Decent start taking down a pot eases the tension ! Heading down in 30 ish to have a look - Thanks everyone whos railing us all in the threads, my day tomoz and cant wait now but slightly nervous. cheers Posted by Nutter5932
Youll be fine m8, and will love it. Best of luck to you too!
Omen? As you know, when you win a Sky Poker Viva Las Vegas Package, you get to bring a guest. Well, Will's guest - he was in the photos from the Rio Welcome Party on my Blog yesterday - played a Super Sat here, yesterday - and won a seat! We will try & follow him too, & maybe try & adopt him into the Sky Poker Railing Team. I think he plays Day 1c - tomorrow. We am on fire! Posted by Tikay10
Yes Will's guest last year Ed Rogers, who recently final tabled in a GUKPT event, also cashed with Will last year in the ME, so this is great news
I've done a quick blog here with some more pics of the Team - including one of Will's guest Anthony, who is indeed playing tomorrow on Day 1C of the main event so take a look when you get a minute. Lets all get behind him tomorrow too and wish him well along with Will, Ben and Marco!
P.S. I'll be doing a complete review of the day's play, which i'll aim to get up on site by 10am uk time each day, so look out for those in the Blogs area, I'll also do my best to get a preview up by 7pm UK time each day.
Spotted this young Lady. She asked me to convey this message - "Miss all you guys at Sky Poker, say Hi to everybody from me, kiss kiss kiss". No idea who she is, mind.
Think I'll stop visiting Will's Table. I arrived to see a big pot Brewing (see what I did there?) with Will & Matey Boy. The Board showed a heart Flush, & was Q-K-4-2-Q. Scary. Here's the two hands - Will v Matey Boy. Choppity-Chop! Posted by Tikay10
Love the photos Tikay- it's pretty amazing seeing stuff that happened a few minutes ago from the other side of the world. I'd send you pics of what I was doing a few minutes ago, but I don't think the moderators would appreciate it.
Out of interest, are you having to sneakily take those photos on your mobile phone? Given what you've said about how strict they are with camera crews on the cardroom floor, I'm surprised people can wander around taking snaps at will (or of Will!)
Also, what time tonight (GMT) is Day 1A expected to finish?
Say hello to all the crew from me, and come on Will!

Hi all,
first off, I think the day ends at about 6am BST (they are 8 hours behind the UK in Vegas!) - which is about 22:00 in LV (and if my following of the Main Event last night was anything to go by they are aiming to finish the Day 1's at 22:00/22:30 Pacific Time).. Is this right Tikay...
Good luck to all in Vegas... Tikay, send Dan my congrats on the 41st placed finish out of 2800 runners..

Hi Rich,
Day 1 finishes at about 10.30pm Local (06.30am UK).
Yes, provided you have a Press Pass, it is permitted to take photos in the Room, but we must NOT use the flash - anyone caught flashing gets shot.
We had a bit of an incident - well two actually - when we were filming in the Room today, but we were in the clear, & got away with not doing whatever we had not done. They are VERY strict.
A Policeman (!) approached us in the Cardroom - "NO FILMING - HEY, YOU HEAR ME BOY (I liked "boy") NO FILMING", but our official Escort said "back off, they are with me, they are authorised".
Then our Official Escort got challenged by the Floor Police - "you can't come in here, you don't have a Pass".
She said "but I ISSUE the Passes".....!
Oh, & I am not "people" as in your description of "people wandering around".
About a dozen random Americans, who I've never met in my life, were calling out to me in the Rio Corridor today - "hey, that's the old man from Sky Poker". Heathens, all of them.

She's got 35,000 chips though.
We are producing LOTS of filmed interviews from Vegas, & they go up on the Site within a few hours of being filmed.
Go to the "Viva Las Vegas" page, & root around - they are in there somewhere. LOTS of them.

Ah, the gorgeous Kara Scott. Some gentlemen may prefer blondes (cough richard cough) but not me!
