No I still disagree. You can't just say 'details'. If one had to play blindfolded would that just be another detail? The 30k:60k makes both challenges entirely different. The essential challenge does not remain. What remains is they are still both a game of poker but that's about it.

Simply put Holla has declined dagunmans initial offer.

My point is fairly straightforward: The original challenge was to prove whether or not Danny has the b/r to back up what John saw as his "balla" attitude. It really was not a poker challenge in the sense of "I am better than you" considering John has all but conceded that he may be at a disadvantage playing NLHE rather than his game of PLO. That said he makes a telling remark in his blog by referring to NLHE as Danny's "apparent" speciality, so perhaps it goes beyond the money and into John questioning whether or not Danny is as good as he says.

In any case; the challenge was never laid down explicitly beyond "come and have a go" really and some loose suggestions for the challenge.

TBH I don't care anymore. They are welcome to each other. Much fun as this might be to watch it is a pointless idea really and essentially comes down to a clash of egos.

OK, mr picker of nits. Let me rephrase it a bit for you.

I am not neutral when I am posting as a poster. I have opinions.

I am (or attempt to be) neutral when posting as a mod.

Sounds like a cross between 25 (or 45 in some parts of the country but essentially the same) and a cattle mart. Also, slightly off topic, but since I'm leaving in a few mins to go home I'll leave it. I might delete it then though.

GL with this if it goes ahead. Original terms were ridiculous and 2 to 1 was never going to happen. I would still be wary of using an unknown dealer and they should agree on getting someone like JP or a casino to supply a dealer (or JP deal!?).

Not sure how anyone could hate smoothcall/chubbs? Perhaps it's that they gazed upon his cherubic features and realised how much was lacking in themselves?

That's how he makes me feel anyhow.

No way this guy has 3K for a cash game never mind 30K- Is this genuinely his blog?

This has moved into the realm of pity right now for me.

I think this thread should really be locked. OP's point is proven.

Seriously this is getting out of hand.

Op call's him out. He's just a young silly chap who shot his mouth off.

I think him responding with the 30K 60K was a way to get out of this to save face.

If that's his blog, well, his Mam's sick and the guy is obviously gambling money he can't afford to lose.

I think the goading on this thread has to stop and this thread should be locked.

Thank you for your input, it's been noted. You don't have to read this thread anymore if you don't want to. It's neither funny nor a joke, both parties need to be given a right to reply, if and when either decide to pull out we may lock it then, but locking it now would do a disservice to both parties.

As I say your protestations have been noted and you don't need to continue with them.

Thank you, should you have a problem with any specific posts in future or that have been made previously feel free to report them, we will look at them and act accordingly.

Aaahhhh Holllaments, no need for that. I always thought you came across like a bit of a cocky dick but and i did enjoy bringing you down a peg or two in the odd thread. So i prob came across a bit like youself sometimes. But to say you hate me more than anyone is some lol , you need to get out more. Ive never even talked to ya ffs, maybe i shouted some deserved abuse at ya in killarney but don't think ive ever had a conversation with you.

Anyways, i think my comrad john has done my job in one foul swoop and exposed you nicely. I look forward to the dance.........

Mr. Incognito

Thanks for the feedback.

We've all said things when we were young that we regret but someone has dug up his personal blog and posted it here for dissemination. No-one deserves to be pubically humiliated in this way

A cursory read would highlight that his mother is sick in hospital and he can't scrape 1K together for a cash game. Waiting around for how he's going to respond to a 30K challenge is quite simply sick and I want no part of it.

If this blog is genuine then the whole point of this thread is moot.

No-one should be enjoying the ridicule of another person in such a public way.

I'm taking it to feedback. I'd appreciate if you didn't delete this post as it's made in good faith.

His personal blog? OK, now you are just showing yourself to be pedantic about this. He writes about his life on the internet? You think he assumes that life will be private? It's linked to a number of other blogs of well known players.

Also, who made you the moral conscience of this forum?

What people are saying is he says in his blog he is cash busto.

Poker players usually say this when all their money is in online poker accounts or online bank accounts. It usually takes a couple of days to be able to access this money off-line. It in no way means the guy is broke.

No offence but why would you get involved in a thread about stuff you clearly have no idea about.

I put up the link to his blog, as he has been responding to Dagunams on his blog (although not 100% sure it is him) he also had his blog at the end of his sig, and posted in the #bad beat section that he had started a new blog, so I certainly don't think it was a personal blog by any means.
