Flying in the morning, but having a bit of a panic now as being told I need to fill in an attestation form before flying.

Is this 'attestation form' needed now to get boarding pass or will turning up at the airport with NHS Covid pass be enough?

Sad days for both Roman and Chelsea.

Our flights (Virgin) cancelled today for May 22nd.

After Boris's roadmap, was there any indication of casinos opening up ? 21st June?

Are there any tourneys getting scheduled ?

Goliath going to happen ?

Any countries ahead of us on this ?


Fire away with knowlege, thoughts, ideas.

There seems to be a few experts or casual COVID professors on here. So can anyone have a guess at what the true death rate of this virus is yet ? My amateur stab in the dark is between 0.2 % and 0.3 % .

What performance enhancing drugs did he take?   His drug addiction massively hindered his career rather than giving him any edge.

He took medical stimulants for the 1994 World Cup to produce rapid weight loss and was banned by FIFA. He also lied about it, trying to claim he was innocent as it was in a medical drink given by a physio.


Very likely that he took this regularly during various stages of his career.


South Americans have such a different attitude to unfair play, in the UK he would have been shunned by the media and career seriously dented.

I think you need to remember Maradona was a drugs cheat too.

This tarnishes his achievements and with less longevity than Messi and Ronaldo, think he slips into 4th in the all time list.

Just watched the Ritson v Vazquez fight and for me it was a nil nil draw, definitely a hard fight to score because so few proper punches were thrown. Round 11 was the only time Vazquez landed any punch of note, and thought the commentators got a bit carried away with their support for the Mexican as the fight went on.

For me the scorecards were not necessarily wrong, more a reflection of two clashing styles : Vazquez's tip tap and run style against a guy who wasn't quick enough to catch him.

I have been following this thread and just backed Biden last night at 8/15 for a couple of hundred.

One thing I don't get, so asking the more informed here, but does Pence have a chance if Trump has to pull out? Is it not Trumps 'personality' and blinkered USA at all costs policy that appeals to his voters, what does Pence bring to the table to replace this? will he get  Republicans disenchanted with Trump to vote Red again ? 8/1 or even 10/1 seems a very low price for Pence.


Also if Biden picks the Virus up in the next few weeks what is the chance of The States voting in a black woman?

It is a useful feature for shortstackers who are below min buy-in, take the 1% hit to keep your stack shorter rather than double+ up or have to rebuy in again for an amount higher than current stack. Probably worth the 1% through benefit of a really short stack and also reduces variance.

in again.

Agreed with g'tee in PLO would help make people's minds up, but in the first instance it might be worth lowering it to 30/35k. Also not a fan of re-entries in any tourneys as players gamble too much for my liking at the wrong time in a tourney and PLO would encourage this even more. So please keep it double chance with no or very limited re-entry.

I would play without a doubt if available.

Looking for a new laptop.

Just for Poker (will run HEM alongside too), so don't need anything fancy but don't want a micro screen either.

Best recommendation ?

Can anyone tell me the validity of current GPS tokens for next year? I thought I had seen a thread on here regarding refunds or extending them to next year after the cancellation of the online leg.

I think they are valid for a year from issue

This is correct, they are valid for one year so can be used for next year's live legs

This is the problem I have my token expires on 2014-01-11.

I have ended up being unable through work to play the live legs and when the online leg was due. I have now seen the thread was on another site.
