I remember being crammed round a 11 handed table playing a 150 rebuy
When all bar the late George geary was smoking. He had a huge fan though to battle the smoke off!
I sometimes get to the 2/2 DC game that runs twice a week there for a taste of the nostalgia

12 or 13 handed sometimes, too, though to be fair, the tables were HUGE. Most tables had 8 or 9 ashtrays on them too, amazing when you think of it.

Not sure I ever saw George - God bless his soul - without that fan, but I'm pretty sure he enjoyed a cigar when I first met him.

Who was that lad with the dreadful shirts who came down from Hull most nights?

Naps Sheffield had one particular dealer I always remember, a lass, barely 4' tall, hair usually tied back. She was only small but she had some lip on her when lads tried to mess about at the table.

if I knew Anna Medici was fit I'd be having a very large bet
I'm not backing her but she's everychance if fit by race time.

Wolfcatcherjack I'm not as confident on now, it's 5lbs wrong vs
Osbournes on future runnings.

Just had good bet on perla Blanca in the 5.10 Yarmouth 7/2
If this horse isn't running off mid 70s marks in the next few months I'll be
Very surprised

Not as I recall, no.

George's fan wasn't for keeping the smoke off him, he was a smoker himself.

If you look it was blowing toward him, not away.

How did you first ' discover ' on line poker ?
Where did you first play live / online site ?
Great tip yesterday thanks
Azine
Seeing my daughter born has always been the best night of my life
at 41 I had been a step dad twice which was good ,Steven n Robert were 5-7 when I met their mum ,they are in their 40s now ,I still have contact with one of them but they live in Worthing on the south coast so I don't see them much
It was the making of me tho ,it made me grow up ,we had some great times
my advice is to treat them all the same which I'm sure u will

I first discovered online poker by reading the poker europa magazine in napoloeans Sheffield where I first played live
I wanna say about 2001/2. £10 rebuys and £20rbs that magazine was everything to me, I'd read if from cover to cover
And idolise the Hendon mob, camel, Garry bush, Ali mallu, etc.. the first site I played on online was VCpoker (I liked the software best) about 2004
And met Moorman/pab/flushy/geeforce on their. In 2015 I was Moorman's best man, and been friends with flushy and pab for a good 11 years and always get on with GeForce wherever we meet. A great group to get a grounding in poker

We all lived for that magazine, even though it was, astonishingly, printed in 3 languages, so two thirds of it was repeated info we could not even read.

First thing I did was look inside the back cover to read El Blondie's column, then scanned the Results section. 7th place in a tenner rebuy and we had our name in a magazine, yay. 

Naps Sheffield was amazing, & when the big boys came up - Camel, Colclough, Bushy, Joe Beevers, Shipley, Julian or Dave Gardner, Jac Arama (!) etc, we thought it was just great.

Naps Sheffield (Owlerton) is still the only venue I've played in which had a 200 denom tournament chip, too. Mind you, all the chips would stick together, unriffleable, as they were so filthy.

I call!

Riffling schmiffling - I've never seen you riffle chips.

That back table at Naps where they used to play the final had the most polluted air imaginable when the room was full - it seemed like 80% of the players smoked.

You're correct about the fan Trigg - but George used to smoke gigantic cigars - it was mundane cigarette smoke he was fending off.
