I dont like to copy and paste. Knew I must have read it from somewhere.

But you know I get all my great ideas from you.

But what makes an idea great? People willing to take up the challenge. There are more than just one supervisor. I have spoken to Dani from Walsall. Freak from Sheffield, NightFly from Notts. And Richard from The BRoadway. All have expressed a willingness to have discusions in some form or another. Hope I haven't committed them now. HEHEHEHE

I am meeting someone from Stanleys on Saturday at a mutual friends wedding and will be bringing this up with him.

So any players other than Ironside willing to participate???

I'm sure there will be. A cross reference of players would be best. Big tourney players. Grassroots players. Internet players, Cash only tourney only. The list goes on.

Altho this could turn out to need a bloody great big conference facility

to truely make this work you would need to get reps from all the major online sites that are aiming at the UK market

[Yogi-Bear]

We should start a new thread for this Ironside.

I may have some free time to put some effort into this and would relish the chance to do it.

I remember reading it now that i have re-read it, I have almost quoted it. HEHEHEHE. I've also  had the same conversation several times over the years. Perhaps is now the TIME. Let's go forward whilst we can.

The Blondepoker community is growing lets be pro-active and make a difference to everyones poker experience.

As you seem to know people at online sites, and Tikays friends. Plus the ones who work for online sites on here lets get them together.

If people are not willing to travel somewhere for a meeting then they prob aren't overly concerned about the game in general.

Public Apologies for ripping Ironside's idea word for word.

I'm sorry

Things stick in my mind, and I never know where things come from.

Excellent Idea From Ironside.

yogi i will leave the starting of a new thread to you and will ask tikay to make it a sticky so that it doesnt disapear from the board and out of minds again, but right now i am off to bed where i was supposed to be going 4 hours ago

[ifm]

hardly new but moot..............
About the number 1 thingy, if you could find a system for instating such a thing would that not prove the game to be skill and not chance?
I shouldn't need to explain the reason i ask............
BTW who says cardroom managers know what's good or bad? there have been some horrendous rule changes implimented by these folks "for balance" or "to make rules more black and white" and they have only done a disservice.
Good intentions do not add up to correct decisions.

[Yogi-Bear]

And this would be an opportunity to change those bad rule changes. Would it not?? And yes some of the card room managers?? I think supervisors would be the right word to use. Might be that some of the ilk will bring "Bad Rules" to the table. Hopefully  then they could be noticed from the start. I know people want the TDA rules, and perhaps thats the ones that we adopt in this country.

 But if only players or only "managers" make the rules then the poker community as a whole would not be represented. Its this representation that wil stop YOU the POKER PLAYER from being dictated too.

sounds grand to me, Ifm doesnt have a good opinion of supervisors does he??  been disqualified recently?? only joking lol

this sound slike direct rip off off my poker forum ( a meeting not a thing like this) hehehehehehehe

[Yogi-Bear]

We all have the same ideas as you know. Just with differences along the way.

And this is a steal from Ironside not you. Ive already credited him with it.

HEHEHEHEHEHE

git tikay likes my ideas even tho he misses me out of his enwspaper coloumn ahem

as for getting all supervisors together and a few players, it does sound like a good idea but personaly i think alot of gm's couldnt be arsed setting it up and payin us, it would have to be done of our own back, there response would be u have national cardroom meetings for this, the company i work for as had a rules meeting months ago but their is a lazy supervisor among  us that cant be arsed typing them out, may be he feels he is far to superior to be writing out mere rulings

[freak]

Right

as to getting together with other supervisors/managers to thrash out some 'standard rules' i cannot wait to do it cos generally all the local rules suck worse than a sucky thing.
Napoleons casinos or at least the Sheffield ones WILL fully support a standard set of card room rules.
The sooner the better as far as i am concerned.....

like i previously said we would all like it to happen, even if we set a rules meeting up their would be few or no general managers that would pay us for it, or pay our expenses

[Yogi-Bear]

Yes I would imagine it would have to be done off our own backs. And Freak has said that Napoleans will support it. I like the controversy and would love to fly in the face of the establishment.

I have no problems in going to someone other than the GM (might have problems there) HEHEHEHE. Maybe above them to see about how the company would receive it. In fact email sent as soon as I get to work tonite.
