Hey Taximan, my time on there was the mid 2000's and was SMASHED on there. I became smashedagain probably about 2006/7 after a problem with my account. Obv recognise red dog, Jaffacake, marky n junior from those days but do often wonder what happened to wildrick,  plymlegend hitmanbull etc etc. does decision still crush like he did in them days Once they had fell out with action jack the site seemed to decline rapidly but the icing on the cake for me was being asked not to use the wife's shop to withdraw my money ( like it was ever really gonna be a problem and just showed what an anal company it had become ). Making the leaderboards was a formality but my biggest regret was not winning the "whose the daddy". I had been approached about applying to join bad beat but politely declined and often used to get asked if I was related to Richard Herbert ( we are only became mates a few years ago). Wow poker girl , the salmon , sonnertt true pioneers of the game but obv a playing in a different universe.


I used to fall out almost every night  but never during the day with a player on there called raggster2 ( not raggster, a different guy altogether and seemed like a good egg)  and I was pretty sure if we ever met we would kill one another. Well 2 years ago I was in Coventry at poss gukpt or ukipt and got talking with the lad next to me who was no more than 20. Anyway the conversation got round to laddies and key board warriors and this guy raggster 2. Well this lads face just dropped like he had seen a ghost and he told me he was Raggster 2 and I just laughed because he obviously was too young to be him. He told me that at the time he was 14 or 15 and his dad had actually deposited money on there for him to play.

Think we could say yes

What days they were

I used to withdraw from the shop too as I never had a bank account for a few years when I first started playing properly on Ladbrokes

Wildrick was working for Pokerisk last I heard and still doing ok as far as I'm aware.

Plymlegend posts regularly on our forum and has just got back from a mini Cos like break to Thailand with all his mate. The blogging of their trip was a  bit NSFW compared to our own policeman's though and included some fun with the girls lookers in those pics Woodsey posted

Not sure about hitmanbull as I never really spoke to him unless he was playing at my table unlike the other two guys.

Used to talk to Jon Hansmeyer (Decision) a fair bit on msn but not seen him signed in for ages and he's gone from Facebook too but I'm sure he's still doing alright for himself wherever he is.

I remember I lost HU in the Daddy comp and was absolutely gutted for weeks, when I told my mates I'd won $16k in a poker tournament they couldn't work out how I was gutted

I was thinking you might have been thinking about Rugster1 that you used to row with as he used to be a bit lively in the chatbox too

Jason, i do not know you at all, but you be little'd my m8 who is a lot younger than you! You hendon mob'd him at the table, and announced it at the table .At the end of the day you have have been playing for for many years  and have a very few flags incomaprison!!!!! Really who do you think you are?  you think you are some sort of legend !!! but in reality you are some sort of ken barlow of the poker world !!!!!!! gg nh wp lego head

Everyone is a lot younger than me usually and i like that ken barlow of poker and will use it. Tell him I'm sorry if he felt uncomfortable with it and  be little'd as that was my intention. In all honesty  if I hendonmobed him I would have done it prior to sitting down because I could never get any wifi connection. I used that hendonmob joke 3 times over the last 2 days and and picked on seat 5 each time but as you know the hendonmob is no measure of success. One of the guys was Iqbal who finished 2nd and i proper gave him both barrels to encourage him to double me up so think it may have been a geordie lad. If you wanna pm me his name I will make sure i will appologise to him in person. The other lad o did it too was a friend of Jamie O'conners but doubt it was him because although at the time he wanted to kill me he was later grateful i went 40 miles out of my way to give him a lift home and turned out to be great company on the way home . Good for you that uou wanna stick up for your mates, and thats a quality that i admire. Some of my closest friends in poker have had me take the piss out of them the first time I met them and it all turned out cool

[istrabraq]

Lol could just picture herbie I'n Ken barlow cardigans lol

[smashedagain]

Lol cardigans. Won't be playing in anything other than those mickey mouse hoodies from now on. No matter how well or bad I play, those hoodies are good for results so at the risk of looking a prick I'm gonna have to keep wearing em.
 
As for online poker Marky I have fond memories of those days but would never wish to return to playing 8 hour days and now only play online when I need to win cheap seats into comps. The game has moved on beyond all recognition and I have had the opportunity to watch at first hand some of the best uk online players during their usual Sunday grind and tbh I think I would prefer a job on the checkout at tesco scanning beans all day

Yeah wildrick was awesome. He would be muti tabling and still have time to run hangman comps in the chat box lol

Yeah memory is terrible and cloudy. Rugster1 is a young Asian lad and it was very weird meeting him. It still makes me smile now

[taximan007]

yes, I was taximan007, there were a few 'taximan' playing

I started playing 2003/4 and the highlight was obviously qualifying for the 2004 cruise (1st one), I recognise all the names you mention and of course there were a lot more, although got to be honest and say I don't recognise yours.

A couple of othere were RACH (a guy) and starmac2004 both whom I got to meet at Torquay Casino

I had some great times on Laddies and made many good friends (most i have never met).

One of the top people was without doubt Micky147 (Marky's dad) I met Micky and Lizzie on the cruise and following on from that he ran some tournaments at his snooker club of which he was kind enough to invite me to, a real Genleman in all senses.

Such good memories....................

I think I was on that Cruise, too - was it the one where there was a godawful storm on the first night @ sea, & everyone was spewing @ the tables? Literally.
