Stories of crushing poker in Vegas? None at all, I'm 0/5, &, as some wizened old wag noted, it's not dignified to poker at my age. Been out & about looking at some weird sights in the USA though. bit.ly/2Y2gOt8 Sky Poker Neil Channing Barny Boatman Barry Carter

Saddened to hear from Harry Demetriou that John Gale passed away yesterday. He was just 65. Poker has lost a lovely man, & he was an absolute credit to the game. Thoughts go to Shirley & his family. RIP John.
