Albert "Honey Monster" Sapiano. Albert is the UK's biggest honey importer. His claim to fame is that he has never folded a hand pre-flp in NLH.
The nightmare scenario is Albert playing PLO8. There is NO hand he can fold in that. Sky Poker MTT regular "Doooobs" once played a PLO8 Comp @ The Vic, & was sat next to Doobs. Doobs is a profitable & experienced PLO8 player, but that night was a bit of a shock to his system.....
Measured by HOW MANY PLAYERS, & prior to this week, what is the biggest "Live" 6 Max Event ever held in the UK? I can only think of 2 which surpassed 400 runners, & both were held @ DTD. Name them. For a bonus point, do you know of any other 6-Max event in the UK ("Live") which topped 400 runners? Not a trick question, I'm just curious if we are into record breaking territory. Posted by Tikay10
The UKIPT Six Max at DTD last november was 458 runners

As Slykllist said, the UKPC 6-Max, which got, I think, 402.
Tikay do u know if pleno plans to be there for the main? Posted by Lambert180
Yes, last I heard he plans to arrive late on Monday evening, & will stay all week. He's trying to arrive in time for the High Roller, but may be too late.
For those unaware of "pleno", he is Patrick Leonard, currently near the top of the Online Rankings. "Best in the Business".
Was due to be a Guest on Ch 861 recently, but things went a bit wrong.
Do we know what the payout will be? 1st place? (Roughly) Posted by HiJoker
No, not yet, the payouts can't be established until the total number of entries are known.
Shoild be available around 6pm this evening or just after, once Late Reg has closed.
Should be a shade over £150,000 in the prizepool at a guess, though don't forget £50,000 of that goes to the Top 50, who all win a £1,000 Main Event Seat.
No idea what the 1st prize will be, maybe £20k give or take a few k?

As at 1.30pm, 221 entries. This EXCLUDES Re-Entries.
The first break of the day has begun, 3 levels have been completed.
Excluding re-entries, 229 runners so far.
In total, with just under 4 hours of Late Reg remaining, there have been 516 entries over the 3 days.
Think that breaks the record for the most entries in a Live 6-Max in the UK?
Just spotted another WSOP Bracelet winner in the house, 8-6......

With 1.5 Levels of Late Reg remaining, entries for today have just topped 300, an amazing turnout.
The current number is 302, so 11 more needed to make a very ambitious Guarantee.
Gonna be on the nod......
