Deauville main event, the story so far

[Karabiner]

O.K. I admit I was being a little bit sarcastic, but not having a go at you, you're doing a great job.

Willie got a few of his 'friends' to sign up to Sporting Options,
so it's somewhat ironic that he now wears Betfair's colours.

thanks jb.

So I take it we can all get some sleep in a little while. The remaining 18 will be back on Saturday or Sunday ?

Ooops! Didn't know that Karabiner. To be honest I only really play on PokerStars (and very rarely Party) so was not familiar with Sporting Options.
Does seem a little ironic now!
Keith, I THINK, it is Sunday down to final table with approx 2pm ish start then onto televised table. Don't quote me on that though, just seem to recall that from Copenhagen and Dublin, maybe another reader would perhaps know?

[tikay]

[Karabiner]

Really nice seat draw Tony !!

 

All the best matey, we're in no hurry for your reports.

[julian]

20 mins to go until we restart the last 18 - tikay is pacing around the room like a caged lion, he knows what he has to on a very chip heavy table.
mel & willie are on the other table which only has two stacks over 100k - the play will be pretty cagey on there.
they play down to the final eight this afternoon, i will try & update as much as poss before the 1000 event starts (in 2 hrs) - it's a good 15 min round trip from the card room to the bedroom & back again but i could do with the exercise.
i met bob coombes for the first time last night - what a lovely fella, he looks a shoe-in along with the camel to final in good shape.
i have a vested interest in 2 players, 2x5%'s - Come On Boys!

[Ruru]

well I'm cheering on the Betfair Poker boys - good luck to Willie, Jeremy and Bob.
