Title: Re: Sky Poker Tour Six Max: DTD 13-14 Oct Post by: tikay on September 12, 2012, 09:18:25 PM So no direct buy ins? Not at present, no. We want to give the Satellites first dibs at the seats. If there looks to be seats available after a few weeks, then we will make seats available for direct buy ins. Only Priority Players can buy-in direct for the time being. There are plenty of satellites available online. Hope to see you there. Title: Re: Sky Poker Tour Six Max: DTD 13-14 Oct Post by: strak33 on September 12, 2012, 09:20:22 PM Thank you

I'm not a techie chappie, but there was an Adobe Update a week or two ago I think the advice was to re & re-install the Client, or use the Browser version. Hope you get sorted.

Title: Re: Sky Poker Tour Six Max: DTD 13-14 Oct Post by: Knottikay on October 08, 2012, 01:29:27 PM I asked this question on the live stream of the 500 last night but it got ignored/by-passed/laughed at. Great job in the booth Mr Prew BTW....I really enjoyed watching that last night to the finish.
Q. Is that live stream (used last night) ever going to be used at SPT events coming up? I obv do not know costs involved and the like, but after the failure of any live stream at the SPT Final last month, would this not fit the bill for all those who do not make the event plus any family or friends who wish to follow the action? Will there be any 'special' sats this week for this? AIPF ones or poker points/turbo ones? I am trying to sat in still but finding it difficult with the lack of number of runners/seats available ATM. Title: Re: Sky Poker Tour Six Max: DTD 13-14 Oct Post by: kinboshi on October 08, 2012, 01:48:06 PM Can't play on Saturdays with a 2pm start during the season, but will definitely be there in the evening on Saturday for the cash games, which should be pretty busy I'd have thought?

Hi, Didn't spot your question last night and wouldn't have ignored it! The use of the DTD live stream is a cost issue. Sky obviously employ NutsTV to provide a stream for the whole weekend, around various tables. Not sure it makes great sense to then stop their feed for the final and use DTD's stream, incurring another set of costs Special sats, yes I believe so AIPF ones. tikay might be able to help further or I will post when I know for sure Title: Re: Sky Poker Tour Six Max: DTD 13-14 Oct Post by: jakally on October 08, 2012, 01:49:55 PM Can't play on Saturdays with a 2pm start during the season, but will definitely be there in the evening on Saturday for the cash games, which should be pretty busy I'd have thought?

I thought it might be a cost issue, but totally understand now that it would not really work for SPT's at DTD for your reasons stated. I hope Phil tests all his gear out on the Friday night this w/end now, and brings half a dozen spare mother boards/pc's/assistants with him too. Only 80 out of 150 seats gone so far. looking forward to see what specials are put on this week. I know it will sell out regardless though.

We did make enquiries of DTD at the Grand Final as to utilising their Live Stream facility, and Rich & I had several discussions with Mr Whiten about it, but there were lots of "issues" including cost. We also do not really want to upset the Nuts TV applecart, they have served us & others well for a long time, all over the UK, & we don't feel we should abandon them due to one unfortunate & unforeseeable fauilure.

Do you have any estimate of how many runners will be in the £25 & £50, not sure which one i want i want to play yet Title: Re: Sky Poker Tour Six Max: DTD 13-14 Oct Post by: TightEnd on October 08, 2012, 06:51:41 PM Over 100 in each. Normally rammed full on Sky festival weekend
the 25 for the Grand final Friday night had 155 Title: Re: Sky Poker Tour Six Max: DTD 13-14 Oct Post by: Tal on October 08, 2012, 06:56:33 PM I would 100% be playing this were I not playing the IPO in Dublin the weekend after. Love Six Max format but two expensive weekends in a row would be asking a bit much of what passes for my "roll".
Hope you all have a fab-u-lous weekend. Title: Re: Sky Poker Tour Six Max: DTD 13-14 Oct Post by: cambridgealex on October 08, 2012, 07:05:56 PM Me and the team are IN for this :)

No, news on those "extra/special" sats yet, no doubt we'll discuss them in this morning's M-M. I'm not 100% sure we will do them, as we are trying to balance priorities at present, with our biggest ever UKOPS Festival being announced today, which will carry with it a huge satellite schedule.

Can vouch for the father's credentials as a commentator - mainly quantity over quality, he should be available soon after the first card is dealt...

