Oh, and if an Anon finals these days at DTD with finals live streamed...the whole Anon thing is pointless as he or she will be there for all to see

It all seems rather pointless in the age of Hendonmob/google anyway.

I presume the names would come up on the live stream too?

faces would, for sure.....

I understand that it will all come out if an Anon reahces FT, but isn't the whole point of them being "Anon" being unknown to no quantity, rather than someone having an iffy image of someone it could be?

"Anon with dodgy shirt"

MUST BE JASON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wink Smiley

No one will have a clue who it is

There are hundreds of local DTD players there several times a week, or most weekends when I am there

A quick additional description helps me to distinguish between different Anons, and aids the reader understand (many of whom read the update in the days afterwards) how a big stacked Anon, for example, accumulates a stack as per last night

Quite often I am reporting on several Anons if they are in key hands I notice. I have to report that in a way that doesn't confuse people

eg Anon doubles up with AK v QQ v Peejay ,  ten minutes later Anon loses KK v QQ v George2loose

Same Anon, different Anon?

Tighty's job is hard enough as it is, I think we have to leave it to his judgement.

Strictly speaking, legally if you like, I would think he can report any name he so wishes, it's "in the domain". A footballer can't play a match with "Anon" on his shirt. He puts himself in the public eye, & has to live with the consequences.

But he doesn't pay for the right to Play.

The main thing is it can piss dtd off if 5 high volume punters, I guess they probably play jj and rollers get put off
Because neon anon means half anon when blonde update and they will lose income ", as simple as that really.

There has only ever been one occasion when an Anon punter has been pissed off, and on that occasion I was threatened with being kneecapped outside (seriously) if I even mentioned any hand this Anon was involved in, so he was pissed off even before I was tempted to take the piss out of him!

I've kept countless confidences as to why people are Anon, the blonde updates have never cost DTD revenue and never would

As I say a brief description sometimes aids the updates. "Local Anon" is about as generic as it gets, and no one has a clue who it is.

Yesterday an Anon finished second in chips too. No description for him but come Sunday when two Anons begin play with at least double average stacks then if they both go deep they'll need a little differentiating description even if is Local and Non Local Anon otherwise the updates become unfathomable

Having not finalled a dtd big tournament since the introduction of the streamed final tables..

do you have to sign something prior to sitting? because I've never signed a 'pokerstars' style media acceptance form at dtd and don't remember an email with changed tnc's... but i could easily have not remembered one even if I was sent it four times..

so what would happen if someone needed to stay anon and finalled?

There is a massive difference between having your face on a live stream and having your name on the website.

If an employer (etc) puts your name into Google, that will pop up. How many anti-poker employers are watching the live stream?

Recruitment agencies warn people about what they have on their Facebook page that is accessible to friends or friends of friends. If someone you know got you the interview and their boss is the one interviewing you, they might see that picture of you snorting what you later learned to be talcum powder from Eduardo's rippled abs on a hotel bathroom floor in Marbella.

I really really want to post on this thread. I want to post so much it is physically hurting me. The consequences however will hurt me more, similar to Tighty's knee capping tale. So I won't.


But F me I want to.
