Very very veeery nice venue.  I expected something special, but it exceeded my expectations.  Like being set up on a blind date by your best mate who promises you a stunner, only to find Angelina Jolie waiting for you in a saucy black satin cocktail frock and look of wanton lust in her eye.  I sincerely apologise for turning up dressed like a tar-macker.

Adam you were very unlucky if u would have won that hand i think we would have split it lol well done mate

lol

no mate, I'd have won it and I'd have seen you off in 4th Wink

Last night the Valets were having a nightmare. The PDAs they use for transmitting orders to the bar / kitchen broke down aswell as the coffee machine dying. Simon explained the situation over the PA and asked for players to be patient with the girls who remained polite and friendly throughout all their problems.

That's the thing. Any problems that do arise, you KNOW they're teething problems and are going to get sorted out.

nobody wants to hear my AA v KK story from last night, but suffice to say, I got to sample some side action last night, rather than a record setting second consecutive final.

Was very impressed with DTD , decor is lovely and staff were great .

Nice meeting a few blondes i hadn't met before .

It went to a chip count on Thursday/Friday morning at 6am too.

I do think that the structure may need a bit of a tweak, maybe one level where the ante goes up instead of staying the same early on. I can't remember which level it was but no one went, not one player, it is a great structure but there was so much play the Thursday game nearly turned into a 2 day tourney  - we were given the option of coming back but both Chippie and I needed to go to work.

Already planning my next visit.  Grin

You could run out of superlatives (I ran out of expletives when my QQ was busted by 22) to describe this venue, it was awesome. Had a great time and will return...
