Thanks WAZ, looking forward to meet you all @thetables.
Indeed. For the sake of clarity, can you acknowledge on this thread that you wish to be added to the players attending the Luton private game.
I know you have e-mailed me, but it would be better to post here too.
Cheers W.

Good stuff, just post here if or when they confirm.
It would be good if Sorbet Man could make an online appearance before the 22nd, if I may request. ;D
Next matchday is on the 10th October, and the only one before the Private game.

After lengthy negotiations, I am now able to confirm my attendance.

Ace, how much players have confirm the private game now? Buyin ?
-
Ace, how much players have confirm the private game now? Buyin ?
I make it 14 in total confirmed. (Max to play is 20)
We have 2 TBC"s and 5 stating interest in playing if we don"t fill numbers with Luton Players.
So as it stands, we have the numbers already if the 2 TBC join, meaning we"ll have 1 disappointed player.
If the TBC"s don"t confirm, then we"ll have 1 space - Duke is at the bar..........Job done! :)
-
After lengthy negotiations, I am now able to confirm my attendance.
good negotiating!! I will update the master list tomorrow as I lack the ability to cut and paste from my iPhone

OK, ty for letting us know. Ace in charge of this thread / event, so he"ll update the list.
Travel wise I have 2 options that are being considered.
Selfish one is to make appointments in Luton for me at work, and then go to casino after work. Save me too-ing and fro-ing.
Unselfish one is to drive me, my bro, Paul and Ralph Osker as we all live in Peterborough.....and pick you up along the way! ;D
-
ooooh I like option 2, might even make you all a cup of tea !!!!
-
Already confirmed on list but just brought seat into the champs as well. At exhibition all next week so this is my welcomed break after :D
-
ooooh I like option 2, might even make you all a cup of tea !!!!
missus on a training course on the Friday, so I got to be back at home by 3 for kids, so is defo option 2 now.
I have a 7 seater Touran if anyone wants a lift. 4 from Peterborough, so 3 available...2 if Ian is bagging one.

OK, Henlow is 30mins away from Gcasino (according to Googlemap) so aim to be with you around 7.00-7.15pm. I can"t leave mine until missus is back from training, but I"m hoping to be able to leave at around 6ish.
Mine to G, is 1hr n half, so worksout quite well....on paper!

This is planned to be Luton players first and foremost and you are..... however loosely..... a Luton player.
Please be aware though, that we have a waiting list so if we put you in amongst the starters and you don"t turn up, you will be denying a spot to someone else. Please respond to this post or PM me with confirmation and your real name to confirm that you are IN and I will update the list.
Oh, and.....

GL to all

Thank-you to all you played last night, a superb event, and a great laugh.
Loved putting faces to online names, and I very much hope everyone that attended enjoyed it as much as me.
Special thanks to JP and Tighty for the organising, a big thanks to the players, Gcasino and as always the dealers. THanks also to Leigh, APAT and JP for supplying some very nice bounties during the tournament, even if I was one of the bounties!
Both were dealer dealt all night, and it was a looong night at that!
When I left at 2.50am, Ian Matthews had just gone out in 4th (I was giving him a lift home, I exited with 88 vs kk at about midnight at the hands of PhilTC) That left JP as the sole luton survivor vs, JB and Phil TC.
Don"t know who ended up winning.............Sure JP will do a more in depth report soon.
I"m knackered already..got home at 4.15am, and up at 8!..leaving in 45mins to do it all again....Cant wait.
PS - A special personally thank-you to Achim (Cincikid) who is over from Germany for the privat game and today"s events. He very very kindly gave me a gift of a FC Koln Football scarf for helping him with travels, and "running the great luton club" So Achim thank-you very much.
Along with that, Achim also provdied a bounty on his own head, with a very nice prize too wrapped up in a box along with a plaque detailing the event in a framed picture.
The bounty was a Tall glass from a historical brewery in Cologne, 2 packs a Poker cards, some chips lighters....I only know cuz I knocked him out!! :-[ :-[ :-[ (sorry Achim)
See you soon!
-
On the iPhone so this will be brief. Waz has said it all for me but thanks everyone for coming.
Re the finish a 3 way chop was done but as PhilTC had the most chips he took the extraprizesand the title of official Luton Private game champ.
A Luton player will win this next year ;)
-
I can confirm that my burger did turn up, was eaten by our captains sibling, who then went on to take all my touney chips. I have since had two more of them and both been out within the hour :D. Had scampi just now for a change.
Thanksagain to Waz and JP for laying on an enjoyable game.
-
many thanks to JP and Waz and everyone who played on friday, great night and nice to meet you all. entertaining time yesterday and enjoyed the competition especially with getting an 8 on the flop to hit trips against AA and also getting lucky with 89 against KQ the last hand before the buffet was served (thought i might get to the queue quicker but didn"t work as hit my 9)
fingers crossed we can do this again next year and will see you all next weekend for the league match
-
Hi Luton"s,
was my pleasure to meet a lot of you this weekend. Now the nicks have real faces and for sure I"d meet new friends.
My special thanks goes to Warren for his engagement for our club. Congratulation to our Lutons who reach day 2.
Had a lot of fun today during the 7 card Stud tournament, was my first live tournament ever in this game.
I"m sure, it was not my last visit in Uk and participation of an APAT event.
Cu you all next matchday.
Cheers
Achim

Hi All
Just a quick note from me and a HUGE thanks to JP and Waz and Tighty and APAT for organising this on Friday, and to all the Luton team for a fun and enjoyable night. Was great to meet you all and an absolute pleasure to spend time with you all and make some new friends.
Hopefully see you all again in Coventry
Luton FTW
Phil TC

Hello JP, Waz et al,
Firstly, a big thank you for organising the event. It was very enjoyable and I look forward to many more in the future. It was good to put some names to faces.
Thanks again
Jimi (aka RubyMurray)
-
I had a lovely time on Friday, totally pwned by the Geezer :( . I met lots of strange people and put more faces to names. A special ty to Waz, JP and Tighty for organising this event. I very much enjoyed it and an even bigger ty to Stu Aitken for starving himself for our entertainment ;D . The Luton cameraderie is something to behold and it"s no wonder you are doing so well in the league. I would like to give a big up to the Cincinnati Kid himself Achim.... Top geyser and a great raconteur, hope to see you again soon and look forward to catching up with all you guys again soon.
Well played to the Luton winners Phil TC, JB worldwide and JP Round.
I hope this event occurs again soon.
Cheers
Ian

LOL they chopped the pot after I went out, I feel stitched up !!!!!!!
