Morning.
Following Thursday's trend, numbers were not too bad again last night - all things considered. Overall, down slightly w-o-w, but Lockdown easing should not be under-estimated, it's a great thing for us all, but not so good for Online Poker. 7 @ 7 had not broken £1,000 the previous 4 nights, but made £1,225 last night, and for balance, the £8,000 BWBH missed by a rather painful £600. Them swings & swongs don't just affect players, the sites get them too.
The PGA golf continued, and once again, it has to be said, what a brute of a course. I fancy a really exciting Day 3 & 4.
Today also sees Qualifying for the Monaco F1 GP, Indy 500 practice, & Round 1 of World Superbikes. Not forgetting the Champo semi-final play-offs, where Brentford are set to miss out for the xxxth consecutive year.
And let's not forget Eurovision is tonight. Or better still, let's forget it. It was always synonymous with Terry Wogan, & I was quite shocked this morning to realise he had passed away some 5 years ago. No idea who hosts it these days. Probably some naff reality "star".
What a time to be alive. Enjoy your weekend.

7 at 7 Bounty Hunter (£1,225)
3,500 games on Sky Poker without a single mention for jellyjim, but he broke the mould last night when he took down the biggest 7 @ 7 of the week.
His win denied victory to PKRPar despite taking 12 head prizes. He also finalled the Mega & had a few other small cashes. Decent night really.

£8,000 Big Weekend Bounty Hunter (£8,000)
I was busy watching the golf last night, but took time out to look at a few lobbies, & it seemed to me that Chrismags had this sewn up a long way from home. His record in BWBH is quite extraordinary - in the last 6 months he has won it twice, as well as running both 2nd & 3rd. Can anyone boast a better record in BWBH? In the same timeframe, he's also run 4th in both a UKOPS High Roller & a Sunday Major.
2nd & 3rd were usual suspects in the form of ozzieowen & Arrogant, both of whom have had a solid week. Very good players, both of them.
SPT Las Vegas winner Granite89 was 4th, with 5ausages & MrTucker 5th & 6th. MrTucker later went on to finish 8th in the Main, too.

£10,000 Avenger Rebuy B/Hunter (£11,180)
The Main fell to bustout44, who has been here for what seems like eternity, I certainly remember him from the days of Sky Poker TV & The Open. Plenty of good results too, & at this time last year he won 2 Mains (Sharpy & Marksman), and a Mini. He's also got a Mini UKOPs on his report card.
The other eye-catcher here was @IVIystical who was 5th for his 2nd biggest cash all-time - the biggest being his fun-run in the SPT Online at the end of January. He went on to Twitter early this morning to have a little chirp - & why not? - & received plenty of warmth via "Likes". He's a really popular lad, & it's easy to see why. Well done Sam.

£4,000 Mini Avenger Rebuy B/Hunter (£5,500)
Oh my, waller won the Mini, despite being, I'm quite sure, a little tired & distressed. He really has kicked on in the last 6 months. In broad terms, it took him 12 years on Sky Poker to make £6,000 profit, then DOUBLED that in the last 6 months. And his Friday night Avenger record is outstanding - since last September, in Avenger Main, he has finished 1st, 1st, 2nd, 4th & 6th, & now he's added the Mini version. Hands up who has a better Avenger record?
Once again, Uncle Ungo ran well, finishing 4th. There's a camel who loves his poker & enjoys every minute.

£1,000 Mega Stack B/Hunter (£1,500)
The winner was 3rd in Reload earlier this month, which is the sum total of my knowledge of him. Or her. Or they.
AlexaAJ was 3rd, seems to have cashed every night this week, & Dour Scot had his 2nd cash of the sesh.
In 5th was Sky Poker's biggest fan, cymru35, who absolutely loves this place.

£2,000 Sheriff Bounty Hunter (£2,000)
Again, I have very little data on joe575, but I do clearly recall him writing in to the TV Show about 8 or 10 years ago, asking when resizable tables would be available on Sky Poker. Naturally, like all Sky Poker software enhancements, they appeared within weeks.
He had to beat a real tough table last night, look at that little delegation from Team Serious.
Turbo specialist Mr Channing entered this by mistake, but still finished 8th.

£1,500 Turbo Bounty Hunter (£1,860)
A double on the night for BeachBody, winning both the £1,000 BH @ 20.15 & Turbo. He was 3rd in Sunday Major earlier this week too.
roddy, skyflyer & scotty all featured too.
Mr Channing's attempt for a third Turbo win in 4 nights was derailed spectacularly early.

Friday night's two Avengers are the biggest of the week (Sunday Major excepted), & I think both of last night's winners deserve POTD.

Our musical rogues gallery so far includes;
Morrisey/The Smiths
Bruce Springsteen
Elvis Costello
Nirvana
U2
Today we add the Diva of all Divas. She made exactly one good record, after which it was all hype & publicists.
Here's the only decent track she ever made.
