Good morning.
A mixed night, with most featured MTT's doing acceptably well except the Main which incurred a nasty shortfall. Maybe the late evening Andy Murray match did not help.
I'm not a tennis fan, but it was good to see Andy Murray win his match. I always enjoy seeing a
Scot Brit do well at Wimbers.
Anyone see the repeated documentary on John McEnroe last night? When he was a player I detested him, but he's aged wonderfully & I love him to bits now. If you can find it on Catch Up or I-Player it's highly recommended.

7 at 7 Bounty Hunter (£987)
waller02 took this for the second time this year.
He spent 11 years here, from 2009 to the Autumn of 2020, to earn a profit of some £6,000, and in the subsequent 9 months he has doubled that. 2021 highlights have been 1st, 2nd & 4th in Avenger, 2nd in Marksman Main, a Mini win, two 7 @ 7 wins, and a deep run into 9th in Easter UKOPS HR. I think part of his success is that plays well within his 'roll & so he's not afraid to lose. Playing with scared money is one of the worst things a poker player can do & is what leads to so much angst. Ryan seems to take winning & losing the same either way.

The old pointy-elbowed ctbn is such a pain to play against, & he took the £1k from a really decent FT.
PRHack must be getting tired of finishing 2nd, he did so in Tuesday's Summit & did it again here. Even so, most of us would swap wuth him in a heartbeat.
loosecamel was 3rd, the same spot he occupied in Sunday's £6,000 BH.
We've not seen a great deal of PBKR in June, but he did win a Mini & a Quickdraw, & was 4th here. He's won a good few bob elsewhere too. However, this was not his finest hour as you will see if you scroll down to the POTD section.

£5,000 Predator Bounty Hunter (£5,000)
WIG23 won the Main, & he's been threatening a big result recently. 10 days ago he was 3rd in Marksman Main, last Saturday whilst running 4th in the Mini he somehow took 21 head prizes, & now gets the coveted Main Event win.
MacMonster was 4th, well done Ian, newdaddy 5th & Mr Bates 6th.

What a final this was, with _Smoothe_ (who won a Main in May) eventually & deservedly taking it down, but not without a fight.
spearsy, winner of Sunday's £6,000 BH (from a Free Entry) came up just short in 2nd.
For the second time in 6 weeks, aynaricol ran third in the Mini. Three-handed she was the meat in a big stack sandwich & a bit handcuffed, & sod's law being what it is she was card-dead. Eventually she identified the correct spot with K-Q & was very happy to be racing against 5-5, but despite having 10 outs on the river failed to do a get.
Equally pleasing was mumsie in 6th, especially as I think he's more of a cash game player. This Forum & Community would be a far worse place without the help he gives me under the radar.

I can't tell you much about skyflyer except they seem to be super aggro & does rather well from it.
Preston's finest, MP33, enjoys the Mega & has now finished 1st, 2nd & 5th in the last 6 weeks or so.

£1,500 Sheriff Bounty Hunter (£1,800)
A lovely double for Granite89, taking Sheriff for the second time in 3 nights.
Quite a tough FT this, with Arrogant, Dooobs, skyflyer & heddoh all present & correct.
Big shout-out to runner-up SGK1968, who showed much improved form to be 2nd in Tuesday's Quickdraw, then 2nd again against a really tough table in this last night.

Not awarded today.
However, we do have a new award to announce today, which will only be awarded in exceptional circumstances.
The Billy Let-Down Award
This award, sponsored today by @The--Don goes to the man who made a complete pig's ear of the £1,000 BH Final. He had double average when it started & in the end he was grateful for 4th. He had a shocker.
@PBKR
As waller won 7 @ 7 & is a big Elton fan, here's the man doing Goodbye Yellow Brick Road during his Million Dollar Piano Caesars Palace residency in Las Vegas which grossed over $131 million at the box office.
