Title: Congratulations to Phil Cooklin
Post by: tikay on April 03, 2016, 09:31:06 AM
Many of you will remember "snatiramas", aka Phil Cooklin, who used to regale blonde with some wonderefully written stories, & was a long term Luton G regular.

Last night, Next Door, he won himself a Las Vegas package.

Could not be more delighted for the fella.

Isn't it strange. I hadn't been on here for ages and came across this. Howdy all and thank you so much for the kind words. I have spent the last few years living a bit of life (oh and wrote a book) and have only played a couple of live tournaments. Then a few weeks ago I realised it was 10 years since the first time I qualified online for a trip to Vegas. Seemed like it might be time to try and mark the occasion.
I loaded up my account with £20.
I played the £4 satellite
I lost
I played another £4 satellite. I got through to the £18.......
then I lost
I played another £4 satellite. I got through to the £18.....
then I got through to the £82 semi final.....then the cheek of it all, I went and came 6th when there were five seats for the final. There was money for coming sixth and I have to be honest, I have never won in excess of £200 with more anger.
The bankroll now looks good however so I graduate myself to the £18....then the 82.......then the final...and would you know it whoop whoop Vegas Baby!!!!! So excited. Will probably start playing a bit of live before I go..... It's about to get very noisy
