Sorry this was delayed today, I had some indoors stuff to sort.
Reasonable numbers last night, with the Main being pick of the bunch, hitting it's best number for 7 weeks.
In sport, West Ham & Leicester served up a terrific 5 goal affair last night, highly entertaining. Is it just me or is football a whole lot better this season? Yes, the crowds make a huge difference, but I've barely seen a bad game in the EPL yet.

7 at 7 Bounty Hunter (£1,008)
Word filtered through that Rose was on the FT, so I opened the table & to my surprise, so was Duesenberg, in fact he was big big chippie.
Rose was short - in chips I mean - & busto'd in a standard spot, 5-5 v 7-7 to the eventual winner who was hitting sets for fun.
Duesenberg impressed me immensely. Never seen a player who so consistently, persistently, & unashamedly folded with such aplomb & class. He folded everything, even walked the BB every orbit. Opponents only had to breathe on their chips & he folded. And his timing was impeccable. Sometimes you see players make their "move" too soon, with 25 or 30 Bigs. Not our Dues. He got Heads Up - by folding - then waited & waited then waited some more until exactly the right moment before jamming his remaining 1.5 Bigs & was very unlucky, as villain was brave enough to make the 1BB hero call. An unforgettable watch, this was a nit in his absolute element. Eat your heart out @The--Don & @NOSTRI . By way of balancing my range I did notice he won TWO £500 BH's last night. How that happened will have to remain a mystery for now, but I'll be watching him avidly in future & will report back. And in case you think I dislike the poor fella, not guilty. I'm not saying I like him, far from it, but I don't dislike him, or at least, not greatly.
Good win by darts180 incidentally, despite Dues rolling over.
darts180, who is in terrific form, was 3rd in the Main on Saturday, so he's on a bit of a roll, despite the walkover he was gifted last night.

I can't see Makaka's results on Sharky any more, but I believe this was his first win since he recently returned to the Sky Poker MTT streets. There will be plenty more, he has a decent CV. He was also 2nd in last night's Main & then ran 4th in the Mega later last night.
In 5th was PRhack93, the starting point for what was to prove a sizzling 90 minutes.

After warning up with 5th in the £1k BH, PRhack93 took the Main. He did well in July, winning amongst other others both BWBH & Avenger Main, exactly a fortnight apart. He had to fend off Makaka to get the win, no easy task.
BooBoo was 3rd, with Keith @goldnballz 6th.
TommyD FT bubbled, but I don't think he was much bothered, Spurs are 2 from 2 so far & they are definitely punching right now.
Danyo0 has been mostly MIA the last month, but he's back on board, taking 8th here then 5th in Mega.
Whilst all those players were performing heroic feats, @NOSTRI had two bullets & still managed to be out by 8.15.

£1,500 Mini Marksman (£1,650)
johnnyy, who won a Reload last month, took the Mini.
The real story here though was PRhack93. He'd already won the Main & 3rd here gave him a lovely £1,500 bonus from the Sky Poker Final Table Jackpot. It was the 2nd straight night the FTJ had paid out - £750 to @seikus on Sunday, £1,500 to PRhack93 last night. I'm sure Sky Poker will be thrilled to bits about that.

£1,000 Mega Stack B/Hunter (£1,360)
Talking of seikus & his £750 FTJ bink on Sunday, here he is again, winning a hotly contested Mega.
waller02 is being a bit of a bridesmaid at the moment, 2nd here & he's finished 5th, 7th & 8th in Main Events recently. Think he just needs to work on his flipping skills. His Sharky graph is as sexy as they come though, it's nigh on vertical. He's been playing away from home too - poker, not the other - & I'll report on that separately.
concrete90 was set on the win but had to settle for 6th.

£1,500 Sheriff Bounty Hunter (£1,550)
This might have been the toughest FT of the night, with Lord Crush asserting his considerable skills against a whole bunch of top notch MTT-ers. He took 8 heads in winning it, compared to runner-up Super-Oli who did a superb @NOSTRI impression & got just the 1.
Not content with binking Sheriff, he also collected an even £1,000 yesterday for winning the Sky Poker Premiership. Fella must be minted.

£1,500 Reload Rebuy B/Hunter (£1,803)
£3 rebuy BH's are seriously high-variance, & yet Arrogant, twice a recent winner of the Sunday Major, keeps doing well in it, & he took it again last night. In fact I'll go out on a limb here & say he has a better Reload record than any other player. Come at me.Sunday's FTJ hero seikus was 4th, with young @waller02 cashing in 6th despite having drunk a lot of beer and then drunk some more beer.

£1,500 Turbo Bounty Hunter (£1,680)
grinddd is running back into form & took his third win of the month, £1k BH, Sheriff & Turbo.
TEXANT had his third runner-up spot in a week - Main, MidEx & now Turbo.
tonyp142 & PKRPar duelled for 5th & 6th, collected over 2 head prizes between them.

PKRpar was due a win & took MidEx, with Natnug so nearly winning it for the second time this month. I think Natnug may have won almost all the featured MTT;'s by now, with the possible exception of the Main. Give him time.
Slimline @Shrimpy28 was third. Slimline? He started a diet 4 weeks ago & has lost 12lbs already. That's seriously good, let me tell you. Well done man.

In Other News...
This is a new section, not daily but we'll do it as & when.
So, you may recall in yesterday's thread that I mentioned @waller02 made Day 2 of a WCOOP. Well he was Billy Let Down, & exited within minutes of Day 2 starting in a fairly standard spot. Bit of an anti-climax really. He then regged for two more WCOOP's.
Here's how he got on - or is doing - in all 3.
Sunday - I 95/12938 for $375
Monday - 525/13174 for $170
Monday - Made Day 2 of the $11, currently 113/371 (11934 runners), resuming 8pm tonight
If that's not clicked, look at how many runners there were in each of those three. A spectacular performance by any standards. Give or take a bit, top 5% in all three. These are huge variance affairs, & yes, it's only three tourneys, but that's some going. Good luck tonight Ryan.
I've also mentioned @misterpj a few times in the last few days. Well he is having a right run, & his Sharky graph is heading sharply north. Here's a selection of his results from the last few days;
1st of 27
1st of 11
1st of 10
1st of 8
2nd of 59
2nd of 16
