    i might be mistaken but i think that i have come third closest and get entry to big tournament? dont wanna miss this and am wondering if its going to be tonight? ok i will keep my eyes peeled and lookout for someone announcing the winners, if i am correct in what i am reading then the 3 winners will be achill 17:20 april 11th machka 20:00 april11th imacert 20:04 april 11th well done to my mate machka, we enjoyed a game on freeplay and isnt it just fitting that 2 freeplay winners get the chance to play a massive tournament? oh stuff me, thought i had won but i havent, thats just my **** luck lately, thats just ruined my day, time to get some comfort food and watch the golf

    i would be a bit angry if I who play's  real money was not in, while freeplayers got rewarded. mmm just a thought.

    what you on about bowie? its a FREE COMPETITION to enter and a lot of free play players have entered, your guess is no where near so its safe to say you aint winning nottin this time. and i havent won anyway so get off my case and stop having sly digs at me cos i cant afford to play cash yet, when i have got a bank balance i will be sure to look you up and take your money now!!!

    dunkster out!!!

    Thanks for my entry into Thursdays 5K Bounty Hunter. 

    Trevor Harris thinks he has psychic football powers but only the chosen 3 can predict when a one in 250,000,000 event will happen.

    I'm typing this while the tournament is still running, but well done to all who cashed.
     
    It seems more than half the field didn't turn up, I know of at least one table where 5 out of 6 were away. It must have been one of the the most generous freerolls ever with 100 prizes of £10+ and maybe only around 100 players actually playing, the rest all being away.

    At my table there were 5 players playing proper poker and just the 1 who was away. After losing 25% of my stack in early skirmishes I shut up shop, played ultra-tight and repeatedly ran the clock down while waiting for all the away players to be knocked out on other tables, it's a horrible way to play but it guaranteed me a tenner. I railed other tables after I got knocked out and saw that some away players actually won cash prizes, they will have a nice surprise when they next log in.

    Thank-you Sky Poker...........roll on the 300 millionth hand!

    A real generous payout structure, and the 'away' players were still getting blinded out at the 100 stage, which was the bubble with a guaranteed £10, i cashed £12:50 in 67th, and it was easy money, so well done sky, but rubbish participation tourney, with so many aways, but not your fault, i bet players will be moaning about the lack of quality freerolls in the future, but you put a genuine quality one on and then they dont bother and 75% of players dont turn up!! thanks again though.
