Title: Re: Incoming from 'Stars - High-Rollers in London Post by: AlrightJack on September 30, 2009, 10:12:54 PM Two Vic cash game regulars bought in late. Were seated on the same table and got it all in on the first hand they played. AK v A7. A7 busted and went back to play in the cash games. Allegedly they also had a 20k last longer between themselves.

Title: Re: Incoming from 'Stars - High-Rollers in London Post by: Royal Flush on September 30, 2009, 10:20:05 PM Not Sammy Sammy probs has a few bets on him winning the event at like 11-1 though! Title: Re: Incoming from 'Stars - High-Rollers in London Post by: AlrightJack on September 30, 2009, 10:28:12 PM Full flush had his Vic bar lifted so he could play in this event. What's the odds he is rebarred before the festival is over?
Title: Re: Incoming from 'Stars - High-Rollers in London Post by: GreekStein on September 30, 2009, 11:06:52 PM wonder if other barred customers would get the same treatment.
Title: Re: Incoming from 'Stars - High-Rollers in London Post by: AlrightJack on September 30, 2009, 11:13:30 PM It depends on the nature of their bar. Luke was barred for being rude to a member of staff. That kind of barring it is possible to lift. Other kinds of barring, such as those for theft, are not.
