Lifestyles of the Rich & Famous

My eyes widened at the world El Blondie lived in every time he penned a blog entry, and now we've got the same with Blonde's newest recruit, Marc 'Mr Cool' Goowin.
It might only be sun, sea and golf, but when he's talking about private jets, big bucks and Phil Ivey, it's hard to resist a quick sneaky peak at what Mr Cool's got to say.
If you are as easily tempted as I am, then feel free to check out this blog entry by the Bronzed Brummie.
Enjoy and feel free to dream that you are there, just as I did.

I think it's really "kid in a sweet factory" stuff. The guy has no edge whatsoever, he's just a regular guy who's made good. A bit effiminate for my liking, though.

Isn't this the life we all aspire to?

If you dont know him, like I dont, some of the things may be taken as a bit disrespectful or perhaps boastful, 25k a hole etc....

I'd like it for a year or two - but at the end of the day I like security and humbleness.

When I asked Marc why he went on 'Million Dollar Cash Game' against all those top pro's, he replied in one word...
"Ego"
At least he's honest, gotta give him that.

He's gone from selling double-glazing to rubbing shoulders with the big boys of the poker world.
I read his piece as though he can hardly believe it himself.
Good luck to the fella.

I see the point being made here, he comes across a bit "I am it", but he ain't, wait rill you meet him (he'll be at the next blonde Bash & is a Circuit Regular) he's just one of the lads.

I know exactly what you mean Tikay. People can be misinterpreted when they write. For example, you seem like a decent bloke when you post on here....

Well behave then.
