    2.16am, & we are now Heads Up, after Leo McLean exited in 3rd place.
     
    Yeung has a 2.5/1 chip lead.

    Hoffman will be looking for a quick 2XUp I fancy, so this could be quite interesting.

    REMINDER - The Site is due to close shortly.

    To think Hoffman 3 outered me on river yesterday for his mtt life.  Thin margins.  He's used the chips well.

    Hi folks, I think I win the time competition as I had the latest time of 01:14.
    Not sure what day I want to play yet, can I tell you later this week?
    Thanks a lot, and thanks for the fantastic coverage over the last 5/6 days.
    I honestly prefer it to a live stream because it doesn't matter if you miss anything, you can just pick up from where you left it / fell asleep!!

    Well done to all those who cashed and well played Tighty, Tikay, Dan and everyone else who brought this event to life via their coverage.


    Just about to get on a train to Nottingham now. To collect my car.

    A big thank you to Tighty, Tkay and Dan on their hard work through the week. A special well done to Carl (Mohican) who I sat with throughout Day 2. Especially considering how he came back from 'a grain' when a move failed spectacularly. Great comeback!!!!

    There is an UTG open to 550k, flatted by the deep stacked Chippie on the button, with Mohican in the BB. And Mohican jams his 4 milly+ in. Opener folds, Chippie folds, oioi, have that dead money, that's another milly without even seeing a flop. LIKE

    Just seen this. I had Aces and couldn't think of how else to play it. 1.2 milly in the middle. Any reraise is pot committing and looks massive as I'm never folding, so in their eyes it goes.

    Thanks for the support and wishes people. Just read through the whole thread now and it's nice know people are sending the positives vibes. (Please send more when I'm AI with KK��). 
    If you don't know, I qualified for £16 so my ROI on this is massive. The whole tourney,trip,experience was superb and I'll deffo be trying to satellite into the next one. 
    As for being crestfallen, it was more a combination of little sleep, long days and mental overload finally being over. It was so intense at times that I even miscounted my stack(thought my 2 milly stacks were 1 milly). More of a relief and a quick chat with Simon Allen(who's appearance later on in matters to rail was a boost) over a brew in the reverted me back to my normal jovial self. 
    As for the money, plans are afoot for new bathroom,stair and landing carpet, new heating install, garden work, garage roof,stuff for the kids and couple of new tattoos. Any left may end up being punted over counter at my local Yamaha dealers. 
    Once again, thanks for the support, it means a lot. Hopefully it'll inspire someone else to make the most of their shot at a big pay day. 
    Regards,
    Mohican. 
    P.s. Thanks to Dave Thompson for a cheeky rail in the arvo. Also Tx to Chris Jones,who was railing the EM,for lending some support to me as well. Its massive seeing a friendly face and a cheer when you win a hand.

    Afternoon all.

    The timing of the finish last night was amazing, after it ended, we did the various interviews & photos etc, then I came back to the lappie to say "that's a wrap, night all & thank you for reading" at exactly 3am, & the site closed down as I typed it.
     
    I'll settle the competition & prizes tomorrow, & that may apply to all the other UKPC related Forum Fun Comps we ran during UKPC. I eventually left DTD at 0330, & drove back to London, arriving home at 0630, which was a 23 hour day, so I'm not in good shape today, head is all over the place, & I'll struggle to organise all the prizes today. I've also got a mountain of mail to reply to, & a bunch of other stuff, too. Please bear with me.

    That MAY mean some of you miss your prizes for tonight's Tuesday Turbo. My apologies for that, but ALL prizes will be honoured, & will roll forward to next week where necessary.

    Some sage words and advice from you helped too, esp away from the tables supping a couple of beers post day two.

    In Response to Re: Sky Poker £1m GTD UKPC Final Day : I desperately want Mohican to win. He has been playing for such a long time and has waited so patiently for a day like this.  A bit of Sky Poker history for you all - Mohican was the first player I ever knocked out of a tournament, back at an old SPT one-dayer in Luton in early 2010. He's been a dear friend ever since and he deserves this so much.

    must have been the only player you knocked out then,,lol

    Congrats to both yourself and Carl, a valiant effort by the pair of you.

    Many thanks to Tikay and the team for the updates.
