Not sure how many people on blonde knew Emma.  I played with her for years at Genting Stoke when i first started playing live.  She worked at bet365 for years as well.  Lovely girl in every sense.  Loved the game and had just had her biggest result by a mile at dtd last month.  Shocking news.

RIP Emma.

Terrible news.

RIP Emma.

 Awful ,very sad news

 Thoughts are with her husband and daughters.

Such sad news Willo. Me too first game of poker was at Stoke and Poker Queen made me feel very comfortable she had been to Dtd over the last few months and was running good. What a shock last night when I heard.

Very sad.  R.I.P

Horrible :(


R.I.P.

Ghastly news.

RIP Emma.

Very sad, believe she had just got BRS backing and was at her first big event for them

Devistated and numb at the loss of our dear friend Emma. RIP pokerqueen. x x x

Very much the same  I was at Walsall playing cash and a Stoke reg who had been deep in the 25/25 but bust had phoned the casino after he bust to inform me of the tragedy very late on after we had caught up having not seen each other for a while.   She really was a great person to play poker with.  She played for all the right reasons and she loved the competition.  She worked in the gambling game so she got the swings.  She never moaned or bitched about bad beats.  She played the micro events live for years and enjoyed it.  It was so lovely to see her finally have a proper result then this happens.  Terrible news.  She posted on AWOP as poker queen as Kev has said. 

She really was a legend at Stoke Kev.  Terrible news.

Indeed it is Mark. Struggling coming to terms with it.

Emmas funeral is on Tuesday 5th December at 11am at Christ Church in Alsager, then at Crewe Crematorium and after at The Wilbrahams Arms. The family request only family and CLOSE friends to the crem.

Thanks kev.  I wanted to attend.  Are you going to the Wilb Arms tomorrow?  I would like to attend but i lost touch with Emma years ago.   I will be at the W Arms tomorrow.  Hopefully see you there tomorrow to celebrate the poker queens life.  thanks for posting

Hi Mark be good to see you there. It doesn't matter that you lost touch. She was still the Emma we know and loved. In fact her life was at it's utmost best, that's what makes it so tragic.

Totally agree with what you say.  See you tomorrow.  I am sure the poker queen will get an incredible turn out locally to celebrate her life inside and outside of poker.  Would be really top class if Genting Stoke run a similar comp to the Kav cup out of respect for Emma who was a proper reg in Stoke for a decade.  It would sell out just as quick as the kav cup does in Manchester.

So glad you can make it. True words spoken. You are a Stokie at heart. 😉

What time are you getting there for tomorrow?  1pm?

Today the poker community is paying tribute to our friend Emma. Stoke Genting have put on a memorial tournament in her honour. Hope some of you can make it.
