And now the Team captain                                              Mr.   Sharplea

Hi Captain can you answer a few Questions

How long have you been playing poker ?                            Since October 2005

Which sites do you play on                          Blonde, Blue Square, Stars, Sky. Occasionally play on Full Tilt and Boss

Do you play live at pubs, clubs or Casinos                    Anywhere I can find a decent game!

Had any big wins this year

 3rd in the Stars deepstack for not much. A big win to me isn't about the money, it's whether I've played well or not, and I was really happy with the way I played in that one.

Do you play every day                                                  Yeah, I'm a poker addict!

Where did you go on holiday this year                 I'm hopefully going to Vegas in November...

How many miles a week do you drive                                      No licence!

Do you prefer on line or Live                      I don't have a preference really, they both have their pros and cons!

Who's your favorite Poker Pro               I don't have a favourite per se. I admire a lot of players, most notably Negreanu and Roberto Romanello.

Ever played a Poker Pro, like Aces or Devilfish                             I've played John Kabbaj heads-up.

Whats your favorite restaurant    ,French, Italian, mongolian rat take aways, or Chinese                      Chinese!

Does your wife/partner play poker                                   She does.

Can I print this on the Blonde web site                   Go ahead, everyone else has!

Thanks   No probs mate Smiley

[The-Crow]

Now a newbie called                                      Smileriraq

How long have you been playing poker ?
 Dec 2004 - was in iraq one of the section brought in bagfuls of worthless iraqi coins and we had some time to kill - and one of the section taught us the rules. Have to admit if I went out there again not sure if id make 6 months with no poker. When I came back to UK all my mates were playing it
Which sites do you play on?                            Blonde and Ladbrokes

Do you play live at pubs, clubs or Casinos?
Occasional live play and have done well in a few casino MTT but with a young baby and a really hectic social lifereally dont have that much time to invest

Had any big wins this year.
 Won a freeroll on Ladbrokes 734 runners and got £130 came 4th in a similar tournament and won £85 also won a poker player freeroll and got invited to a final SNG table but only managed to come 5th not going to change my lifestyle but its nice to be consistently making a profit. Grinded my wy to £1000 play low stakes SNG

Do you play every day.
 Most days however try not to play on sunday 1) as try to respect sundays for belief reasons 2) its good to have a day away from poker 3) Allows me to have time with the family and also to watch the NFL

Where did you go on holiday this year.
 Nowhere this year but with young baby not fair to drag him hundreds of miles on a plane. We did have a weekend break in west wales tho

How many miles a week do you drive                       less than 70

Do you prefer on line or Live
 I like both but am probably better online but welcome the opportunity to test myself live

Who's your favorite Poker Pro.
 Like Negranu despite he sometimes comes across as a bit snobbish over amateurs doing well in the big events. Dislike ego trippers such as hellmuth but im fairly sure thats mostly an act to keep him in the limelight

Ever played a Poker Pro, like Aces or Devilfish.
If i have i didnt know it , i dont swim in those circles, quite happy being a bottom feeder at the bottom of the ocean

Whats your favorite restaurant,French, Horse ,Crispy camal, Chinese 0r Indian.
 Wifes cooking is top notch

Is there a Torchwood base in Cardiff.
 My dad runs a shopping centre in Cardiff and met David Tennant apparently he was a bit of a dick (wouldnt talk to a young kid while waiting for an elevator)

Does your wife/partner play poker.
 Wife plays poker but she doesnt really understand the subtlties of bluffing and pot odds etc

Can I print this on the Blonde web site              No worries tho not sure who would want to read my ramblings but go for it

Hi Del back so soon,

Hi, just remembered

When I first found Blonde there seemed to be a few friends talking about poker. for some reason it was the only forum I joined, at the time (early 2005)

I was really in awe of everone on here, I thought they were all big time pros!!!!

I remember, back in early 2005, playing a $3 SnG on Tribecca, and on the table was Colchester Kev. We talked about blonde a bit, and then about his upcoming trip to Vegas. A big hand developed between me and another player that I won, and Kev said how well I played it. I was so chuffed that a big time pro like him would complement me....

....It never crossed my mind that maybe a big time pro wouldn't be bothering with a $3 SnG

Still, made my day though..

Hope you enjoy blonde as much as I have Crow

Cheers Del

Gotta ask this m8,

why are you called "ShatnerPants", hope its a star trek answer

Totally pinched from the great man, I admit.

A couple of months ago he did an interview on Chris Moyles radio show, and they were talking about products he could endorse, as a joke.

Shatnerpants were just such a brilliant idea, I want to market them.

When I say Hong, you say Kong

HONG..........

[maccol]

The "Hot-o-meter" on Sky is a piece of nonsense.
Anyone who uses it to play poker deserves to lose their cash

Now from the man who thinks he's a train                 Xpressman

How long have you been playing poker ?                 Well it seems a lifetime but i started playing in 2002.

Which sites do you play on                                     Ladbrokes & Poker stars

Do you play live at pubs, clubs or Casinos                  I play at The G Casino Luton, The Vic (London), and The Western.
 
Had any big wins this year                                      Not yet , but i am sure one will come soon

Do you play every day                 No , but it feels like it, i have played a lot of poker since i started playing back in 2002 !

Where did you go on holiday this year                              South Of France

How many miles a week do you drive                 200 - 250 mainly to play poker as i live near my business.

Do you prefer on line or Live

Live without a doubt, love the banter and Atmosphere and watching the players reactions in certain situations gives you a big Advantage, also met a lot of Nice people via poker, some whom have become good friends off the tables.
I do get very bored playing on line and seem to play a much looser and less disiplined compared to my live game.

Who's your favorite Poker Pro           Hard one this -

But like a lot of people loved watching the Original series of Late night poker, so The Hendon Mob Players stand out especially Ram Vaswani who I think is one of the best, and Devilfish whether you love him or hate him certainly helped in putting poker on the map.

Special mention to Garry Bush who gave me a lot of good advice and improved my game.

JP Kelly a luton legend- The Guy is Awesome, Does not play much live these days but mainly on Line.

And of course Tikay !! Who has put a lot of time and effort into the game for the players and he always plays with a smile whether Winning or Losing !!
He gets Aces more times than most players as he always shows them after someone lays down - By turning the same card over twice and saying "Look Ace and a Ace"  LOL LOL

Ever played a Poker Pro, like Aces or Devilfish

Both of the above at The Victoria casino in Larger Comps and many other full Time Players/Professionals.

Whats your favorite restaurant,French,Bland English ,Welsh leek Pie, Haggis meatballs, 0r Indian

Always loved Italian but do like French,Chinese, and Mexican.

Does your wife/partner play poker

Not married and do not have a Live in partner , but my Secret Mystery Lady does not play Poker !!

Can I print this on the Blonde web site

If you Must !!! Lol

Thanks, Xpressman


Thanks , good answers,gold Star
