Great event. Great venue. Most importantly, great updates.
I'm gutted I couldn't be in for this.
Photo and chip count of Kane Thomason please Rich, Table 25 seat 2 I think. Gingerness will be apparent on arrival. Many a lookalike!

Mr Russell has definitely flown the flag for Marbella. I may well look to plan for Vegas a little more in advance or a little more off peak next time!
Flights are a bargain, and hotel is definitely within budget. And will most probably just BI.
I often play satellites on iPoker/DTD, but rarely on stars. Any tips on the 3x turbo rebuy sats? And if any are softer than expected?
I'd be happy with a seat, but a package would be a bonus.

Thank you Tony! I googled flights before posting on here. I've been to the states plenty of times out of season. But last minute they seem close to a £1000. Any tips? Then there is hotel to consider before even ploughing into bankroll! I've wanted to go for years, and I think I'm ready to crush sample the games out there, but I'm not sure if I've left it too late to book. Sigh.

Hello all,
It's April, and as yet, one hasn't booked a summer holiday or got any live plans for said pokers. I need to get out of the UK. I've been on 2 European city breaks, Prague & Berlin in 2 years and really could do with something more exotic.
I used to travel all the time with family, West coast USA, East Coast USA, Hong Kong, Europe, but since I've spread my wings, and left the nest post Uni, I seem to never get myself into gear booking holidays.
I've just bought a new car, so money isn't ever so present being on a Graduate wage, and building my live bankroll.
Does anyone have any suggestions for a Summer holiday that hopefully incorporates sun, a decent city/resort and poker at <£500 BI. Would prefer some decent live events, but happy with cash if tables always run!
I play every Deepstack I can make at DTD and played the MC too, so a big fan of well run tournaments with good long structures.
I'm very flexible on dates. As long as it doesn't clash with a certain fixture at that rather large stadium in London.

WP on binking the seats. Good work on the pics too.
Obviously its time for the run good to happen, but do you mind holding off as I'm now in seat 7 on your table!
Haha Thanks Jonny I have only just seen this. Out of interest what did you have the hand where I 3b your EP open and you CR the flop on K23rb? If I remember correctly, I may well have had a middle pair, I think it was 10's. I've been meaning to get on here for a while, I thought you'd be interested! What did you have? I had a read feeling that you may have had a pair yourself Jack's, maybe 9's, and weren't enjoying the King high board. Did you see my hand with Vinson? And everytime I see you, you're playing or deep in conversation, a proper introduction is still necessary! Especially as I'm now in the market for a first house...

Ul George. Horrendous run of cards
On my own side of things. 100k pot against BB who shoves pf with 85, against my 99. Flop 852. Good game.
Next orbit against same BB I open with AJ, he 3 bets and I shove for last 15bb, obviously this time he has QQ.
Top stuff DTD and Rich.

Last hand before the break
Folded to Kinboshi on the button who raises A-2o
Jonnyk calls in the small blind
4-6-A flop
check, bet call
A turn
bet, Kinboshi raise, jonnyk sets him in
think, nit fold considered, call
Kinboshi A-2
Jonnyk A-5
Kinboshi is busy funking for a high card to split the pot 2, when the 2 plonks itself down on the river for the double up to 100,000
Just horrid.
