    Thanks TK and Claire for this tremendous coverage. Awesome play from all.

    WOW....Brilliant stuff. Unfortunately the dinner break done for me and I managed to fall asleep in my computer chair, which I suppose is an achievement in itself.

    Would just like to say

    BOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMM

    to Tony and Sue. Chuffed to bits for you both to be in the cash which makes it all the more special for Tikay, Claire and all the other Sky staff in Vegas. :0)

    Went to bed at 1am this morning with about 14 pages on here. I could have skipped to the last page to find out the results but I started from where I left off as I didn't want to miss one heart stopping minute of this incredible saga.

    As I've said before, Guy you were so unlucky mate to go out when you did.

    Tony. Well done for hanging on in there and cashing, you've done yourself and the whole Sky poker community proud.

    As for Sue, words fail me! You've made some pretty impressive achievements. To bounce back from running on fumes to nearly 400k in chips is breathtaking. To outlast countless pro's and superstars of poker is amazing. To be one of the last 10 lady players in the tournement is almost unbelievable (Annie Duke, eat your heart out!!!). To get into Day 5....who's to say how far you will go. You should be immensely proud of everything you've managed to do so far!

    Tikay me old buddy, as usual you're doing your impeccable work as per usual and may I say that if and when you decide to hang up your boots you will be sorely missed - mind you, I keep having these flash forwards of you sitting in one of these pensioner racing carts and presenting from WSOP 2020!

    Another thing Tikay.......Less of these "And I'll let you know the scores.....right after the break" scenarios. You've been giving me kittens!

    Claire. Well done on all your fine work in keeping us all up to date with everything and most of all.....Keeping Tikay under control which in itself is a job and a half!

    Lolufold......As an independant entry into all this (though still part of the Sky Poker family),  well done mate, it looks like you've got a good chance of final tabling (watch out for Sue, she's coming up behind you!).

    As for the rest of us, we'll be cheering you both all the way!!

    Well done Sky Poker....How many other teams can say they managed to get a third of their players through the bubble?

    Come On Sue!!!

  • edited July 2010
    OMG i was nervous reading through the updates this morning as had alot to catch up, glad i didn't stay up although i did end up watching that poker lounge on C4

    Well done Sue keep it going, your doing great and we are all very proud of you. wishing you all the luck in the world!!! x

    Tony well done on the cash, excellent effort hanging in there and we are all proud of you

    Guy-Direwolf as i said your a hero to go so far and so near, nice to hear from you on here and chin up obviously wasn't meant to be :o( but your still a legend

    I am so proud of all the sky poker players who have done soo well, hopefully one day that will be me

    Last thing i bet Candi still hasn't gone to sleep lol x

    forced to get some sleep at about 3am. just woke up to find that both our players have cashed...OMG!!!
    well played Tony..nice cash for you m8. unlucky to go out.
    very well played Sue...keep it going...and going...and going!!

    thanks Tikay and Claire for the amazing, frustrating and heart attack giving updates. another day in Vegas for you, and i hope a bit of a rest afterwards to see the sights etc!!
  • edited July 2010
    Don't really know what to say :

    OMG...Marvellous....Superb....Awesome....WOW !!

    Really chuffed for Tony & Sue, unlucky Guy but you can hold your head up high WP.

    Just like to thank TK & Attila for both doing a GREAT job.

    Keep going Sue.....Go girl :)

    Have got home from work this morning and sat down and read all 32 pages of this thread. WOW!!! Seriously, somebody at sky should take the whole of this one thread and publish it. It was such a joy, and so intense  reading the updates and the comments from this fantastic community, the good wishes, the countdown to the bubble, TK andClaire doing their stuff. I can tell you i have read many books that don't contain as much drama as these 32 pages, amazing stuff.

    Can i just that to Guy (Direwolf). Sir, a fantastic achievement and so so unlucky to be card dead at such a vital stage.

    Tony (Penguin7) Having seen you regularly playing on 865, can i say that it is no real surprise that you cashed. With that game of yours, i can foresee bigger rewards coming your way in the future.

    Last but not least, the amazing Sue, day 5 an all that, millions of congratulations my dear, bet the kid can't get over that one eh! You make us all in the community very proud to be part of this family. GO GET EM GIRL!!!

    One last thought, why is life so cruel? Like Sue i am from Grimsby, and like Tony i am a coach driver! I get half of each of them but their other half is the half that's good at poker. Oh fickle fate lol

    GO SUE.....

    Fantastic performance all - you've done everyone proud! Like others I went to bed at page 14 and saw prospect of another 20 pages to read this morning - refused to skip to the end though as wanted the whole experience so thanks for all the heart stopping moments Tikay :( can only echo others in saying many thanks to you and Claire for the superb work you're doing! Sue and LOL keep going and let's get two players in the November 9 - here's to another amazing day!

    Table draw looks brilliant Sue - great experience sitting with Benyamine and Liu but make sure you watch out for EMPTY...he's dangerous!

  • edited July 2010

    What a great table, and even better, look at the stacks - Sue can be really competative and have a go at them with her stack, after a nervous day of hanging on, surviving, shoving of folding, she can go into tomorrow feeling like a freeroll - and also with plenty of weapons to do some damage!

    Every chance of being featured on some of the TV coverage now too.
  • edited July 2010

    Wow. Eric Liu is one of my favourtie poker players. Sue, he's real aggresive and will constantly ask you the question even if you dont have a hand. If you think you have the winning hand, re-raise him all the way :)
    I'm quite excited for you :)

    Sue......looks like you're going to get an interesting table but don't be overawed by the opposition (you know who I mean) If they start giving you grief and you've got the goods...........GIVE 'EM HELL!!!
  • edited July 2010

    Am I right in saying that this is the third year that Sky have sent players to the WSOP and each year at least one player has cashed?

    Good luck Sue

    best of luck Sue, stick at it.


    also well done Tony.
