im just sick the limits are only 100. who is pricing these matches up for you by the way- hellen keller? (not talking about these 2 matches in paticular but some of the match odds are criminal, well it would be a crime to not help yourself anyway)

nothing like a few ricks to bring the punters in - a genius move on jamie's part really, given that we always seem to get away with them...

Well given I had about 2 minutes in which to get them up on the site......  :)

We'll get our thinking hats on for round 2, increase the stakes and take away all the value!

Early news from the arena.
Kev has an early lead v Burnley John, John is a grinder though and this match could last about 3 weeks.
Bengt has chip lead over the majician plant. Could be a close match by the looks with plenty of action.

Well done lads for keeping everyone updated, I have been offline all day today. Tomorrow I travel to Barcelona, so I may be able to text to someone with results & stuff. I have Ironside's 'phone number, so it may be him.

Julian called me tonight. His match against Per-Warner-Whatsit lasted 3 hours. Julian made a disastrous move & got caught, & was outchipped by 9-1 - but he came back to do the bizz. Tremendous!


Title: Re: Barcelona Heads Up Results - Wednesday
Post by: tikay on May 18, 2005, 10:55:41 PM
pkrbt - I believe you can get a bet on at www.bluesquare.com

But be careful, betting is dangerous. Do you know anything about Poker?


Title: Re: Barcelona Heads Up Results - Wednesday
Post by: pkrbt on May 18, 2005, 10:59:34 PM

WHU Update No. 6


Gerard Serra kicks off the second day of the World Heads UpLooking back at yesterday's first-round matches, we could see that most favorites had a rather smooth entry into the second round. Only Ram Vaswani and Carlo Citrone busted out, but this was more than anything because of a very tough draw, and the only real upset that I could see was the exit of young Luca Pagano. Today we will have an additional 32 round 1 matches. And there's quite a bit to look forward to, for instance the matches between "Chief" Rob Hollink and the -as described in one of Bob Ciaffone's books- "top flight player" Derek Baxter, and the exciting battle between Smokin' Steve Vladar and "No Mercy" Isabelle Mercier. All results and developments can be found below, and for more information about chips, blinds, limit increases etc. just scroll down to update no. 3 - you can find all the information there.
