"Two Hat tikay."

"tikay is a two hat." 


Hmmm.  Could catch on.....

Superb.

Morning all.

Bit rushed, never got to bed until 5am, and never woke until 11, so no time for details right now.

In yesterday's tourney, 7 of us did a Chompy, and we happily took $1,565. AND a hat.

Chuffed to bits, had the best day of the trip, made so many poker pals.

All good.

I suggested 3 different options, but as far as I can see, everyone has opted for Option 3, which is x% (varies) of $7,000. If I have misunderstood, please let me know.

So, as I understand it, this is the Team. I am awaiting final confirmation from 2 folks on this list, but I only just asked them, so may be a day or so yet.




Ralph 5%

Aaron (Machka) 5%

Mere 5%

Welsh Bloke 5%.

Liverpool fan 2%.

sharplea, 2%

Knottikay, 1%

Trip5 - 1%

Supernova 1%

Now for the bad news - I shall be sending you Bank Details for Payment shortly. ;(

Doobs, has "only" taken action in 3 specific Tournaments, details seperately.

He has....

20% of the $1,500 WSOP PLO8 on June 17th.

10% of the Venetian Big O on June 24th.

10% of the Venetian PLO8 on June 28th. 

Doobs payment is by Offset.

BUMPED, we are nearly there.....

Change of plan today, as I got a bit confused.

I forget it was the Venetian $1,100 Big O, and came Downtown by mistake to pay the Golden Nugget $230 ROE, PLO/PLO8, which starts in 5 minutes. Bugger.

Anyway, it means we have saved $860. Unless I bust the ROR early, in which case I will go over to the Venetian and play the Big O, which means we will have set fire to an extra $240.

Good luck sir!

Nice result tikay.

Now go for the hat-trick^*.

^*   Looked it up, it originates from cricket after Mr HH Stephenson got 3 wickets in 3 deliveries and was presented with a hat!

Opinion is very much divided on this one.

Another theory is that a player was allowed to go around the boundary with their hat and collect money from the crowd. Think there are others, too.

One of the most contested origin debates.

But it said so on wikipedia so it must be true.

I just hope this Nigerian email business opportunity / inheritence works out.  Then I'll show you.

Wiki says the former Egghead CJ de Mooi is rated in the top 40 chess players in the world.

That's about 65,000 out. As mistakes go, that's quite impressive.

[Tal]

I nevertheless love wikipedia and rely on it for a good chunk of the knowledge I pretend to have.

Chap walked past me in Bellagio a minute ago with his top off. Immediate reaction was disgust that someone would wander around inside without a top on.

Second was 'tbh if I was sculpted like that, I'd do the same'. Guy looked like he was an acrobat/gymnast type. Not stacked; just strong and ripped.

Still a dick for schlomping around without a shirt on, obv.

Good to see you yesterday Tikay, and congrats on a great result!

That was the first time I had ever played O8 live, and it was hugely enjoyable. We had a great table all day though, plenty of banter and on the most part everyone was really fun to play with.

Was very pleased to make it so close to the money, but obviously a bit gutted to get no return for 12 hours work.

I was going to play today, but had a rather late night and am feeling rather tired. Some comedy events transpired, but they're definitely not suitable for this diary

Good luck and I may pop down once I'm feeling a little more normal...

Thanks Dyl, good swerve then, don't fancy paying $1,100 for that with about 5 places paid.

Not much better here, only 45 runners, of which 28 remain. Am double average, but not really feeling it for some reason, am a little under the weather, so am glad I never went to Venetian.

Think today will be a short day, but I'll do my best.
