Morning.
This day last year
The World Cup had just started, with England beating Iran 6-2. Hard to imagine England scoring 6 goals in a match.
As I write this, news comes through that despite going a goal up, Argentina lost to Saudi Arabia, surely one of the greatest World Cup upsets ever. Not as big a shock as last night's Main Event winner, who was the mercurial @NOSTRI. And how about this for a stat - it was his third Main Event win in 5 months, and all three of them were the Monday night Marksman. Top work @NOSTRI, and though it pains me to say as much, many congratulations. He did well to beat runner-up @PKRPar too, as he's had 4 ME wins plus a Summit, so he's half-decent. Later in the evening, @NOSTRI did a fifth in the Mega.
The 9pm £16.50 may not last long as it keeps missing, but @Fabraclass has his name on the honours board whatever happens after taking last night's renewal. Has multi wins at these stakes, including MidEx x 5 & 7 @ 7 x 3. We have not seen much of @aynaricol the last week or so, but she had another very decent night, 3rd in this & 5th in Reload. She must be proper minted.Where are they now?
Reload winner this day last year was
@Nannynug (related to
@Natnug?) who thereafter only played very occasionally, & has not been seen since August.
Much the same applies to Rebuy BH winner
@painterman who played 3 MTT's on 1st August & has not been sighted since.
Mega went to
@skyflyer who was fairly big time here, but within two weeks he or she was to disappear, never to be seen again.
Comments
Last night's Main made £5,400, some 27% up y-o-y, though as noted above, the World Cup had started this time last year, so online poker numbers here & elsewhere were bound to be affected. Away from the Main, numbers were middling, though there were small misses in Mini & MidEx.
Worryingly, the three FTT's all failed to cover. These are "reg fee free" & include around £250 of prizes via free entries every month. Fingers crossed the entries buck up soon.
There was a popular heads-up in the Main with @Super_Oli getting the better of @tonyp142. Oli - let's just call him "Super" - has had some lovely results, the best of which were a 2020 UKOPS HR, a Sunday Major (very recently) & of course he won a Vegas package this year.
Runner-up @tonyp142 has a lovely Sharky graph which gets ever steeper, helped last night by 2nd in the Main & 1st in 7 @ 7. Runner-up in that 7 @ 7 was @Summers119.
@benc who I'm sure you know all about, won the Mini.
A new name to the thread is @MrTonnage who weighed in with a Rebuy BH win as well as 5th in Mega. Has only been here 2 weeks, & played just 33 MTT's but already has 4 FT's including last night's win. One to keep an eye on.
@PokaBayb9 took the Turbo. Only an occasional visitor but he's pretty big-time, rated 93 by Sharky & with some impressive scores including a UKOPS HR, a UKOPS Main, a Major & a BWBH.
@Natnug has been running a bit thin by his standards, but chimed in with a Quickdraw win, the second time he's done so inside a week.
If you are a (the?) regular reader of these reviews, you'll know that @bobcam has been doing very well the last few nights, & the run continued last night when he won himself a Sunday Major seat in the 191 runner Freeroll.
Sadly, the SPT Semi failed to run.
That's it for today, places to go, things to do.
