    Ooh, Ingoldmells, posh Skeggy!

    Used to go to Skeggy a lot, played @ North Shore Golf Club, right on the beach, with the wind howling.
     
    There was another Golf Club in Skeggy, too, Seacroft, bit posh that one though.

    We had 3 or 4 golf weekends a year there, & at first, we'd stop off @ Woodhall Spa on the way for 18 holes, but the bunkers there were unplayable for a player of my abilities, I'd end up throwing the ball out in the end & tearing up my card.

    Happy days indeed. Mostly.
     
    Hope the weather is bearable. That's good for Skeggy.

    With 45 minutes to go, I just had a wander.

    Don't worry about the "missing" names, lots of Tables have broken, & it's tough to find their new seats amongst a wall of faces.
     
    Sam 50,000

    Tommy D 35,000

    Wayne 50,000

    Matt Bates 52,000.

    What a day, maybe our best ever in the WSOP Main.

    Tomorrow, we have Thewy, Ryan, Jakally, FoleyBoy, &, I think, LOl-Raise.

    Well done lads, great effort, a credit to the Site.

    Thanks Rob. Danny N is well over 100,000, he's in fine form.

    I saw Neil Channing find a right belter.

    There was an early position Raiser to 700 @ 150-300, flatted in cut off, flatted on button, &  Neil (BB) pays the extra 400. 

    Flop came 3h-9h-10h.

    Neil checks, opener checks, cut off takes a stab (3,000 or so), Button jams for 14,500.

    Neil CALLS, the others scarper, Neil announces "nuts" & turns over Ah-Qh. 

    Button had outs, he had 6h-7h, but Neil swerved.

    Nice.

    I guess this has been answered before now, but was wondering why no interviews this year?

    The blogs have been awesome by the way.Keep them coming.
    Wishing all the Sky Poker players all the best.

    Just checking my twitter and apparently Shane Warne is playing tomorrow.

    according to ESPN 6 more hands to go today.

    Finished with 45,500. Day 2 on Tuesday!

    Victoria CorenVictoriaCoren

    Day 1 over! Through to day 2 with 53k in chips. After a pretty card-dead day, I've got to be pleased with that.

    Neil ChanningSenseiChanning

    Ridiculously frustrating last 2 hrs. Lost a flip to get to 150k & went from 100k to 43k. Lots of pots including rivering nut flush v quads.
