    Hi Lorraine,
                I really enjoyed reading your post, you are running good at the tables just like that little fottie team from North London that you are a fan of (God knows why )
                Look forward to sitting at your table again very soon, but new rules this time ....... no drinking allowed OK :)
                                  Good Luck in all your games except any im playing in.
                                                     Regards  Mick.

    Great read,  All this time I've been drinking Coke at Live games.....  Chardonnay is the obvious drink to win big ;O)

    Great Read,  Hope you write many more

    Best thread on here for yonks yidette! Quality writing and made me laugh.

    Good to welcome another wine soaked poker player to the forum! Keep up the good work. God loves a drunk :-)

    I'd suggest staying away from the big cash tables when drunk though. Based entirely on personal experience :'-(

    Respect to the chip b'tch, lol

    In Response to Re: Poker and Chardonnay (yidette9's delicious cocktail) : hello again, thanks for explaining what ftw means. I saw you on the leader board in the freeroll today and tried to talk to you in the chatbox .... using "ftw" ... I ended up cashing for £1 coming 8th !!!  I played the spt Blackpool live event with my husband. Great fun especially as he went out 149th and I came 47th !!!   haha ... and yes the wine was flowing that night too!!!   We are hoping to qualify for spt Leeds, you should give it a go and yes, go on, you can buy me a chardonnay and I will buy you a shandy!!!!

    Lovely Post, yidette, well thought out, & well-presented. Presentation counts for a great deal in these things. You get maximum marks.

    I'm delighted that, since then, your game has continued to improve. Long may it last.

    Hi Yidette

    What a coincidence. I actually won my first live tournament in this same casino some 7 months ago. Maybe i'd knocked out the same fellows you caught your hands with. That QTo was inspired!!! Is that the correct word? Poker really is a great game but i'm still learning basics really so luck was very much to the fore, admittedly.
    I thought Liverpool Casino was a very friendly, stylish place actually mind i'm a scouser so biassed. The restaurant is in the top ten in Liverpool. Give it a go. I did play at the Stratosphere, Las Vegas in october but i really didn't enjoy it. A couple of drunks, terrible noise from the slots and tables as a generally grotty area. The Monte Carlo poker room is beautiful and my recommendation. 
    Anyway, once again nice post. keep up the good work. Don't win more than Budgirl. I'm trying to teach my girlfriend in the same way and i'll be tilted badly if she starts outdoing me!! God forbid.

                                                                 cheers

                                                                    Steve aka profman15
