This day last year

"A very good morning to you.

I always find it tough to get back into the Forum routine after the excitement of an SPT but I'm feeling a little more energised & chirpy today. UKOPS was formally announced yesterday which is always something I look forward to, & then when that's done & dusted we have another SPT to look forward to. And then comes Christmas, about which I have mixed feelings, but it means another UKOPS & there's all that wonderful sport on TV.

OK, let's get down to business, & there was a great result in last night's Main which went to @bossquaid. It's his 2nd Main Event win, the other was a Gold Rush earlier this year, he won a Mini in May too. Last night's victory was - just about - his biggest score ever on Sky Poker after almost 4 years & 7,250 MTT's. Well done bud. 5th was @chkngeorge who won his seat via the MML. I noticed SPT Manchester winner @Vertigo played it too, finishing 26th, as well as 3rd in Mega. His ABI is only £8, but after binking £11,000 up in Manchester, I guess we will see more of him in Mains now.

Before we move on, a little diversion. While I was at SPT Manchester @bossquaid introduced himself to me, we pleasantly exchanged a few words about his improved results lately & that was that, we moved on. It got me thinking though about one of the peculiarities of "Live" poker. We get our seat draw & then sit down with 7 or 8 other players, most of whom we don't know & are complete strangers. And yet nobody ever introduces themselves, or says "hi". I find that insanely weird. We are going to share that table with those players for maybe a few hours, maybe all day, & yet we never go through the social niceties most of us are used to. I can't think of any similar examples in my life, whenever we meet a bunch of people we plan to spend a few pleasant hours with, there's always the usual ice-breaking intros. Imagine playing 18 holes of golf with 3 strangers & not introducing yourselves to each other on the 1st tee. It's not as if any of us are "pros", we are just recreationals about to enjoy a day of fun poker, which all of us have looked forward to. It's much the same on Forums, especially poker forums. A player will come to the Forum for the first time ever but very rarely say "hi" or "morning/afternoon" or whatever. I guess it's an age thing, & folks think it's me that's weird. Probably right, too.

A big win in the Mini for @reeler but the name which really caught the eye was 6th placed @Gvbnugvv. He's been chirping a bit on the Forum this week, & very few people took the trouble to say "well done mate" which is a bit sad. It's only small staff but it's all relative, & surely most of us fondly remember the thrill of our first few wins? Anyway, in the last few days he's had 2 wins (including Reload), a 2nd, & now 6th in the Mini. His Sharky graph has gone near vertical, & his results are pretty solid anyway - a 23% ROI & a rating of 71. Keep it up @Gvbnugvv & whatever you do don't lose that enthusiasm, it's a joy to see.

9 @ 9 went to @Ironpump1 who I suspect enjoys MTT's more than he cares to admit. Does very well in them too, & earlier results include 1st & 2nd in Sunday Majors.

There was a win double for @Natnug (how many times have I written that?) who took Reload & MidEx. It was a particularly hot Reload, 2nd was Tuesday's 9 @ 9 winner, @gibbzy, with Monday's Main Event winner @Jessieak in 3rd. In 4th was @aynaricol who min-cashed in extraordinary circumstances at SPT Manchester to hopefully end a particularly vicious downturn. The money bubble at Manchester was tremendous fun, everyone stalling because one lad had about half an Ante. Thanks to some eccentric play on the part of one particular player, he actually cashed I believe.

@steviep89 won Mega, the 7th time they have done so, which is mighty impressive.

That'll have to do today, I've exceeded my word count by miles thanks to a few waffly diversions. I'll try & stick to the results tomorrow. Probably."

Morning.

A bit of overlay last with 7 @ 7, Gold Rush Main, Summit, 9 @ 9 & MidEx all recording misses. Most were trivial except the Main which was over £500 adrift. This week is the nut worst week in the payday cycle so no surprise really.

Gold Rush Main went to @maddog74 who one-tables the Main most nights. As far as I can tell that's a PB, the only prior featured MTT win I can find is a 7 @ 7 last month. 2nd was @bigg431 who is a very irregular player, maybe just 50 MTT's so far in 2024. As well as 2nd in last night's Main, he ran deep in Reload. Has a very decent CV including 1st place in a 2014 televised PRIMO, UKOPS wins in 2017, 2019 & 2020, & Mini Avenger twice. In 6th was @boarbag06 who won Monday's Mini Marksman.

The Mini went to @MynaFrett who only returned from a bit of a Sky Poker sabbatical recently, since when 3rd place in a Sharpshooter Main has been the best score. The FT was all M's & T's actually - @MynaFrett @Theshark14 @Mack91 @mclittles @trevor37 & @masonio. As useless stats go that's as useless as they come & yes, it's hard to fathom the workings of my mind.

@NChanning seems to be in terrific form. 2 weeks ago he won Gold Rush Main, in last week's renewal he so nearly won it again, coming up one spot shy in 2nd, & last night he won the £110 entry Summit from the usual ultra strong FT. I won't list all the finalists but it was very much a case of the usual suspects.

7 @ 7 - which missed guarantee by £147 - went to @Upswing who was 2nd in Predator Main a fortnight ago.

@ughx3000cx took the Rebuy BH, their best result since 3rd in Marksman Main on 2nd September, and a week later they were 4th in a Gold Rush Main.

@UgtACEKING has barely played in 11 years here & not played a single MTT since Christmas Day 2022, but suddenly re-appeared last night & played three MTT's, winning the very first of them, Mega.

For the late night trio of Turbo, Quickdraw & MidEx it wsas a Big Boy's Benefit, with victories going to @destinycod @loololollo & @GFKIJKLL respectively.

@cestlavie won the PLO8 - who cares? - with @Enut in 4th place.

Think that's it for today.

Not sure what to expect tonight, with a variety of televised football including Man U in one of the minor European affairs, a poor looking game at The Emirates featuring "Dark Arts" Arsenal v lowly Bolton, & perhaps the most interesting game of the night being up at Anfield where Liverpool will entertain West Ham. The Hammers Manager needs a result real bad, failing which he may be looking for a new job this time tomorrow. I'd find it rather amusing if they sacked him & reinstated David Moyes. Stranger things have happened...
