Title: Blackpool Notts Challenge Match Post by: ariston on May 01, 2005, 07:32:36 PM Could you email me Greg to confirm your team numbers. Haven't heard anything from you in last week or 2 and just wondering if your lot had bottled it (hope not as I have bought a rather nice trophy for the winners). There has also been a lot of interest from other casinos and I think the format can be carried forward into a league( have already had enquiries about sponsorship for said league). We can start something big here so bring out your big guns and ringers- you are going to need them ;D

Greg has been a bit busy the last 10 days. He was away on a golfing trip last weekend, & then came to Jesolo, in Italy, on Thursday with Thewy, El Blondie & myself, & we just got back home this evening. Bottled it? You wish! Game on! Title: Re: Blackpool Notts Challenge Match - To Simon Nowab Post by: robyong on May 03, 2005, 02:45:30 AM Hey Chubby, make sure you do not forget to buy me and Nick into the 500 and 1000 comps. Welcome back to Mr Grumpy. Cheers Rob Title: Re: Blackpool Notts Challenge Match Post by: bookiebasher on May 03, 2005, 01:24:45 PM He looks nothing like Chubby Brown, mind you, he is funnier !!
Title: Re: Blackpool Notts Challenge Match Post by: Junior Senior on May 03, 2005, 02:08:53 PM Hi Russ.
as Tikay says, been busy. I have sent you a mail. Suggest we finalise things Wed or Thursday. Our team so far will be 1.Myself 2.Tikay 3.Thewy 4.Rob Yong 5.Nick Whiten 6.Jamie Moult 7.One other (probably Rumit / Greek Jack / or whoever available) Bottled it? LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL Title: Re: Blackpool Notts Challenge Match Post by: AdamM on May 03, 2005, 04:57:49 PM go on Notts, rootin for you
Title: Re: Blackpool Notts Challenge Match Post by: Ironside on May 03, 2005, 05:03:45 PM i think it'll end up a draw as both sides are as poor as the other
Title: Re: Blackpool Notts Challenge Match Post by: robyong on May 03, 2005, 05:04:52 PM Greg, are we going to agree the times for the seven matches (is fome one gets to final on Fri then they can re-arrange) so we all can turn up an watch. Also, will the casino laet us use there tables?
See u thursday. Rob Title: Re: Blackpool Notts Challenge Match Post by: robyong on May 03, 2005, 05:05:41 PM Ironside,
7 head up games - there cant be a draw, no matter how bad we all are. Title: Re: Blackpool Notts Challenge Match Post by: Ironside on May 03, 2005, 05:06:57 PM of course there can
tikay v the nuggent HU 3 weeks later and they are still posting and folding and the game is called off and match ends up tied Title: Re: Blackpool Notts Challenge Match Post by: tikay on May 03, 2005, 06:28:51 PM Strange that you should say that Ironside.
During detailed planning discussions last week for the Blackpool affair - can't say too much, you never know, folks might read this note - the nightmare scenario of tikay v Burnley John arose. I mean, by the time THAT little bugger finished, we'd both be looking pretty old & haggard...... Title: Re: Blackpool Notts Challenge Match Post by: ariston on May 03, 2005, 08:58:08 PM I suggest we put burley john and tikay up as the first match to be played, we can then all finish our matches before either of them has seen a flop. Look forward to taking your money guys. Danny has said its ok to use the tables etc and he will even do the draw for us.
russ Title: Re: Blackpool Notts Challenge Match Post by: Junior Senior on May 04, 2005, 11:32:21 AM Ok team (roughly detailed below) it looks like all games will be played on Friday afternoon. We can play 2 at a time or one at a time depending on time restraints and how much grinding Tikay is still doing in match one. Ariston tells me there are now 8 people in Balckpool who know the rules of No limit hold-em' so we have had to bring in a nother man - I did some digging around for a player and have selected a real wild card in trap 8. - He aint called slo-mo for nothing!! - if you think the Tikay match will be a slow one then you aint seen nothing yet!! - enter simon 'slo-mo' Hawksworth.
