OMG, I didn't know, I could have popped in for a "coffee"
That is NOT what I meant Mr! lol
Down boy and again Naughty doggie!
That's not what I meant either. How very dare you!!!
I just did! lol
What did you mean by "coffee" then? I take it my penchant for Cappuccino has reached far and wide now???

Thx guys. Your appreciation is appreciated.
The payout's still need a little work, for when we get more than 130 players. But its def getting there.
IFM, I couldn't blieve they cut a deal. Made me want to stop doing 2 day events and give long clocks and chips to people. Perhaps a 30 minute crap shoot would be better appreciated by the locals.
Green Fox........... its what we always discussed. Don't propose it at The Broadway, just implement it. HEHEHEHEHE. Won't make you any more popular like.
ANd Vinni. There is no I in Clare. She gets very angry about it.Fickle lady.
She is on holiday but ill send her all your puppy wishes.

Z Aslam £9800 23%

Boycie £5000 11.5%
Ming £5000 11.5%
Ash £4800 11%
Dunwoodie £3410 8%

Hi chaos, & welcome to blonde.
This thread is about the Grosvenor Sandcastle, on the Promenade, opposite the Pleasure Beach.
They play Texas Hld 'Em most nights - why not pop down there & take a look? Yogi & his team will look after you. But steer clear of the cash games - the locals are all as loopy as loopy things.

Did Vinni REALLY say that? Wow, things have changed around here. He used to apologise if he did NOT offend anyone.

Blackpool players are pussies, they always want to do 7,8 and 9 way deals. It's pathetic. Next thing you know they'll be splitting it with 30 players left.
Come on lads, Danny's made a good prize structure. Let's play it out like men.

1). The "deal" that Yogi outlined in fact looks most sensible to me. The winner gtting almost 25% of the pool, & all the Finalists getting a decent draw. That's what THEY wanted, & I believe it reflects what many people want - FLATTER STRUCTURES. You CANNOT argue about the case on the night in question, as ALL the Finalists must have agreed to the deal. Thus, we can see that, never mind all the huff & puff, players DO want flatter structures.
2) I don't think we should refer to the players as "pussies" & not "real men" just because they did a deal with THEIR money. We are all entitled to do what we wish with our own money. Being conservative, prudent & sensible does not make them "pussies".
3) "Done pretty lousy", "pathetic", etc. Steady on guys, I know you are both newbies, but this is blonde. We like to show a little respect for our fellow players in here.
Meanwhile, this thread was intended as a "well done" Blackpool for their excellent initiative in flattening the prize sructure. All the deal suggests to me is that Blackpool's initiative was a step in the right direction, but they can & should go further. I certainly don't subscribe to the logic that cutting a deal makes them "pussies" or "pathetic".

LOL, you almost say that the flatter structure was a good thing, and worked.
