Thanks Tikay I really enjoyed it. Just realised I neeeeeed to play more live. The mistake I made on day 1 was giving people far too much credit - many of them had only played £5 pub games. So when they set me all in on AAQ in a 90k pot second level, I am having a massive tank before calling with AK. They just flipped over A^ with pride. It's pretty mental.
1st break. We are ITM, 632 left. I spun my 20bb up a bit by busting a couple. I know J3ono is still in as he's at the next table, but can't speak for the others.

Learned a lot of lessons that I've been frantically trying to commit to paper since I got home. Like all the pitfalls I avoided, and making the most of the time that the live game affords you to sit and run over the streets before you make a decision. Online you generally have to know what you're going to do ahead of time, so unlearning that was a pleasure. It feels so good when you're right too, especially making a big fold and having the nuts shown to you
Found the day 1 much harder to navigate than day 2, when stacks are shorter and decisions easier. Learned not to be afraid of playing dem streets, even OOP with AK.

A great event and though disappointed now I'm pretty pleased at having navigated my way through >10k players.
Great result.

Reminded me a bit of the old Sky tournaments.
Can't wait for SPT this weekend
