Young @Super_Oli took the Avenger Main & was 5th in Turbo. He's had plenty of big scores including a UKOPS HR & a Vegas package. It was the 2nd time in 2 months & third time in all he's won Avenger. If Sharky numbers are correct, he's now over £100,000 in profit on Sky Poker. Good player & a good bloke. Disgustingly young looking though, bet he has to show ID when in Vegas. 2nd was@Froozle with @chrisdonkb 3rd. Chris had a very solid session, 3rdf in Avenger Main, 11th in the Mini, 4th in MidEx & won himself a seat to SPT Manchester.
@Hod4k997 has had a terrific week. He took last night's Mini, having won Gold Rush Main on Tuesday & been 2nd in it the previous week. Tough night for @bigfatfish who was twice the FT bubbler - Mini & BWBH.
BWBH went to @destinycod who was also 6th in Turbo. We can never say who is or is not the "best" MTT player on the Site, it's simply impossible to know or say, but if you tried to compile a list he'd certainly be top or near the top. Does not put in much volume here, plays a fair amount "live" & probably on other sites too. Decent bloke, always ready to offer good advice to those who seek it.
@Buttafngrs@Swog@Doooobs & @Froozle were all there or thereabouts. After being runner-up twice already this week, @NChanning was 4th this time, despite not regging until after 11pm. Would surely benefit from being gelded.
After 2 nights on the bounce when the SPT Sat never ran as most players withdrew minutes before the start, I was watching nervously as the clock ticked round to 21.45 last night, but despite 4 late withdrawals, it went ahead, with @chrisdonkb & @Morris707 prevailing."
With Scotland's game v Poland "live" on TV, traffic last night was fine, with zero overlay. You can draw your own conclusions from that.
After that strange result on Wednesday, last night's Main had a much more predictable 1-2, with the diminutive @MikeyW94 heading off that man @PAPABURG who had yet another solid night. @MikeyW94 has a stunning CV, which includes 6 UKOPS wins (2 of which were High Rollers, one was worth over £5,200), 3 BWBHs, 5 Summits & 2 Avenger Mains. Extraordinary. He's approaching 10,000 games here & has reported profits of ~£85,000. As for @PAPABURG as well as 2nd in the Main he was 3rd in Quickdraw. With August just 5 days old, he's already made 8 Featured MTT Final Tables, including 2 wins. September is surely going to be his best month ever. In 3rd was @juntela who has been here since 2007 but is mainly a cash game player & I am unable to search his MTT record as he's recently reset his stats.
@kalooki8 pretty much only ever plays the Mini these days, & has been knocking on the door of late - 8th & 12th in his previous 5 attempts - before getting the win last night. Been here ages, & in fact his 6 biggest wins came in 2010, 2013, 2014, 2015 & 2016. And here's a stat for the ages - when he had his biggest ever result, which was for 5th place in a 2010 televised Main event, the runner-up was none other than @MAXALLY who collected £1,900 for his efforts.
@Woebegone is the new Sheriff, with @JBERGZthe runner-up, though he never had to wait long for consolation as he won Turbo. 3rd in Sheriff was @ILIKE2FISH with @loololollo 5th.
@cabbaz won Mega & then ran 5th in MidEx. What a CV he has, with a 49% ROI over 10,000 games & some £140,000 of profit.
Two thread debuts today, both of them fairly low volume, with @JBWatson20 taking 9 @ 9, & Reload going to @Oteng.
@Natnughas gone very cold & in winning MidEx was scoring his first featured MTT victory since also winning MidEx on 20th August. Even the very best players runs bad sometimes. As a completely unrelated aside, I saw one of THE funniest comments I've ever seen from a poker player a few days ago, who announced he had "been on a downswing for a week now". A week you say? Goodness me.
@Upswing is another who has gone a bit cold, last night's 1st place in the Rebuy BH was his biggest cash since he was 3rd in the Major in mid August.
That'll do for today. Tonight's MTT traffic? Well the televised football is Wales v Turkey. That'll be a humdinger...
