Afternoon.
This day last year
"Just a short review today, it's Saturday & I've got Saturday things to do.
BWBH went to @do67. Only been here 15 months but had some lovely scores. Sharky ROI is 69%, but bear in mind sample size, just 566 MTT's so far. Had some right good wins though, just two weeks ago won Summit, last night's BWBH & a Marksman Main in late 2021.
@Max_Bear does not generate much volume, maybe just 20 or so MTT's this year, almost exclusively Main Events, but when he plays he makes it pay. Despite that small number of MTT's in 2023, he's finished 1st, 1st, 2nd, 2nd & 3rd in Mains & 2nd in a Mini. If we look back further, he's had two cashes in excess of £9,000 - 2nd in an SPT Online, & 1st in a UKOPS Main.
The Mini was taken down by @Byteme, their 2nd Mini victory. Has won dozens of £400 BH's.
On Wednesday, @LePonch won the £1k Rebuy BH, & he followed up last night by taking the non-rebuy version.
@235467 is proving to be Mr Versatile. On Thursday he won the "big" nightly PLO8, last night he was 1st in Mega, 6th in BWBH & 4th in Turbo.
Quickdraw went to @Doooobs who has a phenom CV here & elsewhere. He was 5th in BWBH too. He'll have spent the last 4 days punting good things at Cheltenham, & I bet he made decent money, he usually does. An actuary by profession, which suggests his party trick is evaluating & measuring risk, a very useful skill in poker & punting I would imagine.
Other notables with wins last night included @goldnballz @THETANK @Curt360x27 & @PRhack93.
That's it for today, I'm off to do my Saturday stuff."

@AlexaAJ took the Main which will have surprised nobody, but he needs to improve his timing - 24 hours earlier he won the Mini & If he'd won both on the same night he'd be £5,000 better off. Having said that, he's doing just fine, it's only mid March & his 2024 haul of 1st places includes Summit, Hitman Main, Predator Mini, 2 Quickdraws, Turbo, MidEx & 7 @ 7. So I guess he's getting by financially. Runner-up was @yougomuck and those with long memories & bad viewing habits may remember him winning the televised "Sky Sports BH" on Sky Sports TV some 12 years ago. Runner-up that day was @Topdogfish who is still playing regularly on Sky Poker. For all i's faults, Sky Poker does somehow generate great loyalty from it's player base.
In the Mini, the likeable @ILIKE2FISH took top spot. In 2023 he played more MTT's than anyone else on Sky Poker, and so far in 2024 he leads the field by a long way, he's played 2,625, some 800 more than the next player, @chkngeorge. It's all slightly misleading though, as he plays shed loads of satellites. That's a good thing of course, as it aids liquidity.
5th in the Mini was @bbmike who had quite an evening, & was the only player to cash in both of the big PLO8 events - 5th in the £400 version, 1st in the smaller one. Then, when the clock struck midnight, he began his Streak Week campaign, playing 36 DYM's in the next 90 minutes. I never did a full audit, but I think he may have managed a 10 streak but they were at different stakes so won't count.
The £400 PLO8 was like All Our Yesterdays (anyone remember that?) with the old Plopper crew mostly present, @botneck 1st, @Whizzewky 2nd, @Enut 3rd, @bbMike 5th & @pompeynic 6th. I miss those days so much. First thing I do when Sky Poker put me out to grass is start playing the O8 stuff here again, assuming I'm still around & compos mentis.
@TheDogs-1 had their first thread win, taking down Mega. Then, at the stroke of midnight, & like many others, he moved across to the DYM's to start get a prompt start to Streak Week.
The opening £1 BH went to @The_Source and that's the 2nd time they've made that FT this month. Been here a very long time & not played much, with 90% of their volume being cash games.
@Stevo_me won the £500 BH & that was his maiden thread win as far as I can see. It was almost exactly a month since his last thread mention, for making the FT of the same affair.
@claudel9 & @Vertigo battled out the 9 @ 9 FT, & it's not the first time those two have shared a FT as I know they've done so at a Live event not so long ago too. @claudel9 got the better of the duel this time, with Shropshire's finest @Vertigo in 2nd.
@Samyboy17 tuns up almost every night & one-tables Reload. Has won it several times already, & did so again last night. Made the FT of it one night last week too.

@pompeynic and I were chatting about how much we missed the old days at the table last night. Such good times, like playing a home game with mates every night.
It would be a huge shame and a mistake if Sky Poker ever put you 'out to grass', but it would have a massive tick in the 'pros' column if it meant you could come back to playing on here....and don't worry about the compos mentis bit, it doesn't stop me!
@Enut
There was a formatting error when I copied this across earlier & it did not read properly. I've corrected & edited it now, hopefully it makes a little more sense.
