Sunday Major
The winner, & playing only his 2nd MTT on Sky Poker in a fortnight was the elegantly-aliased
@pricktim, who collected over £4,000 for his troubles.
Runner-up was
@rndmmuppet, with 3rd place going to
@eaturchips who was at Road to Manchester on Saturday, so that paid for his bar bill. Almost.
7th was
@alancarr12, and 8th
@TONY509.
Finishing back to back in 16th to 20th places was a right line-up of Sky Poker reprobates in
@rspca12,
@AB0151 @Akooo,
@StayOrGo &
@HAYSIE.
Comments
This one got across the Guarantee line by just 10 runners, with @Cammyspazy finishing top of the pile, having got the better heads up of @goldnballz.Mini Major
Close up in 9th was a recent returnee to the Forum, in @MynaFrett, with @BlairReid 10th & @BooBooTheB 17th. Sneaking into the money in 21st was @GSmith13, who was in for a long evening.
There was yet another cash for @oynutter, not much, but he's going along nicely now, & those who know him will be delighted, I'm sure.
Sheriff
What a tough final this must have been, but Mr Mean Machine himself, aka @GSmith13 beat them off to book the win. with @S1D runner-up, closely followed by a posse of hotshots in @FeelGroggy, @chicknMelt, @Haydenx37 and @GFKIJKLL. If you can whop that lot you deserve the win.7th to 12th was no easier, with @MikeyW94 7th, then @scotty77, @lundie, @gypsyluck, @alancarr12, and @MattBates, the last-named no doubt happy to beat @cpfc_2010 by a spot, with @rspca12 next home.
Quickdraw
A quickfire double for @GSmith13 as he won Sheriff too, followed home this time by @GFKIJKLL, @Itsover4u, @Jamesy955, @kodiak1985 & in 6th place @SenorBegs who has had a quiet time lately by his standards.
In the "what are the chances?" department, @MikeyW94 & @scotty77, the 8th & 9th in the Sheriff, occupied the exact same 2 positions again. With @GSmith13 booking the win in both events, that means 1st, 8th & 9th finished identically in both tourneys. You'd get decent odds about that happening I fancy.
SPT Las Vegas Semi-Final
10 seats were on the line, & they finished like this;

@CxE1

@pompeynic
@chicknMelt
The unfortunate bubble went to @chrisdonkb.
Having said that , some minnows manage to avoid these goliaths to go on swimming and enjoying themselves.
Never give up, never surrender.

Yeah really unlucky for Chris on the bubble, seems pretty determined to get to Vegas this year and i'm backing him to do it,
