Good Luck Sue and lolufold for today and keep taking the beechams claire and tikay and maybe order a hot toddy off a cocktail waitress(i imagine you will have to explain a hot toddy to her but hey ho!).All ready for another late night.
BIG thanks to Loony for getting the thread started. I just read the tail-end of yesterday's Thread (we went to bed as most of you were getting up!), & it must be THE greatest thread ever on Sky Poker Community - because it was ours, all of us built it. And then Sue posted, after play ended, & I was welling up just reading it. Thanks, also, to MereGeek, Dylan, & all the others who have Posted the facts & figures, Table Draw, Payout Structure, da de da, this really is a Team Effort, & I can't tell you how proud I am to be part of it. Big up to Claire, too, she is a real workhorse, & the way she worked yesterday to get the info after we lost our Media Access was amazing. I'm hoping - fingers crossed - that our Media Access wll be restored today, but whatever happens, somehow we'll work out a way to get you the info, as it happens. And, knowing Claire, she'll book more Interviews with poker celebs & faces, & I'll nab a few via my contacts, too. We have arranged to interview Sue before play, as per usual, at 11am, & Claire will get it uploaded sharpish, as usual. PS - Claire has just arrived in the Media Centre - she has a streaming cold & a high temperature, so go easy on her today! Posted by Tikay10
Sue has done and is continuing to do a fantastic job as are you and claire every single person on the site is praying and hoping for her good luck Sue knock em dead girl.
i think we all need to thank tikay and claire so much as they have worked so hard since they've been out there. 14 hours yesterday with no food etc, the passion they have for the sky community is second to none, wouldn't be the same without them. and as avid poker players, i bet they would love to be playing in the main event. must be so hard.
Good luck Sue, Day 5 easy pickings Benyamine is just a cash game player, easy!!!!!!!! Onto Day 6 , need something to look forward to to make work go quicker! D Posted by SolarCarro
Really he's just a tennis player so even easier - easy peasy lemon squeezy infact!!! ;-)
In Response to Re: WSOP Liive Update - One Goes Into Five! : Eat 15 oranges to get your Vit C up, take 6 paracetamol (that should last the day) and drink a some Honey & Lemon to keep the voicebox well oiled and you'll be fine. We need you on top form Tikay! Posted by Lightwood
Rubbish... A hot Toddy is what our TK needs. The only know cure for Man Flu
One by one, we are sorting the tech issues this end. The BIG remaining question is whether we'll have "inside the ropes" Media Access. That will make a huge difference, either way. But nothing will spoil today's fun.

Good luck Sue! What an amazing effort! Keep it going and take it down!...and remember who you beat in a coin flip heads up in the Vegas Final haha :-) Well played Tony too! A fantastic achievement! Posted by swordsyboy
Yes well done Swordsy, without you getting turned over none of this would be possible
Keep an eye out today for a guy called Johnny Lodden. He's a bit special, & has a truly amazing playing style.
I really must try & write some more Bloggy stuff. I'd love to write the tale of Johnny Lodden, me, an illegal Poker Tournament in Bergen (Norway), a police raid, 20 armoured police vans, the King & Queen of Norway, & a Saga Cruise Liner. I mean, really, you can't make that sort of stuff up.
At one time, Johnny held the record for the biggest ever Online Pot - which he lost......!

YAY cmon Sue, can someone lend me some matchsticks, the eyes aint what they used to be
The Sue interview has been done, & Claire seems to have resolved her Lappie problems. She shouted at her Lappie. Loudly.
So the Upload will be quite soon.
However, it must be noted, the suggestion that I interview Claire went down like a lead balloon......
Edit: Thanks to GREGHOGG for pointing out that Gerasimos Deres is from the Swedish part of GB!
But please can you tell me, what part of the UK Helsingborg is in, thanks
