Wow, terrific stuff Joe. We would ALL echo action man's comments abot Joe.

He certainly did - officially second for $244K, but apparently a deal was done so presumably much more.  Well done Joe!

nice one joe!
can you make it back to luton in time tho?

[I KNOW IT]

Wonder if anyone tried to hit him with a chair at the Bellagio? 

[tikay]

WELL DONE JOE.

I am delighted for you, & it's a well deserved monster payday.

[Card_Shark]

don't see any need for that at all, please keep your comments to yourself.

[I KNOW IT]

It was meant as a joke ,nothing more, lighten up.
We all know the chairs at the Bellagio are too heavy to pick up

[tikay]

I have removed the grossly offensive post by "Grech the Letch", who is someone posing as Joe. blonde does not permit mischievious posters to pose as others & make offensive comments behnd the screen of anonymity.

Please ensure there are no further posts of this nature. If "Grech the Letch" persists, suitable steps will be taken to prevent further such behaviour.

The blonde partners, & all the blondeites, are proud of our little Forum. It's a good place to exchange news, views, & banter, and we intend to keep it that way.

I hope I speak for all blondeites in taking this action.

[tikay]

To "I Know It". A misunderstanding has arisen here. Card Shark was NOT responding to YOU, but to a deeply offensive post made by someone posing as Joe Grech. I have just removed the post, hence the misunderstanding between you & Card Shark.

[I KNOW IT]

Thanks Tikay for that, you know its unlike me to offend anyone .  Good luck in Luton main event if you are playing. Hope to see you at Walsall 100 freeze out if you are out.

[tikay]

Thanks Craig! It was an odd misunderstanding, you & Card Shark are respected blondeites, & I just needed you both to be aware of what had happened.

OK, off to Luton now! Let's hope I am not on Update Duty too early.......

Greg Raymer is the chip leader at the end of level 3 with 195k. Englishman Joe Grech is second with 175k.





When you get used to the Blonde updates it's unreal that you can't get much on a major event like this !!
