    None of it but I do have a massive collection of old board games that are worth a bob or two. All in the attic.

    Space Crusade
    Space Hulk
    Mine a Million
    Grand Prix
    Escape from Colditz
    Spy Ring
    Totopoly
    Striker
    221b Baker Street
    Scotland Yard

    Loads of others, I always look for old games in the Charity shops.


    Space Crusade (the version I have) is going for about £150 on ebay.

    Totopoly and Scotland Yard are brilliant games.

    I've got Escape from Colditz too, it's one of the most tedious board games ever.

    Not when I was a kid, it was better than sex, mainly beacuse I was too young for sex, plus I was one of three highly competitive brothers.

    I was a ****ing genius at that game. My whole family played it.

    I bought this a few weeks ago:

    Poker too? I'm also a very good Texas hold em player, never played in a Casino though. Mostly 6 player games at home and mostly online now.

    Not so much, i've played it a few times but I prefer No Limits Texas.

    Learned to play Draw Poker when I was about 7 and then my History teacher taught me to play 7 Card Stud which is the basis for Texas.

    I've been playing on Sky Poker for the last couple of years and it never ceases to amaze me how many complete arseholes are actually playing, some of them don't have a clue. I'm tight aggressive, but some of the dopes out there call with any old ****e. I've lost count of the people who call with any suited cards, an absolute mug's strategy.
