blonde poker forum

Hi,

I guess I broke some rules as my previous post has been removed.

Tikay, sorry if I did someting wrong.

I was only telling people about my new blog and that I had added a link to Blonde Poker!

Let me know what I can and can't do and then I will and I won't!

Stay Wild!

Richie

richie as per my PM your first post has been removed while the mods decide on its suitablity

this post has had the link to your website removed while we discuss the posts but as you are already aware you can put links to your site in your profile just please dont put them on the main board

we have also moved this post from the profile board to this the general disscussions board

Hi,

I hadn't seen the PM so apologies!!

I have added a link to Blonde Poker on my blog and so thought it only fair that I be allowed to add a link on forum, but I respect your rules.

Just hope many of you will follow my progress in the world of poker via my blog.

Would love to know what people think of my article; Taking the Texas Holdem Bull by the horns.

Stay Wild!

Richie

I'm feeling wild already!

dont worry richie you have a clickable link to your site anyone wishing to see your site just needs to click on the globe

we are disscussing your post ATM but as a rule we only allow links to sites in profiles and text links in signatures

welcome to blonde richie.....

Thanks TightEnd.

I respect your rules and have no issue about you pulling my 1st post.

I didn't realise the globe was a link. And as you say people can find it on my profile.

It would be great to know where some good live games are played.

I'm very nervous about going to my first casino game!! So any advice would be gratefully received.

Richie

where do you live?


Have you checked through the Live Poker board yet?

Who's Australian Jon Bachman, the guy who won you say won $7.9m at last years WSOP?

Might be a  :blonde: on my part, but I think you mean Joe Hachem winning $7.5m.

Thanks for that. Updated. I wonder who Jon Bachman is then? Much poorer that's for sure!

I live in Bristol. Nope, not checked the Live Poker board, but now you've said it; I will!

Thanks

Richie

details of a new card room in bristol opening soon

Hmmmm, not true at all actually.

Welcome to Blonde mate   :)up   










I know what those numbers mean now ifm.  I wouldn't press the button.

For someone's first post it is.

Tiger Woods won $1.2m for winning the Open, not £1.4m.

And it's Ernie Els, not Ernie Else.

Is Richie Wild your real name? Do you have a sister called Deuces? I'm sure I've heard people refer to her at card games before.

huh?, you have 4187 posts, can you do it?

Just read your blog thingy. Poker is 40% chance and 60% skill? Where did you get those figures from?

I have just viewed your profile Richie.   n1,  good luck with becoming the new face of the WPT, WSOP.   It's a Wonderful Life.  I have always wanted to see this film, but always miss it when its on.   

Do what?

LOL, put a non text link in your sig, what did you think i was on about?

Playing the pia-pia-pia-no pia-no pia-no.

Thought you were on about a link in the body of text.  :blonde:

Now I'm up to speed.

I can link to www.google.com (http://www.google.com) all day long.

;scarymoment;

At least I hope so ..

Welcome to blonde Mr Wild!

Everyone knows that poker is 30% observation, 50% chance and 30% mathematics.

Nah seriously though, you can't really quantify this for "poker" as the skill vs luck element (or more quantifiably, your standard deviation) will vary depending on what form of poker you play.

I'd actually argue that most poker is 0% luck. Trouble is, explaining why to a layman (or mug punter) without boring them to tears.

Yeah, but not in your sig without it being text only.

Feeling glad I'm not the only one who didn't catch the jist of Ironside and ifm's la-de-doo

sorry i should of said NON clickable text links

Apparently links are bad for the "SEO" (i dunno what they are either) and because of this links were kept to an absolute minimum and clickable links in sigs were disabled.
I was being pedantic (out of character i know) as this doesn't appear to be the case with everyone.
I just don't like the old "one rule for one, another for everyone else" thingy, it annoys me.

the only person i know with a clickable link in his sig is snoopy

I agree with the clicky link thing too, but i would of liked to see a thing where you can only get a clickable link in siggy with say 1000+ posts..
Or whatever figure was agreed, the seo thing is rubish!

How about a clickable link after doing at least 30 entertaining and informative live updates.

"SEO" = Search Engine Optimization.

I have no idea what it means, but we pay our techies to give us expert advice, & they tell us it damages our SEO to have too many links.

I would disagree there to be honest Tikay, the links you would be getting from 1000+ posters would be quality links therefore enhancing your Page ranking, linkfarms etc damage your rating which would only be from spammers etc.
ie- quality links = + page rankings.

(

Ahhh sarcasm is a wonderful thing isn't it?
As it happens sonopony is not the only one.

I will pass your comments onto our Techies.

But there are other reasons why we decided to try & keeps links under control. This is particularly important to ensure our Members don't "abuse" other sites, particularly during Live Updates by us or others.

There is no absolute right or wrong, we are just trying to hold a balanced position that ensures blonde stays clean.

Who else has one?

Me, as of yesterday....


Proud of my new blog in a childish way..

It'll go soon.

And Red.

i am sorry a small perk for time and effort that the mods put into moderating the site they have got the abilty to put a clickable link for there blog in there sig

this has more to do with the last webmasters not removing this abilty and me not having the time or the inclination to remove it from them

I did say i was being pedantic.  ;ifm;

Pedantic - you !!! - never !!!!

 ;hide;

np ian

Well, look what I started!

Sorry guys and gals. I didn't mean to stir up this much action; just wanted to inroduce myself and let you all know about my blog!!!

Thanks for the warm welcome from those of you who said hi, thanks for correcting my many mistakes in my blog!

I have now updated the blog and made changes.

I will check out the new card room in Bristol, when I can pluck up courage!!!

And I'll keep a close eye on Blonde Poker and hope to see you all at a Tournament sometime soon.

Great site and very friendly forum, someones done a great job with this.

Richie

I have no idea why they would say it damages your SEO, the more links you get to the site the higher your ranking. It's a bit of you scratch my back, I'll scatch yours.

IF the links were on the main website I could possibly see what they were trying to get at, although it still would not damage it in any way. So I can only assume it's down to possible member abuse, and in that case it's fair enough, it is your site afterall!

Richie there is a stanley card room in bristol i believe.............. they do a begineers night, where they have a nominated dealer who will guide betting protocol etc.

Richie,

Welcome to Blonde Poker.

I enjoyed your blog. Good luck with the dream.
