Aye LOL, we were watching it live in the GreenRoom and everyone was thinking WTF?!?!

I was first to spot it was a joke (also when Bev went all-in, but kept quiet so as not to muff it for everyone else). It reminded me of an article I'd read a couple of years before about the same trick on Late Night Poker.

Very funny though :)

Lol, no it was someone from the production crew. Either Eddie Hearn / Katie Hearn / Mad Marty or someone else?

Good grief, Shannon Elizabeth claiming that if Bronwyn's cards were suited, it would factor into her decision... :dontask:

Aye ul on the AA hand Maria. 1 in 20 shot and it hit. Argh!

I have to admit I was semi-cheering the AK on from the Green Room (better to have two runners left than one...). EEeeeek!!

Aye, she owns a strip club in Glasgow. Plays at the Cincinatti Club a lot, and is the fiance of Glasgow Ranger's number 1 Allan McGregor.

She's next playing the European Open - I hope to get my logo on her instead of that HM crap lol ;)

OOOooooo.... Heads up!! Whose going to win?! Exciting isn't it!! :)

The standard of play has been really high from all players for the final, especially Jen, Maria and Bev - so could go either way!!...

If Maria's AA had held she'd have been nailed on to walk the tourney imo. That was very unlucky :(

Aye, I felt really bad about it (even at the time), but obviously I wanted to see a 1 & 2 finish rather than a 1 & 5 or something...

I actually can't remember the buy-in. I think $3,000 maybe? There were 6 heats of 6, so 36 runners + a celebrity qualification heat thing with another 6 runners.

Big congrats to Maria Demetriou, Jen Mason, and of course Beverley 'Cbass' Pace!

I like em but I know that girls only comps have a few knockers.......

Was it open to all? Or were people "selected" to buy in?

As for Women only comps, I personally do not like them - it is 100% discrimination.

But if it gets more women involved in poker that wouldn't of entered a "normal" poker tournament then it is a good thing for poker IMO

Yes it was open to all Paul, if you had $3,000 then you could play (if there was a space lol).  Actually I feel more sick about that hand now than I did at the time - lol.  Did not enjoy that.

They had a list of favourites that they wanted to play - e.g. Liz Lui,  Lucy (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=251) Rokach (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=251), Jennifer Tilly, etc. But aside from that anyone who stumped up the money was allowed to play. The earlier rounds were pretty donkish, so regardless on what you think of these kind of tourneys if you're a good woman poker player entering represents massive value.

I also liked the fact that each level was 21 hands in this structure, rather than a set time of 30 mins or so. It was much-less crapshooty than any other Matchroom tourney I'd seen before this one.

I loved this - haven't watched it all but I have taped it - I wasn't going to watch any of it last night - just let it tape - but that first hand had me laughing out loud so much I just kept on watching. Brilliant performance from all BLondes - well done  ;applause;

She's next playing the European Open - I hope to get my logo on her instead of that HM crap lol ;)

I asked about the HM logo and apparently Jackie Vaswani had two logos THM and Full Tilt but was only allowed one. So Bronwyn agreed to use the THM logo.

Jesse May had a classic line in he show, which was so funny. But with old age i have forgotten it already. Will have to watch the tape again.  :D
