    The patrons of the Emporium are like a beaten woman who continues to belief that her husband will change one day and that it will all be better, he is just mis-understood and its actually her fault.

    Get a grip guys - he doesn't love you!

    The live 5 only got going about 4am when it was obvious nobody else was coming in. 1/2 PL all night up till then.. The banter was class though..

    Someone was telling me earlier that there was at least 12k on the table last Tuesday near the end of the game. That is pretty big for a 1/2/5 game in Dublin, and is not that rare an occurance either I have been led to believe in the early hours of the morning.

    As I said, I wasn't there. I have only actually played cash in there once in the last 3 or 4 weeks I think.

    Ok Rory,I am sure Alex will be posting the new Schedule over the next day or two. As you mentioned over the last two weeks I have met with the Management of the SE. I gave some suggestions,highlighted plenty of issues and put forward some ideas for a change in the Schedule. In fairness to them they were very open to change and have gone with alot of my(when i say my ideas,i got alot of great ideas from alot of people) suggestions. Anyway over the next while you will hopefully see some positive changes in relation to the card room starting what i think most will agree is a really strong Tournament schedule.

    Don't get out too often was in the SE last night and a night a couple of weeks ago and there was feck all action going on. Done well on the 1/2 PL though so not too bad. I think the tournament only had 2 tables not sure about that though only went in for a cash game.

    LOL Jay

    In my experience when someone who doesn't know you goes out of their way to insult you, it's usually a result of their own insecurities rather than your own faults.

    I would like to know who you are though.

    I'm not in the business of offending people so will watch my behaviour when ur at the table.

    Hi,
    I am a product of a bullied childhood and I just get offended at some of your jokes. You intimidate me that is all so yaa yaa maybe it is my own insecurities. But maybe YOU should take the time to be more considerate to the feelings of other players at the table.

    As to who I am, well thats just typical of your uncaring nature.. I ve played with you on many an occasion.

    All I ask is for some consideration and thought when you are playing poker. You can be quite rude and offensive.

    Jay, you know the rules.

    You're not allowed have an opinion on anything until you've paid everyone back the money you owe.

    Is this a joke? Tom is the funniest thing this side of josephine brand. seriously though - a bit of banter and chats at the table make all the difference. Most enjoyable game of poker ive had for a year on saturday nite.....
