Morning.
The usual brief round-up today, as it's Sunday & I've got to do nasty stuff today, like hoovering.
After a blip earlier in the week when a Main missed by £1,000, numbers have been rather pleasing, & were so again last night. The £8,000 Sharpy Main made a very healthy £9,240, the £2,000 Mini £2,725, and we saw a very big Sheriff at £2,550. Excellent.
In football, Coutinho scored on his debut for
Steven Gerrard's Villa.
Newcastle's Eddie Howe does not seem to be doing any better than Steve Bruce, & they could only draw at home to Watford. Worse news for Benitez, losing away to Norwich who are, let's be fair, a bit hopeless. Marching orders for Rafa must be imminent. Maybe Newcastle will sack Howe & reinstate Rafa.
Best of all, Djokovic has been sent home. That'll teach him to lie on his immigration forms & go out & about with the public when he was COVID positive.

7 at 7 Bounty Hunter (£966)
The 7 @ 7 went to chevy61, who gets his first Forum namecheck for nine long years.
Some unusual aliases on the FT, in particular begbiekoch & Biwomd. Glad I don't have to say those out loud.

Many congratulations to Not-So-Dour Scot as he takes down the Main whilst streaming. It was his 4th ME win in 18 months - 2 x Gold Rush & 2 x Sharpshooter. Has won a Summit too, so that's a very nice CV he is building.
loosecamel won a Main Event just over a year ago & so nearly repeated the trick last night, eventually having to yield to Not-So-Dour. There was an interesting dynamic here though as loosecamel was on for the FTJ, which makes ICM a very complex affair, though I'm sure Lord ICM ( @waller02 ) was on hand to give advice.

Let's start with that FTJ cliff hanger - loosecamel could only finish 6th, so not ideal, even so, he'll get a £200 Bonus on Monday so it's not all bad.
The winner was arthur1965, who is a bit of a Reload specialist, having FT'd it on countless occasions including winning it this time last year.

whitters took Mega, & I was surprised to see it was his first Featured MTT win this year, though he did bink Sheriff on New Years Eve, & two days later he ran 3rd in the Major for £1,600.

£1,500 Reload Rebuy B/Hunter (£1,980)
joethecat won Reload for the 2nd time in 3 months, plus he has Reload FT's galore. Only plays one MTT per night, always this one, so a real Reload specialist. If you only play 1 MTT per night the wins must be very sweet indeed.

This day last year...
MrKey won the Sharpy Main, since when we've barely seen him - maybe 20 MTT's since March, & just 8 since August, though I see he was on site on Friday.
