"An interesting result in the Main, where @smith1408, who has previous successes in Mains, Minis & a UKOPS, took the honours. Used to be quite a high volume player 8 to 10 years ago, but less so these days. Has played over 31,000 games here, in stark contrast to the 2nd, 3rd & 6th finishers who have amassed just ~1,300 games between them. Runner-up @mikeEEe logs on most night, plays the Main then ups sticks, so he will have been pleased to get a nice lumpy cash. It was a particularly good evening for 6th placed @Viveecanwho later won MidEx. The illegibly aliased @lIlldtgbht was 5th. In 4th was @PBKR, who you know all about, playing his first MTT here for a week, & who never played anything else last night. He got married recently, so maybe Mrs PBKR put her foot down.
@ReaperAtook the Mini, his 2nd this year as he recently won the Avenger version. 2nd was @PRhack93 with the deceptively aliased @HAPPYNIGE4 3rd & @benc in 6th.
Special congratulations today go to @ozzieowen who won the £110 entry Summit for the 2nd straight week. Yes, it's a small field (32 + rebuys both weeks) but it's a select field & it's a tough one to win, so to win it twice on the bounce is a remarkable feat. He won a Main at the end of March too. A pretty surprising 3rd place for @bingobow, who has an ABI of £10 & had barely played in 14 years here & not at all for 6 weeks. Just polled up last night, paid-in direct, got 3rd & went home. Hard to explain these things sometimes but there's always a reason.@james11212 had a curious night too - first up played a £2 Heads Up (won it), then a sat to Summit (won his seat) then 4th in Summit. Quite a contrast between a £2 HU & a £110 MTT, think I'd find it hard to give a £2 HU much care & attention if I could play £110 events. But hey, vive la difference.
@bigfatfish spends most of his time & energy printing money at the Turbo DYM tables, but having won the Major 48 hours earlier, took last night's Mega.
Congrats must also go to Heads Up Boss Bloke @benc, who won 9 @ 9 for the 2nd straight night. Things must be quiet on the HU tables.
Turbo & Quickdraw both went to Usual Suspects, @Froozle & @Natnug respectively.
The £1k BH was won by @harry18110 for the 2nd time in 11 nights. Has a really interesting CV, best cashes being 4th in a £110 entry "Super Weekend Main" in 2018 & 1st in a "Mission SPT Freeroll" (?) a year earlier. I really can't remember what that was. There used to be a £1k BH that ran at 19.30 every night, & he won that no less than nine times.
Finally, @poker69completed the coveted 7 @ 7/9 @ 9 double last night, both this month too, he won 9 @ 9 2nd April & 7 @ 7 last night."
To my naïve eye, MTT traffic seemed quite reasonable last night for the time of year. Tonight there's Arsenal v Chelsea "live" on TV at 8pm, so that's going to affect numbers I'd say. The Vegas Quarter got a pleasing 23 runners, & it looks like James's idea to make the satellites half-price is paying off as numbers have been good almost every night. Worth remembering that the very first 2024 SPT Vegas Final is this Sunday. 3 Vegas packages will be guaranteed, & it currently has 18 entries. I imagine that it will probably get close to 30 entries.
@Rstinson97 won the Main. He's not on Sharky so I don't have much data on him but I know it's at least his 2nd Main Event win in 2024 as he won a Predator Main a month ago, almost to the day. Runner-up, & having his best result of 2024 was @mysteryreg. Other scores this year for @mysteryreginclude 2nd in Sheriff, & wins in 9 @ 9 & Reload. In 6th was @MAXALLY who won his £33 entry in the long-established Annual Naps Competition in which he generally does well, he seems to have a good angle on horse racing & does not make the mistake of constantly backing short-priced jollies, which so many foolishly do. 6th in last night's Main was his best result of 2024, narrowly beating 2nd in Mini Marksman & 3rd in a Mini Major, both in January. He ran 3rd in Xmas UKOPS 11 too, beaten only by @roddy28& @Super_Oli with @NChanning two spots behind him in 5th. He just needs to get a break in the Vegas satellites now.
The Mini went to @darbyogillwhich is an odd alias, anyone got a clue what it might represent? Anyway, it was his or her first significant win - all their previous wins have been in various Freerolls -Rewards, Sunday Major, Eliminator etc. 5th was @bsa1972who has made the FT of several Minis & won a Reload late last year.
@loololollocan do no wrong at present, & after winning Sheriff & the £1k BH on Saturday, & a great night on Sunday including 1st place in the Major for over £3,000, last night he turned his attention to Sheriff which he duly won. He's now less than $1,000 behind @Thoichin the Sharky 2024 Sky Poker MTT Leaderboard, although of course @Natnug is not currently opted in, so we don't know how well he's doing.
@Arrogantis in a rich vein of form too, & after winning Sunday's £5,000 BH to cap a great week, he took last night's 7 @ 7. Sadly (for me) he's not on Sharky so I don't have much of a handle on his overall results, but I do know he's very profitable indeed at MTT's & hardly ever plays cash.
As is often the case, @Zorro64played just two MTT's last night, Turbo & Quickdraw, & it worked out fine as he won the latter.
Two of last night's featured events went to "numbers" aliases - @3265 won the Rebuy BH & @235467 took Reload. I have no real data on @3265as he's not on Sharky, but of course @235467 is a different matter & we know he's had half a dozen 4 figure cashes, made up of wins in a £6k Rebuy Open, a UKOPS, a BWBH, a £5k BH & a Marksman Main, plus a runner-up spot in the Sunday Major. Is a big fan of the 4 card game, & it's a shame we don't have more of them here as I'm sure he'd do well in them.
@tug180 came up two spots short of the win in Turbo a week or so ago, but got revenge with 1st place in it last night.
@beanssswon MidEx, 6 months since his last significant win, which was exactly 6 months ago in Turbo.
The £1k BH fell to @KOBACwho won a 7 @ 7 around weeks ago.
@davtheravwho was 3rd in a Hitman Main 3 weeks ago took last night's 9 @ 9.
The Vegas Quarter had 3 seats guaranteed but with 23 entries it made 4, plus £28.70 to 5th. Semi Final seats went to @Riney13@podraic@bakersdoze & @kjs77 with the consolation £28.70 going to @DARK4NIGHTwho also won last night's FTT.
I think that's enough - more than enough actually - for today. Sorry I rambled on a bit, it happens sometimes.
