If I may begin by indulging in something of a personal note for once, it's exactly 18 years ago today that I joined Sky Poker, having signed up for a 6 week deal. And somehow I'm still here. Think we can safely file that in the "How did that happen?" file.
A slightly better night for MTT traffic, although there were still some scattered oddments of Overlay, nothing much though - £35 in the 7 @ 7, £140 in the Mini & a tenner in Turbo.
The Main went the way of @Woebegone which - for me - is awkward, as I have very little info on this player, though I know they've won a bunch of bits & bobs, including a Mini Marksman late last year & in all probability much else besides. I do know though that every time I see that alias it reminds me of one of the best books it has been my pleasure to own, & read, "Lake Wobegon Days". Seriously, if you enjoy good writing, you really should buy a copy. Think I've read it 6 or 7 times & I still find something new in it every time. Sadly, the Author - Garrison Keiller - who also had a syndicated Newspaper & Radio Show, both of which lasted 42 years - could not keep his hands to himself & after numerous allegations of inappropriate behaviour, he was, in the modern vernacular, cancelled.
In the Mini, @WOODY43 took the honours. Sadly, once again I'm somewhat in the dark as to his history here, except to know that two years ago this month he won Mega twice in the space of a fortnight. Not doing very well today, am I? Moving swiftly on then...
As I'm sure most of you know, @alancarr12 spends most of his time extracting money from others at the higher stake cash tables with impressive efficiency, but now & then he enjoys s little light relief in MTT's & so it was last night when he won Sheriff for the third time since 12th October, in which time he's only played it around 6 or 7 times. He really is different class, & despite not playing it very often at all, has won the Major three times. A decent sort of chap but no fun at all to share tables with, unless you enjoy having your pants taken down.
I had something of a shock when I started looking at the history of @garner909 who won the £800 BH - Sharky show him as having played 85,000 (EIGHTY FIVE THOUSAND) games here, though looking a little closer, just 4,000 were MTT's with the rest being SNG's. That's not a record by any means - @johnmonty for example has played over 400,000 SNG/DYM's, even so, it's still what Ex President Trump would call a bigly number. Anyway, when @garner909 does venture across into the MTT streets it seems he's more than capable of looking after himself.
For the 4th time in 2024, @ToddBwon 7 @7, & in fact he's won the Mini three times this year.
@1317has one of the most erratic uppy-downie Sharky graphs you'll ever see, so 1st place in last night's Rebuy BH was just what he needed to give him another upward spike.
@Dbwins has suddenly hit form, & after winning Saturday's Mini, took down last night's Mega, meaning their 1st & 3rd biggest scores have both come in the last 6 nights.
After winning Mega twice last month, @7omos took Mid Ex.
I'm trying to concentrate on lesser known players in the write-ups, but the Regulars keep doing their thing & there were wins last night for @GSmith13@loololollo& @grinddd
In the Elim Freeroll, @smellbl1nd, who (almost) never has a bad word to say about anyone, emerged on top.
That's it, I'm done.

This day last year
I used a different format this day last year which I can't really C & P, so here's a link to it;

Morning.
