Now I feel I can go to DTD and wear what I like without the fear of being called a chav, or the wife knowing where I "actually" am.
Thank you Rob
(of course I'm only kidding, love my fellow foxes supporter!)

Updates were great value read and bought faces to names you knew on here
We don't know what value they were against cost (viewing figures v outlay)
I sure miss Tightys subtle humour and expertise reporting
Correct, Trev. |

Correct, Trev. This should not even matter if we are offering to pay for them ? |

It is not a cost issue as previously stated

Why couldn't there be updates for the monthly deepstacks and at events that are solely DTD events (ie not stars or sky etc)?

there could be, but DTD have moved in a different direction as tikay explained at the beginning of the thread, and don't require them |

I completely understand that. I'm asking about DTD events like the deepstacks. Why does DTD need to "require" them for us (Blonde Poker) to go ahead with them ourselves if we fund them? |

I dont know the ins and outs, but its not just funding. DTD can stop updaters walking through the tables if they wanted. Its their club. At most events spectators arent allowed inbetween the playing tables. This is just an example but DTD did a lot for the updaters when blonde were actively updating there. |

I imagine statistics for new member sign-ups peaked around busy update weekends

Like almost everyone I miss the live updates.
Loved Tighty's style, always felt that I wanted to be there.
Real shame they cant be in place for the events not run for Stars, Sky etc.

Rob, if you're reading, the Blonde updates made people like me want to be there.
I've been trying to keep up to date with the GPS via their 'blog'. It's not very good.**
I tried watching the stream too but they appear to have recruited an aging club circuit comic with no knowledge of poker to talk over what's happening.
**understatement**

I'm a rec player and would always read the updates provided by tighty. They made me want to play at dtd and play the sats online for the deepstacks. With the live updates it made it feel like a big event for me. The urge to play the sats has gone and it disappeared around the time the updates disappeared. Coincidence? Probably not.

All of the above comments. Reading the updates/ comments made you feel like you were missing out on something, so you'd want to turn up during late reg/ a future day 1 to join the fun.

Never really thought about this but definitely true for me, can't remember the last time I made the drive up. Although it's obviously not that big of a demographic, I don't get very motivated to try and make it for the big 3rd party events but used to want to go and play the monthly and the monte carlo's there - often didn't make it but always wanted to. Things have moved on, nothing wrong with that and hopefully it's the right model for the club, because they deserve as much success in this field as anybody. |
