Title: Looking a couple we met at WSOP from England. Post by: janetandjohn604 on July 29, 2006, 11:20:55 PM Hi all,
This is probably a VERY long shot, but we'll try anyway. Rob from thehendonmob.com suggested we give this forum a try. My wife and I weren't poker players but we happened to be at the WSOP July 20-23, 2006 at the RIO in Vegas, we were fortunate to meet 2 English Poker players (married couple) and had great fun with them. We made plans to meet up the next night but ended up not being able to get back in time to meet up. Rats! We never got their last name, and only remember only the wife's name "Claire or Clare." She was 26 short blonde hair, he was 38 and VERY funny. Claire said she was ranked as one of the better women pros in England/Europe according to her husband. We would really like to get in contact with them to say hello again. We're planning to be back in Vegas soon and hoped to meet up. They said they knew Devilfish really well, does that help at all? We've been trying to find an online database of English Professional Players but are having no luck. Our Names are John and Janet Lehman and we stayed at the RIO July 20-23. Our e-mail is janetandjohn@shaw.ca If you have any idea who this couple is or how we might contact them please let us know. We realize this is a long shot but we really enjoyed hanging out with them and now my wife and I are taking poker up as a hobby! Thanks everyone John Lehman Title: Re: Looking a couple we met at WSOP from England. Post by: Ironside on July 29, 2006, 11:40:55 PM sounds like luke smith and claire

You could also try sending them a personal message, Luke's name on here is TheDoc12345, always worth a try. Lovely couple, good luck in catching up with them. Oh, and :hello: & ;welcome; to Blonde. Title: Re: Looking a couple we met at WSOP from England. Post by: tikay on July 30, 2006, 01:15:48 PM It's a perfect description of Luke & Claire, except Claire is NOT blonde-haired, she has medium length brunette hair. As Ginger says, either PM (on the blonde PM service) The Doc 12345 (Luke) or Mrs Doc (Claire). Title: Re: Looking a couple we met at WSOP from England. Post by: Ginger on July 30, 2006, 01:37:39 PM I sent them an email last night (So did quite a few others apparently lol), They managed to catch up with Luke and Claire in the Rio so our job here is done :D
