"Last night saw the first night of increased Main Event guarantee, up to £5,000 from £4,000 & it was great to see it come in at a nadge north of £6,000. However, it was a Bank Holiday & numbers were generally quite frisky, as always on a BH, so it'll be interesting to see how they fare in the next few nights.
Winner of the enhanced Main was young @bearlyther who seems to have resumed playing high volume MTT's here. Doing OK too, in August alone he's now won two Mains (Marksman & Avenger), a Turbo, a Mega & a 7 @ 7. Back in the day he was a serious force, in 2012 he took down a big UKOPS for ~£6,000, and in 2015 he won a Super Roller (called "Sunday Major" these days) for ~£4,500. I see he played the SPT sat too (seat bubbler) so maybe we can look forward to seeing him in Manchester next month.
All hail to@Taximan1who took the Mini, which seemed a fare result, & he had £235 to chauffeur it (pun copyright of @phantom66), with @steveyseein 3rd.
@DogsWalkerhas only been here around a month, & until last night his best result was to run 4th in a £1k BH. That all changed in remarkable fashion, as he not only secured his first featured MTT win but his second too - he won both the early evening (18.30 & 19.10) Bounty Hunters. Presumably he had a long lead in both.
Solid night for @Essexphilwho won the 7 @ 7, & then booked his SPT Manchester seat at the first time of asking. The other SPT seat went to the shy & retiring nit who goes by the alias of @Natnug
For the third time in as many months, @tonyp142 took the Mega.
@Scattyx has contributed very little volume in 3 years here but has suddenly started playing MTT's & makes their thread debut today with a surprise win in Turbo.
@MikeyW94 played just 4 MTT's last night but did very nicely, with a win (Quickdraw), a 4th (Turbo) & a 6th (Mega).
And finally..... In one of the FTT's last night the 1st & 2nd were @EBBERDON & @wynne1938 were 1st & 2nd. Anyone care to guess their combined ages?"
A satisfactory Sunday with everything covering with the exception of 7 @ 7 which missed by 2 entries.
A competitive Sunday Major FT saw @TIMBER come out on top. He's in his 16th year with Sky Poker & I imagine we'll see him this coming weekend at SPT Manchester. Runner-up was @PAPABURG who has over 7,500 MTT's against his name but seems to have found a new lease of life since early last month, has been cashing all over the shop & his graph has gone vertical. There were min cashes for a whole host of really good players as well as @HAYSIE.
@roghelx won the Mini Major. It's his second Mini triumph, as he won the Sharpshooter version in April of last year. The runner-up on that occasion was @Shrimpy28. Wonder what happened to him?
However, their domination did not extend to the £5,000 BH which went to @FAS who is almost due his Sky Poker Long Serving Medal, having been with us since March 2007.
@kc66 won the £800 BH & in doing so makes his thread debut.
In the 9 @ 9 @BIGMANPKR took the win, his third featured MTT victory, the previous two both being Reloads. It was also his 2nd biggest score in his 18 months & 115 MTT's here.
The Manchester SPT satellite did not run, which is surprising given that the event is only 4 days away.
Firstly, a monkey is not a min cash. You could have just said, a whole host of really good players cashed as well as Haysie, and made the same point, but more accurately.
Secondly, you being up at the crack of dawn writing this can only mean one thing. A golf course is to blame.

Morning.
A satisfactory Sunday with everything covering with the exception of 7 @ 7 which missed by 2 entries.

Fresh from wining & dining with the UK's top trainers & jockeys up at the Ebor Festival, @NChanning won Sheriff from @GSmith13 @loololollo & @glencoelad.
Team Big Boy had a very good night, with wins for @GSmith13 (7 @ 7), @loololollo (£1k Rebuy), @Froozle (Mega), @AlexaAJ (Turbo) @Steed432 (Quickdraw) & @Limp2Lose (MidEx).
However, their domination did not extend to the £5,000 BH which went to @FAS who is almost due his Sky Poker Long Serving Medal, having been with us since March 2007.

@cestlavie won the PLO8. Oh well, such is life.
That's it for today, a little brief I'm afraid, but it's Bank Holiday Monday & there's life to live.

You could have just said, a whole host of really good players cashed as well as Haysie, and made the same point, but more accurately.
Secondly, you being up at the crack of dawn writing this can only mean one thing.
A golf course is to blame.

To be fair, you are right about the golf.
