Good morning, friends! It is yet early, and I am over at Casa Junglecat eating bacon sandwiches, but come apparently 2pm we will be down at the Grosvenor Casino By The Sea to update you on all the action on the first GUKPT of 2008.
In the meantime you might be interested to know that the media comp last night ended up an all-blonde affair, with me and Junglecat playing heads-up in an only slightly boozy manner for the first prize of a free GUKPT main event ticket. In a most gentlemanly of conclusions, we decided to split the prize somehow. But I won. Is the important thing. Yay me and Junglecat!
People spotted in the casino last night, and therefore most likely playing today, include Red-Dog, tikay (God help us if he's playing today though), Mickey Wernick, William Hill's own Julian Thew, Paul Parker, and Jen Mason (wandered in around 1am to drink whisky). Should be a good one...

We are here! And everyone in the pressroom is having trouble connecting to the internet except for me! Ahh ha ha ha ha! I love my Mac.
Spotted milling so far are Ian Woodley, Willie Tann, Ian Cox, and a bunch of other people. We have a bag of jelly babies, and we're ready to roll...

Well, blonde have sent me to all the far flung corners of the land, from Plymouth to Walsall and my exotic journey now comes full circle as I return to my town of residence, the "sunny" and idyllic locale of Brighton as the TD just referred to it.
Actually, he was being slightly economical with the truth as it is in fact a grey, wet, windy and somewhat drab day weather-wise, but that is unimportant as an abundance of excited, happy, optimistic and talented poker players have assembled to do battle on Day 1 and will be filling the grosvenor casino with enough poker sunshine to tan a marshmallow.
As a quick aside, I realise Dana has already done an official chirp regarding the press tournament last night but I would like to add my congratulations to Dana who played very well to bring home the seat. Well done you banjo-playing badass! (Jen took some interesting and most probably humiliating shots of us in celebratory poses which we will post up during any lull for your general amusement and because we are shameless punks)
The players have just about started and Dana has plunged into the midst of things to get the early news. The tournament clock will be posted up shortly but a quick reminder that the event starts with 10k chips and 25 50 for the first level. Level increases will be hourly.
There is lots of interest for blondites in the form of Ian Cox, Julian Thew, Red-Dog and many others who we will be following closely. There is a nice blend of strong experienced players as well as the usual smattering of "less gifted"* participators.
In addition of course there is the fearsome and well supported Jen Mason, who seems to run deep in every live tournament she plays these days and will no doubt make anyone sharing the felt with her ever so slightly uncomfortable. My confidence in Jen is such that it was only slightly shaken by her comment as we travelled to the casino that "mmmmm, my hair smells of bacon."
I have wittered on for far too long so I will join Dana to catch as much of the opening drama as possible.
Good luck everyone. May the force be with you!

I thought I'd seen it advertised everywhere as 1.30pm start? Are we starting at 2.30 tomorrow as well?

2 pm start today and I assume this will be repeated tomorrow, but I will check with Jon to make sure there are no funky variations...
