at the dublin ept 2006, skalie was a big chip leader with 20 runners left. he had accumulated his chips by playing his usual, hyper aggressive game. he decided to tighten up and didn't even make the final table.

it is his one regret in poker. he has sworn that he will never change his game plan again. he will play the game that got him there.

he has been sitting with these guys for days. he knows how they play. he is afraid of nobody. he loves the attention. this is his finest hour.

bring it home mate

I'd spend the day enjoying my five minutes of fame. Do all the interviews and stuff to get completely comfortable with the set up. Have a meal with a few beers and some mates and head to bed relatively early 9because I would be recoverign from the night before!) I'd aim for a good 10 hours sleep or more - either way tomorrow night wouldnt be ending before breakfast! I'd be climbing the ladder to fourth tbh. A millionaire in sterling would be nice enough then freerolling on the win! Not sure I'd want to win it - my boss would probably find out i play poker!!

I was very ante deals, BUT it would be almost impossible to refuse to "lock up" £1mill and play for the title + $3mill extra.

£1mill is defo life changing.

Any thoughts?

Agreed. Even 750K.

Jon has the game to take these apart, met him in Belfast and he's a lovely guy, that was 18 months ago and he said to me over a beer 'I'm going to take down a big one one day, I know I've got it in me'

Tonight's the night mate, go get em.

And Norm if you get a chance wish him ll the best from me.

Oh I do not doubt John's ability in any shape or form - far from it.

My point is, £1mill is ALOT different from £250k - £1mill = no money worries ever, whereas £250k, hmmmmmm

I am not sure what I would do if offered that deal, I dont think anyone can be unless you are in that position.

Anyway, whatever John is doing,,,, i am as envious as hell and wish it was me! lol

I will say it again, "ONE TIME!!!!" Come on Skalie m8

This whole thing is getting quite emotional - I dont know this guy but I am so excited for him.

I used to laugh at the people on Deal or No deal when they held hands......now I'm not so sure ..bizarre.. but I want so much for Skalie to win this.

Is this the same as the WPT - no deals allowed or instant disqualification?

Rule 35 "Prizes and entries are non-transferable."

I'd be asking Stuart Fox for WSOP final table advice, and thus spend Tuesday in my hotel room with a couple of hookers watching my cards get folded to 2nd place on the live TV feed.

What a ridiculous answer.




















Why only two hookers ?
