Morning.
More European football on TV last night, despite which MTT numbers were OK. Rather oddly though, both Main & Mini, which tend to do OK on a Thursday, missed, albeit only be a handful of entries.
After the recent SPT I managed to sit down & have a chat with the runner-up,
@Vertigo before he disappeared up to the bar to enjoin with the other degenerates amongst the Sky crew. Despite a fearsome table presence, wearing a vomit coloured hoodie, topped off by a mask, baseball cap & hoodie up, in real life away from the tables he was warm & engaging. Seems like he is very strict with bankroll management, but with £11,000 in his hand - his biggest cash ever - he told me he'd experiment with moving up the Sky Poker stakes, where he historically had stuck to smaller stuff. So on Wednesday, I wrote this;
"Our SPT Manchester champ @Vertigo seems to be upping his volume & stakes here now & claimed his third featured MTT win by taking MidEx, adding it to previous wins in Rebuy BH in August & 7 @ 7 in June. Also ran deep in last night's Main & was 7th in 7 @ 7."Well it did not take long for him to take his 4th Featured MTT as he went & won last night's Main. He collected ~£980 for that, which is more than 3 times his biggest previous cash on Sky Poker. In fact he almost had a featured MTT double, as he was 2nd in Sheriff as well, having gained entry via a £3 sat, & ran 3rd in two different £400 BH's for good measure. In the Main I was following it late-evening & he was in poor shape, whereas in the Sheriff he was chippie. As it panned out, he came through the field to win in the Main, & failed to hold on in Sheriff. It's going to be interesting to see how he approaches & fares in the upcoming UKOPS. I can't see him buying in direct to many of the £110 or £220 affairs, but I expect he'll go the satellite route. Watch out guys, he's a proper pain to share tables with.
In the Mini,
@Sizzlingbo scored his first ever Featured MTT victory from a relatively tough FT, with
@Tsaaaar 3rd,
@benc 4th &
@LePonch , who won Tuesday's Mini, in 6th.
After doing very well in the first half of September,
@WOW1tsANDY disappeared until returning in style last night by winning Sheriff, & running deep in the Mini (11th) & 9 @ 9 (8th). Runner-up, as previously mentioned, was
@Vertigo.
@Drewett can do no wrong at the moment, & won Quickdraw for the 2nd time in 48 hours. He also won that £11 entry £400 BH that runs at 21.30. He won Tuesday's MidEx too, & was 2nd in Wednesday's Mega.
@BWFCx who has been here just over a year but only played 13 MTT's (ABI a whopping £56) secured his maiden win & thread debut by taking Turbo.
Perseverance is all, so well done to 1-tabler
@annette who has played MidEx the last 3 nights, finishing 18tth, 5th, & last night, 1st.
The improved recent form of
@NOSTRI continued as he took 7 @ 7. In addition, he was 6th in a £300 Rebuy, 12th in the £1k Rebuy, & 9th in Reload, although I suspect he gave that Rebuy button a good thrashing.
The Reload winner was
@TWODASH who has a few decent scores in the weekly FTT.
Having been 2nd in the £1k BH two nights ago,
@swearword won the Rebuy version last night.
That's it for today, & the weekend starts here. Enjoy.

The main just fell together quite well i thought all was lost when i ran QQ into KK for most of my chipleading stack but didnt lose many pots thereafter, Heads up went well too i was an absoloute card rack.
Onwards and upwards undecided if playing tonight but might just have to in order to defend my main event trophy!
