Go on Raj and Jack. Raj is the last of the oldschool grinders. Says he goes ad buys a new pair of jeans after every comp he goes deep in because he grinded the arse off the old pair. Lol!

a lot of people sat into these and the prizes are way in excess of what they normally get to play for. £9k is a holiday, overdraft cleared and free pokerz for a year to some...
takes all sorts.
on the subject a quick straw poll tells me that 6 of the 9 are in this via online sats for between £20 and £40
Excellent stuff, well played those guys

people forget the opportunity cost of winning £9k. Its not just the £9k in cash. It could also be £5k+ saved in interest on a £9k credit card/loan repayment etc which can be cleared early. So effectively the £9k is worth £14k potentially. Therefore in this case making a bad EV deal a good EV deal. Plus the added lack of stress of having debts hanging over you. Similarly if the player is staked into this the £9k might allow him to play his regular games without staking and keep a much bigger chunk of his future income to him/herself.
This event is one of the best events in the UK for mixing total amateurs (due to the sheer number of sat winners) and full time pros and everyone inbetween. I dont really get why people are surprised when diff months throw up different deals on the final table depending who is has reached the final table.

Loyd Houston doubles through James Tidey
Houston flatted in the sb with AA. Tidey shoved the bb with J6
Jack Allen doubles through Scott Eustace
Eustace raises AQ, Allen shoves 88, called for not a lot more
8 first card out

15 minute break
I mean, how bad do I need to run?. A 12pm start, and still nine left at 9pm. After a deal!

I doubt players who are finacially instable would make this +ev choice of repayment. I know a few degens who will just see it as 9k gambling tokens! I guess thats what brought them into the tourney in the first instance.

Would not surprise me if another deal is done on the break.
They come back playing for change.
I say job well done mate if that is the case get your self off.
The reports once again have been amazing.

I disagree. I think a fair number of sat winners (not all obv) treat the £20-£40 spent on a sat into the £300 deepstack as a casual bet like doing a football coupon etc. If they were given the chance to close out their football coupon with one game to go to win £9k most casual gamblers would probably choose to do this.

First hand back from the break Houston raises to 130,000
Eustace all in 600,000 bb
Houston long dwell fold
Average stacks <10xbb. Not many raise/folds left in any of these stacks
We really should speed through things now
No more deals in the break, mainly because 2-3 players got short just before it
