Title: Irish Poker Championships - who's going????? Post by: Ismene on January 02, 2007, 01:57:56 PM Huge hello to everyone on Blonde,
Just wondering if any of you are intending to travel to Dublin for the Irish Poker Championships - and if you were, whether you would be up for being interviewed whilst there. I will be on site, alongside Tikay and Chili for the duration of the tournament and would love to get some of your unique poker stories / insights of the tournament. If you fancy it, and are going to be there, could you please pm me. Of course if you have any questions feel free to ask. Many thanks and the best of luck to all playing, Skrikera Title: Re: Irish Poker Championships - who's going????? Post by: snoopy1239 on January 02, 2007, 01:59:19 PM Hi there and welcome to blonde.
Jen and I will be present, but not in a playing capacity. We shall be reporting on the Event and look forward to meeting you. Title: Re: Irish Poker Championships - who's going????? Post by: tikay on January 02, 2007, 02:14:12 PM Oops, the cat is well & truly out of the bag now.....!
I should perhaps introduce new blondeite skrikera. She is a Sky TV Producer, & she is one of two Producers who are working on two new shows which will be airing on Sky TV very soon. We need some Venue footage, interviews with characters & faces, names as well as "regular guys", so here is your chance to get on proper telly! We will be there all weekend, so let's be having you. As to skrikera, like most of the Sky Production Staff on the two new shows, she's an eager Poker novice, keen to improve, but with no Live Poker experience. I promised her I'd take her to a Live Venue for "experience" & she duly turned up at Stanleys Luton last Thursday for the 39 runner £250 Freezeout, to mak her Live Debut. We (Chili & I) held her hand & told her what to do & when to do it, just play AA & KK, that sort of thing. So she bluffed & re-stole & re-bluffed everyone the entire night, & whilst the best I could do was a miserable 9th, she ended up 2nd for over a £grand! Women! Title: Re: Irish Poker Championships - who's going????? Post by: tikay on January 02, 2007, 02:18:03 PM To my knowledge, the following will be in Dublin..... Lord Gosney. (In fine form last night in Walsall) David Lloyd Jim Reid Padraig Parkinson Andy Black Lord Wernick (possibly). Red-Dog More names as soon as I remember them..... Title: Re: Irish Poker Championships - who's going????? Post by: RED-DOG on January 02, 2007, 03:35:39 PM If you are very nice to me, I might be persuaded to do an interview.
Please note, I like my orange juice freshly squeezed, (no pith) I only eat green M&Ms, and I do not allow direct eye contact. PS- Welcome to blonde. Title: Re: Irish Poker Championships - who's going????? Post by: Colchester Kev on January 02, 2007, 03:37:17 PM and I do not allow direct eye contact. Me neither ;) Title: Re: Irish Poker Championships - who's going????? Post by: TightEnd on January 02, 2007, 03:39:54 PM that tikay is a cad really
he was explaining to me what skikera meant...thus "skiker is the name of a plane and a is her initial, hence skikera" I thought nothing more of it (apart from thinking he was barmy) until the following night in Luton I met the new blondeite who proceeds to look at me blankly when I start talking planes.. turns out Skiker is the name of a PLAY....must be my hearing these days.... p.s available for interivew too! p.p.s I am very dull. You have been warned. Title: Re: Irish Poker Championships - who's going?????

You have been warned. It's YOUR hearing, &, it seems, eyesight... The name is "skrikera". not "skiker". "Skriker", for the non-thespians amongst you, is one of Caryl Churchill's most acclaimed plays, if I recall correctly. It's often very difficult to encapsulate easily what a Caryl Churchill play is about. The epithet uncompromising is very frequently seen coupled with this British playwright's name. Her work is heavily influenced by the practices of experimental and physical theatre: not one to make it easy for an audience, she prefers to tell a tale in a challenging, sometimes meandering way. The Skriker, perhaps one of Churchill's most acclaimed works, is also certainly no walk in the theatrical park. The title character is a wicked sprite that can metamorphose, chameleon-like, into different guises. Two young women - the mentally disturbed Josie and her pregnant friend Lily become the focus of the weird, jabbering sprite's attentions. She is particularly fixated upon the latter woman and her baby. Yes, this synopsis is indeed skeletal. You will, however, be lucky to extricate much more of a plot from the often nonsensical, onomatopoeic chains of dialogue that Churchill places in the skriker's mouth. And I have no quibble with this: the play is a rude, often lyrical evocation of primordial, primitive emotions and fears. It is more ritual and masque than coherent narrative. Director Emma Lindsay clearly realises this: the underworld chorus wear beautifully wrought paper-maché masks, and mime and physical theatre are employed. Unfortunately, however, Miss Lindsay doesn't manage to translate this realisation into on-stage spectacle; she doesn't manage to evoke the raw, dangerous forces that Churchill's incantatory poetry suggest. The dramatic culprits are not hard to find. On the whole, the pace is languorous, and energy is often strangely absent. The mime and physical theatre are untidy and sometimes clumsy. At times, the chorus creates interesting tableaux vivants; at times, however, they distract from the main action on stage. Scene changes are also inexplicably slow. It's a pity that this production's inability to create a convincing, compelling sense of myth and ritual detracts from some good individual performances. Shimo-Barry certainly deserves praise for transforming herself convincingly into a plethora of different characters; however she does not succeed in sending a shiver down the audience's collective spine. The scenes between Lily and Josie are well portrayed: both O'Connor and Fishwick make these characters convincing and interesting. But there are almost no trains in it at all.

I prefer 'The Real Inspector Hound' with the dead body that lies on stage for half the play before it's noticed, despite the characters literally walking over it.
