First of all, I'd like to commend Skypoker for the UKOPS. I didn't know what it was until last Friday when I thought I'd load the software up and have a pop at the megastack, only to discover the UKOPS was on. A little bit of luck saw me bink that and I did a bit of research. This has led to me being a leaderboard wh*re for the past week, being exhausted at work and battling some site sickos (which I've enjoyed although I got thoroughly owned 3 handed last night on the FT bubble of the 55). I've ran pretty bad in key spots, but that's just made me more determined to shoot for top 10 and the mystery bounty seat (clinging on in 10th at the mo and expecting to fall short).
Here is the moany bit. I like PLO. I was really looking forward to that UKOPS mtt tonight. My fault I guess for not checking the structure beforehand (didn't think I'd need to tbh), but starting stack being worth 10bbs 1 hour in left a bitter taste in my mouth. Advertise it as a hyper if you want it to play that way. It was a total crapshoot from the off. I understand that NLH mtts are bread and butter for grinders and PLO is distracting when mtt'ing, but they can skip that one if they want!
Finally, I've loved the whole thing, although shattered and have to keep buying the Mrs and kids stuff to give me a week off from them, it's taken me back to being a full time grinder days and it's been ace.
Tikay, you're work in the forums is amazing - keep it up.
Good luck for those chasing points rest of the weekend.

A nice bit of balance there Steve, some good, some not so good.
I'll certainly pass on your comments as to the structure of the PLO event.
Thank you for the personal comments, now you've made me blush.
