The beauty of Live Poker is you get to meet such a wonderful array of characters.
By way of a conversation opener/ice-breaker, when I sat next to him on Friday, I asked this lovely looking lad what line of work he is in. His answer, & the backstory, knocked me over.
Guess his job.
First clue - EVERYONE has heard of his job title. But I doubt anyone of you have ever met someone who does what he does.

Sky put on the best live events, huge thanks. It was great meeting up with friends on the felt, Charlie @mumsie , Irish Rose, countless others. Sharing a table with the legend @Tikay10 was a memory which will stay with me for ages.
The giveaways of shirts, hoodies, hats, and other ‘stuff’ was a really nice touch.
Very kind of Tikay to mention the tag was still on my hat after a couple of hours wearing it ( and running well, hitting full houses, sets etc etc.) took the tag off and was card dead for the rest of the evening 🙄. Good Luck to Charlie and Rose today .
Giveaways.... Sigh, hate to miss SPT’s especially the freebies and fabulous head prize opportunities. Sadly , in the immortal words of Mick Hucknall, Not worth nattering about financial squeezes

IRISH ROSE STOOD UP - Chapter 1
Commotion on Table 1 & I look across to see Irish Rose stood up, handbag in hand, coat on shoulder.
She is all-in & at risk, 2-2 not looking good against 7-7. On the turn, along comes the deuce. BINK.

IRISH ROSE STOOD UP - Chapter 2
Actually, I got chapter 1 & Chapter 2 mixed up, but no matter.Rose got it all-in with 6-6 v Aces, then came the handbag, hat & coat routine and then she binked a straight.
