there was a thread a long time ago with some chat between roundtower and some railbird on Full tilt in which dave asked the guy to write a poem and he's transfer some money to him. Some guy was railing me for some reason tonight and I was reminded of it and decided to see if he was any use as a poet. As follows: WootWootGo…

also woot woot, if you are good with photoshop or ms paint, you might be able to use some of the pictures in the cardshark thread to come up with some new material for it as the thread needs a bump. once you've completed your masterpiece, i'll be shipping you the full $20 and a bonus if its very impressive. once thats done we'll move onto the photoshops and then perhaps up the stakes for some short stories.

hey woot, its a good start but its well short of epic. you're going to have to go the extra yards to secure the full $20 and a possible bonus. Roundtower will also contribute $10 so you have the chance of a nice score here, but I really need to see you put the effort in. Although the above is a better effort than earlier, it's still well short of bonus standards.

I'd like to see you use some proper poetic stylings in the next submissions. I can see you're more than capable of busting a rhyme, but I'd like to see some assonance and alliteration, denotation and connotation, some allegories and also a change of the poetic meter in use.

I think if you can incorporate some of these elements with your sweet rhyming skills you could be in for a big pay day. I'll check back in a few hours and hopefully you'll have created a tour-de-force of modern poetry for us all to enjoy.

You drive a hard bargain Ianmc :)

He's not worth it wootwoot. I'll pm you Ianmcs GJP, PPP, Fulltilt, Pokerstars and Party usernames and i'll give you $10 if you follow him around and tell everyone at the table that he slept with a ladyboy in Thailand becuase it was dark and he couldnt see...

actually it's the other way around,the ladyboy slep with him cuz it was dark and he/she could not see.

Ian considered him self lucky and was bragging about it.

lol literally back now.

wtf is with cardshark broke being locked. that's a joke.

Can someone send $30 to S1r Donksalot on Full Tilt and give me your Stars name and ill transfer it there. I don't have a bean on Full Tilt but I want to give wootwoot his down payment and encourage him to get working on his pièce de résistance.

And I wasn't thinking acting but I was thinking that when he's finished all his current tasks and has been compensated for all his hard work that he might write a song and record it for us and put it up on youtube as a response to the cardshark broke video.

This could be fun....

All these cheapskates trying to make you work hard for 5 bucks. I'll up the stakes I'll give you $20 if you rail me and abuse my opponents while I play 3 or 4 $200 sngs on full tilt. My alias there is changaga888tor and if I show a profit in them i'll double it to $40, now can I get a woot woot?

I'm not around this evening. Friday night might be good if your game.

This has been confirmed to me by reliable sources. Pretty sickening imo, but each to their own I guess.

not a lover of rhyme is roundtower,
The soury sh1te might be in his flowers.
to get his honest view,
please read 2+2,
cause he prefers that degenerate shower!

Fumbling in the dark,
its been so long.
This sloe eyed beauty
eyeing me with hungry appriective eyes.
It started all so innocently.
A trip, an adventure to the unknown.
How was I to know how true that may be.
Soft skin, sensual touch and sexual ecstasy.
hands caressing, covering my face.
Big, like the crab thing in alien
A lump in her throat, my god is she crying?
I try to move south,
my eastern love says no.
A spring roll in her pocket
or is she just happy to see me?

My god, it started one way, moved to mills and boon
then I just gave up before I started making crying game comparisons

jeez wootwoot, to think of what might have been had you only realised your superior creative talent just a year or two ago when the games were much easier and the competition for railbirding was so much less.. bet your kicking yourself for leaving it so long to get into the game?

anyway, any chance you'd do a well for us?
i'd love to hear your views on the new, more aggressive climate we've been recently witnessing with regards to railling? also how you still manage to outclass and outwit your opponents lyrically day in and out at the tables.. you use hud?

hey wootwoot. I hope you're not trying to angle shoot us out of money like Cardshark. alot of us donated generously to the cause.

you seem to have lost interest in your masterpiece in spite of receiving all the good will payments.

Oh, woe is me.
I’ve been here for days.
I was beat up and drug in and forced to stay.
I’ve lost thousands at least,
Give or take a few.
My bookie will kill me.
What should I do?
I make a straight on the river,
But the board is paired,
Im betting it anyway,
Because who the **** cares.
