they floated
* This is contributing to "open season" for speculators in forcing the price down, as buyers are understandably holding off
* Party's growth has been slowing. There was debate as to whether this was "Party specific" (poor customer service etc) or industry wide. Jury out
* Future predictions?...be extremely wary about investing in shares on predictions of future growth alone, a recipe for disaster. Look at what the company is currently making, paying in dividends etc first

My comment above stands....


but it remains a very high risk situation

Ilfracombe for me

Anyway, if you are going and want some compnay, let me know

Mr Truth sir, over to you, but not in term time please


Thanks in advance

Excellent, well welcome once again


Don't feel daunted about live games, find a good rookie night, go to the cashpoint and have fun


Stupid questions? Nah, ask away, it's what Kev's here for..... 

Empire shares currently down 24%

Party shares down 5% at 75p, having floated at 110 and been to 175 first


Empire saying whole market has slowed in third quarter


This is where it gets interesting. My valuation for Party assuming no growth in the business EVER...ie just assuming cash flow from exisitng users, player base declining at 1% pa in perpetuity is 65p

Not recommending, just saying 

AND Ironing a shirt.

it was believable until then, you just had to take it too far.....
