    8 minutes in, & we have 72 runners.

    Meanwhile, on the very first hand of the day, we see a double-up for none other than Maria Demetriou, aka "chilli".
     
    Maria had A-K, & saw this run out......

    A-Q-K-A-10

    Pretty tough to get a double up there, unless your opponent has 10-10. Which they did.

    A nice Valentines Day Birthday Present for Maria, who celebrates her 47th birthday today.
     
    Maria won the first ever SPT (or was it SPUKT?) at DTD, 5 or 6 years ago, if my memory serves me correct.

    Not sure I'm getting 250bb in with 10s there. Obvs no idea how betting went, but so much beats you, and in a live first hand, I can't imagine someone is going apesh1t with worse.

    Roll on next weekend, watch me go out first hand with house over house ;)

    10's full (middle-aged, pleasant lady) bet the river, 6,000 I think, Maria made it 18,000, lady shoved, Maria made the hero call.

    Maybe I'm a nit but I wouldn't re-raise the river, we have like the nut worst FH on a board brimming with full house possibilities.

    Nice for AK though ;)

    Just spotted an old Sky Poker regular.

    Name this man, & his special claim to SPT fame.

    Chinese Frankie is here. Not seen him, but I've heard him.

    He managed to get in a 3 way all-in in Level 1. And lost.
     
    He has re-entered. 

    87 entries so far today.

    North of 100 runners now today, as play enters Level 5. 102 so far, which includes 12 re-entries.  

    Simon Trumper set a target of 100 Entries per day for yesterday & today, so he's ahead of forecast so far.

    Possibly, but when Day 2 starts, Blinds will be 3,000-6,000/1,000, so people won't be hanging about.
