What a tale this has been, with Don90, Runitsrann, SolarCarro, & macmonster all flying the flag so wonderfully.
The story ends later today, in victory or defeat, either way it will be glorious.
Big thanks to all the Sky Poker regulars for making such a lovely thread.
Special thanks also go to SPT Rich, aka Tighty, aka Rich Prew, for allowing us on this occasion to use much of his (&, umm, my) material fom elsewhere. As I explained before, he & I sit in an awkward spot here, but everyone has been magnificent in not making it more awkward than it is. Sky Poker & the Mods have been most understanding, too.
The Final Table, & chipstacks. Note there are only 8 players. 7 to go, then.
1 Ian Senior 3,765,000 3 Hasmukh Khodiyara 2,350,000 4 Robert Baguley 2,115,000 5 Iqbal Ahmed 6,680,000 6 Barry Mc Mahon 1,750,000 7 James Cummings 2,575,000 8 Nick Woodward 2,445,000 9 Grant Pirie 2,430,000
I shared a table with Ian on day 2, we were both below 20BB and we helped each other with support whilst in play and had a beer at the players party afterwards.
Talking over hands is something everybody should do to make the next level, we discussed how we kept getting outplayed post flop and how to combat playing these better players, it is fair to say the strategy we came up with worked.
In the end I had to take a flip with 88, 12BB a double up here and i had a great chance of emulating Ian, Ian got his double through and has played sensational poker since!!
Can't wait to see what happens today, never wanted someone to win so much
Also Tighty has really looked after me this week, thanks Rich!
In Response to Re: GD luck SolarCarro, Macmonster, TheDon90 and Runitsrann today Day2 UKIPT : Ahh, thanks Carl, my bad. So that means it's Tighty's fault, right? Posted by Tikay10
My client refuses to comment on the grounds he may incriminate himself.
Thanks for all the comments guys, much appreciated. Been a great experience. Not going to let the money rule my play though, if I get the hand I go with it as usual......but if any of the other 7 are reading this......I never bluf !! cough cough
