Morning.
MTT numbers were broadly flat w-o-w, though worth noting that the Major had it's best numbers for a month. I keep expecting numbers to collapse - time of year, Lockdown easing - but there seems to be a resistance level. The big test of course will be May 17th - a week today - when our illustrious PM confirms further significant Lockdown easing. We've all been cooped up for so long, I don't think too many of us will mind guarantees dropping if it means some sense of normality returns & we can all get out & about.

7 at 7 Bounty Hunter (£1,211)
Pleased to see MAGPIETYKE take this, his best score since he won UKOPS01 at the end of March.
neenio (2nd) is having a wonderful 2021. He's won two Main Events, the 7 @ 7 twice, and he owns that £1k BH @ 7.30pm, having won it FIVE times this year.
In 4th was HAMSTER78, who might just be the best Mesocricetus auratus on Sky Poker.

£6,000 Bounty Hunter (£7,620)
Goodness me, fancy these two doddery old so & so's running 1st & 2nd in a £6,000 affair. They've both been with Sky Poker since the year dot, & know each other in real life thanks to meeting up at SPT's. I doubt either of them have spent too much time studying or discussing the relative merits of GTO v exploitive, push fold charts, solvers, blockers, stakers or any other ers. They just log in, reg up (with their own money), play by feel & enjoy their poker. God bless them both. Well, God bless Solack. Not so sure about the awkward one.
3rd was grinddd, with Palace Bloke 5th.

£15,000 Sunday Major (£16,800)
Many congrats to seikus for achieving the extremely rare feat of winning Sunday Major twice in three weeks. It's not that it was an easy FT either - FuzzyDare (4th) won it a week ago, & jordz16 (5th) took it down this time last month.
Plenty of familiar faces came up just short, including chrisdonkb, Uzi_lover (a real blast from the past), lolufold, loosecamel, Whizzy, hughjarse, yobbie, destinycod & PBKR.

£2,000 Mini Major (£2,050)
2nd in the Mini Major three weeks ago, jawzindawz made no mistake this time & emerged on top of the heap. Since March he's also won two Main Events & run 2nd (to jordz16) in the Major.
Runner-up zzgoose win Mini Hitman a fortnight ago.
yobbie (3rd) came quite close to FTJ money, 23rd in the Major (for which he won entry in a Freeroll) & 3rd here.

£1,500 Mega Stack B/Hunter (£1,620)
Wurzelboy gets his first ever namecheck by wining Mega.
What a day for Shrimpy28. Started by winning MidEx, & after a good night's sleep he enjoyed a vegan breakfast, a 10 mile run, an hour working out in the gym, then went on to finish 2nd in Mega. As a physical specimen, he's right up there with @rspca12.

£2,000 Sheriff Bounty Hunter (£2,500)
ozzieowen took Sheriff for the 4th time in 2 months, & in doing so, rather rained on NOSTRI's parade, as it meant NOSTRI came up one spot shy of a 2nd Sheriff win inside a week. NOSTRI also ran deep in both the £6k BH & Mini Major. The improvement in his game is quite remarkable, & he's now only 13 points worse than @Shrimpy28 in the Sharky ability ratings.

For achieving the exceptionally rare feat of winning Sunday Major twice in three weeks.....
@seikus
There must be scores of cover versions of "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" & as it's such a great piece of music they are all good.
I happened across this version by Eric Clapton & Peter Frampton last night, at the Crossroads Guitar Fessie. One of the best I've seen - maybe 2nd only to the Jeff Beck version at Ronnie Scott's Club.
@NoseyBonk
Yes, I'm familiar with that. Great line up of guitarists on that, though I'm no fan of George Harrison's son. (Is his name Diawon or something?)
