    Well Done Ratboy71, played on your right for first 2/3 hours of Tourney, it was a pleasure to have met you!
    Brilliant fightback on final table from you sir, watched last hour with your son, and he is a credit to you as well!!

    Well played to all other casher's esp mi mate marc 9th.

    Unlucky to Diggerman, esp when you lost AJ to A9, which swung it away from you!!

    Thanks to Sky Dave, for the Omaha lesson LOL, great fun!

    Hope everyone else has a great day/nite like i did

    I've just been catching up and re-living the events of last night! Great updates as usual, I'm usually reading them though and not involved in them!

    Huge congratulations to Ratboy, very well played mate! It was a great final table (in fact, the whole tournament was brilliant) and very well played to everyone who cashed!

    Great to meet so many of you folks down there, especially TommyD, Dollie....good grief, there's so many, I think I'll just leave it there because I'll only miss someone out! Thanks for all your support and for the support on this thread too! Very much appreciated! ;)

    Also, a big up to Maxally & Machka! Great weekend guys, see you in Nottingham!!!!  Oohh and Ness, you better get to DTD too sweetheart! ;)

    PS Of course, I'm absolutely gutted that I didn't win it but second is so much more than I expected so..... WIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!! ;)

    - flash, dav36, dollie and tempusfuge - again all sat on my table friday night 9great bunch of guys and we had a good game/night0

    nutter
    dylan12
    tommyd
    bonnicoon
    and maxally - who is much better looking than his avitar ;)

    strangly i was over double the average stack all day untill they split the table up and i sat with names not so famous on the site (qq v ak)

    Just got back from Swansea and this is my first chance to check the SPT Update thread.  I eagerly pages through in case I had won, I hadn't.

    Congratulations to Ratboy71 and DiggerMan, so glad it went down to two Sky players who are well known and respected on here.

    It was great to catch up with so many of the players again, special mention to DiggerMan, MAXALLY, Ness4, TommyD, Phil12uk, Dylan12, Dollie, Solack, Monkey123, DAIBOOT, nutter, DANTB, Gliterbabe,  etc etc etc.  You get the idea.

    Also big shout out to all the Sky crew who I met - Tikay, Rich Orford, Ed, Rich, Rich (yes, there is 3 of them), Ling, Anneka, the lovely red-head Susan? ;-) and special mention to Dave Bland who is a top guy.  Had a good chat with him about Sky, Chess, poker strategy and Omaha.  I won't forget the 3 hour 15 minute £2 Omaha SnG in a long time.

    If I forgot to mention anyone, it's because I didn't care.  Whoops, I mean it's because it was a long long weekend and my brain is frazzled (mmm bacony).

    Roll on Nottingham.

    Helloooo…..not long back from the 7 hour, double train journey to get home!
    Just wanted to say it was well worth it for a fantastic weekend. I got to chat with so many of my idols from Sky, players and presenters. Big thanks to Brrrrrr and JRY for your support. Still buzzing from making the final table in my first SPT, can’t believe it!!!
    Very well done to Ratboy and very unlucky Diggerman.

    Very well done Ratboy. I can't believe I managed to cash although not one half decent hand in the last hour so drifted out.

    I loved the day and a big thank you to all the guys from Sky.
