    As one of the guys from 'behind the scenes', I just wanted to say well done to Dan - a worthy winner of Total Player and one who, when he does board that plane to Las Vegas, has a GREAT chance of going the whole way.

    I also wanted to commend Ben and David on how well they took it. Poker is an emotionally tough game. It doesn't matter if it's the case card that turns up on the river or finding out that this wasn't quite your time, the job of a poker player is to do the best they can, get it in good, and hope the rest of it works for you. When those beats come, you have to brush it off and remember it's part of the game. The best players in the world know their time will come and don't let the adversity of *this* moment set them backwards. Ben and David showed the class, dignity and most of all poker talent which - as Tikay and Richard rightly pointed out on several occasions tonight - will get them a long, long way in poker.

    Lastly, I hope the Community joins me in congratulating Des and all of the team for bringing a genuinely innovative show format to Sky Poker. Total Player has been bold, compelling and of the highest quality from the first show to the last. 

    Sky Poker: one of the greatest poker communities out there - fact.
    Home of some awesome, awesome players - fact.
    Dan Brown - congratulations. You can now go and win even bigger prizes - fact.

    Huge congrats to Dan and heartfelt commiserations to Ben and David, whilst the journey for Dan continues in the public eye I have a feeling that if the WSOP is deep in the hearts of not only Ben and David, but in any of the TP'ers then it could be a **** of a reunion come June and July - that would be truly awesome!

    David and Ben I feel for you but, like others have said, I'm sure we'll see you in Las Vegas one way or the other.

    Huge congratulations to Dan and all the best for the rest of your journey.

    Congratulations Dan Good luck in Vegas mate, Unlucky Ben and David! I really feel for Ben the most, it was like his heart had been ripped out when they announced it :-( You both took it so well though! Hopefully still get through on the Sattellite route!

    First one in the thread from last night,

    I'd like to say congratulations to Dan on here even if we have spent the last 24 hours within 10 feet of each other ! We all went of after and had a good chat in funky Buddha ?? wow this wasn't a place for the normal class. 

    I have to honestly say I knew it was gong to be Dan all along because he comes across so well in person and when the camera's are pointing at him unlike me :). I gave my self a glimmer of hope though when quite a few told me they voted for me so I would like to thank those people from the bottom of my heart.

    The reveal was absolutely cringe worthy with those lights I hated it and the fact is I don't like losing at anything full stop which will only spur me on in the future. I am 100% already over it because its better to look forward than backwards and tonight i shall play the primo and get my self into the Vegas semi.

    Grabbing an hours sleep and i'll be on later :)

    Much Respect Ben,

    Whether it is poker, sport or buisness the people who get to the top get there by getting over many obstacles in their way. The people who get someway near to the top get over some of the obstacles.

    Today you have flown over one of those obstacles.
