I would guess that Des does.

You know he keeps thing under his hat. I guess all will be revealed.

Sounds good though. Lets guess what it is...

I reckon its where Des has got some top Pro"s to play with members, as a learning academy. Hopefully Brunson, Gus and Duthie for starters.

If there are pros to be involved, I guess they"ll probably be Bluesq-sponsored players.

Some very good Brits amongst their players.  Would be a brilliant idea.

You don"t want to avoid bad beat situations - bad beats mean that you"re getting your money in ahead.

You"re leading the course.  Along with Dewi.  Des is particularly interested in the "buying the round" part of the course.

Des would be the first "drop out" of that course then
