Updated OP to include MrsDuck as the 2nd winner, well played.
Still 3 seats left.
P.S. Wynne, I heard your question about on 861 the other night and yes you will find at 10/20NL that a lot of players are just waiting for very very strong hands, just gotta keep that in mind and not pay them off light and nick more small pots off them. I can't speak for what it will be like at 50NL+

When I play cash it's usually 20NL, and I have to say, the people I sit with tend to mix it up a bit. Can't say I've noticed the 'only aces and kings' mentality much at that level.

Yeah there are definitely plenty that mix it up, some in good ways, some not so much but I bet you mostly play MC on nights where it's being shown on 861?
There's definitely more funky stuff going on when it's being shown on 861 cos people want their great 3 barrel bluff to be shown or their great hero call or whatever but even still you can rely on a few people to be very very solid because 1) that's what they do and 2) they're waiting to pick off the players trying to do fancy stuff for TV.
I'm not having a go at them at all, just like anything in poker... they put their money down they can do what they like, only mentioned it cos Wynne asked about it on 861.
FWIW, doesn't just have to be the AA/KK brigade, can also be the 'no set, no bet' bridgage or lots of other things but there are usually 2-3 people per table at any 20NL table where if they're betting postflop, you can be d@mn sure it's for pure value.

Thanks Paul, please PM me your thoughts,much appreciated.
Do you want to turn £5 into £200? Well here's your chance! At this stage, it's a proposal to check the level of interest... Sky are looking at starting a new promotion giving you the chance to spin up a small amount at the cash tables into something that could really come in handy over the festive period. What Have You Got To Do Start with 50xBB at 10NL, spin it up to 50xBB for the next stakes up, move to that level and spin it up to 50xBB for the next stakes up and repeat for the following stakes 10NL /> 20NL > 50NL > 100NL > 200NL. So.... Sit with £5 @ 10NL, when you have £10... Sit with £10 @ 20NL, when you have £25... Sit with £25 @ 50NL, when you have £50... Sit with £50 @ 100NL, when you have £100... Sit with £100 @ 200NL, when you have £200.... you win! The Rules 1) The challenge must be completed at Mastercash tables 2) Players can only 1-table Mastercash tables during 'a run' so that Sky can verify it was completed correctly. 3) No top ups allowed at the tables during your 'run'. The first 5 people to complete the challenge and leave their 200NL table with £200 will get a £33 Bounty Hunter seat on top of their £195 profit! Please post on here if you think it's a good idea and would give it a shot. Winners 1) BBMike 2) MrsDuck (3 seats left) Posted by Lambert180
this sounds like a good idea im in for it but when does it finish
Hi Wynne, gl! I found the second level the hardest, once I got to £25 I completed all the other levels in one go! The last was scary because of all the other massive stacks and it was tempting to keep the £100

On to 20NL!
Back to level 1!
Guess I will have to go back to level 1?
