Hi Tikay and guys.Don't manage to get in the forum as much these days. Whatever happened to SKY POKER'S star WSOP player Will [pokerbcity] Brewin? Does he no longer play here or have his previous adventures allowed him to buy in direct this year?
Can you tell me the dates of the April & May VLV Finals please? Posted by SoLack
Hi Solly.
I'm not actually sure (= I don't know), but we could try to have an educated guess!
The MARCH Final will be Sunday 4th April. (Next weekend).
The APRIL Final - this is just my guess - will be on Sunday 2nd May.
The MAY Final would probably be Sunday 6th of June, though with the Vegas WSOP ME less than a month after that, & the need for players to make plans, etc, & for Flights & Hotels to be booked, it MIGHT be the previous Sunday, 30th May.
If & when I hear the exact dates, I'll let you know.
You are trying to qualify for it, I assume? Good Luck, it'd be wonderful to have you out there.

Hi Bobcat.
By coincidence, I spoke to Will Brewin earlier this week, on the telephone.
He is currently having a little break from Online Poker, hardly playing Online, but playing a lot of Live Events, both Tourneys & Cash, & in fact, lJAMESl bumped into him at one of the GUKPT Events.
He remains very warm to Sky Poker, & although he has to speak for himself, I think he hopes to qualify for Vegas again on Sky Poker. It would be something else, at his tender age, to notch up a hat trick of Qualifying & Cashing in the WSOP Biggie via Sky Poker.
I don't think it's his intention to fork out the $10,000 in cash - few pros do or would, qualifying is the preferred route. So whether he qualifies on Sky Poker, or elsewhere remains to be seen, but I think there is a desire by him to try & go for the Hat-Trick.
Nice to know he's doing ok. Without wishing to detract from the skills and play of any of the guys and girls trying to qualify for this years adventure [good luck all btw],it would lend a certain kind of magic to the whole proceedings if he were to do it again under the Sky Poker banner and cash, if not possibly final table this time round.
If he does qualify this again this year I might just get the wallet out and have a little flutter on him cashing again!

And so say all of us. In fact, to tell the truth, that was exactly why I rang him. It'd be - if I may dare use a term which is so out-of-fashion these days - rather nice if he did.
The Team Sky Poker guys & gals will have a ball, either way, I promise, & so will the folks back home, via Live Updates & photos & stuff, but if Will were in the Team, all the better.
I actually have a hunch that young Mr Dan Brown is going to go on to make quite a name for himself, & his presence in Vegas will enrich the Sky Poker Community no end, as he is, very much, "one of us", & he communicates well.
Sunday's Semi-Final now has FIFTY runners, with more still to come, & it's gonna be a tough field. Still, even now, there are FIVE Final Seats Guaranteed on Sunday, to add to the 6 already there, so that's 11, & maybe we are on our way to 20, & TWO Packages in the first of the three VLV Finals? Time will tell, but next Sundays Final wll deffo have at least 1 x £10k package, AND a BIG lump of cash for 2nd, even if not a second £10k package.
By the bye, as anyone who has played poker for a while would know, Super-Sats the world over, Live & Online, are occassionally the subject of collusion, or attempted collusion, at or around the seat bubble time.
If you suspect, or see, this, you MUST report this, direct to Customer Care. (Not on the Forum please, it's not the correct medium for that).
All complaints ARE investigated, & properly adjdicated, & sorted out, in as fair a way as possible.
And despite what you may read in places, reporting Collusion, Multi-Accounting, or any other form of non-compliance, is not "grassing" or "snitching" - it's every poker players duty.
Surprisingly - though it's a fact - many inexperienced players, of whom there are many on Sky Poker, do not realise that such practices are, shall we say, improper.
sky is really the best way to qualify for the main event and i hope they run it next year when i will be 21 in time for the event. other sites they have alot more satellites and cheaper buy ins but you have to get through at least 3-4 tournies with 100's of runners, sometimes thousands in the first one as its the cheapest. to get a package on here you have to go through less tournies and probably the max amount of players you will have to get past will be 100 or so in the semi, in the final you will probably have to get past 18 if its top 2 etc.
After a corking 99 runner Quarter tonight, here's the new Line-Up for Sunday's Semi, 56 already, with one more Quarter-Final (FIVE PM Sunday) still to come.
These Super Six are already booked for the Final on Sunday 4th, & with two more Semi's still to come - it could yet make 2 x £10,000 packages, it sure wont be far short. 6 or more will join them tomorrow, then one more week of Quarters.
Good luck to all in this , ive seen daveyzz a few times and what a good player he is so think he has a good chance but best wishes to you all .im sadly working in russia between may and sept but next year i will get my vegas ticket .
Today's Quarter has just ended, 5 went through, & as of now, this is the line-up. 69 runners means 6 finalists & a nice chunk for 7th, but Direct Buy-Ins may yet get it up to 70, & thus 7seats.
There will be a Mini-Update on the Forum starting around 9.pm, maybe a little after.
Just a quick Gl to all the players, especially to Nutter, after his deep run in the Total Player I think it would be fitting for Ben to get to the Final, along with Sparce.
Gl All, Hope to see you on the felt April 4th. if I ever get the time to play a sat for it lol

8.30pm, & there are 63 runners so far for tonight's Quarter-Final, with the Tourney starting at 9pm.
Could yet be another bumper field - 100, maybe?
5 mins to go - & 87 Reg'd!
Sure to top 90, maybe fall just short of the ton.
99!
So 9 seats, & a nice bunch of Cash for the Seat Bubble.
Good luck all 99.

73 for tonight now , with 40 minutes to go - so 7 Final Seats guaranteed!
