I believe that Jac35 v MilitantG are scheduled to play today (must have been saved for the TV cameras).
The 2 joint ante-post favourites ajmilton and Itsover4u have been posting on the call out thread but are yet to get it on.
The other 3 seem to be a bit one sided in terms of call-outs.
So as things stand poppy765, Pompeynic and lisa1962 are at risk of being eliminated.
But we don't want to have to do that so if you see them at tables give them a nudge, or better yet have a means to contact them outside of skypoker - please do!
In Response to Re: The Heads Up FA Cup - Official rules/draw/results thread (1st Round has started - Please complete by 5th October) : VWP Lars, Congrats on 2-0 win, gl next round. Good Games. Thanks Phantom Posted by ellroy84
Awww Ellroy unlucky, so you finally managed to get it sorted after how long?? lol
Shame I missed it. Hope to see you on the tables. Wp Larson
Congrats on your win Phantom, and also congrats on your patience in organisning these fixtures. Really baffles me how people enter something and dissapear but such is life, obviously first and foremost I hope all is ok with them, but from my experience of running many competitions outside of sky poker its just human nature people just dont think about the organising hazards. All in all though most have played ball so thats very positive.
Just important you are aware Phantom that we do appreciate your efforts.
Didn't happen i'm afraid. I think something probably just came up for Militant. We'll try again soon. At least i got some practise in. A couple of people regged the games Posted by Jac35
I guess they just smelled the value?
Probably best not to reg unless you know your opponent is online and expecting you.

Cheers Ger.
Getting excited about the Round 2 draw. Better get working on the guest presenter.
Hope poppy, lisa and nic come good and these fixtures are sorted.
If not Mrs Duck and I think someone else have enquired so I might be able to play some reserves
No more results and the deadline approaches. I'll be wearing a yellow tie in honour of this. I suppose it is possible that someone is under a ban of some sort and if so they would be unable to tell me and sky probably couldn't tell me. The onus is on Itsover4u and lisa1962 to make contact and if they don't - today - they will have to be scratched. So MrsDuck you are first in line on the waitlist and could be in with a chance of a substitute appearance - are you still up for this? If our missing in action pair turn up, or if they are subsitituted I will allow time for those 1st round fixtures to complete. Whatever happens, I will make the full draw so round 2 can get under way. Posted by Phantom66
Whoooop.
Continued great work with this phantom, in my experience of these things to have gotten all but 2 games off so quickly is very good going.
Looking forward to a home tie in round 2.
I think Lambo is still in, so although the field looks tough we're not quite at the "there are no easy games at this stage" stage yet.

So the deadline passed without any further games being played.
Therefore I have awarded ajmilton and aok25 walkovers to the 2nd round.
Unfortunately I guess this shows the importance of a deadline as the rest of the field could be held up indefinitely waiting for a small minority who had been inactive on the tables and forum for several weeks.
Hope you are ok Itsover4u as you indicated you had issues preventing you from playing. If you had been able to confirm to me before the deadline that you could play in the next couple of days I would have kept your spot open.
And so the field for the Round 2 draw is confirmed as...

Note you have new numbers for the draw (27 qualifiers in the order of the 1st round draw and the 37 with byes in the order of their original number.
A special guest has been booked and I should make the draw today. Can't promise on the post production as that takes a little longer but I will have it on Youtube and here as soon as I can.
