What's the difference between a baby's whining and that of a poker player? ...............eventually the baby will stop.

I heard the Joker had a BIG lump on himself with PP at 100/1. Nice bet!! No wonder he's trying hard

I would like to play at Dusk Till Dawn because for the first time ever, Poker Players will have an opportunity to receive a fair deal in bespoke premises operated by a Player-Friendly Management. DTD will offer a dedicated environment which will not attempt, as Casino premises do, to seduce players into playing house games at which they will invariably lose money.
Having played poker in more than 100 different locations on 3 Continents I believe I am qualified to speak on behalf of all players when I say that it's time that a fair-minded and enthusiastic Company be given the opportunity to show just how good it will be to play in a  spacious, secure and dedicated premises.

Looks like 1 hour since beginning of last level. 60 minutes per level is not bad, if they keep to it.

Is there something Fishy about those hands? They look a bit light on bling, though.

I don't care if she's a triple WSOP champion, that kind of behaviour has no place at the poker table. At least not on this side of the big pond. Perhaps other criteria apply elsewhere. That's my opinion anyhow.

Where is she from? Never heard of her but my guess is she's not from Europe.
 That kind of behaviour is exactly the kind that will give poker a bad image. One of these days she'll be surprised when she realises players will be glad when she's knocked out.

let's have a big 3 cheers for the OAP trio of Messrs Kennedy, O'Connell and Bambos. Just shows you there's hope maybe for all the young attack-dogs.

Not so stupid a rule. The card he exposed could easily influence Ash's decision.

Nice guy. Bet he's a barrell of fun.

Very well done Jen, you have created a whole new fan base for yourself.
However I think some of the reporting might make more sense if the betting were described accurately. When you bet and someone raises you, that is a raise not a re-raise. A re-raise only occurs if someone raises the raiser.

How the F can they reduce the levels to 30 minutes ?? Is this is further proof of the contempt of "powers that be" for poker players? 

The European Poker Players Association ( EPPA) was the brainchild of Mickey Finn. Its aim was to promote poker, mainly tournaments, by establishing Ranking Tournaments, proper Blind/Ante structures, reduced hotel rates and a Ranking Points System which culminated in an annual freeroll event for the leading ranked players.
It was a brave project which achieved many of its objectives. The strength of poker in Europe today can in many respects be traced directly back to initiatives which the EPPA kick-started. Virtually all newcomers to poker today have no idea how uncoordinated and indeed haphazard the scene was in those pre- computer days.
All the founders of the EPPA were enthusiastic players who had to plough completely untilled soil to get their ideas established. Having no idea how successful the EPPA would be they offered a lifetime membership for thirty pounds, thinking  that this would be sufficient to cover their administration costs. Of course it was ridiculously insufficient so when, after a few years of enormous growth in the tournament scene, the EPPA Committee had to introduce an annual membership fee of 30 pounds (  a laughably low amount when you consider the money on offer) they got lots of flak from guys who expected a lifetime supply of circulars, initiatives etc for their initial fee.
One of the big problems any organisation faces is the fact that the poker scene is now composed of so many diverse nationalities , to say nothing about the online scene. Trying to get any sort of agreement from players in Bergen, Belgrade, Moscow and Manchester, for example, is a daunting proposition. Perhaps though the fact that everyone now has access to e-communication may help overcome that problem.
I think that if any new Association is to get off the ground it will need to have a healthy membership in every country where it aims to have influence. It will probably also need a small fulltime staff to handle all the issues which will inevitably arise and for this to happen it will need to be properly funded.
I hope this is helpful to your debate.
