DTD & blonde going places. Together.

[Solaris]

Haven't paid enough attention to 'The Rail' - seems I've missed out! Fantastic news in every sense of the world.

Well done to all involved.

[Ironside]

Excellent news for all involved: well done to Tighty & Tikay for getting this off the ground.

I want to get something in about Ironside saying he was working on the hoof, but feel it might be inappropriate, so I'll resist.

Please don't resist I am the first to make the jokes, at myself and others if I am fit enough to make the bash the newer members that haven't met me might understand me better

[taximan007]

Great news looking forward to the future

[The-Crow]

Sounds Great well done you guys.

Will there be reserved parking spaces for blondes at DTD

[Leatherman]

epic stuff..
already got pass for blonde bash..

 

[Fluence]

Wow, congrats on a great deal for Blonde.

I generally only come on here to follow the excellent live updates that Tighty and all the other updater's do, so it's a pity there will not be any from the GUKPT's in future (if I'm reading that right) but on the positive side there will be much more coverage of the DTD events. So that has to be good news.

Shame that your forum has to lose it's total independence/editorial freedom but with the running costs being what they are I understand. TBH I'd sell my granny for that sort of money.

Awesome.

Sounds like a great deal for Blonde. Well done.

Ps. You need to change the 'Card Room' link at the top of this page.

Couple of small questions/ comments

- DTD/ Blonde promotions, whats planned/ ideas?
- DTD League with 'money n teams' like the Luton one is a MUST pls pls pls!
- What about adding coaching threads/ boards? with DTD as a 'live' option thats something that could interest some..

1. Diary area. Was discussed publically a lot a year ago, decided against. That may change, its looked at a lot. For now it remains on the rail

2. 9 Deepstacks, 3 monte carlos, 4 grand prix's and another 8 events. (six maxes etc) so around 2 a month. Interviews with winners yes, good idea

3. to be advised

4. Again, no reason why we wouldn't do online leagues on DTD. On my list

5. Again, another good idea

Fantastic news

It was being at DTD on a day when Blonde were also having a bash there that got me here ( I joined APAT for the same reason on an earlier trip)

Can't believe I'm the first to point out that DTD obviously have a 'thing' for blondes as can be seen from the Bikini Freeroll winners for the CPP

Tighty answered most of those questions, but the one I highlighted I would comment further.

The "Luton League" was NOT an Online League, it was a "Live Poker League", based on the regulars at G-Luton.

The point being......it was run BY the players, FOR the players, & was better for being done like that, it was simply a "Community Thing" that the lads ran.

There is no reason why any DTD &/or blonde regular could not start a "DTD Live Poker" Thread & "Fantasy League" or anything else similar - but to my mind, the endearing nature of the G-Luton "player threads" (which are in the Top 10 Viewed Threads of all time on blonde) HAVE to be run by the players themselves - THAT is what makes them so popular, they are for the players, by the players.

The key is to have a clever thread starter, someone who writes well, devotes 10 minutes daily, & does the humour thing. At Luton, Tighty & Chompy between them come up with all the nicks, & it all adds to the fun. "British Gas", "Angry Greg Raymer", "40 year heater", etc. We now all know these guys by those names irl.

If someone started a DTD Live Poker League, & it has any legs (it will need to be constantly updated, well written, & humorous) we - blonde, DTD, or myself, will chuck in some added value, some prizes, to help rev it up.
