The humidity & heat here are conducive to mosquitos & bitey things, & I've been eaten alive, so I'm not exactly feeling on top of the world, truth to tell.
Have the mosquitos no taste :-)
Though just out of curiosity does anyone know why :-
My wife and I have been to places and dined outside where the Mosquitos are, and they tend to eat my wife and leave me alone. Obviously this annoys the wife, but I cope quite well :-)
Before Tikay gets it in , maybe these mosquitos had taste :-)
In Response to Re: Punta Cana Classic Live Update : You should have taken Jeeves with you....or even Orford to take some of the strain off you. He could have even just fetched your drinks or something else he would be qualified to do Stick my name down for an assistant job for the next trip or Vegas. I would even be nice to everyone on the forum (like you have to) Posted by MAXALLY
that's just plain mean Alan poor tikay has enough to do already lol
In Response to Re: Punta Cana Classic Live Update : If you mean Alvez, not sure what happened (& never asked, none of my business) but for whatever reason he never made it to Punta Cana, which was a real shame. He was here last year, & always brightens up these Away trips. Posted by Tikay10
Ok thanks TKay yeah real shame. I'll ask him on fb
CxE1 has 80,000, with blinds 3k-6k/1k. 57 remain, with 54 to be paid. There are 5 stacks shorter than Vinny, though none of them less than around 50,000. Think he's canny enough to get to the money, unless he finds a big hand & gets coolered, he'll just find the right spots to get over the line. Meanwhile, PopsCoco has something in the 180,000 region.

He was down to around 5 bigs, & was in the big, facing an open & a jam.
He decided to make a three-ball with his A-4, & was not in terrible shape at all, against J-J & K-K.
The 4 flopped to increase his equity, but that was that, & it blanked out from there.
He finished around 50th, & collected a very nice $3,359 bonus on top of his Punta Cana adventure.
Considering he regged late as he was unwell, remained unwell throughout, & was on life support (chip wise, not in real-life) for most of Day 1, that was some performance.

Just been chatting with gonedoggin - he's a cracking lad - and the Devines, they are all off to the Italian Restaurant here for a spot of dinner.
Lesley has just won her 3rd SNG from 5 attempts.
We have been very lucky with this squad of qualifiers, all of them are an absolute delight to host.

56 left, 54 paid.
Otherwise, "no change".
We are on the bubble, & playing H4H.
No apologies for defusing the tension, but one unfortunate soul has just 8,000 chips. (1 Big Blind).
A round of applause, & a series of whoops & hollers signals that the bubble has burst.
I've not been & had a look yet, but am reasonably confident that our two guys are safe & well, & several thousand $$$'s better off.
CxE1 - 40,000
Coco - 180,000
CxE1 becomes ExC1
Sadly, Vinny's run has come to an abrupt end.
He was down to around 5 bigs, & was in the big, facing an open & a jam.

So that just leaves one, Mr CocoPops, but he's cruising along nicely with the better part of 200,000.
Players are now on a 15 minute break, before they reassemble for the last 2 levels of the day.
