"On Monday @PKRPar celebrated passing 11,000 games on Sky Poker by drawing a complete blank, he took Tuesday off to recover & have a little sulk, but he roared back into action last night & took the Main. That was his 6th Main Event win, in addition to two big UKOPS trophies, a Summit & a Super Sunday Mini. 2nd was @Woebegone. In 3rd was @ILIKE2FISHwho has done everything but win a Main - he's now finished 2nd, 3rd (5 times), 4th, 5th & 6th. The win must come soon, right?
In the Mini, there was a similar story with a twist, as @rorysdad who has finished 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th & 6th in 2023 Minis got his win at last.
Big congrats to Burger Bloke @Kahuna96 who had a win double - Reload & MidEx. In 2nd was @NOSTRI, who was also 2nd in a £300 Rebuy, although he was unplaced in the other 83 MTT's he played.
The £1k BH went to @Snowski with @235467 in 3rd. Bit of an oddity those two clashing in a NLH FT, as both are regular & very good PLO8 players who do very well in the nightly PLO8 "biggie" here.
@delboy504 has already taken down the Rebuy BH & Quickdraw this month, & he added 7 @ 7 last night.
Single-tabler @briefcasewas 3rd in Tuesday's Reload then won last night's £1k Rebuy.
@DWINCHY took last night's Mega, just a fortnight after he won MidEx.
Monday's 9 @ 9 winner @K1ng_Airk0 tried again last night only to go busto in 63rd, but returned later in the evening & won Quickdraw instead."
MTT traffic was somewhere close to expected levels, though there was an odd trio of overlays - 7 @ 7, 9 @ 9 & Reload - happily, all by insignificant amounts.
Quite an ending to the Main when the Father & Son combo of@StayOrGo & @Limp2Lose fought it out, with Dad winning the battle. I'm not going to list Graham's poker achievements, there are too many, suffice to say he's won at least 15 "regular" 8pm Mains, & everything else here there is to win, the best of which was some £8,500 for 1st place in a UKOPS High Roller. It was a very successful session for@Limp2Lose but I suspect a very frustrating one too - from just 6 MTT's played, he was 2nd in the Main, 3rd in the £110 entry Summit & 2nd in Turbo. The human mind works in weird ways, & while that's a seriously profitable evening, most of us would be disappointed by those results.
In the Mini, we saw a splendid example of spoonerism as @tikemyson took the win, which as it happens was his first featured MTT victory. Plenty of g's on the FT too, with @gogogadget4th & @Gigitygoon 6th.
Summit went to@ra1dfor the 2nd time in 6 months. Is proving quite successful, as well as those Summit wins, has tasted victory in all sorts including the late night trio of Turbo, Quickdraw & MidEx. @UnEuropean who was 2nd in last Friday's Avenger was 2nd again here. He seems to make a habit of cashing in £110 events - 1st & 3rd in BWBH, 3rd, 6th, 6th & 6th in Majors, and 2nd 3rd & 3rd in Summits. As noted earlier, @Limp2Lose was 3rd.
@Terrie who often does well in the nightly PLO8 single-tabled 1st place in Mega.
@aosbor1028 is another who single tables almost every night, in his case always Reload. The week was not going great, finishing 34th, 186th, 176th & 101st & then the sequence was broken last night with 1st place.
9 @ 9 went to @jameswins & when perusing his stats this morning I chanced across a remarkable thing - he won a seat to the Sunday Major in the nightly Freeroll three times inside a week - 9th March, 13th March & 15th March. In total, seems to have won seats in that Freeroll with great regularity. In 2nd place in last night's 9 @ 9 was @mumsie, & in fact he was also 2nd (to Mean Machine) in 7 @ 7 too, so must have been one of his most successful sessions. Hopefully that helped make up for the "milk & water" episode which was seriously comical - unless you were involved...
@al393is something of a Quickdraw specialist & won it for the third time inside a month from a seriously strong FT which included @shirley02@destinycod@Thoich & @Awoken.

Many thanks, as always @Tikay10, for your generous comments.
Yes, it is very rewarding, for both Gary @Limp2Lose and myself, to go deep in these MTT's, very satisfying, as a Father/Son, and also as players.
It's incredibly fun, to both be on Final Tables together.
I managed to come out on top the last twice, just to prove Dad's not quite past is yet.
I had the benefit of being directly to Gary's left, which is always handy when two people know each other's game's really well, and I ran very well too.
I don't think anyone who knows us, would dispute that Gary is by far the better player, so it's nice to give him a run for his money occasionally.
I think we are both very blessed to be able to play Poker for a living, and many thanks to yourself, and all the other support we receive from the community, it's much appreciated.
