well done all thoroughly enjoyed the tourney, even if sue did knock me out. Like Sue though I am still dying to qualify so will be doing my utmost. GL in Vegas
Railed the final table and it was superb, I got nervous just watching. Massive congrats to Warlock and Limpet and superb sportsmanship by Uncle Pat, Kidgirly and the lad who bubbled (sorry can't remember your alias).
Strange there was a couple of idiots who were railing and had their own girly spat, why would you do that when people are playing for probably one of their biggest ambitions in their life.
In Response to Re: Viva Las Vegas 2011 : Disappointed to have finished 3rd, but congratulations to you and Warlock - hope you have a great time in Vegas. As you say, an incredibly tough game, especially the last hour, but I'm definitely up for trying again and still hoping to join you out there. Posted by pumpkin23
You played an excellent game Pumpkin, congrats on your cash win but massive commiserations for bubbling to Vegas - GL next time
many thanks everyone for all your support im well chuffed it was a very difficult tournament i think qualifying on Saturday straight through to Sundays final and not having time to dwell really helped. congratulations to kimpet c u there and commiserations to pumpkin also thank you to kidgirlgy sue for being gracious when my ak suited beat your aa (respect) and hope you and pumpkin qualify in the coming months.
Good Luck Mr Hinton! Mother will be ringing the winner(s) on the morning of Monday week to sort out flights, Hotel Suite, etc. It could be youuuuuuuu Posted by Tikay10

In Response to Re: Viva Las Vegas 2011 : thanks sue,cant wait to play.been playing loads. i take it u r going 2 vegas? Posted by hinton
Sue won the Viva Las Vegas final last year.
Over in Vegas she had an amazing run in the main event making Day 5 before eventually being knocked out in 332nd place for $36,423. I think she was the second highest placed lady. Not bad for the price of a VLV quarter final seat. I'm pretty sure she'll be trying to win a seat again this year.

Hi Hinton,
Brain at the ready:
There are 4 day 1's the sky players are spread across all 4
There's a days break followed by 2 days 2's
Another days break then day 3 to day 9 consecutively until you get the November 9
So out of your 10 days in Vegas you could be playing at least 6, and if you get to day 6 you Tkay & Claire will be staying on after the rest have left for home.
Each day is at least 4 1/2 levels of 2 hrs each, plus 2 hrs in breaks - 10 -11hrs a day

hello,really looking forward to next sundays final. hope there will b plenty of runners. how long does the final last for on average?
First post I see Hinton, welcome to the community. The finals take around 4 hours and gets between 20 & 30 runners. If I can win one, so can you.
