£50 between everyone? don't mean to sound callous, but seems like this grim has been treated very lightly compared to otheres

I am a big Boldie fan, when I met him he was a top guy and all the times I interacted with him on and off blonde he seemed like a top bloke so I'm just glad the good people of blonde have been so excellent with not pushing this and letting him get his life in order first.

That said, he definitely needs to resolve the debt issues with his stakers at some point so the question was definitely not an unfair one and could have been met with a better response.

Apologies if my replies come across as nasty because it's definitely not meant that way.  If I hadn't been quoted in the first place I wouldn't have replied at all, but I didn't want to ignore it when asked directly. 

In this case, individuals are owed significantly less than the other cases where there's uproar.  Most are owed £50 - £100 and would spend more than that on a night out.  Add Boldie's horrible breakdown into the mix and their attempts to get life back on track since, and I guess that's why there's not been as much uproar here. 

I absolutely agree with you and think he should resolve it at some point, but it's not me who owes the money so I can't give a better answer than that.  Anyone involved in the staking who would like to contact him is welcome to.  All I can do is hope he honours the debt when they're in a position to do so.


I really couldn't give a toss about the money, think I had £150 in it. I have met Boldie a few times and liked him and actually worked next in the same company as his wife for a while and thought we got on well also. When it all kicked off I was only concerned he get home safe etc. What did disappoint me a bit was that I noticed i had been un-friended on Facebook at that time.... but meh whatever I suppose.....

James Keys has been in the Far East. Now back and was playing DTD yesterday

Not aware that Roberto or Nik have gone anywhere. both visible on the circuit

Roland certainly plays less poker

I think he deleted nearly everybody from FB relating to poker whilst he sorted himself out...I'd do the same if I was ever in his position, less temptation.

How is Keys doing on Pokerstars recently?

I heard he has switched from cash games to playing a huge volume of tournaments.

I believe Roland only really plays big cash games at Les A.

What about Wazz?!? I remember he posted a ton of drivel (and bits of worthwhile stuff) in about a 2 week window where he said he wasn't doing it just to abuse the staking board. I also remember a few people defending him. Is he still posting?

There is a search bar in the top corner, guessing you must've missed it, type in wazz, press search, his username will come up multiple times, click on it, there is a feature "show the last posts of this person", click on it.

When I did it it came up with threads and posts he's made. If I was looking to find out if he was posting like you were, if the search feature failed me and I was aware he sold a package I'd have gone to the staking forum and found him via that route.

This thread is like a who's who on the forum when I joined. I was introduced to Blonde at the Blonde Bash @ Alea in Leeds back in 2009 - I still regularly read but don't contribute as much as I should. It was however my 30th b'day this weekend and my lovely Mrs. Beaver has surprised me with a 4 day trip to Vegas next week so expect a lot of questions over the next few days about what and where to play.

The general plan is to spin up what limited spare cash I have into a bigger amount of cash at the NL & PLO tables. Oh, and seeing Penn & Teller too... SCORE!!
