Boo Hoo 

so near and yet so far.

Can't believe what just happened! I was megga scared, I nearly folded.

Hearts just coming back down to normal rate now.

You will all have noticed the new collection of smilies now available as requested.

Thank you to blogs.mikkysworld.com for allowing us to use his graphics for the playing cards. Nice one. They work a treat.
I have some special christmas ones in store for you soon too.

Would any of you be interested in new skins? If you would like to be able to change colours and stuff to your own personal tastes I can install some but I won't bother if no-ones interested.

About the pics some of you including me have missing at the mo, as you will have noticed we are temp hosting on boro.
When we get our perm hosting sorted out pics will be there.

P.S if any of you have pics missing, as I have myself right now, I'll get those sorted out for you again today. Don't worry they are not lost and will be back in place.

I just want to say a very big thank you to all you guys you have supported us through this very difficult time.
Steve has worked very hard the last couple of days to get us back up and running. So a very big thank you to him.
We do deeply apologise for the down time we had over the weekend and start of this week.

But we have survived and we are back, for good.

Thanks again guys for sticking with us.

El Blondie pulls through finaly in unlikely circumstances in the 500 PLO last night in Paris, with 57 runners.

After 7 weeks of bad beats and terrible luck in Las Vegas, Dave flys into Paris for the Pot Limit Omaha with flu, fatigue and jet lag.
Reaching the dinner break losing a big pot and almost out the comp, only to come back and get smacked in the face by a deck of cards and claim victory for the 1st prize of 24000!!

Apologies for the time the forum has been down today.

All issues should now be resolved, if they are not please e-mail me at webmaster@blondepoker.com

Your forum should be running smoothly from now on.

Neverwin and Lawrence are heads up with Lawrence calling all in to Neverwin's raise.

Never win has Kings and Lawrence has 2's

Flop comes with three clubs, one of Lawrence's 2's is a club. On for the flush draw he hits his fith club on the turn scooping the pot and doubling up to a very nice 1.2 million.

Neverwin is left with 250K
Jarl has 524K

P.S Mick the Worm has made thye final table in the raz comp.

Jarl has picked up a couple of pots after re-raising his oposition to laying down thier hands post flop.

Finally JC is out (got 118k) with KJ v K8 (K8 flopped the nut diamond flush)
Down to 4 players chips count:

Shack 350K
Lawrence 580K
Dustin (neverwin) 750

Laurance raises 35K on SB, BB re-raises a further 60k, lawrence calls, flop AdJd7h, Lawrence checks, "Neverwin" bets $120K and Lawrence folds.

Lawrance raises, JC tran all in. AK (Lawrence) V A5 (JC Tran), Lawrence 75% favouritite....on no.......flop comes 575, nightmare, JC Tran doubles up again. JC Tran been all-in 7 times, only lost 1 of them. He now has over 100k in chips from 10k!!!!!!

Tran doubles up twice in a row.

Last double up was against Jarl who holds K4 and Tran has 54 of clubs. flop is 973 with two clubs. turn comes king putting Jarl in front.
Then Tran gets lucky again and wins the pot by hitting a club on the river giving hima flush.

Lawrence makes a move against Tran moving all in with a pair of 6's.
Tran calls with his AK - this guy aint half hitting his cards!

Flop comes 6,10,3...10 making a very pretty full house for Lawrence!

This tidy win brings Lawrence up to 750K and leavs Tran rather disappointed and running close to the felt.
