Welcome to The Phat Dogs website. We're a home game group that play No-Limit Holdem on Wednesday nights in and around Reading, Berkshire. Small stakes stuff. Fancy a game? Then simply go to the forum, look for the posting of the next game's details and send a reply. We'll let you know if there's a seat free that week. We start at about 7.30 and usually end by midnight.
We don't take things too seriously - after all, its only a game! Its purely a sociable, social event, and the results are entirely secondary. That's our story and we're sticking to it. You may wish to bring a sense of humour with you. We like a laugh, and the BS is unending...
2009 CHAMPION: OLEY !

Oley won the Phat Dogs 2009 League by mixing his game up really well. One week he'd play poker and screw all of us, and the next week he would be out with his girlfriend. I've got absolutely no information about what she plays, but I'm pretty sure he was err... winning there as well. Good work fella!
WEEKLY LEAGUE UPDATE:
July 29th. Week 24.
No report today - I am on strike in sympathy with Italian journalists who are protesting at Silvio Berlusconi's latest farce. In case you are unaware, the Italian PM is trying to pass a gagging law, which seems fairly appropriate for many of his party's prostitute MPs, I suppose. Unfortunately, this law (being voted on today) is to hinder the police and judiciary from taping conversations, and to prevent the press from reporting the resulting transcripts.
Luckily, it won't apply to the Mafia or terrorist suspects, so who WILL it affect? Politicians. Basically, Silvio got a tad embarrassed when his chosen hooker for the night taped him at one of his parties whilst they were in bed, and it got out. So now, Il Scumbaggio is trying to cover his sorry ass with this law, which is not only pointless (thank god he can't gag the internet) but will have far-reaching consequences.
Italy was the birthplace of fascism, and its alive and well there today. For all the sorry-arsed PMs that Britain has had over the years, we've never stooped to this level of disgrace.
Is 73 too old to be strung up from a lamp-post? Discuss. But don't publish.
