"@NCGT is new to Sky Poker, joined in April & won last night's Main, which was just the 31st MTT they have played so far. No idea what "NCGT" stands for. By way of contrast, runner-up @Neilio123 is in his 10th year here, has played 8,622 games & won quite a variety of featured MTT's down the years.
In the Mini, another relative newbie @Gwynston45 came out on top. Had had 2 or 3 Featured FT's but this was their maiden win.
@NOSTRI continues to impress, & took the Rebuy BH. That's the 7th time he's won this, and comes just 6 days after he last won it. He was also 2nd in a £400 BH, but had a disastrous Elim Freeroll, finishing 222nd of 244.
@davtherav is a player we are seeing more & more in these reports & he added Mega last night. This month alone he has been 1st in 9 @ 9, 1st & 3rd in 7 @ 7, 3rd in a Main & now 1st in a Mega.
@NIHIGHGUN is no stranger here, has won all sorts in his 15 years here, & took the 9 @ 9 last night.
In the Turbo, @Loverrrr enjoyed their 2nd featured win, the other being a 9 @ 9 in April. Runner-up was @Swog who had a frustrating session, as in addition he was 3rd in Quickdraw & 6th in Mega, though he did win Mega two nights earlier.
For what seems the umpteenth time, @Jessieak won Quickdraw.
A little thin on interesting news today I'm afraid, so that's it."
Huge night last night as we had the last 2024 SPT Las Vegas Final, plus of course the Quarter & Semi.
The three package winners were @Granite89 (an SPT Vegas veteran who actually won our private MTT in Vegas one year), @CxE1 (who came to Punta Cana with us a few years ago) & @Michael_M. I don't know too much about Michael (yet) except that he's in his 11th year here and has had a bunch of decent results, notably winning at least 3 Minis (Avenger, Hitman & Marksman) plus assorted wins & FT's in stuff like Reload, Mega & MidEx. Commiserations to @madprof who wins the 2024 "Worst Sky Poker Bubble of the Year" comp, though at least he gets a £500 consolation, though I fancy that will be bittersweet.
The Major went to the shy & retiring @IanSimpsonplaying just his third MTT here since mid April. Some of you may remember Ian from the days of Sky Poker TV, Northern lad, speaks funny. 2nd place went to the very interesting @KingKlich who can do no wrong at present. Ignoring the nightly Freeroll, he played just 3 games last night, first up winning his Major seat in a £24 satellite, then 2nd in the Major, & also 2nd in the Mini. That's it. So he got a bonus too, 2nd in Major & 2nd in Mini = £1,500 from the FTJ. In total, he earned around £3,400, which is roughly 100 times the £34 he invested. Amongst the smaller cashees were two of the Old Guard in @lolufold& @style2737.
In the Mini @chkngeorge was on a free entry via MML & he turned it into 1st place & £350. As I've said before, I've no idea why more players don't play the Forum Comps.
In the £5k BH our very own @NChanning took the honours. It began at 7.30pm & as per his usual modus operandi he left it very late to enter - 21.09 actually - before powering to the win. Personally, I've always liked to be in from the start - FOMO I suppose - but Neil seems to have perfected the more time-efficient Late-Reg method.
In Sheriff the usual bash-up merchants were present & correct, with @Natnug@loololollo@GSmith13 & @seikus in 2nd to 5th respectively, but it was @mrtee - perhaps a golfer? - who was the last man standing.
@Denots81 had a wonderful day, it began with 1st place in a £300 BH that started just after Midnight on Saturday, after which he disappeared then logged back on to 1-table to 1st place in Reload.
@Wurzelboy did OK too. Won Reload, 2nd in a late night £300 BH & was back on site this morning to finish 2nd in a 9am £150 BH.
Quickdraw saw something of an alliteration special, with @AlexisJRin 1st & @AlexaAJ in 2nd.
It's been almost a year since @Rokafella played an MTT here but he returned last night & snap won the Rebuy BH. He's come a long way baby.
7 @ 7 went to@allan40618 with @MARK277 in third place, exactly a week after he did so well to run 2nd in SPT Glasgow.
Think that's about it for today. Everything feels a bit flat the morning after the Vegas Finals conclude, there's a sort of adrenalin hangover, but it'll clear in a day or two, & worth noting that 4 weeks this Saturday the Vegas qualifiers head across the Atlantic. oioi

Good luck to all who have won a seat, have a great time and see you next year !