Splendid news. I'll try & fiddle the seat draw so you sit next to Chili, which should enure an early 2xup for you, then we'll get Chili to commentate whilst mid-steam, & she can demonstrate a Stream-Steam. She WAS very steamy last Sunday, let me tell you. Title: Re: Sky Poker Tour Six Max: DTD 13-14 Oct Post by: tikay on October 13, 2012, 11:12:04 AM I was at DTD last night, & the atmo was delicious, most of the boys were already there, & the craic was cracking.
It WILL sell-out though, it is now capped at 200, & we have over 150 already, so if you plan to play, PLEASE come early, & hopefully you'll still get a seat. There will be a Live Stream throughout, but please bear in mind it will be primarily directed at the Sky Poker community, & regulars, so it might not be to the taste of everyone. Or even anyone. I'm really looking forward to a terrific event, & weekend, & we at Sky Poker hope that everyone has a ball. That is the plan, anyway.

Thanks plenners. We are at the Rolls Royce of venues, it's a great structure, & 6-Max is very much on-message for Sky Poker, as it is almost totally a 6 Max Site, so yes, it should be great fun. I played this last year, & surprisingly (because I thought it would be a bit too aggro for me) I really loved it, & I went very deep. I have a "pass" to play today, too, but I played our last event, in September, as it was a sort of 65th birthday celebration, so I think I'll give it a miss today, & assist Tighty & co this time, as he was terribly overworked last time. I played last night, anyway, so I had my "fix" to tide me over. I had THE most fun hand, too. I was on a really fun table, everyone was on good terms, & it was not being taken too seriously. I managed to get the lot in pre with 2h 2d And I got called, very reasonably, by Ks Qs We saw this rather squeaky bum flop...... Js Ts 7c So, I have a few cards to dodge.... The turn paired the 10, so it was..... Js Ts 7c Td I had to dodge a few cards there....... It bricked, of course. How good do I run? I adore those sort of hands, it's what the game is about, & win or lose I would not have cared a jot either way. The £100 was won by some luckbox though, I forget his name. Into each life a little rain must fall.

Either make such comments off stream or preferably don't make them at all? Well done Alex. I don't believe I said that, and if I did, I apologise. I intended to say, and I believed I did, that IF they wished to leave something for the staff, they needed to sort it, as the prize money is paid into Sky Poker accounts, not in cash. As a postscript, I have no idea what the boys did by way of a staff gratuity, but Alex offered the Sky Poker crew a very handsome drink. We declined and suggested he give it to charity, which he did. I had not intended that my remarks went on the stream, but I was attempting to spin several plates simultaneously. Fail.

Like. Tikay, can you set us up? Title: Re: Sky Poker Tour Six Max: DTD 13-14 Oct Post by: SuuPRlim on October 15, 2012, 05:45:50 AM I felt slightly uneasy when, directly after the deal was verbally agreed, Tikay started suggesting the players leave something for the staff. Either make such comments off stream or preferably don't make them at all? Well done Alex. I don't believe I said that, and if I did, I apologise. I intended to say, and I believed I did, that IF they wished to leave something for the staff, they needed to sort it, as the prize money is paid into Sky Poker accounts, not in cash. As a postscript, I have no idea what the boys did by way of a staff gratuity, but Alex offered the Sky Poker crew a very handsome drink. We declined and suggested he give it to charity, which he did. I had not intended that my remarks went on the stream, but I was attempting to spin several plates simultaneously. Fail. Just FYI, it's completely common practice for staff running a tourney to say that, in fact I've never played a mid+ sized tournament where that wasn't said to the players on a final/deep-ish in the money. I'm not saying it's the right thing but it's completely standard I wouldn't have layed you 1/100 that someone was about to ask that.

Yes, I'm aware that is it common, almost standard, practice, in the bigger Tourneys, especially on Mainland Europe & the USA. However, it is not so much the case in smaller & medium size buy-in stuff. I think I've Hosted, Co-Hosted, or been "Ambassador" or Site Pro for around 60 Tournaments in the last 8 years, (Sporting Bet, William Hill, APAT, Sky Poker) and I don't think I have ever, not even once, privately or publically, suggested that the winners should tip the staff. So I was a little surprised at what the chap (Ricardo?) Posted last night, & I'm a bit curious as to why he Posted as he did. There is a world of difference between suggesting the staff are tipped, & suggesting how it is sorted IF they do so. I was mentally & physically shattered when things ended last night, my adrenelin levels collapsed the moment the deal was agreed, & I became almost overwhelmed with fatigue, so perhaps I never made myself clear. However, I'm 99.9% sure I would never have said what the Gent suggested I did, & I was a just a tad irked by his suggestion, perhaps because when I'm tired I do get a shade grumpy. It was one of those weeks, in truth, all sorts of stuff was mis-attributed to me. Never mind.

