    In the minutes leading up to the start the hubbub was deafening, as everyone stood around & mingled, chatting 13 to the dozen, but then, after shuffle up & deal was announced, it suddenly went very quiet.

    Love the first 10 or 15 minutes of a live Comp, whilst the nerves are settling down.

    Blinds, number of runners, average stack, how much in the Prize Pool. Easy-peasy, here you go. This was a few minutes ago.

    The standard Casino "model" in the UK differs somewhat from Las Vegas.

    Here's the Aria, in Vegas;

    My maths is getting bad.
    Revised guesstimate
    4 million

    I jest, of course. How beautiful is the building which houses the 235?

    Great Northern Railway Company's Goods Warehouse

    Fantastic, huh? Vegas had not even been built in those days, but that building which houses the 235 is as good as the day it was built.

    Proper bit of brickwork, that.

    Here's the 235 from a different angle.

    Lovely scale, & sits so well in that plot of land.

    Chuffing lovely that.

    Better.

    In fact, I think that might just be spot on.
  • Tikay10Tikay10 Member, Administrator, Moderator Posts: 168,887

    My guesstimate is
    8 million

    Next time you tell me you have 4,000 in a DYM I'm not gonna believe you.

    Sky Mark finds the dream coup, all-in pre with the Aces v Kings, & holds for a full 2Xup.

    MBN.

    I just felt a small earthquake. Was that @MattBates losing his first ever flip?

    That would of been against me.... so close to folding .... which would of been incorrect in any situation pretty much.

    Waiting patiently to get back in
