GL guys sad to be at home today, didn’t get a chance to say hello on Friday Tikay between the sitting and the drinking but when I saw you you were looking well.
Back in 2012 we shared tables in a $1,500 PLO8 WSOP Event in Vegas, he has amazing gamble. I made a horrific mistake with 12 left - 12 years later I still wince at the thought - & I busted, whilst he went on to finish 5th.
He has several claims to fame, one of which is that he is Sam Razavi's cousin, though I should add it's seems like Sam has around 50 cousins. Quite the family. Great table company.

Simon is one of my lifetime bessies & an amazing guy. Had a chess rating of over 2,000 at his peak, has appeared on the proper tough quiz shows like Only Connect, is an NFL expert, 'Spurs Fan & God knows what else. An extraordinary man with a ridic IQ & really lovely guy. A big pal of Mr Channing's too.
Mr Channing moves all-in & gets FOUR callers. However, perhaps a factor is that blinds are 5,000-10,000 with a BB Ante of 10,000, & he only had 29,000.
He had the Q-9 of spades & did actually make his flush, but one of the quartet of callers had the beautiful As-Ks, so that was that.
Incidentally, by way of a little PR, here's what the Bounty Prizes were - quite a bit of interesting info on there.
Cheap at half the price? The promised info is not on the Promo Page yet, but it's true, the satellites are genuinely discounted to half price this year. No snags, no caveats, no sneaky wordage. Half price.
There are still 4(5?) brighton locals in who I've never seen play anything bigger than a £4 pub tournament live. Amazing turnout. Simon Dean even came into day2 5th in chips. We had to bully him into entering by taking like 50% of his action, he wasn't going to play otherwise

Pretty sure the Lady on the other table (over Lollo's shoulder) is Deborah Worley-Roberts
She looks POSH and has some lovely DIAMOND Rings on her fingers ........ but she swears 'Like a Trooper'
Well that never took long did it?
Minimum payout? £545.
Next pay-jump will be with 36 left, when it goes to £585.
This is Charalampos Lappas

Hope everybody has enjoyed themselves
Thanks Mike, sorry I missed you on Friday, & thanks for the kind words. I'm feeling surprisingly good actually. Probably a bad sign...
The vagaries of table redraws means these three are all in a line, very much "blue on blue on blue"...
You know Mr Channing of course.
To HIS right (our left) is @loololollo
And to HIS right (nearest us) is Simon, aka Tal.

In fact, in the time it took me to take & upload that photo, it's gone down to 39 players remaining.
1st prize? £18,890.
Very nice.

@MISTY4ME
Sadly, definitely NOT Deborah Worley-Roberts, she must have bust early today.
I know she's not here as I can't hear her.
EDIT - Ahh, bless you @aynaricol, beat me to it as usual. Thanks.
While on the subject, here's three Deborah Worley-Roberts facts for you.
3) She won an SPT Brighton just before COVID descended on us all. Very good player indeed.
2) She came 2nd of 718 in the 2017 WSOP Ladies event, effectively the Ladies Main Event, & won $83,459.

She also has a very impressive CV....

1) Finally, & best of all, she is stunningly LOUD. Not "loud" dress sense, or Girls Aloud Girl Band, I mean loud, as in LOUD LOUD
HUGE fun to have around, & a very American lady if I'm not mistaken despite her THM suggesting she's English.
If I knew who or where Simon was, I'd go find him & give you an update.
I'll do my best to find him for you.
