we will just be an additional venue, in a market that is already becoming flooded IMO.
Isn't the idea to prove demand?
Keep going, it's not that much longer now

2nd July 2007 - 12 Weeks To Go..........................

Time is flying by, I can't believe we are only 12 weeks away from the magistrate's hearing, we have collected most of our evidence which we must submit 50 days before the 24th September.
I have been slightly diverted away from DTD due to some key developments in my other businesses and Nick has been holding the fort on the DTD front for the last couple of months. To be honest, there is not a lot we can do, apart from preparing our case, its just a waiting game.
I've had no luck in getting the objectors to drop their cases, and I doubt whether this situation will change. Frustrating as this is, I think destiny dictates that this case is heard out in full and won or lost in full battle. On one side we have 3 of the most powerful casino groups in the UK, on the other there is DTD - haha - what a contest, you gotta not like our odds when you look at power and influence that we are up against........but if I were a betting person (lol) I would honestly still back us at odds-on to win.
We had a key development last week which I would like to post here, but unfortunatley I cannot, as I know the casinos read my thread and I don't to give them any scraps. I believe it to me the most important swing in DTD's favour since our case was adjourned, and something that will make a mockery of any decision against us.
I have to admit, these delays have caused us is a loss in momentum, severe financial costs and a lot of extra legwork preparing for the hearing, maybe this alone is justifiable to the casinos for their actions.
I went to the Dentist yesterday, one of the receptionists who I have never met before asked my when the club was opening as she and her husband love watching poker on TV...........there is nowhere to hide, its amazing how much interest there is is Dusk Till Dawn, everyone seems to know about it, I just hope we can win the hearing, for all these people as well as DTD, and of course to show the casinos that they should think twice before stamping on the little guy.
I decided to give the WSOP Vegas a miss this year, my mind is not on playing poker at the moment, some of the DTD guys are over there and I have bought % of a few people so I can follow the main event with interest. You never know, if one of them makes the final table, it may get me "out of it" - haha
I played the DTD £25 "hunt the pros" last night, I was so unlucky, hit my Gutshot V a full house (i never noticed the board had paired) and then Nick knocked me out with his KJoff v my JJ (if he is that desperate for the £100 bounty on my head then good luck to him). I like comps like this, plenty of bantor and playing people you actually know, rather than names in cyberspace, I hope this kind of stuff really takes off when/if the live club opens, its fun.
Cheers Rob

The figures do not surprise me Rob.
A surprisingly large number of folks do not sign up to blonde, but just view as Guests.
Everywhere I go, too, I get asked "when is that DTD place opening"? It really is astonishing how many folks seem to read this thread. Long may it last.