Pianoforte lessons for Miss Champion? I believe she is spoken for, though I don't pry. I can say she is a delight to work with, we only do one or two Shows together each month, but the social chemistry is very relaxed. She is most splendidly constructed, though I would have thought a little old for you. Her day job is as a DJ on Absolute Radio (Virgin Radio as was), & she does stuff for VH1 & MTV, & attends all the music fessies doing interviews & stuff. Think the "trade-mark" at those music festivals, V or whatever, is that she conducts the interviews in a beat-up VW Camper. She has promised me a Guest Slot on Absolute Radio, which I'm thrilled about.

Title: Re: Sky Poker Tour Six Max: DTD 13-14 Oct Post by: Knottikay on October 15, 2012, 12:17:12 PM I have decided to post here rather than next door as I have enough haters and slaters there! 1) I was disappointed in the deal being done so quick when it got to H/U TBH. For the followers of the live stream, it was like a F1 race finishing 10 laps from the end. However, having never been in that situation, I understand it was the players choice to do want they wish, but would of liked Sky Poker to of perhaps evoked DTD's rule of 'no deals'. 2) The discussion of tips etc was unfortunate to be heard by all on the stream but that has since been explained now. I would however like to flip it the other way though and say I am glad that I heard it, as it would not of crossed my mind before, but will do now if ever I am in that position in the future. 3) Still unsure about a 'book' being opened by players participating in the event. Again, unsure of the relevance of this point but this maybe should of been kept in house on here and not broadcast on the live stream? 4) As a prominent Sky Poker event, should the updates be more concentrated on that forum rather than on here? I understand that members here would only want to follow members from here. I also understand that those who wear two hats, it is a juggling act between the two and I can envisage how difficult it can be at times. I hope the above is taken how it is meant to be BTW, which is constructive critism/observation. If not, flame away....... **Finally, well done Mr Rob Young on his performance in the event and his donation of his winnings to charity**. Title: Re: Sky Poker Tour Six Max: DTD 13-14 Oct Post by: TightEnd on October 15, 2012, 12:22:29 PM Just to respond to point 4, Alan
There were chat box updates accompanying the live stream for a couple of days, and it was a conscious decision to put all the Sky Poker content on there rather than on a forum page where its tricky to update satisfactorily because the forum isn't that user friendly (no card notations, photos difficult etc etc) for an updater At the same time, because there were many blondes going deep in this and because blonde is associated with DTD, it made sense for me to update periodically on here too . I wouldn't do the same for a Sky Poker Tour event that wasn't at DTD, but various stars collide when SPT, DTD, blonde members are at the same event...... As you say, many hats syndrome!

I am not having ago just it always find it strange people object or don't understand when deals are done. Unless Poker becomes an spectator sport and the people entering it don't pay for the privilege of playing then they should/could do whatever they want in terms of deals. Making a MTT no deals just means more problems, unrest and 5am finishes.

