[Snatiramas]

Dear League Elders.

Having raided the kids moneyboxes I realise that I have enough money for the freeroll at 2pm. How are points awarded for this valuetastic tourney.

[X] There sure are points on offer for the freeroll

Bah ....Humbug.... no Xmas Japeamonts for Snatty

I think one might need to be Christian to feel bah humbug about anything....... I suffer from a different religion. To all my friends from the G I wish you well over the holiday periiod and a Happy New Year.  I would like to say that we do have a traditional meal on Xmas Day. Salt beef and Potato Latkes. Loads of family. Lots of laughter. I love this time of year.

Top Ten 2009 Luton Nicknames

1. SIR DONKSALOT

(Natural habitat - Enfield Municipal Sauna)
(Latin names - Hannus Montanus, Chirpus Muchus, Floatus Rimmus)

Before he joined the Girl Guides in the autumn of 2009, Sir Donksalot had become one of the hottest properties in Luton, leaving behind an abysmal start to the campaign with a string of luckbox victories.
During the win spree, which earned him the moniker MDD Jnr in certain quarters, Sir Donksalot not only eased he's relegation fears but eventually usurped the Racing Post-nominated Best Player In Luton in the now-infamous Clown Stakes.
Other notable cashes have included when not winning APAT last autumn and when not beating cult figure Nick Salad heads up after finding aces 23 times in a donkament last summer.
The year 2010 promises much for Sir Donksalot, who's high on most lists of professional judges' players to follow and in more than his share of Fantasy Poker teams. Expect to hear some loud chirping once the weather warms up in the spring and he comes out of his cardboard box.

2. BRITISH GAS

(Natural habitat - Cash tables from 9pm)
(Latin names - Donkus Quickus, Rankus Goateyus)

British Gas burst on to the domestic scene in the summer, baffling the established Luton folk with a heady mix of fearless aggression and guesswork.
A quieter end to the campaign led to British Gas trying different styles of play and fashion, including attending the G dressed as a funeral director, growing a tez goatey and latterly donning Princess Leia headphones (although fortunately not the gold bikini to go with them).
Despite threatening to take a break from the game as a result of ‘running bad’, British Gas remains one to watch closely in 2010.

3. SNITCHY

(Natural habitat - C&A, Threshers)
(Latin name - Flippus Floppus)

2009 was the year that saw Snitchy Glenn not only improve his game in leaps and bounds but also strike up a memorable comedy double act with veteran performer MDD (see entry no.4).
Despite a shambolic fashion display in Juuune, when opting to wear flip flops and that hoopy Grace Bros t-shirt for his WSOP debut, Snitchy Glenn has now become an established force at the G, latterly wrongly proclaiming himself to be the Best Player In Luton at other venues.
While a £4m Fantasy Poker price tag may seem excessive, Snitchy Glenn has improved to such a degree that he is now offering one-on-one tuition. He remains one to keep on the right side for 2010.

More to follow...

You're a v v funny man Chomp. Big big up yours to you for fostering a real community spirit while we try to have it away with each others chips.  A most pleasing years poker and japes imo. There are few legends here, TV legend Tony Kendall is one and you're the other. VWP in 2009 sir.

Phil:... do u do the pressie thing?  I know a lot of Jewish people who do...

We don't do the pressie thing on Xmas day. We do it on Chanukah which lasts for 8 days and happens at the start of Dec. It has never been a problem with the kids. They have been brought up to understand that we have our festivals and other religions have theirs. They have been encouraged to gain an understanding of other religions and to be tolerant of other peoples religious beliefs. IMHO religion only gets to be a problem when somebody turns round and says my way is right and your way is wrong. I prefer my way is right for me.

anyway have a great time all
