Title: Photoshop at it's best
Post by: Chipaccrual on July 12, 2009, 20:02:47 PM
It"s amazing what you can do with good quality software these days.

Take this for example.  Here"s a picture of our own Neil Dawson at a poker table, and they"ve very cleverly given Neil a stack of chips way beyond anything you would expect to see him with.  Those clever boffins.   ;)

Yeah, but not one of the best I"ve ever seen, the best tend to be at least "Slightly" believable.....

Fact: that is me in the pic

Fact: those are the chips I had in front of me - no more, no less

Fact: I had considerably more (about this amount (http://www.net10.co.uk/APAT/forum/neildawson_dtd_apat2.jpg)) when the tourney finished

You"re right ... I actually had those three piles and two others like it at the end. And shortly after, a wee pink bag full of £20s.

Neil, why is it that people always mock the successful?  Is it jealousy?

Here"s the vertically-challenged tournament ninja after his win:

I like to think I got more of the dramatic photo, before the win had sunk in.

Good attempt Leigh, but you forgot to take account for his height, his eyes should be level with the bottom of the money pile.

6.7/10

How long have I been classed as "that bad" a player?

And since when was 5"11" short?

LOL. I feel like such a target here. I can"t believe I even choose to defend myself. I think it"s about time to use Mod powers, but before I do ...

Here are the results of the Tourney (http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/resultplayers.php?id=732) associated with big chip stack pic. We chopped it 50/50 when we got HU and no further hands took place hence I finished with a towering chip stack of around 180k.

I have just measured myself and I"m 5ft10 and a half. I do apologise profusely for misleading you.

Now will someone PLEASE remove the handle from my back!!

Firstly, I do thank you for recognising my official ordination.

Secondly, please, remember the original "Ginger Nut" thread I started ? ? Your church is weak in comparison.