If not, flame away....... **Finally, well done Mr Rob Young on his performance in the event and his donation of his winnings to charity**. Hi Alan, You've a very long way to go to match my total of haters & slaters....... 1) That was a matter for the 2 players. It happens in almost every Live Poker Event, & is the players right. Why is that a problem for those not involved? I bet that 80% of my Fessie Cashes ended in "business". The DTD "Rules" Deal was fully complied with, we did not over-rule them, or bring our own rules in, we submitted entirely to DTD's rules on that matter. The players had no duty or responsibility to vary their play to suit the "audience" or the Live Stream. I would have preferred to see it played out, just because it makes for a better climax, but I have no criticism of them for chopping, none whatsoever. If you were Heads Up in their spot would you be bothered about the best deal for yourself & your family, or would you refuse to deal so as to satisfy the Live Stream audience who were viewing for free? 2) You are the 2nd person to suggest it was "unfortunate" that my comment as to tips was broadcast. Why? I really don't understand why that is, to be honest. I simply made them aware that the prize money was being paid into their account, & as Rich Prew was blowing down my ear to remind them, I passed it on. I did say "IF" you wish to leave a tip, too, I did not say they should, or hint so. Why should I do that covertly, hand covering my microphone, all secret-wecret, as if it were something that I was ashamed of, or underhand? It may have been unprofessional - guilty as charged - but I had a stream microphone in one hand, Rich Prew asking me to make sure the lads knew the score, me trying to pass Tighty's message on, & in my other hand I was on my Mobile 'phone, as I was waiting to be patched through to the 861 Studio to do the Live Phone-In, the timing of which was spectacularly awkward for me. Why the need for secrecy over a standard conversation? I must be missing the point completely. Surely everyone knows about these things? 3) I'm a little uncomfy with that, too, but it was a matter for Alex, & not a Sky Poker matter. However, again, I don't have, want, or need skeletons in my or Sky Poker's cupboard, or secrets, so I'd much rather get on the front foot & make sure people are aware, rather than someone "revealing" it at a later date, perhaps to embarrass the Business. It WAS a highly unusual situation, but I did not want the facts twisted by someone else, so you heard it as it happened. The whole Sky Poker "Live Stream" thing is not designed or intended to be a "formal" belt & braces affair, it is intended (by me) to be informal, intimate, informed, chatty, & "as it was". It was all those things, I hope. Too much so for some, it seems. I'm not sure how else it could be given that Rich & I had to talk non-stop on the stream for around 20 hours. 4) Rich is best placed to answer Q4, but he was flat to the boards & trying to spin numerous plates, & I thought he did so incredibly well. You cannot possibly realise how hard he works. Normally Blandy would be on hand, too, but he was unavailable due to family related health reasons. PS - I may have been whooshed, but I know mentioned this to you previously, but it is Rob Yong, not Rob Young, & like most folks, he prefers to see it spelt correctly. I agree, it was a magnificent gesture by him to donate his prize monies to charity. Alex also donated some monies to charity, much respect to him, too. I thought there was a great deal to be positive about throughout the whole event, to be honest, it was played in great spirit, Alex suggested the best Tourney he had ever played in (or "most enjoyable"), & I'm more inclined to view the pros than the cons. Just my mindset I guess. The world of Online is a peculiar place.

I've always tried to make Live Streams a bit different, fit for purpose, intimate & informal, because I believe that style best suits that medium.

I confess, I am really starting to feel my age, I was utterly wrecked by the time we finished last night, & I still am, & so I'm off to bed shortly.

Title: Re: Sky Poker Tour Six Max: DTD 13-14 Oct Post by: tikay on October 15, 2012, 01:25:36 PM Just to respond to point 4, Alan There were chat box updates accompanying the live stream for a couple of days, and it was a conscious decision to put all the Sky Poker content on there rather than on a forum page where its tricky to update satisfactorily because the forum isn't that user friendly (no card notations, photos difficult etc etc) for an updater At the same time, because there were many blondes going deep in this and because blonde is associated with DTD, it made sense for me to update periodically on here too . I wouldn't do the same for a Sky Poker Tour event that wasn't at DTD, but various stars collide when SPT, DTD, blonde members are at the same event...... As you say, many hats syndrome! Thank you for your considered response. Like I said in the post, it was just an observation and I do fully understand how hard you do work at these events and I was by no means trying to reflect from that. Maybe the Sky Poker Forum could do with an update to a more user friendly version? Maybe, but really thats a matter to be Posted there, not here Alan. Rich's role with Sky Poker is mainly SPT-related. Title: Re: Sky Poker Tour Six Max: DTD 13-14 Oct Post by: tikay on October 15, 2012, 01:26:35 PM May I just say it looks like it was a cracking weekend and I'm glad to see so many supported the event. I almost made the irresponsible decision of coming and playing but head overruled heart for once. Will look to make the next one. It was as near perfect as it gets, or we thought it was, & most of the feedback from those who attended reflected that, no moans or groans at all, & DTD, as always, got it spot on. Next up, a one-dayer at Luton, in DEcember. I may get Vinni to commentate on live Stream there, then they'll really know about indiscretions..... OMG, this has filled me with a level of excitement I have never felt before!!! You not playing it then? Oh, wait......

