Title: Richard Gryko - Best Man! Post by: tikay on March 09, 2005, 02:23:36 AM Mr Colcliough just been on the 'phone from Vienna. He tells me that Richard Gryko has won the award for "Best All-Round Player", & with it a handy 5,200 Euros.
Since Saturday, Richard has made 3 finals, as follows: Saturday, 500 Euro NLH, 2nd, 10,700 Euros. Monday, 500 Euro PLH, 9th, 1,550 Euros Tuesday, 1,000 Euro NLH, 7th, 3,480 Euros. So that's nearly 21,000 Euros in 4 days, & there's still the biggie to come. Richard is a tremendous chip-getter, but his "foot to the floor" non-stop aggression often results in near misses. Congats from all at blonde to Richard - well done! And as a bonus, those 3 results give him a hefty dollop of points - 1,950 by my reckoning - iin the WilliamHillPoker.com European Rankings, as published on PokerinEurope.com. Intertops (see link on our news page under "Vienna Betting") have Richard priced at a hefty 101/1 to win the Main Event in Vienna, & 21/1 to finish in the top three. Valoooooo! You will be able to follow Richard's progress in the Main Event on blondepoker's Live Updates. Title: Re: Richard Gryko - Best Man!

Just one thing missing from the above testimonies...... ....Richard Gryko is also a jolly nice bloke too! He kept me on a knife edge til 4.30 am with his play in Saturdays NLHE but it was entertaining and good natured stuff all the way. And the amazing thing was, I started the tourney in the seat next to him....so I suppose I nearly won 10 grand!!! NOT!!! :) Title: Re: Richard Gryko - Best Man!
