We have lost Timmy unfortunately. Still a decent payday of $1,610 for his efforts. With 15 BB's left Timmy's A7 was no match for the chip leader's KJ. GG Timmy! Posted by markycash
A big move by Rektsai. He was nursing 26k the last time I visited but on this last visit he was raking in more chips than he was able to quickly count.
Also bumped into Hotshot75 in the Amazon room. He stayed on to rail some of the players and absorb the atmosphere of the WSOP. He has really enjoyed his time here immensley.
Thanks for the support everyone and big thank you to Tikay and Mark for there SICK updates. Super happy to cash 3 years in row. No more poker for me now going to enjoy the rest of Vegas with my sister and then a few days in LA Posted by TimmyRaRa
Great stuff Timmy, enjoy LA, & give my best regards to Lizzie.
In Response to Re: Little One Drop Day 2 & the Sky Poker Magnificent SEVEN : Hi Mr Pomms - was lovely to meet you and your lady wife on Monday. I played on Wednesday but went out around level 6. Really enjoyed it though. My husband has since had me under lock and key - forcing me to go shopping, watch a few shows and eat at a lot of restaurants lol. Wish I was at the Rio today to cheer the boys on but alas again I'm being dragged to a show (The Reve) at the Wynn. Hope you and your good lady are enjoying your time in Vegas. Posted by IrishRose
Nice one Rose, and likewise was good to meet you, glad Mr Rose is enjoying himself.

Cheers Timmy. Brilliant job cashing three years on the bounce!
Was great to meet yourself and Lizzie. Hope you have a brilliant time in LA.
It's a bit surreal walking into Amazon Room at the moment.
Only two WSOP Tournaments are still in play, then that's it for 2017 - the Main, & the Little One Drop.
Both are in the same room, & both are at the post-bubble stage where players are busting left right & centre.
And as each table "breaks", it is being dismantled & carted away.
The whole room was full this morning, not a spare seat or table.
Now, two whole quadrangles of tables & seats have already been removed, revealing great expanses of carpet.
Next week, it will be full of Pool Tables, as the World Pool thing is taking place here. (The Main Event will move up the corridor to the Brasilia Room).
The latest stacks with around 30 minutes until the next break...
mattprawn has worked some magic and is back up to 60k. His AJ holding in an all in versus A7.
JCordy is up to 196K after his JJ found a J high flop versus JKs. His opponent did have a flush draw but JCordy managed to hold and haul in a lovely pot.
cpfc_2010 is struggling to find nice spots but is still in the mix with 55k.
Stacker is really plowing along very nicely indeed. He is leading the way for the Sky players at the moment with a whopping 210k chip stack.
Rektsai continues to rebuild after being down at 26k earlier today. He is now sitting looking at 120k in chips.
NickD49931 has bobbed up and down a bit today as he looks to make some big moves and is currently sitting with 105k.
Mattprawn has just dropped into the media room to report his exit in 373rd place for $2,111.
Matt had a diamond flush draw and was happy to try and build a big stack and go for the deep run. He therefore played it aggressively but his opponent had AA and wasn't in the mood to fold and the aces held up.
Another player who appears to have thoroughly enjoyed the trip. Great showing Matt, cashing for the 2nd year in a row! Nice to meet you and hopefully see you at one of the upcoming SPT events.

Well what a fantastic experience, made all the more so by Tikay and Mark's regular updates, sound advice and encouragement.
Really enjoyed the tournament. I rode my luck at times, at one point on Wednesday I had less that 2k in chips. In the end I lost out in a move that could have taken me north of 100k, but no complaints, no bad beat and no regrets!
Thanks also for the support home and away. Updating the forum helped keep me focussed, thanks for tolerating the self indulgence.
Good luck to the rest of the sky players, must be in a good spot from some really great results.
