    ........ but VBOL to Rose @IrishRose , Keith @goldnballz , Anya @aynaricol , Mark @TheSaw , Phil @Essexphil , Ben @destinycod , Chris @chrisdonkb , Asif @PhD , and any other SKY Players ......and of course

    GOOD LUCK to Tony @Tikay10 o:):)

    Cheers for the good wishes Jez. Sadly my 3x utg+1 raise with JJ in level 7 on Friday got minimal respect and was ultimately cracked by...............an unsuited 62 :s .

    As it had already been announced in 235 Casino about the mystery bounty hunter in Dec, I decided to save my 2nd seat for that event. On that subject, if I don't win a satellite seat for the Dec event, I'm assuming that it will be possible to add £80 cash to a £250 'banked' SPT seat and buy-in that way? If someone from the Sky team could confirm (obviously once the dust has settled on the SPT in progress) I'd be grateful.

    Finally a special mention to the cardroom manager Doug and his team. It's by no means the biggest poker room at 235 Casino compared to other venues, so there are challenges with space, but you'd be hard pressed to find a poker room which is better run.

    At least 4 (maybe more) of "our" players are still in, let's see who can identify some or all of them. All 4 are somewhere in these photos.

    How many can you name, & who are they?

    @TheSaw

    CONFIRMED. you CAN do that, the £250 seat is in the tank & you just have to add £80.

    Approx stacks of our Fab Four are;

    @Vertigo (at least, I THINK it's him) 750,000

    @IrishRose 530,000

    @LmfaoAllin 500,000

    @Essexphil 130,000


    (bit of a spoiler for the quiz but nobody would have got all 4)


    Blinds are currently 8,000-16,000/16,000 & 17 players remain.

    Lady overboard I'm afraid, @IrishRose just ran 10-10 into K-K & has sadly departed. She was 17th which was worth a very handy £880 in lovely crisp pound notes.

    Three of the railing crew. Name all three.

    I don't actually know if we have any viewers, but if we do, who wants to take a guess at the time this will finish?

    Currently 16 left, & it's 7.09pm.
  • Tikay10Tikay10 Member, Administrator, Moderator Posts: 171,119

    @Essexphil appears to be back up to ~200,000 but with Blinds at 8,000-16,000/16,000 he can't hang around, the rent per orbit is a whopping 40,000.

    The plasma screen still says 16 left, but I just did a quick headcount & there are definitely only 13 left.

    13th will get £1,085, then 12th will get £1,410.

    General view of the cardroom, the two tables in the foreground are our MTT, in the background a few cash tables are running.
