I"m in - had to go up to the $8R sat. Had a dream FT - almost didn"t want it to end. 2 seats, $55 for next 3 and $45 for 6th. It was the classic situation where I had the lead with about 25k, a few were on 12-16k and a couple had 6-8k and none of them wanted to risk getting knocked out without cashing. I was able to complete every hand and get to 35k without anyone playing back. Once we were in the cash, they should have been able to play freely, but they were all still mainly concerned with not getting knocked out rather than fighting for the other seat. By the time we were 5-handed, I had over 50k and they were all hanging in. The payout structure just gave a huge advantage to whoever hit the FT in the lead. It"s not often that games go so well.

Rob - I"ve got a seat now but, seeing as how you were willing to support me, you can still have the % if you want it. Not sure about the procedure now cos I didn"t get as far as putting up a staking thread. Maybe I should still do that. Or alternatively can arrange it off-piste if you are still interested in going ahead.

Hmmmm, I"ve got a job interview at 8am tomorrow. Of course, my interest in the tournament might be ended by 10pm and I could get an early night. On the other hand, if everything went my way, I could still be playing at interview time. Most likely is the worst of both worlds, ie crashing out 2-5am for no cash and little sleep.

If anyone knows a convincing reason why I need to rearrange, I"d be very grateful.
