I can't comment as to whether or not the person you highlight has had a god or bad year.

But I wonder why (if that is the case) you would find it necessary to "lol" at somebody else's misfortune ? Maybe it's personal  I don't know, just seemed strange to me.

Prize Pool: £1,175
Entries: 55
Rebuys: 180


I was in Brighton on Sunday for the APAT regional, and phoned Flushy while I was there .. He confessed to playing the £5 rebuy comp, he also confessed to having a high % of the 180 rebuys, he was shoving blind every hand, in fact truth be told, he would have had to come 1st AND 2nd to have made a profit LOLOL

I think the point is why are 9 prizes with 55 runners, the buyin is somewhat irrelevant.

Nice result Flushy, ship the £20
