The wind was howling & Storm Isha was in full flow, which helped contribute to a very solid set of numbers. Online poker loves bad weather. The £12,000 Major hit £14,100, the £6k BH £6,930, £1,000 Sheriff £1,750, & £1,000 Quickdraw came in at exactly double it's guarantee. Everything else did well too, though Mini Major missed, as per.

@Gigitygoon raised a few eyebrows by winning the Sunday Major. Has an ABI of £6.73 & these days plays £5 events almost exclusively. Had a good night on Wednesday, winning 9 @ 9 &, crucially, a Sunday Major seat in the Freeroll, & ending up winning the Major & taking home £3,948. Biggest previous win here? £538 for winning a Sheriff in 2019. Could not be more pleased for gigity. He also ran 5th in the £1k BH, which is much nearer his usual run-rate. Was followed home by the heavy brigade, with @Kahuna96 2nd, Major specialist @jordz16 3rd, @Thoich 5th & @Swog 6th. Great performance to run 4th by @Dingle1234. Down in 19th was a player with the alias @BillyPckle & if the rumours I hear are correct, he won over $100,000 on 'Stars exactly a week earlier. vive la difference

The Mini went to a newbie, @xGeemanx who first played just 4 days ago. Posted on the Forum that was having problems with being logged out but seems to have adjusted quickly to the various Sky Poker foibles & registered their maiden featured MTT win. WP, gg etc. Runner-up was @Thoich & as he was 5th in the Main he gets £250 from the FTJ kitty. That's two nights on the bounce FTJ has paid out. 3rd was @MAXALLY for his best cash since May of last year, & by a strange coincidence, he was also 3rd in the Mini Major on 12th November, collecting an identical payout on each occasion. 4th was Dazzy @thedazzman with @FeNdeR36 in 5th.

The £6,000 BH was taken down by @duonross, & it was very much a D-rated Final, with @duonross 1st @dom1105 2nd @Drumcrow 3rd @destinycod 5th & even the FT bubbler got in on the act, @Drewett. Variance comes in all shapes & forms.

Was a pleasant surprise to see @BIGSHANN in the winner's circle for the £1k BH. Used to be a big time player here in the late noughties & often came along to the early SPT's.

@aynaricol bounced right back to form, 1st in the Rebuy BH for £335, won £110 by qualifying for a Sunday Major seat in the Freeroll, was 4th in the 19.45 £1K BH for ~£60, & cashed in Stack Builder Freeroll for the 2nd week running, £95 this time. Those are impressive numbers considering her ABI is less than a fiver.

In the Stack Builder Freeroll, @Bean81@Arrogant & @cabbaz. The 6 Finalists all had starting stacks of either 3,000 or 6,000.

@shad8604 has been doing well lately, & came up trumps with 1st place in Mega.

After taking that new £500 BH middle of last week, @bakersdoze won Sheriff last night, so his luck seems to be turning.

@Gooner1961 will have enjoyed the weekend, Arsenal won 5-0, & he won last night's MidEx.

There were some real tough FT's last night, but arguably the toughest was Turbo, where @destinycod took 1st place ahead of the likes of @StayOrGo @loololollo @NChanning & @bigfatfish.

7 @ 7 went to @cash123 , best result being an Avenger Main back in 2017, but seems to mainly play more modest stakes these days.

I think that'll have to do for today, more waffle than enough there.

BIGSHANN a blast from the past

Bean81

Thanks for the freeroll promo, Sky. The other players at the FT are all better than me, so great to run hot and take it down. Better to be lucky than good and the variance of mtts can sometimes be a blessing.

@Bean81

I did quite a write up about your win, but it now seems it somehow got lost or disappeared when I copied the thread across to Poker Chat from my little secret channel where I prep the write-ups.

Might we see you in Brighton?


"variance is such a pain".


That's SO true, but we rarely hear or see that, it's almost always "variance is such a pain". It's so refreshing to hear the other side of the coin.
