but thats not the point. we all know dtd is best poker venue in europe, if i want a glass of water i have to sit out of hands. thats what is being said. i like have a glass every now and then
No you don't. Go to the bar during the break.
Bar is rammed during the break and why should the bar staff serve my water when there are paying customers around! Its pretty much the same thing.
D/w i'll just bring my own bottle next time. Problem solved.
Excuse me rfgqqabc. Is your name Adam Picken?
Yes sir. I don't want to be in the naughty corner though

Most of the bets placed so far seem more like hopeful punts rather than value spots

Just read the above and then repeat the question "what the fuck is rake for?"
Hope that helps.
I just don't think getting a glass of tap water at the table is that much of a problem. I understand its not very cost/time effective, but when I've paid to play a tournament I want to play, not go to the bar for tap water. I've messaged Rob as it appears he wants a word with me, and if you want to pm as well thats cool, because I really don't feel like discussing this anymore. I fail to believe this is that big of a deal, and everyone at the table yesterday was gobsmacked. Literally every other tournament series around would provide water here, and I tend to expect above and beyond from DTD, I don't like paying for my tea when I wouldn't have to at a GPS, but I can understand that as a financial decision, however, refusing tap water because a valet would have to walk to the bar is a bit shitty as far as I'm concerned. I've paid my rake to play in the tournament and would like to play. If I'm really missing something that big, please tell me, but don't treat me like an idiot, when Rob commented I sent my mate a message saying I think I'm in trouble here, and the first thing he picked up on was your tone. I admit mine in previous posts isn't exactly ideal, but I don't think I treated you like a total idiot either, and regardless of your intention, that is how your post has come across to me. I will be doing my best not to respond in this thread further, and have messaged Rob in order to prevent this further. I'm somewhat lost as to how people think this is an issue, I genuinely thought it was a mistake from the valet, and to find out it is club policy surprised me greatly, I think if I'd posted on any other poker form everyone would agree with me, and the few people I have checked with (to make sure I wasn't completely ool) said they agreed with me. If this is club policy I'll be pretty upset to see a named player get tap water for free, but I guess bottled is a preference to some people, so its all good. FWIW bottled water is horrible environmentally and cost wise, but that is another issue completely.

Well done DTD. Massive success in getting so many runners for a sat. Just incred.
On the bottled water issue....just do what the vic and aspers do and have a few large jugs of water and some plastic cups in a couple of places at DTD. Then no waiting at the bar, shouldn't take more than a minute of your time. Most times you wouldn't even miss a hand.

Adam, if you keep drinking this water, will you need to ask the valets to take you to the toilet too?

Not sure it'll be an issue now mate, think I'll be stuck with the piss bottle at the side of my laptop sigh. Gl with MC, what did you have when i folded the 54? I forgot to ask? Other guy had 76, pretty tilting hand now.

Would be a huge shame if Adam did get banned from the site/club, so so good stuff gets said about DTD here so it's sad if we can't be a little neutral.
As I would say a friend of Adam's and I could be seen to be in his side, I think the argument is a little weak and just paying for a bottled water is fine, the Valets are obviously super busy and with respect to GUKPT, DTD usually have 3x as many people in there and these are pretty girls dressed relatively sexily, not old timers in trousers and jumpers!
Breaks are there for a reason and you should be able to be sorted really, and even if not its a total level playing field really.
Anyway, thats not really the point and I hope you guys can sort this out.
BTW Just having water machines or something near by would sound like a v good idea.
edit: who even drinks tap water? #nits #punishthenits #savepicken #plsrob

Yh, Adam is a very nice kid and would be a shame for him to get banned over something utterly trivial.
+1 to pleno, just buy bottled water you shameful nits!

I actually thought it was a wind up, and was surprised to see what entailed over the following 4 pages when I read them earlier.

Not sure what situation is regarding the water, but I can see Adam's point regarding the bar queues at the break, they are huge, but you kinda expect it. But it only takes a couple of minutes to walk to bar and ask yourself when it's empty, do not sure why it's turned into this.
PS - I had
