PEREEEEEEEEEMO (Show thread Alert)

IT'S SUNDAY!!

Well hello ;)

It is indeed Sunday (1st prize for stating the obvious goes to....)

Tonight is the £55 primo and boy (and girl) do we have a show for you.. Which is just as well since we are live on air from 9pm to 1am..

So fresh off the back of Gliterbabes sparkling performance and Orfords Wild Card TSP entry.. (Well deserved and a welcome and worthy addition to the team as well as our three TOP player qualifiers)..

Here we are are with your premiere Tournament.. GET IN.. if you satellited, bought in, or Luckboxed your way to a cheeky an enty then LUCK be a rather buxom wench to you tonight my friends..

Since of the theme of the night.. is WINNERS I want to know what YOU guys really REALLY wanted to win  outside of Poker.. and what was the prize..

Also stories of you WINNING something funny, silly or shocking..

There's a Prize of a TSP entry of your choice for the best reply.. the winner to be announced before the end of the show..

To get you started..

I'm notoriously useless at winning anything.. You name it.. Any competion I have ever entered outside of Poker (OBV) has been sent off only to end up in tears.. The Tango squeezy man.. NOPE. The Dulux Puppy toy...NOPE. Even months spent collecting the tokens off of cereal packets to collect my free T-shirt/ pen/ toy/ bike spoke beady things/ Eraser/ etc etc etc  must all have gotten lost in the post.. Not even a whiff of my Tony the Tiger Frisbee... And I didn't receive so much as an acknowledgement let alone a prize. As a teenager calling in to radio stations.. I never even got on the LIVE line let alone got through to win whatever tickets were on offer..

As for the Lottery?? FORGET about it.

In fact.. Until I found Poker.. the only things I ever won were to do with words- Spelling Comps, Short story comps and once I even designed, illustrated and wrote my own comic book.. and won a prize for that (Admittedly it was one page big, I was 7 years old and the prize was a day out at Butlins)... Beggars can't be choosers.

GOOD LUCK and see you on the tables!

Oh and in OTHER news.. Orford is now on twitter..  Not that there was EVER any doubt of his TWIT credentials ;)

    Hi LM, Trevor

    Enjoyed the rail when you were on PTP duty Trevor, have a great show tonight both.

    The club I used to go in do an "Open the Box", I took my wife in and bought £2 of tickets, gave my wife £1.00 worth, and I got the other, imagine my shock when the tickets my wife had number came out, she said we will have number 5, course, I had to go to try to "Open the Bix", number, 5 came out, £1000 jackpot.

    I was totally stunned, course we share :)

    Hi LM

    The only thing I have ever wanted to win is your heart.

    Oh - and the Gadget show competion, lottery etc.

    I actaully did win a car once, for getting a hole in one at my Company's golf day at The Forest of Arden.  Kept it for a couple of months then sold as we were buying a new house.

    Good luck for Tonights show

    Evening all.....

    So, winning things -

    I could tell you about the 6-figures I won playing (cough cough) bingo a few years ago.............but, instead I'll tell you of the only other thing I've ever won, outside of poker.....

    I was once forced into taking part in several silly competitions at a club I was at, and was secretly a little pleased when I won the Miss Sexy Legs competition - unfortunately, my celebrations were short lived because just 10 minutes later I also won the Miss Nobbly Knees competition!  Go figure!!

    Anyway, I hope you enjoy the show - and keep those posts and emails coming in.

    Hi LM, i won an I pod nano in a sudoku competition run by the Sun newspaper once,, filled it in while at work (its ok to mention that, i dont work there anymore,, got caught doing competitions)

    But the funniest win was in a raffle to which i supplied 10 items from my ECO Friendly business.
    I won 8 of them back, donated them back to the raffle then won 3 more AGAIN!!

    It seemed i was the only one delighted with the products won lol.

    A couple of years ago I became a 'male model' when I somehow won a competition to be the face of Milk & More. At the time I was 42yo, grey-haired and a bit overweight. I was whisked off to London for a professional photoshoot, given the star treatment and had my own make-up lady and wardrobe lady at my disposal. Since then I've been on thousands of adverts, leaflets, etc. and permanently on the company website.

    Hello Lisa Marie and Trevor, looking forward to the show as usual.

    I always remember wanting to win just one event that I was entered into at the school sports days.

    The closest I ever came was in the three-legged race, me and my partner in the race had lead all the way until the last corner of the track. The two people in second place decided to cut the corner a little and overtook us.

    The teachers decided to turn a blind eye to their blatant cheating and let the result stand.

    Needless to say I cried a little.

    Hi Lisa Marie & Trevor,
    We're sitting here once again watching in anticipation of yet another great show, and wondering if you'll give this a mention please it can be found on the general poker chat forum under

    Mon 17th Jan is Last Longer Night

    4 Tourneys less than a tenner

     
           
                                      Here's how it is going to work.
      
              The best three results from four tournaments Below will count towards your score             

       Your score in each tournament will be based on your finishing position.
       So, if you finish 1st, 4th, 5th and 92nd your score will be 1 + 4 + 5 = 10.

            1. 7-05pm        BH                    buy-in  £2-30
     
            2. 7-15pm        Deepstack          buy-in  £2-20
     
            3. 8-30pm        Take on Tikay     buy-in  £2-20 
       
            4. 9-15pm        Deepstack          buy-in  £2-20


    there is a £5.50 Take On Tikay entry up for grabs to the winner


    it's been running for a few weeks now and has proved to be a great success, with a quality field every week with a lot of fun thrown in too, just the way it should be

    hope to see many more of you at the tables and gl to all who enter

    and lets see who can knock defending Champ DTWBANDIT off his perch


    thanks
    Chris
