The title is something made up by a Vogon guard (in the Hitchikers Guide to the galaxy) trying to be imaginative

I enjoyed very much the cinematography in the 80's classic the Maltese falcon

My only bit of advice for what it is worth is knowing the people will bring in more money than a long diatribe from me about the differences in the game. Might I suggest a tactic that I have used previously in rebuy tournies in places I am not known but it also works I am told when you are new to a cash game. Splash a little early. Put in your mind that maybe you will write off a small amount playing loose before tightening right up and cashing in with a good hand. The yanks will love it and you may get a better read on their game......Hang on did I just suggest to someone that they should lose. Ignore me I've got porridge for brains

I've got some really disgusting weight loss strawberry milkshakes if you get bored of really yummy baked potatoes

and I can only dream of the day

Quite right. The only person responsible for their mistakes are the players. I say love the dealers.......

I feel this kind of survey can only drive lose money from the game..........I of course scored loads and loads and loads. In fact I scored so high that I am going to go and live in a casino until I die from cigarette fumes.
I think that nearly all of us have some gamble in us otherwise we would not have turned up at the table. I gamble far less on the casino games than I used to and will always be grateful to one of the Grosvenor staff who led me to the cardroom. I now gamble but make a profit at it.

Now this programme really brings out the best in me. Cheering when they lose and being totally miserable if they win more than a fiver. Group hugging...yuck. Noel Edmonds makes you want to puke. The skill in winning is what exactly? Bring back family fortunes that's what I say....okay rant over

What a great post. For once I am stumped for a smart arse comment

Isn't it funny how these subjects bring out such heated debate.......maybe it's because poker players so rarely get anything wrong. Still it has been fascinating reading

beat me to the punchline again

Surely it is a matter of taste tighty

The A1124.....thoe old gags are still the best

Which means if you came back from the felt you would have backbounceabilityspandoolyiciousness. Now there's a scrabble word

Well clucking like a cockerel is a bit of a give away
