Title: Poker 425 & The Gutshot
Post by: tikay on June 04, 2005, 02:20:47 PM
Next Thursday, William Hill are sponsoring a 200 comp at The Gutshot - "properly" sponsoring too - they are adding 5,000 to the kitty, very nice.

Poker 425 will be there to cover it, &, (beware, chirp incoming)..........

Poker 425 will be sponsoring 'ol tikay. How about that?

It's a one off, &, some would say "only" 200, but I am more pleased than I can say. My Dad would have been so proud.

This is the first, & probably last time I'll ever be sponsored, but it's another tick filled in in life's tick box. Not many left now!

Thank you Poker 425.

Congrats Tikay, will you still speak to us mere mortals now that you have really hit the big time ?

Of course - but you'll have to book it through my agent.

For the attention of the producers of 425. May I recommend that you cover the last two tables this week if you intend to get any return on your sponsorship deal.

Tony, I am told the number of runners is limited at 100...do I have to get down to the Gutshot to buy in in person before Thursday?

I guess so, though you could try ringing them, or why not put a post on their Forum? Last I heard - Friday - 60 seats were sold. I do hope you can make it.

Struth Red-Dog, does your Missus have to dress you every morning?


Blind structure. 5,000 starting chips, 25 minute clock, don't know what level they start at though.

Start time 20.00. Thats 8pm to you Tom. So 45 minutes after The Archers finish.

Location. Clerkenwell Road, London.

Web address.

http://www.gutshot.com/

Or their forum, in which there is a thread about Thursday's William Hill comp is.....

http://www.gutshot.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=1

Dress code. Same as any "regular" casino.

Parking. Park right outside if you arrive after 6.30pm. I usually park in one of the little side strreets nearby. There are plenty of proper NCP's locally if you prefer that.

Anything else?

Great news TightEnd, look forward to it.

Gonna be quite a field. I know Julian Thew, Bad Girl, Smokin Steve, Mick The Clock Cook, & Red-Dog (he can't play) will all be there, doubtless plenty of other names too.

I cant do a Live Update, got too much on & no assistants I am afraid, but I may be able to text an update or two up to our friend Ironside, or Colchester Kev.

Now I have started posting there's no stopping me. Just to let you know ALL seats went tonight at 8.00pm. I just got mine by the skin of my teeth. Look forward to seeing you all there and might be tempted to buy you a half shandy tikay.

Nice one Robert, & thanks Ironside.

I popped in there tonight to discuss some business, & I was immediately reminded of what a friendly bunch they all are, so welcoming, & they make a lovely cup of char.

Barry Martin had his 9 week old son there, Thomas I think - not playing yet I note - he's a beautiful lad, really interested in whats going on around him. What with him & Thewy's lad, Reuben, who I just adore, it's making me quite broody.
