    Really enjoying the UKPC, I prefer 6max so much more than full ring. I hope we get a chance to do it again.

    Good work by the staff, especially Sky Dan, he's doing a great job making people laugh and lightening the mood at the tables.

    Good luck Tim Wright in the main, just remember who told you to come and play this! That's worth 10% yeah?

    Can you ask Bobafett if he was the man I was talking to before the tournament ask if he was the man who won a lot of money on the cash tables in Ireland about £2000 I think. He said is name was Bob something but as I am Mr. memory man I have forgot wish him good luck from me even if it isn't the same man. Good luck to everyone else as well I really enjoyed my day TY Sky.

    Morning all.

    "bobafett's" real name is Paul, so I doubt it was him. Not sure I've ever seen him play cash.

    He has played, & run deep, in every UKPC, so in a way, it'd be some sort of justice if he won this. He's a Scot, from the Glasgow side I think (so he's not posh, like).
     

    Was great to meet you.

    The Turbo Flight of the mini kicked off at 10.30 this morning, needing 50 to get over the Guarantee line.

    There were 30 at the start, which has now become 43, so should be ok.

    Fingers crossed, it gets there (it will), which will mean all three of the 6 Max UKPC Events this week overed their guarantee.  

    There's a fair bit of nonsense spoken about overlay. Overlay is always bad, for everyone - but its actually worse for the players than the organisers. The organisers have to make up the shortfall somehow, & guess how they do that? Well in one way or another, it will come back from the players, be it less money spent on Promos, or smaller Guarantees or whatever.

    Anyway, it wont matter, as I'm sure it will cover.
