Day 1B Closing Chip Counts I can't guarantee this is everyone, but I think it is. (I've not got the count for Like2BiteU , but last time I saw him, not long back, he had 70,000 off his second bullet). These counts though are accurate as at close of play; InswinHere = 28,000 Dog Bloke = 42,900 CxE1 = 33,000 NickD = 88,000 LyonsBob = 34,200 gonedoggin = 12,200 When they return tomorrow (later today...) blinds will be 800-1,600/200. Play resumes at 2pm Local, which is 7pm UK, which is the very moment that UKOPS XVII kicks off, so quite a day in prospect. Posted by Tikay10
Great updates on day 1 Tikay. Gl everyone who made it to day 2 Is it just a 2dayer so it'll be all done and dusted today? How many started, how many got thru to day 2, how many paid? How many Sky players left? Posted by Lambert180
Hi Paul,
You caught me in my "rush hour" so I can't answer all of those right now, though most of the info is in the thread.
It is a FOUR DAY event, with the Final on Sunday. Today is Day 2.
Approx 12% of the field will be paid, & Ill be posting the payout structure shortly.
I'll post the number of runners/survivors a little later, when time permits.
In Response to Re: Punta Cana Classic Live Update : Can vinny's daughter give him a massage at the table, or is there a monopoly on such a thing?You know, to ease the discomfort.Loool. But seriously, me being a live poker virgin, who in these big tournies can approach the tables and who cant? Just officialdom?....yes i know the players and dealer can, so no wise cracks.glgl vinny, early du. Posted by chilling
Vinny's daughter, very sadly, is not here. There are, as at all big Live Tournaments, Massage Girls, they generally charge around $1 a minute.
Railers here can approach players at the table, but must not linger, or talk to the player whilst he/she is in a hand. Media (including Justin & I) are exempt, but must use our common-sense.
In the WSOP in Las Vegas, there is a physical rail, & spectators are not allowed inside the ropes, so cannot approach the players.
InswinHere lost half his stack against Oliver Optimistic who had spanners but got there.
He got the rest in with 2-2 v A-K, & as it happened Big Slick man missed the lot. However, the 5-5-6 flop was a scary one, them counterfeit jobbies are horrible, & it was instant service as along came the 6 on the turn, smoking a pipe, & that was that.
Are there any "big names" there? (i.e. non Sky Poker ones) Posted by FCHD
A few, Barny, Doug Polk just busted, & Humberto Brenes busted earlier.
The modern generation might not think Humberto is a "big" name, but he has a pretty impressive WSOP record if I recall correctly, with over 50 WSOP cashes to his name. He's semi local, too, think he comes from Costa Rica or somewhere similar. I don't actually know where Costa Rica is, but it sounds like is it this part of the world.

Like2BiteU actually won his seat here, in a Super Sat, & then had a 2nd bullet, but as far as we are concerned, he is one of ours.
if yesterday is to go by if you don't want to bust, best stay away from Tikay! ))
great updates Tikay though
Thanks

MAN OVERBOARD ALERT
InsLosesHere Alert
Another horrible one.
InswinHere lost half his stack against Oliver Optimistic who had spanners but got there.
He got the rest in with 2-2 v A-K, & as it happened Big Slick man missed the lot. However, the 5-5-6 flop was a scary one, them counterfeit jobbies are horrible, & it was instant service as along came the 6 on the turn, smoking a pipe, & that was that.
So InswinHere is OUTO

Correction
