i helped ali win his seat on betfair (well helped him keep calm on msn after a beat 4 handed) and when he won he was obviously over the moon and said I will give you 5% of whatever I win, I obviously told him to not be stupid and if he gets a nice touch he could buy me a pint- pint of JW blue label it is then ;)
confidence should be high now for the main event and I wouldn't back against him going deep, good to see a brit winning something in australia.

Hi guys, just got back to hotel room after plenty of drinks, absolutely exhausted but so chuffed with the result. Was on a final table of Aussies and managed to bluff my way to a big stack - it helped when heads up and blinds were 8k/16k to hear my oppo move in for 1 million chips pre and to see 2 shiny aces stare back at me. Thanks to Mr Sherwood who railed me all the way and Ariston your bottle of JW is on the way son. Also I must thank Pommo and Dubai for teaching me how to play loose as a goose. The Crown is awesome and I will definitely be back here next year, get out here if you can - great venue and looking forward to the main on Monday. SHIP IT!!!!!

It was quality!!!

One big tourney one win - now is the time to retire ;-)

We swapped % for the main. He should have asked for 10% of me... for my 5% in him lol

I wasn't surprised to hear you had a %, if I'd known that at the start I would have expected nothing less than 1st place lol!

It was a quality performance. Loose aggressive approach, called to take pots away many times, the Aussie's didn't no what hit them.

Well done!

Make it count in the main event now Ali. Poker is a streak sport and another final should be easy.

Well done Ali, very nice work.

It was a great event played in the right spirit, the event went quite well for me, I lasted pretty deep in to the day until I got Scott Fischmann all in, he had AQ, I had AK. I exited shortly afterwards. One of the problems about bad beats is now, by the time you get back to your hotel room, you can relive it again on the internet! Not pleasant...

The main event starts tomorrow so hopefully I will run well. For anyone interested, a couple of the guys that I work with have done a blog for the Melbourne trip, you can read it at the following address http://trojanfish.blogspot.com/ (http://trojanfish.blogspot.com/)
