Why the double-n?
--- End quote ---
It happened as a mistake when i was about 13 at school and has stuck ever since. A teacher thought that was how i spelt in on a peice of work (i had actually put Danny), and changed it on register etc. It caught on and stuck. My "real" 1st name is actually double barrelled and is "Daniel-James", but everyone has used Dann since aged 13.
When i say a mistake, it was a mistake made by the school and only at 16, when i got my GCSE"s (O levels for you older folk) did i notice they had updated all school records to Double-n. So my GCSEs etc all have double n.
And Robin, i couldnt agree more!!

Some of you out there that read this (ok maybe 1 or 2) will have noticed the name has changed. Thats because i have realised that this blog is less and less about myself and pool, but more about the emergence of a Super Group of Poker Heroes/Villains, that are taking the APAT Tour by storm..............................Hmmm ok maybe not, but its good to dream!!!
I invite all of the members of "Team Gotham" to post in this thread, whether it be tourney reports etc.
I will also post some "in-depth" Player Profiles, of all the members of TG, and we can see if the pseudonyms match the real people!!
A quick roundup of Coventry goes like this.

I think you missed the flop on the one hand you played in Level 1?
Oh and Dann...
