    Sadly, I have no idea. I saw him here a week or two ago, but I have not seen him since.

    Play has commenced, so I'm going to go & get the photos now, bear with me, I may be a while, the field is HUGE today.

    If you guys can, as you usually do, keep the thread going with bits & bobs from Twitter & the Official Updates, it would be much appreciated.
     
    Our Tables today are.....

    Scotty - Brasilia 41

    Thewy - Orange 377

    JAKALLY - Brasilia Gold Table 9

    James Foley - Amazon Purple 425

    LolRaise - Brasilia 35 or 36

    I gather via a third party that Thewy rivered a flush on his very first hand......

    Scotty has Jon Kalmar (5th or 6th in WSOP main in '05 or '06) next to him, Neil Giblin is sat next to Sam Holden.

    Have found everyone except LolRaise, all are going along nice & quietly. Off to get the rest of the photos now.

    Asking what table he's on so you can hunt him down.  In a nice way.

    I see David Tuchman is somewhere over in Brasilia Silver section.

    Hi All

    Having never met Tikay or Redmund, yoyo, TommyD, Scotty77, Jackally etc I somehow feel connected to you all because of this unique bond that sky poker forum and tv channel create. I really appreciate all the hard work Tikay puts in to keep us all updated and following these blogs with tremendous bias towards the sky players. Well done to all so far and heres to a good day 1c and beyond.
    Would love to see 1 of you (at least) do really well this year.

    Run good to all of you oo and next year dont forget to take me with you.

    Some surprisingly good news already. After James Foley arrived here on FRIDAY, his 11 year old daughter, Abbey, at home in Scotland, was taken into hossie on Saturday with appendicitis. Understandably, whilst she has been in hossie back in Scotland, he has been wrestling with his conscience here in Vegas. News came through today that she had her operation yesterday, & it went well, so James is much relieved today.  From ALL of us here, "get well soon Abbey".

    Good news!!

    Feel better soon Mini-Foley :o))

    Neil Giblin AKA Jackally


    Very 1st hand get AK, other guy has KK..some hands just play themselves.

    Lose 1100 chips, should've been 300. Old guys are gonna peel.

    River a boat vs tight player on T963T with 66. He has 78, up to 42k.

    Sounds a bit swingy... :-)

                                                  ==================

    Ryan AKA Scotty 77

    43k at first break really good table with fellow Brit

    1st Break, & the lads are "reporting in".

    So far....

    James Foley 28,700

    Scotty77 - 43,000

    JAKALLY - 42,000

    Thewy - 30,000

    Not seen the other lads yet, but it looks to me that you are reporting their stacks via Tritter feeds, which is abso perfect, & most helpful, thank you.
     
    An interesting Table Companion for James Foley is Sky Poker regular "Nosebleed".
     
    I've got loads of photos, but it will take me a while to upload & wordy-ise.
