The week as we saw it

One from the personal collection.
Screamed like a 4 year old when they put it back in, not helped by the fact I "soldiered on" for 36 hours in denial (and much pain).

Recent ?

Not entirely sure, I'm not generally a plaque man, I'm more into 25p chips, but I believe they were worth £1,000 each.

The pot was - I'm told - £40,000, & the 2 hands were something like 4-4 & A-3.

Ian must be sitting in Rob's seat , although Rob always likes seat 1 , so I guess Ian has "borrowed" a few plaques for a
photo opportunity.

Looks like over 40k to me , the plaques are 1k each.

The only other explanation is that it's Ian's winnings , nah , getting silly now.

I honestly have no idea if it is true, but I was told it was by one or two at DTD.

Would love to know how the hand played out.

Genuine photo

4 or 5 ways to a flop in a raised pot.

    

Ian can't remember the betting but all hell breaks loose and three stacks are in the middle. Ian had middle set Vs. a flush draw w/gutter Vs. a flopped straight and pinged a Barry (Ace) on the river.

He is now in Whistler for 10 days on a work trip so it's not all roses....

Mr Cameron will only debate the once

A year ago today, a giant passenger aircraft simply disappeared. The combined efforts of many Governments have failed to find any trace whatsoever.






There have been more conspiracy theories than enough, but I think we can reasonably rule out this one though.

Scotland finally win summat

I was gutted there wasn't a betting market this year on it. The Best in Show Judge is a big terrier breeder and the terrier group was very strong this year. Anything over even money would have been a steal.

Sadly, not even Ladbrokes had a market up this year.

Also, I think the handler is American and the dog lives in Russia.
