    ESPN as already mentioned. It will be shown over several weeks in the run up to the final table (which is being played at the end of October). It's not shown on TV in the UK, but it always gets uploaded to Youtube in HD quality soon after broadcast.

    hi pod

    knowing a little bit about marcs style of play and attitude towards the game there is absolute zero chance of him slowing down near the bubble

    I've got a feeling he'll be pounding away at the short stacks rather than propping up the bar when the bubble approaches. It's possibly the easiest time to pick up chips. Many of the amateurs, particularly those who satellited in on the cheap, will be so desperate to cash they'd probably fold everything including pocket AA on the bubble rather than risk their tournament life. As soon as the bubble bursts they'll all be happy to gamble and you'll see bust-outs galore.

    Hi guys just back from holiday and just want to let you guy's know what a great job you have all done. From Tikay's endless running around the card room trying to find tables, blogging and locking himself out of the media center to bugaloo's massive intel on anybody who has a name anywhere in the world( where do you work you seem to have way to much time on your hands:))) not forgetting ace who suplies all the info to Bugaloo to start his investigations!!!
                        Good luck to the final 2 and i am sure they will both make the money, maybe even further than Redmond went a couple of years ago. Whatever happens be proud of yourselves because what makes this site special is the togetherness shown by all.

    Look forward to catching up on today's events later.

    DAY 4 SKY TABLES AND TWITTER HANDLES FOR TIKAY

    railtard11 – marc wright's table day 4

     

     Karen Sarkisyan (on twitter but not updating)

    MOSCOW, , RU                               138k in live cashes, possibly now an online pro of sorts

     

    Joe‐Boy Rahme  

    Johannesburg, , ZA                         quite hard to evaluate won the main event series in sout africa this year for 158k us dollars and appears something of a local celebrity in south african poker, talks a lot about how this year they have started to let people play in casinos e.t.c

     Melvin Dukes

    MARIETTA, GA, US                          just a couple of small cashes so far in live career.

     Jordan Mayers

    ATLANTA, GA, US                            one live cash back in 2004

     

    Jerry Wong

    BROOKLYN, NY, US                         nearly 300k in live cashes but nothing like as many since 2009, appears he may have been a profitable player on ps until the ban, perhaps not playing online anymore?

     

    Marc Wright

    GB                                                our hero and winner

     

    Andrew Flaherty

    OVERLAND PARK, KS, US                  couple of small cashes last two years

     

    Kevin Pollak        

    @kevinpollakSherman Oaks, CA, US                      very famous man :) perhaps easiest way to get his views through the night will be to keep and eye on his twitter feed seems to have a pretty decent idea of how to play anyway.


    Felipe Quijano

    FREMONT, CA, US                             27k in live cashes spread over the years, nothing major in there of note.

     

    marc has the most chips in play on this table, without sounding to cocky i am pretty sure he will be the best player on this table , i predict a very very good day and will be thinking he wont want this table to break. There are a couple of players with decent records, but at least two who could be inexperienced at this level.


    nosebleed – Daniel pickard's table day 4

     

    Dan Natarelli 

     

    @hopperpoker

    SIMI VALLEY, CA, US                         115k in live cashes way back to 2004, worth nothing he plays a lot of lowish level buyin deepstacks, has never cashed in anything like this big. A very consistent casher in low-mid stakes tourneys in america.

     

    Jeff Finkelstein 

     

    @pokerfink

    LAS VEGAS, NV, US                           164k in live cashes his twitter indicates he is a professional cash game player in vegas.


    Ryan Young

     

    TORRANCE, CA, US                             won a world series event in 2007 for 600k lifetime cashes above 1.6 million loads and loads of cashes

     

     

    Daniel Pickard

     

    Devon, , GB                                       our hero and winner

     

     

    Lukas Nemec

     

    CZ                                                    129k in live cashes all in his native country, has a very good online tourney record on ps with lifetime cashes of 320k +

     

     

    David Briegs

     

    Hillsborough, NJ, US                          (thanks to wespa) 

    He's a wealth management advisor (Senior Vice President) for Merrill Lynch.Dave is a retired three-time U.S. National Champion in Skysurfing, and an expert skydiver with over 2500 jumps. He has competed in three ESPN X-Games, represented the United States in the World Championships as a member of the U.S. Team, and was ranked third in the World when he retired from the sport.


     

    David Corwin

     

    PITTSFORD, NY, US                             10k lifetime cashes mainly in 200-300 events 

     

    Robert Cecich 

     

    @rcecich

    TINLEY PARK, IL, US                            nothing of note

     

    Paul Ephremsen 

     

    @paulephremsen

    BERKHAMSTED, , GB                            twitter handle to the left, is the ceo of a very big marketing firm has some live cashes though and appears and enthusiast , mentions on twitter he is nearer the cash.

    Started off looking a nightmare table but the last few names have made me think maybe not, good luck to dan.

     

    list of twitter handles of players at the two important tables


    @kevinpollak  kevin pollak marcs table

    @pokerfink jeffrey finkelstein dans table

    @paulephremsen paul ephremsen dans table

    @hopperpoker dan natarelli dans table

    @rcecich robert cecich dans table
