Timed TV Tounament

Played in this earlier on and came 5th. At the end when Ryan was reading out the names of people who cashed he came to my name paused, stuttered and then passed over it without reading it out. Quite funny really don't know what the problem was.

    From Google: 

    sod/säd/

    Noun:
    1. The surface of the ground, with the grass growing on it.
    2. vulgar. An unpleasant or obnoxious person.
     
    Verb:
    1. Cover with sod or pieces of turf: "the stadium has been sodded".
    2. vulgar. Used to express one's anger or annoyance at someone or something.

    They probably thought your name was inappropriate for reading out on TV.

    I know what it means having grown up with SOD as my initials. Made my user name sodall as I thought it was pertinant to poker hands (although I am quite tight) and a bit of fun.
    Ps.
    All my mates call me S.O.D. Lol

    Hey,

    Sorry for that.  There are certain names where I have to be very careful with and that was one that had me off guard for a second!

    I'm sure you'll understand.

    Apologies that you never got the namecheck, but the TV world & the poker world have a few differences, & Ryan would have got a little slap had he read that name out.

    It's clearly a clever & perfectly proper play on words, but I can absolutely guarantee that we'd have had a bunch of complaints had it been read out.
     
    Well done on your fine result, anyway.

    As the original question has been answered and before the discussion gets too far off track i'm going to close the thread.
