blonde & Patrick Murray - a Clarification

[MANTIS01]

I have always found the people connected with Blonde to be perfect professionals. The presence of Blonde at these events certainly adds something special in my opinion.

Another big attraction of festival poker for me is the sense of community therein. It was fantastic that a few of us Walsall boys took on the best when they rolled into town and held our own. The best in this instance included a number of Blondes who all played hard but fair. RED-DOG was at my table throughout, he was a knowledgable chap and conducted himself like a real gentleman. NoFlopsHomer also seemed like a top-man.

When you are involved in a community, especially one within the high-pressure world of tournament poker a bit of banter lightens the load. As far as I can see the ever-entertaining coverage we as members get from these events is something to embrace. A sometime dry comment often means endearment rather than criticism when part of such a family.

Well I watch a hell of a lot of poker on TV as well as following the updates since I've been on the site. Who's Patrick Murray?

And if anyone sees the posts on the live updates as nothing but entertaining then they're looking at them for all the wrong reasons

[Tonji]

Dana is  she's slotted in with all the other updaters wonderfully. All there coverage is exceptional. Simply the best.

I once had Tikay on my table in Southampton couldn't get the man to shut up...........

Nobody is nice all the time and we are all affected by outside influences.........as people go Tikay in my experiences is rock solid. nuff said

Dana keep reporting as you see it. You see it okay to me

hey patrick,

it's norman pace here. as a minor tv celeb of the 80's myself, i am perhaps the only person on this forum, apart from m. greco who can fully understand the position from your point of view.

on this forum, my personal stature has been pilloried (a lanky 5'7"), it has been suggested that i used to be funny, and more to the point, various members of blonde truly believe that i think there are five 5's in a pack of cards. in summary that i am short, boring and stupid.

we faded, washed out, former somebodies are easy targets for the well educated, erudite and gifted updaters who scape a living by working their fingers to the bone at the coalface of poker.

to show how i feel about your treatment on this site, i promise that i will read this forum everyday, post when so moved and attend blonde bashes. that'll show 'em

i wish to remain anonymous. (please watch sky poker tonight. ch 846)

Mickey Pearce,  I think.    What is the name of the chracter who said to Rodney  " Hi Dave ".  Is that Mickey?    I was never a big watcher of TV shows

Sark I think you are getting him confused with Roger Lloyd Pack who plays trigger he's actually quite a good actor.

[Sark79]

Right,  thanks mate.  I need to watch more British TV shows I think  .  I only really know the two main characters Dellboy and Rodney,  oh and the guy who played Boycie.

A scandalous accusation, which I very much doubt came from anyone connected with this forum.

The big guy, with the tache on the other hand.......

I think I've worked this one out Tony.

Firstly, Johnny and Patrick noticed that the updaters had given them some free advertising on the site by mentioning the shirt.

Then Johnny puts Patrick up to complain about the updating, so that you re-post the link and they get some more free advertising.

All publicity is good publicity.....Brilliant !

Ian.

lol class!

 In the late 80s I ran a restaurant/bar in Shepherds Bush that used to do the" end of series" parties for Fools and Horses.
 It was the one time of year when the regular staff were given the night off and the place was staffed " by star spotting friends" for free !!

Only read the first few posts of this thread and had to click reply immediately- I'm sorry but my first thought is who the fk do you think you are. You are in our world now and on here everybody gets the piss taken out of them. The thread in question I was reading live and rooting for tom and womble and in no way was dana being disrespectful to you. If you gonna get all touchy about the comments made in that thread then poker isn't for you as you will get far more over the table. Your sponsor JT is a master of rubdowns and pisstaking at the felt so ffs don't be so touchy ( I have been on the recieving end of some of JT's comments and he can make even a diehard speachplay expert like myself feel uncomfortable). Tikay gets more stick than anyone on here with him being an old fart and other "minor" celebrities like Norm Pace (the short one who used to have a funny partner) and "beppe" take it in their stride so why can't you? If you gonna survive in the poker world you gonna have to get a thicker skin imo. I would assume you didnt speak to JT before taking offence here as he would've told you not to be such a mard arse- all the bloody same these soft southern fairies.

Dana keep up the good work please girl and don't let him stop doing what 99.999999% of the forum like, feel free to rip me to shreds at this weekends poker6 and I promise to not sulk or throw a strop because you've refered to me as bald/fat/noisy/ugly/etc etc etc.

Just read the rest of the thread and good to see most agree with my sentiments but probably say it a little more diplomatically than me. Good to see that shortarse norm got in on the act and I have to say what a great way to plunge another plug for skypoker in- the guy is a real pro loool.
