blonde poker forum

Any blondeites going to the festival??

I think me and euge will be doing the £50, £100 and £300 freezeout

Hopefully Jen will be coming too :)

is it ranking?

dont know if its ranking ... but it will definately be raining ;)

Me and b/f are there. he lives in southend so he's playing all of them - I'm just playing Thursday and Friday. None are ranking but as the card room is a bit smaller than some it's being rumoured that the seats might sell out.

Some of the luton players are going down for it as well.

Looks like will be a good festival.  Fingers crossed Barry Mundee is tournament directing for them ;)

He'll sort out a good structure

Thanks for that. Did you have a good time in Barca?

Had fantastic time in barca, shame got stuffed on river but least went in ahead :)

Cash games were wild and frantic,  played on last day 5/10 pot limit omaha, and got back losses for rest of days :)   look a little orange now but don't tan that well anyways :) 

You coming for the slough palace raid??

Looking at my diary the only day I maybe able to make is Friday and, as Slough proper is closed, I might see what I can do.   :)

If you need us to sign you in, send me a text

Thanks Mel, I've already got membership.

Correction to what has been posted above - Thursday & Friday (Final Saturday) ARE Ranking Events.

And to confirm, Poker 425 will be there for the Main Event, as will El Blondie, Jen. Stuart Nash, & Willie Tann. Me too......

Tempted to play Fri/sat

Can I pre reg, is it a Grovsnor, how many does it seat, can someone sign me in?

Damn and Blast!!   She who obeyed has just reminded me we are going to a wedding in Morcambe on Friday  >:(

You have denied me my first chance to be helpful to a fellow blondite - I was going to offer to sign you in...   :'(

If they call the wedding off - and lets face it you've got a few days to work on them - get in touch and I'll sign you in.

Tracey  (newly christened the Ice Maiden)

Wahoo, The wedding's off (for us)

Any info for Fri, capacity, start time, cheap digs, can I pre reg, and yes, I want signing in

Thanks  :D

Ditto Red Dog.  Any more info, likely numbers and could someone sign me in....

Clay

apparently they are now accepting 107 players not 70 as in their marketing leaflet
and expecting to be full and yes can sign you in not a problem, however at the moment grandma is ill
and she will be looking after our son, so hopefully she'll be better and we can both be there fingers crossed

HELP NEEDED .... I have just been informed that my presence as a professional railbird is required in southend for THURSDAY and FRIDAY ....  anyone got details of hotels ..etc  please

yes kev , hotels are big buildings with rooms in them , usually built from brick ,with some glass attachments..

tut ... sarcasm !!!   lol  im gonna get to southend.. or Saarrfend as its known down this way ... at lunchtime tomorrow and try and find rooms ... Red, i will PM you my mobile number, give me a ring tomorrow and if you think you might last long enough to warrant an overnight stay, i might be able to help you :)

Your going to be there Kev? WAHOOO!! looking forward to it, Mrs Red says she can't wait to meet you, she never did have much taste, (she married me for gods sake)  hope you can make it

Well if Mrs Red is gonna be on the rail with me . i wish you a VERY lengthy stay in the comp... give her lots of spending money though, its her round :)

I think Robert should make the effort to get there friday night as well.... would be nice to see him :)

Yes it would, but I think he's snookered

he could claim an injury ... "sheep botherers wrist" should get him out of snooker ;)

You'd think a welly manufacurer would sponsor him

I can only get down there tomorrow now, as our little lad Declan has bad cold, and grandma has bad cold too
so means that i'll be playing tomorrow and Eugene probably playing friday  :)up

Mel, what time what time will you be there tomorrow, can you sign me chubbs and burnley in please :)

i'm going early as meeting jen for a meal so will be there late afternoon i reckon
i'll pm my number so you can text me when you are at the casino
