Who have the previous winners Tighty? Has blonde team done any good

blonde team has never done anything no

Gambling Network forum won it this time last year


Team spirit is crucial in these. The winning teams tend to be very close, encourage each other, stick around if they get knocked out etc etc

Typically you need 2 of your 8 to make the final table. Do that, and you should win (pending any change in the scoring for this year I am unaware of)

Remember the one a good few years back.  We all stuck around after we'd been knocked out, waiting for the others.  Didn't have to wait long though.  Sheriff was the first one out, with a flopped set of kings against a flopped set of aces (easy fold Wink), and the rest of us didn't last much longer.

Hopefully Bedi's Bhoys do better this time round.

2 seasons ago we were favourites with 60 left in the tournament, as we still had 6 players in.. within 20 mins we were down to 2! Blonde are surely due to some run good in this!

That Saturday night was probably one of my highlights from a social side of things, remembering MickyP deciding to put his foot over my head at some ridic time in the morning!

That was three seasons ago in Manchester it was my first apat tournament. Now THAT was a proper Blonde team complete with team spirit and everything. Made up of regular members and posters another team with a similar dynamic would do well imho

Thought it was the last tourny of season 4 as there was a fair gap between that and the start of season 5.

Last one of Season 3. There was not a very big gap at all in that one as I remember. Season 3 ended in Manchester in Jan. Season 4 started in Swansea towards the end of March. Team Championship in season 4 was in Bolton.

Hi all- this has been a tough call. I've tried to pick a team which will play with enthusiasm and spirit and offer the best chance for the win. All applications were really well written and it's a pity we can't have two teams. After much deliberation the team to represent blonde is:

George2loose
Celtic
Stato1
Claw75
Bigfella
Claypole
Sharplea
Rod

I'll be in touch with all team members re shirts etc. Also re where we're planning on staying (to those who aren't local)

That's a pretty strong team there with a smattering of full-time poker players included.

Looking forward to the event even more now.
