    I was speaking to barry greenstein in the restroom duing the first break of the 10k HORSE event. He told me that he had been very intimidated by a british unkown, late registrant sat on his left. Afterwards i went to see to who this absolute baller was and i was surprised and proud to see sky's very own tony "tikay" kendall sitting there. Good luck tk!!!!!!

    Updates to follow

    Great updates by everyone(players included). How many sky players left Tikay/Sam? And is old man Paul Jackson or Timmyrara(cant remember real name at this time of night) still in the tournament?

    Both Paul Jackson & Timmy are clinging on grimly, with blinds at 1,000-2,000. They can both cash. Think Timmy has 45,000, & Paul 30,000.

    504 left.
     
    Wacko has some 60,000. 

    Arpad has 110,000.

    Paul Jackson just lost a 50,000 pot to leave him with 16,000 @ 1,200-2,400/400 after the current 20 minute break.

    We have 4 left and we are 25ish from the money.

    Tim Rowland has just doubled up with QQ> KJ and has 82k.

    I am going to sweat the money bubble with them and will hopefully return with good news.

    Gerard Gardner busted out just before the last break.

    Gerard was sitting comfortable on a stack of 62k but had an accident on an AA6 flop. Gerard was holding A10 whilst his opponet had AQ.

    480 left, 12 off the money.

    We are trying to nurse Paul Jackson over the line, but we need some positive vibes from you guys back home.

    This is tense, we are 10 from the money.

    Jac35 is clinging. The rest seem comfortable. Tikay and I are more stressed than those boys.

    BUBBLE TIME, & we have drama here.

    468 paid, 469 left.

    Paul Jackson has 4,600 @ 2,400-1,200/400. 

    He has the Button, but the antes will cost him 400 per hand.

    Can he cling on?

    Somehow, Paul Jackson clung on & cashed.

    Think he'll widen his range now with just under 2 Bigs.

    ...and Paul Jackson, somewhat carelessly imo, jammed his 2 Bigs with 6-7, got looked up by Carlos Mortensen, & is now bust. Still, $1,800 will ease the pain.

    We are down to 3 and all have at least 30 bigs. Lets go get some big cash. The rest of the qualifiers are already dreaming of a Sky Poker final table rail.

    Another bad beat.  He needs his ID to collect from the cage.  Such bad luck....


    P.S.  WP Jac

    I bust out not long before the money. I had a fab time. The guys over here really are working overtime to keep you posted.  Thanks Sam and Tikay.  I'm sure Dan is working his socks off too but I haven't seen him to much.

    Vegas is the nuts.

    Thanks James.

    As it happens, we've not seen Dan since Saturday either.

    Glad you enjoyed the experience. Vegas really is the Live poker nuts.

    Thanks for the comments guys.
    Thanks also to the Sky team. They've all looked after us brilliantly and the updates have been great.

    He did look a bit like Chan, Sam ;)

    This was the scene about an hour or so ago on the bubble. You can just make out Paul Jackson at the front really suffering.
