Hi Christo, welcome!

Coverage is a bit patchy at the moment. Shamefully, we are just following the events with European interest right now, but I will be out there in a few weks, so we will (try &) do it properly then.

nooooo i love the sweaties,  My Dad was a fireman, and he used to work with a sweaty, who all the lads at the station called "THE EXORCIST"  he was a smashing bloke, always laughing and joking. It wasnt until quite recently while chatting with my Dad about old times,(he is retired now) I asked why Billy the jock was called "the exorcist" i nearly pissed myself laughing when my dad told me ........ we called him "the Exorcist"  because every time he came round your house, he made all your spirits dissapear. :)

Dave sent me a text in the early hours - "am on dinner break now, so no more texts or updates for 80 minutes". So I trotted off to bed.

I awoke to find these two, both from the Blonde One.....

"....83 players left & I lose a huge pot with AA to KK, he turns a K. Leaves me short stacked....."

18 minutes later, he sent this......

"....I went out 73rd. I had A-T on a board of T-5-5-4-6, which I bet all the way. Opponent had 6-6...."


Ayyyya.
