Latalomne's post about Baxter's smile applies to Gary as well.
Gary just seem's too happy about losing a game in which he was 5-0 up. You shouldn't be smiling after that, you should be incensed with yourself. You get the feeling he's not too bothered about titles, just as long as he gets a few quid in his sky. |

Latalomne - when Ronnie's costing you big bucks and that smirk is there, I have to agree with you
![]() He's one of those players that 'on his day' can give ANYONE a game! |
|
By:
my point exactly treble, anderson was just throwing spuds 41 43 and his set up choice ridiculous
|
|
By:
Nowt worse than backing Baxter, he misses 13 match darts and the gormless smile is still grinning
|
|
By:
I might never have mentioned this before but I hate John Gwynne.
|
|
By:
spiller,
they havent settled that fort eire fixed race, investigation into betting market? |
|
By:
Think players smiling and joking around after a loss happens far less now than say 10 years ago.
Players generally sporting in defeat but think with money involved and strength in depth means these losses hurt more |

By:
Thought you'd like that tale lads.
Can I also recommend a book to you if you enjoy stories of hustlers and proposition gamblers. 'Titanic Thompson - The Man Who Bet on Everything' by Kevin Cook. A fab tale from the crazy days of the first half on the American 20th century. Now there was a character. Available from all good bookshops and plenty of bad ones too I guess. |
|
By:
Dav - I think so.
|
|
By:
I've read a decent amount of Ti Thompson's ones.

By:
Hibee - are you still in touch with Gamey Lad?
|
|
By:
I Like Chizzy & Ronnie but both of them are prone to gross balllessness - get your 1.1 and under lays ready

By:
might get my money back.
when i spotted the fraud, i laid out at a loss. lets wait and see. |
|
By:
saturday afternoons are always a minefield with Gwynne. You enjoy listening to all the scores and then they go to some wasteland up north and his dulcet tones appear like nails down a blackboard.
|

By:
WHO WAS the chap on here who raced cars? (PLP????????)
|
|
By:
Ok no probs.
|
|
By:
Yep Pierre it was. Ha ha Gwynne is usually at places like Turf Moor or Rotherham
|
|
By:
Spillsy - yes PLP. Lotuses. Crashed a few too. Now in the oil business.
|
|
By:
Fingers crossed DAV.
Whatwever happens it will take ages to settle. (If they are investigating) |

Guy I knew many years ago was a top pool player (played for England at one point)
He was playing one of his more ordinary playing friends for cash and was unable to get a bet on so he gave the guy the proposition "You have two shots, I'll have one" His mate refused this. So he offered three shots to one, and still got refused. So he came up with "Tell you what. You have as many shots as you want". Mate scratched his head and took the bet. Potted a load of balls and inevitably snookered himself and fouled, so my friend cleared up and took the money! |
|
By:
I have gamey on twitter, though I don't look very often now.
|
|
By:
Anyone heard from PLP recently????
Anyone heard from ITFC??????????????? |
|
By:
ITFC is still about at times but like many on here doesnt post much on these chronic forums
|
|
By:
I TAKE IT EVERYONE IS USING THE "LIVE" VIEW on here NOT the "Standard" view.
|
|
By:
Last I saw of PLP he was with a bunch of walk-on type babes and one of his Lotuses promoting his oil business. He even posted the photos on here.
|
|
By:
chizzy cant be any worse 2nd session thats for sure
|
|
By:
He actually is in the oil business? I thought you were taking the mickey alun
|
|
By:
Why do I get the feeling Ronnie's missed his chance
![]() |
|
By:
He posted quite a lot of stuff about it on here, and I had a few emails.
|
|
By:
God, I'd forgotten about PLP! Going back about 8 years he'd ring me on an almost daily basis. He was pro-punting back then.
|
|
By:
Been some great faces over the years on here
|
|
By:
omg

Big 5 from Chizzy
