Morning.
A terrific day of sport awaits - Cricket, F1, Moto GP, Snooker, Golf, & even for the real football diehards, England v Albania. And Masters Golf is just 10 days away. What a life.
MTT traffic last night? mediocre I suppose, the numbers were acceptable but nothing different to an average Saturday night in recent weeks.

7 at 7 Bounty Hunter (£1,365)
ddomo won Mini Marksman earlier this month, & followed up with last night's 7 @ 7. He was also 3rd in a £400 BH yesterday afternoon.
In 3rd was Maggie_T - that's a brave alias to use these days - with 3PUTT_DAVE, a golfer of dubious ability one assumes - in 4th.

£1,000 Bounty Hunter (£1,160)
The popular crustacean Shrimpy28 is making quite a name for himself. Earlier this month he won Avenger Main & ran 3rd in BWBH on the same night for a £3,000+ payday, & he's had FT's this month for Mini, Turbo & Quicky amongst others, & then took down last night's £1k BH. Even more remarkable, he ended Friday - or started Saturday if you prefer - by running 2nd in Midex. In fact he did not go to bed for over 50 hours straight, so last night's win was even more remarkable. And if even more icing was needed on the Shrimp cake, he streamed last night's win too. Underneath that considerable exterior there may lurk a very good poker player indeed, or at least there would be if he were to take the game a little more seriously. I somehow fancy he prefers to under-perform but have fun.

Frantic002 is a new kid in town, less than 100 MTT's to his name, but is showing great promise. 2nd in last Sunday's Mini Major, he topped the field in last night's Sharpy Main for a ~£1,900 payday. One to keep an eye on.
3rd was Crushy, with PRhack making the news in 4th.
5th was 68Trebor, who we shall return to later in the thread.

£1,500 Mega Stack B/Hunter (£2,080)
After running 5th in Sharpy Main for £500+, 68Trebor won Mega for another £450. It's only a matter of days since his Bankroll Challenge topped £2,000, & in the blink of an eye he's over £3,000 now. Extraordinary. He keeps one of the best Diaries on the Forum where he regales us with tales of Supermarket management, new cars - he changes his car almost as often as @Jac35 - Willow the pooch & the stress of house-moving. If you are not already a regular reader, give it a try. Here's a link to it;The Return of 68Trebor

£2,500 Sheriff Bounty Hunter (£2,650)
MattBates really is the Sheriff. Here's his Sheriff FT record in 2021;
1st - 3 times
2nd - 4 times
3rd - 3 times
4th - 1 time
5th - 1 time
6th - 1 time
So that's his Sheriff bingo card completed.
He had a bit of a downturn recently, but I never once heard him moan about run-bad. I so want to be him when I grow up, though, ideally, just a little taller.
The runner-up here has a very good CV, but we've not seen much of him recently, his volume seems to be well down.
4th was roddy, 5th RogueCell & 6th Sharki0, in a typically tough Sheriff FT.

£1,500 Reload Rebuy B/Hunter (£2,100)
Reload went to luma7801, who has cashed in several Mini UKOPS events.
Miniman was 2nd. There was a period last year when SPT winner Miniman was carrying all before him, but he seems to have gone off the boil recently. I really hope his luck is about to turn.

£2,000 Turbo Bounty Hunter (£2,010)
Doooobs won Turbo for the 2nd time in 4 nights. He was also 2nd in it a week ago, so he's staking a claim to be Turbo King.
24 hours after winning Mega, Jscorgie was 2nd here.
4th was saymynamee, who begun the day by running 2nd in MidEx. He's on a very nice upswing at the moment.

£2,000 Quickdraw (£2,000)
RCord won this, which was especially pleasing after a bad loser posted this on the Forum 3 weeks ago;
"Pure set up for the regs, the regs will claim its not. Course they will y would they say anything else lol horrible calls all the time n getting insanely lucky!! If you don’t agree watch players like rcord play. Shocking player but ridiculously lucky."
Don't you just love players who can't take a beat like a grown-up?
5th was newdaddy - exactly the same position he finished in the same Tourney 3 nights earlier.

Runner-up GREGSTER was also 2nd in Reload a few nights earlier. Time he did a win.
I'm just happy to be making a few final tables, don't think I made it past late reg in 99% of tournaments in January and February...
Well done @68Trebor
Cheers Gregster, just unlucky you ran into me when the cards keep falling for me.
