Afternoon.


After the numbers were so badly impacted by the CL football on Saturday, they bounced back nicely last night, especially considering the time of year & the glorious weather.

It was Vegas Finals night, with a Quarter, Semi & Final all running back-to-back. Three more packages were awarded, going to @gez_bear & @WOW1tsANDY (both of whom qualified via the earlier Semi) & @Thoich. I expect there were plenty of hard luck stories, but maybe none as painful as @cpfc_2010 who was huge chippy on the FT but met with some misfortune & eventually seat-bubbled. His exit was a bit eye-watering too, jamming over a min-raise with A-10 suited & walking smack into the Aces. In my mind I had already mentally written "once Palace gets chips there's no stopping him" so maybe I bokked him.

@destinycod had a very interesting evening. He super late-regged the Vegas Final at 11pm (9.15pm start) & almost immediately doubled & was a close up 5th, but then things went wrong & he ended up 5th, one spot behind bubble bloke Palace. He was not done yet though, as he went on to win the Major, collecting £3,780 from a very tough FT indeed. It's his 2nd Major win in 3 just weeks, & in the same period he's also won a Summit & a Main. He really is seriously good at the pokerz. Chasing him home were @newdaddy @ozzieowen @wineli @SwannLoL & @loololollo a sort of Who's Who of Sky Poker Team Big Boy.

Many congrats to @lekski who won the Mini Major & in doing so notched his biggest score here in 14 years & 6,300 MTT's & it came just 3 months after his 2nd biggest score when winning a Reload in March of this year. Had a deep run (9th) in the 9 @ 9 too, & was back on site at 8am this morning. A much-improved player imo. Big shoutout to @ozzieowen who was 3rd in the Major & 2nd in the Mini, & so collected a nice £750 FTJ bonus. That's the 2nd FTJ payout this weekend, though I don't imagine too much sympathy will be sent Sky Poker's way.

@F_Ivanovic who is better known as a cash game player took the £5k BH with @StayOrGo 4th & @bigfatfish 6th. A very noteworthy effort by @bossquaid in 4th, which was his 4th highest cash lifetime. Paid straight in too, did not bother trying the satellite route.

Having run 3rd in Reload two nights earlier, @Irishbimbo won it last night. Interesting alias that. A few short years ago "bimbo" was in every day use, but it's very much a no-go area now. Amazing how quickly the definition of acceptable language changes.

That'll have to do for today.
