Currently in the 2nd break, im 3rd from 9... rying to "Do a sharky" as everyone keeps saying... This was the same tournament she won last night, and would be great if I can follow.

Well, Flashy is down to the last 7 in the "Last Chance Saloon", he's nice & "chipper" & up, & now Matt Broughton has arrived, so my stint as sponge man is complete.
So from me, over & out, as Roborover might say.
It's been an honour - what a great TEAM spirit Matt has welded here.
wow some awesome results being posted.... congrats and well played!! Sparce yr a machine! You too Naomi! UL James...... we know 50nl is very crushable here, even for me, but in just 3 days anything can happen. I feel your pain.

My thanks again Tikay - hope you enjoyed the evening - decent gang ain't they!
So, I came to the party late tonight, but was happy to see Naomi had another solid night after the horror of Monday, ending with BR = £884.22 Boyle also quietly ground his was up to an entirely decent final BR of £739 Bdog will no doubt be unhappy with his final tally of £514.77 but profit is profit! Sparce truly made the most of the opportunity to get some money from Sky in his personal account, ending the challenge on £1,254.40! James took a hideous beating - proving why varience HATES a 12 hour challenge! - and ended up having played some great hands but sadly ending on £247 (our only -£ in the team - Sorry fella!) Charles had a great comeback session, and I was proud to find myself railing a FT of a big MTT with one of my team HU once again. Sadly Charles couldn't quite grab the first, but his impressive 2nd place saw his final BR hit £601.23
Congratulations to all players. An interesting excercise I think you'll agree. Don't panic if you didn't do as well as you thought you would, and don't get too comfy just because you made some money. MUCH data remains to be analysed before Saturday, and I am HATING every minute of it! Why didn't I pick a weaker team!!!!
Enjoy your filming, and relax before the big announcement on Saturday. Oh, and don't forget to get any hands you think are sexy and worth revisiting in to the email address by noon Thursday (today!)
1000% times better for me tonight!! I started off with my final 2 sit n go's thta needed to be completed before the end of the day. I did 2x £22 DYMs and won both, so straight away im £36 in profit. I then sat on 2 25p/50p tables, I staretd off a bit lairy raising and reraising abit to get an image, before tightening right up and getting paid by a few people. I ended those £20 up and £16 up so another £36 profit on cash. I then decided as that put me in profit overall on both STTs and Cash that I would try make a good cash in some MTTs and finish in profit on that also. The MTTs to start with didnt go to plan, fair play to my opponents they really put pressure on, every raise was met with a re-raise and was very hard to win pots. In the end I was left with only 1 tournament, the £850 BH that I was aware Sharky won last night. This really spurred me on and I started to get a big rail... and i mean a BIG rail.
Its a long list of people so i'll just say thank you to everyone, great to have such supoport I think at one stage I counted at least 10 people railing me. Anyway I won some crucial 60/40's which held up at the right times. I got to the final table mid stacked, where shall we say it was a bit aggro at he quietets of times, my shoves were called by K,2 and J8 I think.. Crazy... anway managed to get to HU which lasted a monsterous 1 hand. The aggro player shoved i had a 3:1 chip defisit at this poitn and had A5suited this was enough in my opinion to get back into it, I call and he shows 22, golden boy then flops 3,3,2 GG Flash close but no cigar... It was a nice £100 prize though and very pleasing.
Final Overall summary
Cash +£11.20 STT + £7.50 MTT + £81.53
Finished bankroll £601.23 Im delighted to not only finish in profit after my well documented (mainly by myself) bad first 2 days where no matter what I did I couldn't buy chips. But to finish in profit in all 3 types of poker. Not sure how many other TPers can say that ;-)
Its been a great experience playing/ railing and bantering with the other TPers and Matt and I hope im around for the next phase of Total Player.
I like to post a day after the night before thoughts so here goes on last night and my 3 days as a whole.
Very pleased with my results last night, too turn -£50 into +£100 is very pleasing. I dont think I played much different in day 3 to what I did in days 1 and 2 TBH. It just shows what an evil thing varience is. I did add a few moves into my play which I had been discussing with Matt, so was very pleasing to see that work and add new moves into my arsenal.
I want to thank everyone who has sent me PM's both today and all the way through since my initial pick. Its great to know I have so many people backing me in this!
Nothing more I can do now, just have to wait and see if Matt wants me in his top 3. I know there are VERY tough opponents to get past. Fingers crossed iv done enough

Awesome!
Who'd be Matt Broughton on Saturday?
a impossible task ahead for matt,
a very strong team he has picked,
good luck all on Saturday,
especially matt lol !
rover and out !
I think some credit to James, at least he destroyed the bankroll with style, didn't just finish on £490 or something like that,
Some awesome poker was played from what i saw, and good look to everyone for saturday night!
Oh and make sure you set the sky+ to record it unlike me, who had to wait till the repeat to see it, as i was on the phone on hold while it was on!
GL again, quality players
