Its a tough one today. Every table packed with players I want to update..but only one pair of eyes and one pair of weary legs...

Don't think I have seen a single day at DTD with a better field than this for update potential in all the years I have done this


Happy to answer any requests, take ideas for whereto look next, and will be able to focus far more on detailed hands when we've lost a number of tables....
