    A HUGE Rail supported him - respect to them, & him. Rich deserves that.

    I'm so proud of him, & pleased for him.

    Amazing result Rich. I hope you are proud of yourself and you can now take that result and start really going for big wins.

    Sky Poker really is getting better and better. Lisa is playing great after just 2 weeks and maybe just maybe, this has unleashed your true poker skills ;)

    TK should be commended for all his guidance and well its just BRILLIANT!

    Rich gets alot of stick sometimes, however, the facts are:

    1. He is a very solid and decent poker player

    2. He is a top bloke

    3. He deserves his moment of victory! 1K eh, the BR challenge starts here...

    WP sir excellent stuff!

    Wow.  Excellent result, and one that is fully deserved.  Well done!

    Can we start a book on how many times this gets mentioned when he next presents a show?  I'm guessing 34 :)

    Final table in the 7:30pm deepie too - I'm not sure but I think that he may have been the only member of the SkyPoker team to achieve that feat tonight. ;-)

    1.45am and can I sleep? Can I ever!

    Absolutely thrilled and a little bit in shock!

    Thankyou to everyone who railed me tonight- really, really appreciate it. And thanks to the other players in the game who were great fun and played great poker too.

    Got off to a flier in the Open but ended up one of the short stacks from about 100 players left down to 8th. Completely card dead for ages but just hung in there till I got a couple of nice breaks and then everything went right on the final table.

    What can I say? I've just seen a pig fly past the window along with Elvis, Shergar and the Loch Ness Monster. The moon also appears to be a healthy blue colour!

    Chuffed to pieces- and cheers to the Sky Poker community. You're the best!