Rich's role with Sky Poker is mainly SPT-related. exactly. Above my pay grade If Blandy and I had been there together, he would have done the chat stream and I'd have done more text updates (as we have done previously). With one of us writer types around only, its a question of prioritising what can be done. Title: Re: Sky Poker Tour Six Max: DTD 13-14 Oct Post by: Knottikay on October 15, 2012, 01:34:00 PM 1) I was disappointed in the deal being done so quick when it got to H/U TBH. For the followers of the live stream, it was like a F1 race finishing 10 laps from the end. However, having never been in that situation, I understand it was the players choice to do want they wish, but would of liked Sky Poker to of perhaps evoked DTD's rule of 'no deals'. I am not having ago just it always find it strange people object or don't understand when deals are done. Unless Poker becomes an spectator sport and the people entering it don't pay for the privilege of playing then they should/could do whatever they want in terms of deals. Making a MTT no deals just means more problems, unrest and 5am finishes. I totally understand why deals are done, as I run some pub games where I have to work out deals sometimes. Not the same i know, but I didnt 'object' to it, I was just dissapointed by it. My point was I honestly thought that DTD had a no deal policy now, and as a neutral viewer, would of liked to see more of the H/U battle. Title: Re: Sky Poker Tour Six Max: DTD 13-14 Oct Post by: TightEnd on October 15, 2012, 01:37:23 PM DTD have a no deals policy for their own events where prize pools are guaranteed at £50,000 or above
For third party events, its up to the event organiser (using DTD as the venue) as to policies on deals, payout mechanisms, how seats are sold etc Title: Re: Sky Poker Tour Six Max: DTD 13-14 Oct Post by: tikay on October 15, 2012, 01:38:10 PM 1) I was disappointed in the deal being done so quick when it got to H/U TBH.

