    Galronix

    Hi All

    It's been 10 years since i last posted here, but just wanted to make you aware (in case you don't have the family on facebook/social media)

    It's with great sadness that i'm letting you know that Galronix (Eric McKie) who was one of the earlier members in the poker forum during the time of the VC poker leagues and was an active member in the live meets has sadly passed away. He had a few years of bad health and he passed away last tuesday. 

    His funeral will be held at Thamesview Crematorium in Gravesend DA12 on Tuesday 25th July at 3pm

    Hope everyone's well, All the best

    Re: Vegas virgin 1 - Get your ESTA before you do anything, 99% go through fine but they do flag 1% now for additional checks. 2 - Book Virgin direct flights if its your 1st time and are playing a WSOP event, the extra 3-4 hours with indirect flights may not seem a lot of time to wait, but its a massive hassle and can ruin your trip if you miss connections or have delays etc. For the difference in price (in most cases) its not worth it. 3 - When you arrive, go to the Rio as soon as you can and double check you are registered for the event. If you turn up on the day and its not done, you're gonna have a struggle to get sorted. 4 - Food and drink, millions of restaurants and fast food joints, you'll only be 100 yards from somewhere to eat so dont worry about that, see what you fancy when your there. The Grand Luxe Cafe in Palazzo and Venetian are great and dont cost much for a great meal. 5 - If you want alcohol, don't use the hotel bars, sit at a slot machine or gaming table and within 10 mins you'll have a drink in your hand for just $1. 6 - Use hotel shuttles, the bus and the monorail as much as you can, taxi's are now more expensive than ever and can really mount up over the week. Traffic is bad in the summer so public transport and shuttles are much better. 7 - If a pretty girl comes up to you and offers a drink or wants to chat you up, its not cos your a good looking bloke, its cos their hookers ;) Loads more to tell you but best advice is to simply enjoy yourself and take it as it comes. Oh and congrats!

    Re: newcastle ukipt this weekend Out in 106th with 72 paid Im in the BB with 59k with blinds about to go to 1.5k/3k with 300 ante I have JsQs Brett Angel raises to 4.8k and seat 10 calls, i make up the difference and call too. Pot is 17.4k Flop is AsJcQh I lead out to 7.8k to hopefully just take pot now, Brett gets out the way and the caller raises me to 20k. With him flat calling, im struggling to put him on a set (AAQQJJ), or on AK or AQ as surely he would have re-raised pre. I decide he may have an underpair, or AK maybe so decide to shove it in. He thinks and makes the call with AQo and takes me out. :(

    Re: Grosvenor UK Poker Tour (GUKPT + Goliath) - Live Tour Dates 2012 Damn Edward MacLeod moves all in from under the gun, Nick Hicks, who just has him covered then also moves all in in the next seat. Everyone else folds and it's on your back for both players. Ed.... 7-7 Nick... A-Q The board runs out 5--Q--Q--8--10. Trips for Nick as he takes the pot, putting him on 120,000. Ed heads out in 17 position.
