Soccer Forum poker tourny!

kryogen · 2010-03-12 18:40:52

An idea that has come out of the ever giving Tony "who put the ball in the English net" Cascarino thread We thought it might be a fun idea to have a poker tourny just for the soccer forum heads obviously online is the only way this is possible so before going any further can i just get a declaration of interest from anyone…

I'd play if I get the time, has to be pokerstars though which is decent for setting up private tourneys.

Not a major poster here but would be very interested.

Could I just make a suggestion, this may or may not work.

Seen as this forum gets alot of traffic, maybe you could organise a tourney by county if online was not a possibility.

Oh dear.............

But interested in a poker tourney. If it's gonna be a football match, stick me in nets, watch me scythe down an onrushing forward and get sent off after 15 minutes. My forte when I was a goalie... Get sent off for heinous tackles. I saved the odd shot too, when I wasn't suspended, but still.... Nothing beats a headcase 'keeper.:D:mad::D:mad::D:mad:

11 yellow cards this year and no sending off's, Thats my record. Kinda proud of it.

Daz is a dirty keeper though.

And dubiously proud of it too. No wonder players like Materazzi, Schumacher, Gentile, Keane, Wise, et al are players I love and admire. Dirty, hacking bastard...:o

Nah we all love each other really, the not seeing eye to eye is only an illusion we create to keep the mods on their toes, we have a reputation to uphold.
