Any danger of this being the 1st GUKPT tourney to start on time?

No chance! Players still sitting down filling out forms... |

Well, we're only 15 minutes past the advertised time and we hear (from two floors up and two corridors across) that it's been shuffled up...
Many a player has squeezed into the unlikely double cardroom area of Brighton Grosvenor (separated by some tables, roulette etc. so during a seat change a tempted person could sneakily put a quick red-black bet on) and the press area is a good quarter of a mile from the action, so please bear with us as we gather stories in little batches and put them up every so often...
Spotted arriving late:
Neil Channing
Dave Colclough
Victoria Coren
Karl 'Blue Square Hit Squad' Mahrenholz
Spotted milling around:
One Ear Pab
Sunny Chattha
Jim Kerrigan
Nik Persaud
Early stage photo collection time now... Bear with us. We also have no power, so after an hour there may be a short blackout as we fight the other 11 laptops for one of their power sockets. I have been training Homer a la Rocky for just such a necessity.

Most of the bets placed so far seem more like hopeful punts rather than value spots

It's squeezier than a squeezy squeeze play in the cardroom. Just to clarify, there is like next to no room in the centre, so if a player gets knocked out in the middle, he really needs Air and Sea Rescue to winch him out to safety. There's two sections with loads of gaming tables (strategically) placed in between, either way we might have a little trouble getting chip counts and hands from those in the centre of this maelstrom.
Play has started now anyway. 156 runners counted today...