250 a man to enter and the winner of each match gets 500, and the all important match point. I think the format will roughly follow that of the World Heads Up. - 3000 chips with the blinds starting at 25-50 and after 30 mins they go up to 50-100 and that is it. - they don't go up again. If by some fluke the match finshes 4-4 then there will be a tie break decider for the trophy. The Notts Line Up 1.Myself 2.Tikay 3.Thewy 4.Rob Yong 5.Nick Whiten 6.Jamie Moult 7.Rumit / Greek Jack / or whoever available) 8. Simon Slo-Mo Hawksworth I see that Notts player Barry 'Maurice' Neville took down the first prize in the 300 shoot out yesterday - Notts boys only there one day and we win straight away. - its embarrasssing really! Title: Re: Blackpool Notts Challenge Match Post by: tikay on May 04, 2005, 12:22:08 PM Slo-Mo is playing? The REAL Slo-Mo? WHAHOO! Watch out Blackpool, this man is HOT. He's a certain winner for us, though it may just take a while...... By the way, what are we doing for chips? Are we gonna buy cash chips, borrow Tourney chips, or bring our own? Thewy has a good set of chips, but I doubt we'd be allowed to bring them in to the Casino. Title: Re: Blackpool Notts Challenge Match Post by: Junior Senior on May 04, 2005, 12:25:45 PM yogi says he will give us chips
Title: Re: Blackpool Notts Challenge Match Post by: ariston on May 04, 2005, 01:29:49 PM I thought this was a team event? When originally discussed all the money was going together and the winning TEAM got the pot. That mean s even if one of you manages to fluke a win our man would still win double his money because of the 7-1 final scoreline ;) We will confirm when you get up but I think if everyone turns up Friday at around 3 (a few of the Blackpool team will obviously be there in the final of the 500 anyway) we can make a start.
ariston Title: Re: Blackpool Notts Challenge Match Post by: Yogi-Bear on May 04, 2005, 04:34:20 PM It is all in hand.
If we have all the names we can do the draw Thursday night in a break. That way we can big it up and maybe get some rowdy supporters in to watch. Yogi Title: Re: Blackpool Notts Challenge Match Post by: bookiebasher on May 05, 2005, 10:06:19 AM Hate to agree with one of blackpool boys but it is a team event so all money should be pooled and then distributed to the notts boys who can then get a round of drinks in and tell the blackpool lads where they went wrong.
Bit late in the day arranging the time....told the missus and our little girl they could come, but the little one is in school till 4pm. Not going to get there till about 7pm If you put Tikay and slo-mo on 1st and 2nd reckon I will be allright turning up to play 3rd on saturday ? Title: Re: Blackpool Notts Challenge Match Post by: Lou on May 05, 2005, 08:54:13 PM Good luck to the Notts lads. Show the Blackpool boys what you're made of. And Simon, as for the thong you 'borrowed', you can keep it. I'm sure it looks better on you than me!

Entry fee - 250 Trophy - 98 Round of buds for the wiiners - 19 The bragging rights...................................priceless!!! Good game boys and thanks to the Blackpool boys for the hospitality Title: Re: Blackpool Notts Challenge Match Post by: ariston on May 07, 2005, 12:11:43 AM Beat us fair and square, gutted, nuff said :'(
Title: Re: Blackpool Notts Challenge Match Post by: tikay on May 07, 2005, 06:40:17 AM We will try & give a brief report on the Inter Casino Heads-Up Challenge later today, but I need to get to bed, my epic heads-up match has tired me out.
We will also post details of the next challenge that the Notts Team have accepted. Title: Re: Blackpool Notts Challenge Match Post by: Ironside on May 09, 2005, 11:48:13 PM i would just like to say arriving late on friday i missed the action but did notice that all the notts boys buggered off to bed leaving the prize in the bar, lucky tikay had left his smokes on the same table and managed to reclaim it before the blackpool boys claimed it for themselves
