http://www.blondepoker.com/index.php?q=node/4101It's been a thoroughly entertaining week, hectic but fun, with plenty of action to hold our interest.
Seeing someone of the calibre of Phil Ivey at the final table was simply delightful. With Phil playing the latter stages you're sure to witness some intriguing hands, and, secretly, I always find it reassuring to see THE best player in the World win the big money. - it reminds me that poker isn't the solely luck orientated game that so many losing players claim it to be.
Before we head off, a quick thanks to John Duthie and his team. Although media access wasn't great during the final 2 days, this was the fault of the Casino itself rather than the EPT guys. In terms of media treatment, John Duthie is one of the best and always ensures that we are well looked after with a nice place to work (comfy seats were a welcome addition), multiple emails updating us on the state of affairs and free drinks (soft, unfortunately) at the bar. It's not perfect just yet, but it's difficult to complain this much. We'll leave that for next time at the London EPT...
Let's just hope that one day blondepoker have their own office/stall at every EPT. Live the dream!
So, I guess that's it from Barcelona. As a famous Beagle once said...
