Colchester Kev   when I saw your post I had to log inn and post I really appreciate your nice comments.

I do swing by here to see what is happening I think you guys are a great community and I respect every ones point of view no matter of what they think of me.

In terms of the donation I was lucky enough to be in a position to give some away but it still hurts
believe me if you don't you all should try it. I wanted to give enough so that it would sting its a  nice feeling and yes sure I want people to know I did it and that I will do it again. To me poker is a sport a game of skill and something that I found in life that I could do well its not about the money its about poker being what it is that is why I feel great for giving some away.

Important note about Surinder this is a fact:
Me and Surinder had no history and have no history I truly respect the guy he is a deserving champion he took what I had to offer he beat me I respect him, we are friends we had dinner in Paris on day one of WPT 2006 we talk to each other we have gone to Sauna together at he Bellagio the guy is top notch one of the best players there is.

Hope you guys let me post here every now and again and everyone play good poker I am after all of you in a big way when I meet you in any tournament I play, I will surely rip you all appart and take everything you have.

Thanks very much guys, despite some of you not liking me I still love
you all. This is a great forum and I hope you guys do very well and enjoy poker. It has been a great year for me and I hope next year will be half as good. I made up with the Mobsters and I apologized for making some stupid comments on here, for one Barneys performances in the WPT have been better then mine over the past 12 months and he was close to winning here again after doing well in this same event last year.

I am off to Australia to play some pretty big events including the first part of the 100k speed poker tour event which will climax with a 10 million buy inn final in Melbourne later in 2006. Most important Camel I send you my apologies as well and hope that in 2006 we can hold no grudges and move on you a very good player in my book. As Ah

We have beated team USA in the end and 3 of the Hendon Mob were in the team and all did great, I was the team captain a great day for International Poker. Camel mate if you were here you would have been first pick as well.

I would like somebody to come and say that they have heard me swear during any poker tournament or cash games or have evey seen me abuse the dealer in any form what so ever. If anyone continues to make things up I will respond to you like I will respond to the Camel.

I do have to respond, now I do like to remind you Camel that you started the attack not me.

Also some of the facts that you state:

Well, in Amsterdam about 4 years ago he certainly didn't prove it. He subjected me to a tirade of abuse I have never encountered before. He abused me and my family. He called me names I have never been called before or since.

The very first time I played in Amsterdam was 2 years ago this is a fact, I have never ever ever got anybodies family involved in any abuse during poker play.
I assert that you have made this up which is very sad.

As for somebody giving you 25k to play me its great I can tell you one thing:  I will play any game you can name for any amount you can count.

I am stepping down from my admin role guys. It was never me, please forgive me if I personally upset anyone. I wish all the best to this forum & I only hope that everyone understands that I am a unique person. Also I believe I have a good hart & I never tell things to make people happy.

So this is my very last post on here. Everyone please take care and enjoy life outside poker, if you take me on the felt I will be after you hard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

at the end of the day Tony G is Tony G

The last itme I looked Camel is a pro poker player. I dont hate him one bit, I replied to his thread earier in realtion to me. I actually always liked the guy and now I just have more urgency to take care of him when we play.  

Most important thing of all Camel is that I do not set an example to young players on the poker table. I set an example off the poker table.

I have looked over at all the comments about me and I appreciate all
the attention, I am disappointed that some comments were deleted, I am
very cool with anyone saying anything they like about me.

One thing is for sure
I did not change and become somebody else during the Monte Carlo
Millions. I was as I always am when there is so much pressure and such
a high profile event.  Poker to me is a sport I love the game and most
important I love to win. To get an edge I am loud and intimidating and if
I knock you out and I think you are a good player I may rub it in
after all I will be coming up against you again. I will not swear or
abuse you looks or family It will all be about poker. Also in the heat
of the moment I lose control and sometimes I wish I did not but at the
end of the day I am the way I am. Everyone is welcome to hate me or
love me. I know one thing so far I have loved to play poker and have
enjoyed this game immensely, I will continue to be me and I hope that
all can respect that.

Most interesting comment was from Dave that I am an
"Embarrassment to Blonde Poker"

This could be true but as I say again I was always like this, Dave was
with me in final table in Paris  I believe I was worse there. IF you
have a problem with me knocking out and abusing the Hendon Mob players
I am amazed. This is what I said to Ram after he was trapped bluffing
me. "I love to knock the mobsters out"  With the mob I have a very
long history and I seriously would question anyone that could be upset
by me abusing one of these poor guys after getting a beating from me.
These people are the 4 best European players they represent Europe in
Monaco against USA they play for free they are real professionals. Ram
can take it I know that, I love Ram he is great for the game also he
is a very very good poker player. I am sure Ram is cool with me, the
rest of the mob are a joke to poker the results speak for them selfs.
They might be good guys but they are terrible poker players.

Camel had some nice things to say about me as well, I can not wait
till I get the camel on my table hope you can scrape the buy in together.
And hey why are you not in Moncao wa***** like you can only sit at home
and abuse people like me. You know me better then to take a cheap shot
at me Camel.

Most important thing off all to me is that Poker is a sport and its
rough out there its tough and nasty on the felt. But after the poker is over we
are all human beings with compassion remorse and feelings. I do not
take what happens on the poker table home. I have many interests
outside playing poker and I hope that there is room in the poker game
for somebody like me, after all we humans are different in so many
ways. Ram said this to me " Your a showman and the game needs a
showman"
