Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

one day people are going to figure out what a massive con on-line poker is.

already found out, mate. I hold YOO!!!!

empire floated today and PG is floating in 2 weeks time, don't know the epics yet but I thought Mickey might because he is usually up with new floats. If not him then Goldfinger will know. NLR is well up today but if its spreadbets does that mean it will fall away again fairly quickly? I lost a good profit last time it fell back and could've bought more--nail biting stuff!

Go and have a look at NML I have just put the cat amongst the pigeons.

Empire epic is EOL, down 17.89%

Both floats will struggle imho - especially party poker. 90% of their market is in the US and it is borderline illegal to play online poker over there. The govt are putting pressure on the likes of paypal and other money tfr companies to stop them being used to fund the poker sites.

Bos - why is it a con - i regularly make money playing for an hour or two late at night

thanks Wilbs and Fundy--think I'll watch them and stick with GMC.

Bos on holiday next week, lucky sod.

fundy , maybe you just got incredibly lucky. i cannot imagine anyone going into a casino and playing poker against a dealer who knows exactly what cards they have and who can pick the next card to play. but that's what people who play online are doing. it's based on the same algorithms as slot machines. "it" decides who wins and how much.

driver, i hope skiathos looks as good as that!!

proptrade, whatever it is you are trying to say, i hope it's worth the effort!!!!!!

Quiet waters run deep!!!!

i worked out how to post images....to amuse us:

youve got it all wrong. The online poker sites (as opposed to video poker in the online casinos) you play against other real people and the house takes a small cut of each pot if a cash game or a small entry levy if a tournament

most of the sites have their systems regularly independently checked and audited and have their results released

fair enough , fundy. i was only going off what i was told by some geeks who do some programming for these sites.

They are darling.........
