Any sign of Lee? Winner of the Welsh APAT event. If you do see him, wish him luck.  Lee is playing today - Homer recognised him on the nickname list... he's already popular with the press, by the sound of it...

Overview and underview of the tournament area (rapidly filling with players):
I might as well apologise for the photo quality now, as it's quite atmospheric dark in there and the pics will either be a bit dark or scary with flash...

Spotted as they squeeze through the tournament room bottleneck (Player ID checked as they seem to be handing out champagne, which is nice):

Pictured: Andy Black with ever-growing earphones settling down.

Late sneakers in Praz Bansi and Karl Mahrenholz have been spotted too - apparently last minute drop outs allowed these British chancers to get in... I am sure there must be a Kerrigan here somewhere and I saw James Akenhead in the airport, so it looks like a full show for the Hit Squad.

Still life of John Shipley and Release Forms -
He pointed out that you sign the rights away throughout the 'universe' now, which seemed to amuse him...

Interestingly, the tournament has sold out with 500 runners, but the prizepool is actually only €2,350,000. There was no juice but this represents 6% of the prize fund, so really making this tournament a €4,700+€300 event.
Meanwhile I've discovered APAT winner Lee Mulligan, he's on the same table as Henning Granstad. Seems very calm and is looking forward to it, he's also very appreciative of the good luck messages.
We haven't started just yet, still a lot of people needing to sit down.

My earlier prediction of a timely start was clearly some kind of bok - they just don't seem ready to kick off, which must be something to do with the organisation rather than the players, as they don't have that silly "In your seat first hand or you're out" rule and could just shuffle up and deal regardless of the absentees...
A couple more minutes, and some cards will be played, surely...
