Thanks Rob, and I"m obviously chuffed to bits with the run, but there were people on that FT that have better claims than I do. Rastafish for one. Winning DTD deepstacks takes a lot of doing, and to also survive the fish-infested waters of a GP Day1 and then run super-deep takes some adjustment.

Brief trip report of Days 2 and 3

I got lucky when it mattered.
Highlights
8s 2c blind on blind, called, maths-based, by  10s 3s and rivering a club flush
Qh 8c getting doubled up by  4c 6c
both of those turned my stack from being pretty much guaranteed a call to a stack that could get folds

Obviously the  8s 10s vs George"s AQ was major, and as I said to George at the time, I just wish it had been against someone else. There were two at the table in particular that I"d have preferred to runner-runner.

The exit hand was just one of those things. I"m not keen on having people screaming for their cards to come in, and Rasta is pretty loud when he"s all in, but he shook my hand and apologised for it saying "it"s just how I am man, you know". Hard to take offence with him, he seems a really good bloke.


Was less keen on the rail for the evntual winner who went some way over the top on more than one occasion against players who just had to sit and bear it. Having a bunch of drunks screaming for you to be beaten shouldn"t be part of the live poker experience. (all IMO of course)

Erimus:
Hero, that is all wp again really enjoyed railing for the full 3 days.

mporter123:
Watched a lot of the live stream and thought you played really really well.
