This bit of stupidity doesn't even make sense. The site it occurred on doesn't have any bearing on the story whatsover.

I'm afraid I know little to nothing about this topic. I'll mention the thread to Neil Johnson. It may take a bit for him to respond as he's often on the road travelling to or operating events.

because pokerstars employees whilst on official business do not have access to email or telephone? get them down to london and they can loot one for themselves

This is good ,but probably better to PM it to them rather than post it here ,because once it's on the forums they can hardly use it later on the show.

i'v listened to every pokercast multiple times each, and the Steve Cyr interview was by far top 3, if not the best. i know the interview cant be poker-centric, but would love to hear from him again.

What about me?

I have a thread running in SSNL with 300 posts and 20k views....

http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/39...neral-1070892/

I'm also one of probably not a lot of American players who are still making a living playing completely online without a VPN. That may be an interesting topic as to how that's being done.

Please say that the opening joke for this week's episode is Mr Bean/London riot related. Open goal for you.

Try to get congressman Dr. Ron Paul on the show! He has a shot unlike the honorable Gary Johnson. He's 2nd or 3rd in fundraising.

That exact joke is in the show, it's just not in the intro.

Are you guys aware of the "Goliath" tournament that is coming up in the UK? Its only £100 buyin but it is going to be a 3 day event with 3 day 1's and a guaranteed prize pool of £100,000.

It is also set to be the largest field MTT in Europe ever.
