The Bounty Hunters

Seems like Juices idea of a tournament with a bounty on an old foe of his may come to pass.Chatted briefly to the prey last night and next weekend ( Fri 28th or Sat 29th) would suit him and give us time to arrange bringing our US Heavy Arms Divison to the table. As mentioned previously a 11pm or 12am UK start time may be best to accomodate our US friends.

Sites? Juice mentioned Royal Vegas.Do they do private tourneys? The prey did ask if he gets the bounty if he wins the sng and while obviously there's more chance of Juice wearing a Spurs top I do think that would be a fair shout.

Me,Juice,The Edge,The prey,Rosie?,Gary C,Trip,Jordan plus 2 more?? ( Will? Sir?Veneno? anyone?)

If we could organise it weekly or even fortnightly with a different bounty on a someone different every time ( good idea Juice) that would also be good.

I'm normally silent at the table and take it all very seriously but I've really enjoyed my wee foray into limit poker at Ladbrokes even if the game itself bores me to tears! So busy watching the chat I keep having to hit the "I'm back" button and as for strategy I'll let you know if I come up with one.....

Did move briefly to a $.50-$1nl 6 max table after Juice left last night but my head was too fuzzy and after 20 mins and a $6 loss when my flopped 2 pair ran into a flopped set I headed to bed.I was actually quite proud of my play in that hand. He'd bet $1 after the flop so I raised to $2 which he called.Same on turn and he bet out $1 on the river surely expecting me to make a big raise but I'd sensed the danger and just called.

Beforehand I took the family up for dinner at my folks place.A fine time and Nacho and Step A enjoyed themselves.Step A is growing up so fast. "You need a haircut" she announced the other day.Duly sorted at lunchtime but me and Nacho have our work cut out dealing with the bossy females in our life!

My cold feels a bit better today but my lack of sleep is catching up on me which means I'll probably play poker till 6am again....

On the car front I aint spending nothing just now.Anyone know if putting 2 1/2 pints of water in your radiator would stop the car overheating? Its seems to have done the trick but the garage said the cooling fins were gubbed.Damn rip off merchants. If the handbrake cable does freeze during the winter I'll fix it then.

Got my £235 bill for my tennants new cooker only they never told me that price excluded VAT.( sales tax). Another £40 plus £95 for the gas leak call out and £95 for a carbon monoxide call out charge.They may aswell wear masks and carry a damn swag bag.Time for a rent increase and a change of letting agency.

My sister is back from her shopping trip to New York and apparently spent over £1k.I don't think I've spent that on clothes etc in my whole lifetime.Of course you'd never tell by my trendy up to date look.( jeans and a t-shirt).
Glad she enjoyed herself.She's had a tough year.

Having friends over next weekend but this weekend will be quiet.Off to see the Rangers beat Motherwell at Ibrox tomorrow.They'd better or the bosses jacket will be on a shoogly( shakey) peg.I've a feeling a certain Mr Scott McDonald of Motherwell (who scored the goals v Them that won us the league) may just get the welcome of his life.So long as he doesn't score against us....

Have a fine weekend.

Royal Vegas works for me. I would just have to move some money around, as I am currently at ZERO there. I don't know if they do private tournies though.

Would be big fun and I will mention it to Jordan and Trip.

I don't play there either after blowing my free $10!

Would be a fun line up.

Private tourneys Juice??

Hook me up with some details...I sort of understand what you mean, but sort of don't.

I don't have a Royal Vegas account, but I'll see what I can do. The bankroll is small to quite small right now so we'll see.

You can email me details on the idea at jaxon59@yahoo.com if you want...

Tripjax,

If you sign up for a new Royal Vegas acount they'll give you $10 to play with. That should be enough for the hit job.

There's an affiliate link to Royal Vegas on my blog but don't feel obliged to use it if you'd prefer to use someone elses.

Good luck,

The Edge.

Reward the prey? REWARD THE PREY? I cant believe my ears. Swindy talks about nothing butbeating you acorn . He doesnt contemplate failure. He is supremely confident of beating everyone.

Yet,Do we meet fire with fire. Do we tell him such negociations are pointless as he will be cut off at the knees? no! we show weakness by backing down!.We tell him well its only fair if he beats us!! Wake up tommorrow morning acorn and slap yourself hard in the mirror and just remember that the pain will be 500x worse should we fail in our mission!!!!!! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Its a time for heroes!

Speaking of which

hello Gary C and TripJax!

Have a great weekend all.


Should be a good one! :-)

"No, maybe I can't win, maybe the only thing I can do is just take everything he's got. But to beat me, he's gonna have to kill me, and to kill me, he's gonna have to have the heart to stand in front of me, and to do that, he's gotta be willing to die himself and I don't know if he's ready to do that. I don't know, I don't know."

That better Juice? lol

What do you mean backing down? He'd have to win first and with Trip,Garyc and Jordan ( hopefully) playing he can ask for whatever he likes if he wins cos as our US friends would say "That aint gonna happen buddy".

Let the games begin!
