"Having researched & written today's entire review I was just wrapping up when I somehow managed to delete the lot. Lordy. So here's version 2.0.
18 months ago I wrote;
"@paulfold plays 80% of his volume on the DYM streets, and played just one MTT last night - & won it."
Well not much changes it seems, as he did the same last night, though that was the Turbo & this time it was the Main. Very low volume - just his 6th MTT in the last month, but it seems to work for him. 2nd was @bbMike who also did well, winning his entry via a £1.80 satellite (the only one he played) & turning it into £530. Has a very solid CV, including 4 Main Event wins, the best of which was the now defunct £5,000 Turbo Open back in 2014 which was usually televised. 5th last night was @ILIKE2FISH who is currently the highest volume MTT player on the site in 2023, though that's mainly due to serious quantities of satellites.
@splashies treats Sky Poker like his own little ATM, when he needs cash he just polls up & wins something, in last night's case the Mini. Can't think of many players who have won more MTT's here - well over 300 last time I looked - but curiously the biggest was a Freeroll, when he collected £2,650 for winning a Stack Builder Freeroll.
@tonyp142 has been MIA for 3 weeks but soon got back in the winner's enclosure by taking Mega. Runner-up was @MAXALLYwho has had a good week so far.
It's good to see @destinycod putting in more MTT volume, unless of course you end up on his table, as he's in glorious form. On Sunday he won the Major, Tuesday he won Mega & was 2nd in Main, last night he mopped up the 7 @ 7.
@Tsaaaar had a terrific & rather unusual session, starting off by winning the Rebuy BH. Alongside that, he won two Main Event sats, a Vegas Micro Sat, an SPT Glasgow Quarter, & then a seat to Glasgow in the Semi.
@Drumcrow took the opener, only his 2nd headline victory, the first being the non-rebuy £1k BH 18 months ago.
A week ago @Lynas so nearly broke his duck when he FT'd MidEx, and did not have to wait long to improve on that as he got the win last night.
Quite remarkably, @235467 won Reload for the 2nd time in 3 nights. Seems to like the 21.30 slot, as he's also won that £10 entry £400 BH that also kicks off at the same times 3 times since the end of April.
I already mentioned that @Tsaaaar won an SPT Glasgow seat, but there was more good news as the other seat went to @weecheez1 who I've not seen in the flesh since well before COVID came along & messed with things.
Version 1 was so much better, but what's done is done & I'll be fine once I've completed a mini-seethe.
*Actually, that's a porkie, it was not better at all, but it's a great example of how confirmation bias works."
MTT traffic was OK, there were smidges of overlay in Main & 9 @ 9 &, surprisingly, Reload missed by £165, which, in relative terms, is quite a chunk. Very rare for that to miss.
@Drewett took the Main, & a quick shufty through the database tells us he's had a great 3 weeks in the 8pm Mains. He went AWOL at the end of February, only returning on 30th April, since when he's finalled the 8pm Main 7 times - Gold Rush 3 times (1st, 2nd & 6th), Hitman twice (2nd & 5th), Marksman (6th) & Sunday Major 6th. That's an astonishing hit rate by any standards. Tough podium last night too, with @Arrogant& @Natnug standing on the lower steps.
The Mini went to @wilrichwho has an excellent winning record in Sharpshooter Mini, with several wins in recent years. Sharky rate him very modestly but I fancy that's only due to their algorithm being biased against low stakes players.
For the 2nd night on the spin, @grinddd won Mega. He's another enjoying a wonderful run. As well as back to back Mega wins, he won the £5k BH on Sunday & had a whole host of FT's last night - 3rd in Turbo, 3rd in a £500 BH, won TWO £24 satellites to the Summit then ran 5th in Summit for around £337.
@Natnug& @bigfatfish never had it their own way in Quickdraw though, with @destinycodtaking the win. As it happened, @Natnug got the Summit win & @bigfatfish won the £800 BH, so the money was being nicely spread around.
The Rebuy BH went to @the-ogre with @NOSTRIin 2nd, & I notice @NOSTRI nicked £60 in the Rewards Freeroll the previous night.
@steveyseetook 9 @ 9 as well as 1st place in a £150 BH, and two 4th place finishes, both in late night £300 BH's.
@FlynTimber continued his phenom run, winning MidEx this time.
My old - & very tall - mate @eon1961 took a break from bullying everyone in PLO8 & won Reload.
SPT Glasgow seats went to @gixxerk4 & @karlluke& so it will be good to catch up with them again next week.
SPT Vegas Semi-Final seats went to SPT regular @carravagio, & also @KJT123 & @shaggy19with enough loose cash to @Allan23 to enter three more Quarter Finals, or almost.

Heavy hitter @Natnug won Summit from a high class FT which included @peiratis88 @ozzieowen @loololollo @grinddd & @NChanning.

Quite a ding-dong in the Elim Freeroll, with @lundie 1st, @TimmyRaRa 2nd, @poppy765 3rd, @Duesenberg 4th & @LittleGJ 5th. Must have been a soft night, even @Jac35 made the Top 20.
I'm done, at last. Very late today, things to deo &, you know, stuff.
