    I was with you until number 10, then it just got ludicrous.

    On Number 3, I'll never forget the first time I met Rob.  His nickname is Aussie, he was playing a poker tourney in England, he was wearing a French National Rubgy top and he claimed to be Scottish.  I couldn't decide which country he was from so I just assumed he was a crazy Italian.

    Is this a competition where we have to guess which answer is incorrect?

    If so then I go for No. 10 as being the odd one out & incorrect

    hey!  this thread is already racing away into fantasy and nonsense. paul was making a few serious points except the closet thing.  and tommyd... well what does he know about anything, i asked his maths class what they thought of their teacher having the skills to go to vegas and they said that it just doesn't add up.

    But you did send some??? ;)

    I heard Sporny was offered the position.
    But apparently the reflection from his bald head dazzled the cameramen/women
    plus he fell short of the under 25 rule.
    He refused to limit his moans to a maximum of 25 per show!

    Please let him back sky he's sorely missed!

    1:The reason that MickJen has not been on the forum is nothing to do with a lifetime chat ban, he has been playing in the big cash games in Macau.....playing h/u with Lord Lucan
    2: Michelle Orpe had became such an adrenalin junkie that she eventually 15 bet Julian Thew....but was looked up when he held 82o....which of course, got there....
    3: Jonny Gould and Ed Giddens are now appearing on the Latvian version of Coach Trip
    4: The original Scotty77 who played on Sky Poker was replaced by an alien that has been programmed not to tilt and/or abuse other players

    only joking....mostly

    Just need a couple of volunteers and there could be a forum version of Chat Box on YouTube every week :D

    I heard a rumour that the thread would be locked and the creator would be banned from the forum if it became more popular than the actual Chat Box show though.

    Sky Poker are pleased to announce the introduction of UKIPS

    No it's not a series of high end tournaments!

    It's Customer services advice on what to do while you're waiting for 30p DYM's to be reinstated!

    Carlos is Mr Citrone's real name. He shortened it to 'Carlo' for TV, because he thought it sounded sexier!

    EDIT: The proof is here... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carlo_Citrone
  • edited June 2012
    I dunno if you're giving me a fact here James or just joining in with the rumours and conspiracy theories lol.

    EDIT: Saw your proof, ok fair enough, how disappointing. Carlo does definitely sound better though... not sure about sexy...

    1: Dr Tom was found to have got his qualification from the same organisation as Gillian McKeith and so will never work on t.v. again
    2: Caspar Berry is now moonlighting as a friendly ghost
    3: James Hartigan is discovered not to be American (his slim build was the giveaway)
    4: James Browning is about to appear in Eastenders as the reasonable brother of Derek, Max and the other one

    1: Matt Broughton is now a children's presenter on CeeBeebies

    2: "The Club" was axed because in all it's shows, not once did it discuss what was the best flavour - mint ftw

    3: In a previous working life Tikay drove a Hackney cab around London - his nickname was given after he achieved the highest ever score in "The Knowledge"

    4: Next year's Viva Las Vegas qualifiers will not run monthly - but will be based on who can provide the most rumours between now and the end of this post.
