3 madasahatstand

4 Chubbs nowab

6 ChippieLeicester

7 Langboy

Well done to all of them, it was a cracking final table. madasahatstand played some great stuff and nearly won the whole thing, and both snatiramas and matt played excellently including a great move from matt which I dare not describe.

Hard luck to Teacake who bubbled

N1 mate

well done Snatiramas. it could not have happened to a nicer guy and i was sure your eyebrow twitched before you busted me with you pair of kings. ill know to look out for thepersistant talk the next time i meet you on the final table. thanks for your company and to everyone for theirs

Congratulation  Snatiramas  ;cheerleader; ;cheerleader; ;cheerleader; ;cheerleader; ;cheerleader;

Loved the Billy no mates caps  :)

Thank you so much. It was such fun to play against you and all the other ladies on our first table. Ah the incessant chatter is a problem but I am generally so excited to be playing that I want to share my enjoyment with the world. Have just gone to the bathroom to shave my eyebrows off.

By the way your call with the pair of 8's on the final table was top notch. I look forward to clashing with you and all the other blondes at BB4

Thank you think I might bring out as a brand. It says I play poker but not on a web site....hmmmm

Well done Phil - couldn't be happier to see someone else on the final table apart from myself!  (I think that may become our standard greeting!)

Look forward to wearing matching hats next time I see you at Luton.

Well done to all. Great play.

 Well done big man , i thought there was some method to all the madness ( mainly the incessant jibbering about your happiness and lemon teas. )  >:?

 and it does sound better for me to say I was busted when I ran into the eventual winners Aces

 you played a great game and im chuffed you went on and won it.

 well done again  ;applause;

You  are too kind.....did I really have aces that held up. I only remember when they get busted. It was a pleasure playing with you and all the other great people I met on Saturday. I know still gushing. It's pathetic really. Where's my lemon tea?

Congrats Phil

A worthy winner.

Must've been a surprise to some as our table applauded him when he got moved to another one with about 4 tables left.  Half the room probably thought he'd been knocked out at the time!

Well played Snatiramas :)   Nice to have you on our table for a bit earlier too.

Many thanks. I managed to sit at five tables during the comp and it was great to put names to faces

I know the relief at the thought of having peace and quiet brought such an instantaneous reaction. It was great to see you again. Hopefully catch up with you in Luton. The 8,2 off from last year is now just a distant memory

Well played that man and the final call wasn't an easy one. You looked genuinely chuffed to have won and pleased for you.
 ;mexicanwave;

 ;iagree; - he actually made two when we were heads up - the first which swung the battle towards his advantage when he called all in preflop with pocket 4's after i had reraised all in with KQ and then the hand with the K4 vs my J10. To be honest i'm still kicking myself for not reraising on the flop - i had sensed that his bet on the flop was a continutation bet and was going to reraise on the flop but as i would be first to speak i decided to see another card and if it improved my hand slightly then i was going to push then instead.

The K on the turn gave me an up and down straight draw but also gave him top pair and it was goodnight vienna........

Still buzzing now and yes I was genuinely pleased. Still buzzing now

still buzzing?


Lemon tea anyone?

The call with the 4's is proably more questionable. Having met Matt before the final table, on one of the many table moves I had, I knew that heads up was going to be a problem. I had just sat down having been moved from the ladies table. First big blind raises into me. Second time BB raises into me again. This guy is not doing smiling and all the girls think he is dishy. No point in denying it mate. What is a fat bald bloke to do. Wait for the third time I am  BB going back over with filth. Of course he is ready for me. He folds the third time I am BB. Then of course there was the moment with the 9,3. So what do I know before I make the call. 1. He can outplay me. 2. He can make the move with any 2 cards 3. His luck might be in  4. I could be badly behind...........what to do, what to do. Oh B*ll*cks I'm going to call. The rest as they say is history.

It was a great and fairly brutal final table. Very aggressive. Special mention to Mad who had to put up with my chat for a long time and at the final table had Simon on her right and me on her left (truly a rose between two thorns) and of course to Simon who brings to life any table he is at even if he does think me a tight/weak player. As I said in the incoherent drivel I gave in the interview (please god never let that see the light of day) any time I make a final table I consider myself to be lucky. To win BB3 I know I have been doubly so. Roll on BB4

Sleep deprivation, diary congestion, too many hats to juggle, & a shed-load of work to catch up on means it will take me day or two to get up to date on all the bB3 threads, but I'll get there.

But I must say, now, WHAT a Final Table - every single, solitary, one is a "true blonde". How cool is that? I could not have scripted it better. One day I'm gonna make a bB Final Table, that'll be one for the memory bank.

Well done to each & every one of them.

well played to all who made the final table..............especially matt who got lucky against my A K to knock me out

Yes, have to admit was rather fortunate - playing mainly online AA only wins 14% of the time so it was a pleasant surprise to actually have it hold up!!


Funnily enough thats one of the first things i said to BigArmo as we were travelling back to the hotel - i'm dreading seeing the interview on tv. When i made the FT at BB2 i ended up playing a load of heads up matches straight after to catch up on all i'd missed so my interview was forgotten. Didnt get away with it this time - but i think it would have helped if i'd have been given the questions to start with so that i at least could have had a few minutes to work out what to say!!

