UKOPS 14 £4,000 Rebuy (£6,040)
A long-range UKOPS double here, nagrom won Easter UKOPS 52 for £1,186, and now takes down UKOPS 14 Rebuy for a juicy £1,661. He has been here since 2009 or earlier, & Sharky state he was the 2nd most profitable MTT-er on the site in 2012, behind bawfizzle. We don't see so much of him these days, just a few hundo games this year, but it seems he can still get the job done.
A seriously tough FT too, look at that little lot.
Is it my imagination, or do Rebuys tend to be dominated by the better players? Might just be confirmation bias, I'm not sure, but it certainly seems to be the case in my mind.

Well now, Nitrogen is certainly making his presence felt. In a short period, & with less than 200 MTT's on his CV, this was his third 4 figure cash & his 2nd cash this UKOPS. In November he won the £6,000 BH, on UKOPS Day 1 he ran 2nd in UKOPS 01, he won a Sheriff just before Xmas, & now he takes a UKOPS Main for serious money. It seems he has been getting some coaching from Team Jonathon Little, judging by his Tweet which I've shown below. Well done Nitrogen.4th was HAYSIE who probably argued his way to the final.
Terrific effort by tai-gar, he was 3rd in Gold Rush Main for £433 two weeks ago, but 5th place here was worth a handsome £1,040.
Celebrating Arsenal's return to winning form, miniman88 was 6th. He won a BWBH in September, & a UKOPS in November, and of course an SPT, & I'm sure he'll fancy his chances in the £100,000 SPT Online which was announced yesterday.

Annemily graced a few Mini FT's earlier this year, so the win here would have tasted super sweet.

UKOPS 17 £3,000 Bounty Hunter (£3,700)
A 24 hour double for Sunday8pm, Monday's Turbo & last night's UKOPS 17. Well done Ben, keep it going mate.
Formosina performed the near miracle of running 2nd in a 146 runner affair without taking a single head prize. I suppose if you make a final with zero bounties, folks don't target you so much? I may of course be talking out of my back passage.

jakescol ran 3rd in UKOPS 17 & promptly followed up with the win in UKOPS 18.
ctbn had his 3rd Final Table in 4 nights, two of which he somehow won. There's no explaining that.

FALMER took this, & by way of a piece of trivia, Falmer is a town in East Sussex just outside Brighton, & is where Brighton & Hove Albion's splendid new Stadium is sited right alongside the A27. It's also just a few miles east of where that dreadful Shoreham Air Show plane crash occurred a few years ago. If it's useless trivia you want, I'm your man.

Highly recommend Poker Coaching as a resource and Jonathan Little has plenty of free things as well for anyone looking to learn.
Best thing about poker is that there is always another level.
All that aside I'm on a monster heater at the moment. I deposited £100 in mid November because I was thoroughly burnt out on massive field MTTs elsewhere and was looking to play purely to chill. I hadn't played on here since 2016.
89 tournaments later I'm 8k up and ROI is 305% which is thoroughly ridiculous and stretching probability to the limit. But I've had enough downswings to enjoy one the other way. Loving the site and the community - it has a live poker vibe which I am really enjoying.
Absolute blast last night with good chat in game with a lot of people - hat off to @x_BRAD_x (amended thanks @Tikay10 ) who satted in and cashed.
And tip of the hat to @MarcScot who was gracious in defeat after this savage last hand that proves no matter how much you study - sometimes you have to bink the river.
@Nitrogen
The guy you mentioned was @x_BRAD_x so I've tagged him & hopefully he'll see it.
A most gracious winners speech, & yes, that was some river in the final hand. No matter, as we all know we take plenty of nasty beats along the road so no need to feel guilty about the occasional lucky river.
