blonde poker forum

Right so the great BH is going to give the has been that is PA an ass kicking on Thursday afternoon in Cardiff, the team is heading out in support the problem is this, we need more to gamble on.

As such the gauntlet has been laid down and there is now a match between the Rookle/Me and the evil forces that are Dave "i look just like that avatar of full tilt i could become a team full tilt pro and no-one would notice" Jones and of course Tom "hitthehole" Middleton.

Now the problem is we have fck all clue about where the good stripclubs are in Cardiff let alone golf clubs, so can someone point is in the direction of a good, friendly course.

Thankyou!

Can't help on golf but the Fantasy Lounge is ok by UK standards IIRC

Celtic Manor?
The chance to play the Ryder Cup Course if you can get on at this short notice.

(what other sport gives the amateur that sort of opportunity?)

I've just had a look in my UK Golf Courses book and it appears that you have a choice of two.

Cardiff GC, or Panarth GC which overlooks the Channel.

Water hazards are probably a bad thing.

Was just hoping a welsh blonde could steer us right, get off your sheep and help please.

+1 to this.  There are a couple of great courses at the Celtic Manor.  Might be lucky to get a booking this short notice.  It's about a 25 min drive back down the motorway from Cardiff though.

St Mellons:

Played this a few years ago and thought it a great wee club.

What do you guys usually shoot?

Theres no point in playing st mellions if you cant break 100 since it is quite a long course for most people. You finish on two par fours at 437 and 464 yards.


My best recommendation, is dewstow golf club. It's not too far from Cardiff and I've played it a few times. It has two courses you can choose from, if you decide to go for the park course it boasts the UK's only par 6. It's great fun! The course is pretty immaculate all year round.

I know the yardage is about the same as st mellions, but excluding the par 6 on the park course at dewstow, it plays a lot shorter.

If you are happy to travel to play at Dewstow, then also consider St Pierre.

Not played it but heard good things. The newer course looks quite ideal for beginners with a nice mixture of short holes (admittedly, there are still some monster holes).

Dewstow is v hilly iirc, it's a good few years since I played it. It will be easier than Celtic Manor, but obviously lacks the cachet.

It's also further from Cardiff.

Where to finally recommend does depend on how good you are. if you struggle to break 100 then Caerleon has a 9 hole par-3.....

We want 18 holes. I normally shoot around 75-80 on a good day.

Demps shoots 90's and Mid and Jones have handicaps of 16 and 18 I think.

Then why the delay? Get yourself onto Celtic Manor with much haste.

Then when the Ryder Cup comes round you can say things like "I birdied this hole..." or "that putt is so tricky, it breaks both ways from back there..."

Did I mention that I once birdied the 14th at Birkdale?

4-iron to 6ft and drained the putt since you ask

Nice one, I eagled that.

WTF. Get on with it already, I was expecting you guys to be choppers.

ROUND4ROLLZ?

sure you did

Haha, sorry to kill your action Rooks but 80 is a bit conservative!
Been giving Rookie a few lessons of late and imo if he had any sort of commitment he could be a scratch player by now.

ffs, was hoping to get a big bet down you bastard.

You said ROUND4ROLLZ so assumed it was only pennies. Soz

Lol, we can have a game one day.

Norrr, as Scrote has called my bluff i'm gonna have to come clean.

I am a chopper :(

You are a poker player therefore I don't believe a word you have said in this thread.

Hahaha, vvwp.

No need to carry your bag.

heaven..

Hopefully Demps will get us one each and we can drive round in buggys while they carry our bags.

Caroline Ardy/Libby Day for me pls demps.

Amy Partridge ftw.

the man has taste

Sick fk.

Have you booked this yet demps?

8:24am

gg.

On that note, the Shrewdies do not do golf...

Haha, we will

I played yesterday for the first time in ages. Enjoyed it alot and wanna play more and more.

Leaving Rickmansworth at 4am tonight/tomorrow morning and going straight to the golf course - Demps, make sure you get the lazy fkers up and out for the game.

Part 1, up at 4am is done. Now for part 2, finding the golf course by 8.24am and part 3, meeting the others there.

Then part 4, shooting under 150.

Part 2 complete. Got here in just 2 hours. Now I gotta wait for an hour or so, sigh

I bet that the group playing behind you sure has a most enjoyable game ;)

in the 80's did you ever get up the mecca bookmakers in tin pan alley?

I can't say that i did, why do you ask ?

Edit: Well I might well have done as I was in virtually every betting shop in the West End at one time or another.

my unlce was telling me about it the other day and what it was liike with all the faces that used to get down there and i know youve been about and thought you mightve known the gaff, shrewdies thread reminded me of it because my unlce always uses the word, do you know tony bolton to talk to?

Tony's been a good mate of mine for about thirty years although I've not seen him for a year or so.

We used to play poker at a club called The Mazurka off Windmill St.

the old boy ted used to run it?

Tony is a good friend of mine too,but I havent seen him for a while. A great character.
Are you related to him Bolt?

no my uncle and him used to be really close, a lot of the storys my uncle has got from back in the day involve them two getting up to all sorts, i dont think my uncles seen him that much anymore either

I remember  at the 2004 WSOP in Binions during one of the Razz events  he stopped the whole tournament for about half an hour after he claimed one of the dealers and a player were cheating. He took some calming down after that lol

Yep Ted Isles(sp?) that's the guy, he used to run the cardroom at the Sportsman before he got into the speiler business.

It sounds as though I probably know your Uncle.

I think this thread is going to end with Karabiner realising he's actually Bolt's father.

Please behave Andrew, I've already had one long lost son turn up in the last year and I don't think I could handle another.

Mind you bolty does speak the same language as me although I have no recollection of meeting Sue Pollard.

gg lads