Didnt help as well having a bright light on the camera meaning i couldnt look in that direction - it was rather bright and if i remember correctly i kept looking over my other shoulder to stop myself from being blinded which will probably look really stupid on tv.

Oh well - hopefully it will be something i have to get used to!!  :D

Snatiramas & Matt - you've a lot to live down to if you're going to be as bad as my interview at BB2 - shocking!

Well done Snatiramas a well deserved winner and really nice guy who kept us ladies entertained and well done to all the final table especially Madas who flew the flag for us girls  :respect:

thanks suzanne. it was great to meet you to. you made me remeber that chubbs/simon said something about me being a girl. i told him i was a woman, not a girl. he didnt know what to say except he was trying to pay me a compliment. then he asked if i used serum in my hair for the frizz. he was digging a hole for himself at this point. i asked him 'why you think my hair is frizzy? (which it is but i thought i did a good job with the straighteners lol). he said 'no, its really smooth and straight, thats why im asking'. keep talking simon.
the best bit about putting simon out was in the taxi on the way back to the hotel. brad told me simon was a pro so i was well chuffed and glad i didnt know that at the time :) even pros cant stop the old eyebrow twitch when they have nothing!!

I promise you it is absolutely gushingly bloody terrible and that's just the bits I remember

Please stop it I'm starting to blush......

well done phil mate.

warned everyone bout your table chat and u didnt let me down  :D

top guy and top player

 ;applause; ;tightend;

well done all of you!  ;mexicanwave;

I'm glad to have lived up to expectation though I admit to being a mere novice to Simons expertise. It was good to see you again after your defection over to the dark side of Luton.Hope to cross swords again soon

He's right.

What will it take to keep it on the cutting room floor.........pleeeeaaaaaassssssseeeeee

I posted the comment in my live update mad. It was when you had the straight with 34 and he had top pair, Q2. He only called your re-raise on the river and when he saw your straight, this was after you had been demolishing him for a while, he turned to matt and snas and said "I think I'm going to leave this girl alone and concentrate on you two mugs!"

So it was meant as the nicest compliment he could pay you. :) WTG

well played Phil, everytime I saw you you had a smile on your face and thats how poker should be played.

 ;iagree;

Spent the dinner break with Phil and a very bubbely and lovely bloke and it couldnt of gone to a better person IMO

well played Mr S

pleasure to share your table and great play when you bluffed me off the pot

BTW you were an octave out during the singing

thx mate. With the number of absolute characters in the room it was just such great fun right up until the interview at the end

You are a top top geezer. Your battle with Simon was first rate entertainment. Only an Octave that for me is in tune mate

Well wasnt everyone in the comp a "true blonde"?

Ta....surprised you didn't end up with indigestion Jim....I do seem to remember looking ravenously at everybody elses meal as it went past our table

Did you get yours before the end of break Phil?

Yes mate....carried me all the way through to the 2am Tuna sarnie

May i just add my congratulations to all the finalists.
I have to say that i thought Madasahatstand was fantastic though.
She also plays a good game of Poker  :D

  ;iagree; Lovely to  meet you Suzanne and all the ladies on our table It was a honour and a pleasure to play in such lovely company!

Congrats to you, Snatiramas! You helped make my intro to a live tourney in a casino at my first Blonde Bash, most enjoyable and 'twas a good experience to see you play.   

Well done to all the finalists especially to those I am getting to know, namely AdamM and Madasahatstand.

                                                                             

                                                                       :respect:       ;applause;      :)up

Well Done Phil C.   IT is always a pleasure when the "good" guy comes first.

That's what all the girls say ;)

no, they prefer it when the bad guys do

Thanks mate. Huge congratulations on your performance. You know we were all cheering for you. Just so the rest of you know how good Jeff is.................no need you know already. He and 77Dave kept an eye on me in Vegas. Fed me (and lets be honest that takes some doing) and introduced me to the Mirage (didn't move from there for 6 days).......I was very grateful. Great players and great blokes.

Well done Phil!!  Still awaiting my lessons so one day I can win!

Just wanted to congratulate "Snatirimas" again for his win, and of course for being a big influence in making Harmony's first foray into a live MTT a little easier.

Nice one, you're a top bloke.

Did you really call an all in with 5 -4 off, and you and I look forward to seeing you both at BB4

Yep, called Colchester-Fish's all-in in the Heads-up with 5-4 off, I'd hit the flop and he only had overcards 10-8.

Can't wait till BB4, hopefully i'll last longer in the main comp and tackle you at a table.

Sad but true  :(

I know

 ;izimbra;

i see your good form is continueing mr cooklin with a nice cash at the grosvenor weds night  ;cheerleader; :cheers:

Yes....first live game since Saturday...I think it might be the new hat......... got into an argument with one of the regulars there which was a pity. Aside from that nothing beats winning

Tell us more, or is there another thread on this?

Is it okay if we let it go. Not very proud of myself
