    Think I may have missed out on the skill n go top 6 :(

    It's tight. 3 have definitely gone past me.
    I have the identical ROI as Pocket9's 74.4 and have played more games. On the sky leaderboard though, there's an extra number. I have 74.40, so it's likely he has gone ahead 74.41 would do it.

    That would put me 5th from the results I know of.
    A couple in the top 6 have their stats blocked and so they could easily have done it. Not seen them play today but if they just played 1 game and got a result then that would be enough.

    Got to consider as well that there may be a few who have only completed their games today and have sneaked in under the radar.

    Think I made the right decision not to play. From where I was, quite a few needed to have a good day. Fair play to them if they do it.

    Whatever the result, I think it's been a tremendous promotion.

    fingers crossed for you mate
    agree not playing was probably the right tactic given your position, hope it worked out
    don't know the rounding system being used but round to nearest is very common in which case it's still 50/50 between you and pkt9s

    Thanks chaps.

    ......

    I was already really nervous about what a clown I'm going to look on Thursday. Now, you can bet on the outcome and SkySimpleton* has put me up as joint favourite!

    I can already see it now.
    Fred saying 'hate raise on turn'
    Ivan saying 'didn't you realise that you only had 13.46578% equity?'
    Lambert saying 'lolbad call from Jac'
    Gazza saying 'why didn't he just mash the raise button?'
    And pretty much everyone else wondering how the **** did Jac35 make it to the final? He really must be the luckbox that he claims to be.

    Seriously, I really am a bit worked up about this already. Obviously, I'm very happy to have made it but I've always lacked confidence in my game and don't want to make a complete tool of myself.

    *Sam if you happen to read this, it was a joke :)

    Have a few pints and treat it as a game of cash down the local.

    That way you will have fun
    Play well
    And most importantly
    Not give a **** what anyone else thinks of your play

    Jac FTW

    Congrats Jacco.

    You could've taken my 20 quid and kept the seat and 100% equity.

    gl.

    Where is the lay button?

    my 2nd ever skybet, and you've already done better than tikay at the WSOP in that you are already on the FT.
