Good morning.
Well the Easter UKOPS party is over & I felt a general sense of being "flat" yesterday, but as it happened numbers were still pretty good. There were 2 x £10,000 guarantees last night & both covered, one by 48%, the other 40%, & the Mini came in at more than double, so there's still plenty of action to be found.
I've added an extra MTT to the Daily Report schedule today, the £5,000 Turbo BH that now runs at 10pm. I made that decision when I saw it in the Lobby yesterday, & in true tikay-bok style, it missed by ~£500. I did a double take when I saw that number, but it's correct, so I'm guessing that will be transferred to Sky James "Keep An Eye On This One" file.
£3,000 BH @ 7pm £3,900
£1,000 BH @ 7.30pm £1,680
£10,000 Gold Rush Main £14,790
£2,000 Gold Rush Mini £4,235
£10,000 Summit £14,050
£5,000 Turbo BH £5,000

£3,000 Bounty Hunter (£3,900)
I had no previous memory of the winner, never been active on the Forum & according to Sharky this was his first ever - & only - MTT here. Quite the arrival, if true.
Runner-up 1319 was the sat-master last night, playing an absolute ton of them & winning several. He won a £3 All-In Sat to this & emerged with £640, & later in the evening ran 3rd for over £400 in that £5,000 Turbo BH at 10pm.

The Melt had not won an MTT since Sunday, though in his defence he never played on Monday so I guess he maintained his average. On a "grind station" thread yesterday (a what?) he posted a photo of his set up, very impressive it was too. It included two cushions, one stuffed with the finest eider down money can buy, the other with £50 notes won on Sky Poker.
Lovely to see Cheezy in 3rd, not seen or spoken to him in ages. Hope you are keeping well mate.

£10,000 Gold Rush (£14,790)
rossybee16 made 4 headline finals in March, & then this month ran 2nd in UKOPS 07, so this win was due.
2nd was covid1984, one of at least 10 Covid prefixed aliases on Sky Poker. Most of them popped up in March & then disappeared, but we clearly still have a few active. They can of course have a perfectly valid & respectful reason for that alias.

kitten69 was 5th in the £10,000 Hitman in early April, 4th in the 7 @ 7 on Sunday and eventually got his paws on a win in this last night.

£10,000 Summit Bounty Hunter (£14,050)
The somewhat bland VANILLAAAA was last spotted running 5th in the Sunday Major a month or so back.
In October 2019 bharwood08 was 3rd in Hitman for £450. He then went MTT-AWOL for 6 months before popping up with a minor cash in UKOPS last week. 2nd place here, worth £1,845 is easily his biggest ever score on Sky Poker.
ARROGANT, 4th in the 7pm BH, went one spot better here and was rewarded with around 3 times as much.

£5,000 Turbo Bounty Hunter (£5,000)
Missing a £5,000 guarantee by £1,400 is like a striker having a shot on goal go out for a throw-in. Let's hope it's a back of the net job tonight, assuming he gets on the pitch.
Winner hozzer had a couple of UKOPS cashes, but I fancy this was a PB for him.
Decent BH double for 1317 who was 3rd in the 7pm BH & repeated the feat here.
6th was Frankking who tried to stamp his authority non the table.

£1,500 Quickdraw (£2,150)
This was surely one of the toughest Quickdraw Finals in a very long time, dominated by big hitters who regularly smash it out of the park.

I don't know a deal about the winner, but he was on site until around 3am playing £20 & £50 Turbo DYM's against the likes of TimmyRaRA & the mightily impressive Die_hard.
It was a brace of 2nd places on the evening for covid1984, this one & the £10,000 Gold Rush Main.

£1,000 Rewards Freeroll (1,826 entries)
1,826 runners for this against 1,914 on Monday. Once a player qualifies for Rewards Freeroll that's it, he is entitled to play it all 5 nights that week. And yet, every week, the entries start out at the top of the range on Monday then gradually decline as the week progresses. I've no idea why that is.

Thanks mate.
The Forum has mellowed considerably, very few of Team Obnoxious are still here. You'd be fine.
Are you sure? 124 entries plus 27 re entries.
Ahh, I was just the £1,000 adrift then, my bad. That's SO much better. As it happens, it's been cut to £3,000 from tonight, so a bit of headroom now.
Not if I keep telling them it's dropped a bag & a half. Fortunately they take no notice of what I say. Good call that.
