Afternoon.
This day last year
Again, it was SPT weekend, & I only wrote a "Lite" review, so not much info.
@roytheboy7 won the Main with
@83magdalen taking the Mini.
@StayOrGo won Mega, with the now defunct 9pm £16.50 thing going to
@cabbaz Where are they now?
An odd stat here - of the 13 winners this day last year, 12 of them are still here at Sky Poker & have played in the last week. The sole exception is
@boooowho who has not been on site since December. That's a remarkable stat imo. For all the criticisms of Sky Poker & it's somewhat retro software, many of which are valid, there's still a very strong bond of loyalty amongst it's customer base.
Comments
A reasonable Saturday for the time of year. The Main came in at a healthy £7,170, though that was some 3% down on last year, all the more surprising as it was an SPT weekend last year so many of the regular players were not on site.
@gimpazoid - what a disturbing alias that is - took the Main. It was their first MTT for 2 weeks, & that was a UKOPs in which they finished a fine 2nd to @Gutshotter. Last night was far & away their best result in the 3 years they've been here, though they've only played 286 MTT's so not exactly a regular, that's an average of just 2 per week. Ish.
The Mini went the way of @Hod4k997 who has a very nice CV indeed, including winning Avenger Main twice, Avenger Mini twice, Gold Rush twice, & a UKOPS.
@Arrogant won the Mega. Annoyingly (for me) he's not searchable on Sharky, but I do know that this week last year he had a nice double, winning both the 9pm £1k BH & Turbo on the same night.
The curtain-raiser went to @Laura9191 who has twice won 7 @ 7 plus one 9 @ 9 win.
Playing just their 2nd MTT since April, @playtheace finished with all the chips in 7 @ 7.
A very interesting newcomer took the Rebuy BH, @rocketr189. Signed up on Friday, & ran deep in the Main (13/187) then in just their 2nd MTT won this one. So two MTT's, a good showing in the Main & 1st in a Rebuy BH, one-tabling both. Be interesting to follow their progress.
A lovely late-night win double for @bobcam who took both Quickdraw & MidEx. Bet he was buzzing after that.
And finally...
Runner-up in the Mini was @Bmw335car. We often see players who namecheck their car in their alias, & more often than not a Beemer or Porsche, pretty rare to see "Austin Allegro" or "Morris Marina" though. Worth also noting that as you know, all BWM's look much the same, but that BMW335 has quite a pedigree, & was first seen 83 years ago, in 1940. I'd say it looks a deal better than the modern version. And both of them look a zillion miles better than an Allegro, which may lay claim to be the worst car ever made in the UK.£5.50 entry £1,000 Bounty Hunter (£1,285)

Correct. 0/2 so far.
It's a shame, but it's perfectly legit.
