SPT Newcastle Live Update thread. Leg 2 of the 2010-11 Tour
From Saturday at 2pm this thread, wifi permitting, will bring you a live update of the second leg of the 2010-11 Sky Poker Tour from Aspers in Newcastle
The event is sold out, and probably could have sold out again
So if you can't make it, or are playing and want friends/family to check out your progress...please do so by this thread
Hands, pictures, stories etc etc
Rumour has it that the Sky analyst tikay is playing the event. His first SPT.
So, to kick the thread off we have one of our regular SPT competitions for you
150 runners
Where will tikay finish?
Some clues
a) He may fall asleep and involuntarily blind away, which prevents him getting knocked out
conversely
b) He may have an irresitible urge to get on the microphone, rather than play too much
and
c) He's phenomenally lucky
So guesses please
Closest to the bull wins an SPT Primo seat
Joint winner tiebreaker (closest of any joint winners gets it)
Question: With 750,000 chips in play, what will be the highest chip stack recorded for tikay on the live update thread?
two answers then
Finishing position
Highest Chip stack recorded
good luck, and see many of you in Newcastle