My point was I honestly thought that DTD had a no deal policy now, and as a neutral viewer, would of liked to see more of the H/U battle. The very moment they began to discuss business, I immediately asked the TD to come across so as to ensure everything was fully compliant with their House Rules as well as ours. That was on the Live Stream, too. The £30,000 G'tee (which was ours, not there's) was below DTD's deal threshold apparently, so we could have no objections, nor could DTD. Title: Re: Sky Poker Tour Six Max: DTD 13-14 Oct Post by: Knottikay on October 15, 2012, 02:08:47 PM I have decided to post here rather than next door as I have enough haters and slaters there! 1) I was disappointed in the deal being done so quick when it got to H/U TBH. For the followers of the live stream, it was like a F1 race finishing 10 laps from the end. However, having never been in that situation, I understand it was the players choice to do want they wish, but would of liked Sky Poker to of perhaps evoked DTD's rule of 'no deals'. 2) The discussion of tips etc was unfortunate to be heard by all on the stream but that has since been explained now. I would however like to flip it the other way though and say I am glad that I heard it, as it would not of crossed my mind before, but will do now if ever I am in that position in the future. 3) Still unsure about a 'book' being opened by players participating in the event. Again, unsure of the relevance of this point but this maybe should of been kept in house on here and not broadcast on the live stream? 4) As a prominent Sky Poker event, should the updates be more concentrated on that forum rather than on here? I understand that members here would only want to follow members from here. I also understand that those who wear two hats, it is a juggling act between the two and I can envisage how difficult it can be at times. I hope the above is taken how it is meant to be BTW, which is constructive critism/observation. If not, flame away....... **Finally, well done Mr Rob Young on his performance in the event and his donation of his winnings to charity**. Hi Alan, You've a very long way to go to match my total of haters & slaters....... 1) That was a matter for the 2 players. It happens in almost every Live Poker Event, & is the players right. Why is that a problem for those not involved? I bet that 80% of my Fessie Cashes ended in "business". The DTD "Rules" Deal was fully complied with, we did not over-rule them, or bring our own rules in, we submitted entirely to DTD's rules on that matter. The players had no duty or responsibility to vary their play to suit the "audience" or the Live Stream. I would have preferred to see it played out, just because it makes for a better climax, but I have no criticism of them for chopping, none whatsoever. If you were Heads Up in their spot would you be bothered about the best deal for yourself & your family, or would you refuse to deal so as to satisfy the Live Stream audience who were viewing for free? Fair response. I did say it was an observation but it seems to of come across as critism which it was not meant to be. I honestly thought there was a no deal policy at DTD 2) You are the 2nd person to suggest it was "unfortunate" that my comment as to tips was broadcast. Why? I personnely did not have any issue with it but you have apologised already on here for it so I am a bit non plussed by your stance against me now about it. I really don't understand why that is, to be honest. I simply made them aware that the prize money was being paid into their account, & as Rich Prew was blowing down my ear to remind them, I passed it on. I did say "IF" you wish to leave a tip, too, I did not say they should, or hint so. Why should I do that covertly, hand covering my microphone, all secret-wecret, as if it were something that I was ashamed of, or underhand? It may have been unprofessional - guilty as charged - but I had a stream microphone in one hand, Rich Prew asking me to make sure the lads knew the score, me trying to pass Tighty's message on, & in my other hand I was on my Mobile 'phone, as I was waiting to be patched through to the 861 Studio to do the Live Phone-In, the timing of which was spectacularly awkward for me. Why the need for secrecy over a standard conversation? I must be missing the point completely. Surely everyone knows about these things? 3) I'm a little uncomfy with that, too, but it was a matter for Alex, & not a Sky Poker matter. However, again, I don't have, want, or need skeletons in my or Sky Poker's cupboard, or secrets, so I'd much rather get on the front foot & make sure people are aware, rather than someone "revealing" it at a later date, perhaps to embarrass the Business. It WAS a highly unusual situation, but I did not want the facts twisted by someone else, so you heard it as it happened. The whole Sky Poker "Live Stream" thing is not designed or intended to be a "formal" belt & braces affair, it is intended (by me) to be informal, intimate, informed, chatty, & "as it was". It was all those things, I hope. Too much so for some, it seems. I'm not sure how else it could be given that Rich & I had to talk non-stop on the stream for around 20 hours. Another fair response but I am just getting the feeling that your tone of reply is indicating that you thought my intial post was 100% critism as I have just read another reply to another poster stating you had no moans or groans from any at DTD etc 4) Rich is best placed to answer Q4, but he was flat to the boards & trying to spin numerous plates, & I thought he did so incredibly well. You cannot possibly realise how hard he works. Normally Blandy would be on hand, too, but he was unavailable due to family related health reasons. Again, this seems to of put me in bad light but I fully understand how hard Tighty works and I have even offered my help in the past. PS - I may have been whooshed, but I know mentioned this to you previously, but it is Rob Yong, not Rob Young, & like most folks, he prefers to see it spelt correctly. I totally apologise for this spelling error and it was not intentional. My mistake, sorry but I honestly do not remember you pointing it out to me before I agree, it was a magnificent gesture by him to donate his prize monies to charity. Alex also donated some monies to charity, much respect to him, too. I thought there was a great deal to be positive about throughout the whole event, to be honest, it was played in great spirit, Alex suggested the best Tourney he had ever played in (or "most enjoyable"), & I'm more inclined to view the pros than the cons. Just my mindset I guess. The above seems to be a dig at me for me having the audacity to post my views in here. TBH, I really wish I hadn't bothered now as it seems you do not care for any feed back. For avoidance of doubt, I think Sky do a great job at all the SPT events, esp those at DTD. The world of Online is a peculiar place. Yep, I best go back to my full time job of getting a ban from the Sky Poker Forum and leave you all to it on here.

That's it, no more, no less. There's no mardybum stuff, I just responded. If I want to "dig" at you, I shall do so privately, not in public. But I don't.

A big thank you to the good people from DTD and SkyPoker (Tighty, Tikay, Sarah and the thousand Dans etc) for putting on a very enjoyable event. I had a lot of fun. Congrats to all the cashers, FTers and Alex Golden for the trophy win. Many Kudos to Rob as well for donating his winnings. On how I played, well mixed feelings. A lot better than I've played live in a long time but still a long road ahead. Letting Rob off the hook in one huge spot pretty much killed my chances. Thanks again, I met many of the Blondes there and it was a pleasure to share a table with you.

Just a quick note to say thank you to The Gascoigne and The Goulder for their financial offers to help out the Homeless Shelter, Emanuelle House, that DTD is currently sponsoring. Nice gestures, much appreciated, and thanks to all the players that have chucked in £1 (and often more) this week.
