Updates - Welsh Championship at Cardiff Grosvenor 28th-30st Aug 2015
Matt D:
Don"t forget that this weekend we have the online version of the Welsh Amateur Poker Championship.
SUN 6 Sep 15 18:00 Welsh Online Championship £20 + £2
SUN 6 Sep 15 18:30 Welsh Online Side Event - PLO £10 + £1
And the week after that we have:
SUN 13 Sep 15 18:00 *UK Team Online Championship £20 + £2
* This will also act as a "qualifying event" for the live equivalent (UK Team Championship) which will be held in January 2016 - the Top 3 finishing teams will be invited to play in the live event.
MintTrav:
It has occurred to me that a lot of people may not be familiar with the famous spectator at the final table (or may have forgotten over the years).
Nicky Piper was a world-class boxer from Cardiff who fought for a world title three times, once against Nigel Benn. Apart from the world title attempts, he only lost two other fights in his 33-fight professional career, one to a future World Champion and one to a boxer who fought for World titles both before and after he fought Piper. Nearly all of Piper"s wins were by knockout.
Here we see him keeping a watchful eye on Rodders, the Kempster and Bash in case they start string-betting or playing out of turn.
Matt D:
Almost busted out the "mega flash" for that shot, but decided against it...
(in the end I believe JM papped him).
APAT:
Nicky is a passionate poker fan and APAT has supported a couple of his charity poker initiatives over the years. To add to his plaudits, he has also been a long term broadcast commentator on boxing.
