    In Response to Re: WSOP Live Update - Three go into Four!:
    This is my first post on the forum, but after reading the messages from the last few days, I have to say a big thank you to all of the Sky community for all their support. It is quite amazing and it does help to know people are cheering you on back home. Although obviously upset to go out at such a late stage of the competition, it has been a tremendous experience and it has helped me to identify some flaws in my game. Hopefully I can work on this and come back as a better player. I have just got back to my room after they called the dinner break and hopefully we should see Sue and Tony cashing in the next few hours. I would like to thank them and the rest of the Sky team - Darren, Dan, Paul, not forgetting Claire and Tikay for helping to make this an unforgettable experience. I would also like to give a special mention to Haysie for putting up with me in a jet lagged state for 5 hours in the infamous Caesar's Palace tournament and Bendog for helping me reach my decision to come to Vegas at the Glasgow SPT. Finally, thanks go to the legend that is Tikay for his constant words of wisdom and support throughout the WSOP which helped me calm my nerves and keep my composure. Hopefully I will get to meet some of you at the Nottingham SPT. Cheers Guy

    Pack it in Guy, I'm welling up here!

    Remember this, Big Man. Sky Poker has THE greatest & loyal Community of any poker site, ever, anywhere, & it remembers & looks after it's own.

    You will always be special here now, end of story. When you play Tourneys, the Rail will always be buzzing.

    I know you are unable to get to Swansea SPT, but you are invited to Nottingham SPT Grand Final. And why not pop across to G-Luton now & then, & we can hook up?

    It's also a Producer's call, not mine, but I'm pretty sure you'll be invited to appear on Channel 865 as soon as it's convenient, too.

    Now, don't forget to come back downstairs to the Media Centre tonight if you feel up to it, as we'd love to do an Interview with you.

    How you clung in so long without any plyable hands I'll never know, but you did. Amazing stuff, & I doff my metaphorical cap to you.

    Arise, Sir Dire.

    Bless you mate. Top Guy. You`ve done marvellous to stay in the event for so long hunni. Only picking up several decentish cards for the whole of the event and to stay patient and last so long is impressive Guy.

    I hope that you are very proud of yourself..gutted maybe but PROUD!

    We are extremely proud of you and next time you do get some decent hands, I`m sure the outcome for you is going to be better than you expect! VWD Guy!
    Love Suzi xxx

    Yes Direwolf you have every reason to be proud.   Just so unlucky that you didn't manage to get in the cash.  Enjoy the rest of your trip in vegas :)

    Play resumes in THIRTY minutes. (8.30pm Local, 0430AM UK).

    Unless Harrahs have another change of mind.......

    You gotta feel for the low stacks, the "regular" players, who are vying for the biggest poker payday of their life.

    Still, I guess like all things, it'll be all the better for waiting. And all the worse if they don't cash.

    well done Guy--- you did a great job there !--- unlucky thats all-- you beat loads of big names, and did us all proud !!

    Hi All,

       Just taking time out in our room, before getting back to the action, but I just had to say thanks to you all for the fantastic support all you great people in the Sky community have given during the best four days we have ever had in Vegas. Knowing alot of you have  stayed up to support the three amigos has helped keep me focussed(and patient - OK TK?), and wanting to do well for everyone back home.

    Just 2 hrs play to get to Day 5  - God I can't believe I've just typed that.

    A special note to Guy:  Your such a great fella, and we are gutted for you, but you played great with the bad cards you got.

    Cheers

    Sue

    PS for Tony:  I've got £30 on you in the last longest so just think of last night lol

    Arise Lady Grimsby.

    Hi Sue

    Thank you for taking time out to post to us. We are very grateful. It means alot to see how your doing and feeling in yourself in such an enormous event.  So coming to post to us and your interviews all let us know.  And to be honest, I actually really do feel like I`m there now how long Ive been cyber railing you guys lol it really does! @ )

    Many congrats` to you for getting this far and Tony and as you say Guy. bless his heart was just unlucky that he didnt get anything really to run with the whole event.

    All the very very best in the rest of the event. I am quietly confident that you and Tony are both going to cash I feel it will just be a matter of the scale of the cash.

     Good luck hun and may the Poker Gods continue to shine on you xxx

    Play is about to commence, the players are seated.

    Claire has taken up station in the Cardroom, I'm at Base Camp.

    PS - I just bumped into an old pal of mine, Norweigan Johnny Lodden, who's got a BIG stack, & wished him well. "Thanks Old Man" he replied. Sigh, that's all.
