Title: Where's the "Live poker" forum? Post by: johnbhoy76 on August 16, 2012, 06:44:33 PM Apologies if this has been asked a thousand times but I've not been on here in a while and noticed there is no forum for live poker.
Has it been moved? Is it gone? Am I just blind/stupid ? Title: Re: Where's the "Live poker" forum? Post by: TightEnd on August 16, 2012, 06:46:23 PM It's been removed, as third party card-rooms are not allowed to promote on here since our sponsorship by DTD.
Title: Re: Where's the "Live poker" forum? Post by: johnbhoy76 on August 16, 2012, 06:48:16 PM I see.
Thought I was going blind there Title: Re: Where's the "Live poker" forum? Post by: Acidmouse on August 16, 2012, 09:05:46 PM It's a shame tbh, I know of 3-4 different people from Leeds that used this forum soley for the purpose of reading about the Leeds poker scene..
they don't use the forum anymore, they never go to the DTD or ever will..... I understand why its gone though but tbh forums died a bit for me with it. Title: Re: Where's the "Live poker" forum?

I'm guessing the forum would have died more than a bit without the sponsorship... agreed (but its not actually funding 'just the forum is it...) it was needed but closing a discussion on £10 poker tourneys around leeds and the characters there i see as little threat to anything in this world :) i mean i saw a past poster from leeds handing out KFC leaflets today would have been a great spot to post it :() Title: Re: Where's the "Live poker" forum?

You can talk about it- you can start a poker thread called "The Leeds Poker thread" (like the Luton one) and post about games, players and anything else. The one thing that can't happen is Alea or Gala or other casino employees can't come on and promote their own card room. Title: Re: Where's the "Live poker" forum?

Post by: smashedagain on August 17, 2012, 02:45:27 PM I remember fondly one night Lauren Render was dealing the tourney in Braddy, the locals there give the dealers a hard time and have seen guys reduced to tears let alone girls. Anyway Bash had been getting a few bad beats and was taking it out on Lauren. He was being quite vile and then he threatened to give her a slap unless his luck improved. Well you never saw anything like it in all your life. Lauren flipped and jumped up out of her seat " come on then Bash, let's not wait for your luck to change. Let's go outside and I'll give you a kicking right now". Bash sat there in silence with a stunned look on his face whilst everyone was rolling about laughing.
Bit naughty but good for Lauren. I don't think she ever got any stick again. Title: Re: Where's the "Live poker" forum? Post by: SuuPRlim on August 20, 2012, 02:32:44 PM tbf Lauren is prolly pretty fucking hard!
