"In the Main, @JimJam347 booked the win, just over a year since he won the junior version, the Mini. Won his seat in a satellite too. The alias "JimJam" will evoke memories of those who used to frequent an illegal spieler in East London called Gutshot Poker, as a player known as JimJam (a different one, I assume) was one of the "faces" there. I don't think anyone ever knew his real name, even on Hendon Mob his name was shown as "JimJam". What a place Gutshot was, I could almost write a book about the place. Every UK poker player that went on to become big time started there, including Roland de Wolfe, James Akenhead, Praz Bansi, the Chatta Brothers, James Dempsey, Jen Mason, & many, many others. Gutshot was eventually closed down by the authorities. It was owned & run by Derek Kelly & Barry "The Bully" Martin. Wonder what became of those two? Derek was quite likeable, Barry not so much. It was actually a horrendous place to play, all of us squeezed into an airless basement. God knows what would have happened if fire broke out, as there were no fire escapes. Fun times though, they really were.
Back to last night, @Cammykaze continues his renaissance, after a deep & profitable run in Saturday's Main, he won Sunday's 7 @ 7 & followed up by taking last night's Mini. Good for him.
There was a pleasant surprise in the Turbo with @NChanning single-tabling his way to 1st place. Sadly, there was some particularly unsavoury chat by a player who finished down the field. It beggars belief that folks can get so exercised by a little MTT that they become abusive, insulting, & use terms no decent person would use these days.
@skyflyer was in great form, winning the Mega, as well as back to back late night £300 BH's, 4th in Turbo & a deep run in the Main.
@MAXALLYwon FTT2 & was 5th in FTT3, enough to give him 1st place in the Weekly League and a £33 Main Event ticket (or smaller denoms if he prefers). Well done Mr P."
Struggling a bit to find inspiration today. Some days these things almost write themselves, other days not so much.
For some reason yesterday's write-up got the highest views of any of these reports for many a month.
Numbers last night were OK, though the 9 @ 9 missed by a a handful of entries, which is becoming a habit.
The Main made £5,310, a handsome 22% increase on last year's £4,350.
@paul10 won the Main. Don't know much about him, except that he's been here since May 2007, just a few months after the Site opened. Best result I can find was a boomlet Hitman Main win three years ago, which had a £8,460 Prize Pool. COVID was ghastly, but every cloud... Also won back-to-back Sheriffs a few years ago & various MidEx & assorted others. Seems to be nicely profitable.
4th was @Shrimpy28 who we don't see much of these days. He had a very decent night, 4th in the Main, 11th in the £1k BH, 13th in the Rebuy BH & 6th in Mega. The money will come in handy, as he's saving up to have some "I love Arteta" tattoos.
@dee2014 won the Mini & followed up by also winning a £100 Turbo that kicked off at 0230 this morning. Great bloke, he won a Mini UKOPS in 2020, & I recall meeting him at an earlier SPT Manchester.
@Bambus makes a habit of winning the Turbo, took it again last night, which is at least the 4th time in the last 2 months.
On Thursday @LFCChris86 won Hitman Main, 24 hours later he ran 2nd in Avenger Main, & last night he took down the Mega. Bloke's having a great run, rather like the football club he presumably supports.
Reload went to @bsa1972. "bsa" might just be his initials, but hopefully it's homage to the beautiful BSA motorcycle marque. My first "big" bike (500cc was big in those days) was a BSA Gold Star. Motorbikes have changed a bit...
