    Wow.. where do I start?

    What an absolutely epic weekend..

    The main even was taken down in spectacular style by Mr Adam Bromley: 'Bromley04' with the MONSTER hand that is 
    33 against HU opponent Barry 'Jubie' Cobbs A7!!

    CONGRATULATIONS!!!

    Awesome work after nearly 12hours of solid poker!!

    Even more ironic since A7 is the hand Brommers had when he took out our very own Mr Julian Thew (Who put in an AWESOME performance and came a VERY respectable 3rd after being the 'bookies' favourite for much of the tourney..)

    HappyNige flew the flag for TKP and had the WHOLE of the Orange brigade cheering him on to an incredible 5th place finish!!! 

    The wonderful and softly smoothly jacketed JOCKBMW was possibly the most gracious and outwardly cheeful KO I have ever interviewed for a pretty fantastic 9th place finish.. WHAT A STAR!!!

    And Tikay and Blandie put in their usual 100miles per hour performances on both the live commentary and the web feed..

    As mentioned TKP were out en force and in full form complete with some fancy new T-shirts Organised by Solar and Sian ;) ...and a bunch of GORGEOUS matching orange flowers (Thanks JaegerPlop;) .. 

    Poker Journo Barry Carter.. Had a chipstack that threatened to crush everyone at various stages of the evening.. and ultimately proved his mettle with a 7th place finish..

    Team Sky Poker as always were a force to be reckoned with with Julian also coming a close second in the Friday night £50 Freezeout as well as his impressive 3rd on Saturday.. 

    In fact the only possible dampener on the WHOLE weekend.. was in the form of a very SMUG looking Orford who after a shockingly adequate run in the main event (Actually the boy did us all crazy proud with his play.. No thanks to Blandie, myself and Tikay..  arranging a £160 bounty prize on his head).. Then went on to Win the 'side event'.. A 50 player MTT for almost £250.

    The boy done good.

    He did less good when we got back to the hotel at stupid O'clock in the morning just to be told that that he'd have to go elsewhere as his room had been given to someone else. An oversight by the hotel!! EEEEK!!!

    Any way.. 

    I think it's safe to say that SPT Leeds was an unmitigated success.. As always a pleasure to match new faces to old friends and to catch up with the ONE thing Sky poker is best at.. It's COMMUNITY!!

    This moment right now.. Belongs to everyone who helped make SPT what is is.. And most of all to our CHAMPION of the moment:

    Mr Adam Bromley.

    Next up it's Leg 5: Cardiff

    Who will be there...

    Who will win..

    And will JaegerPlop ever find the bathroom... ;)



    Find out.. In the next exciting installment of...


    SKY POKER TOUR 2011

    Online qualifiers start here SOON!!!

    from the first sup of the amber nectar on friday evening to the time the ME finished, I must say it was prob one of the best weekends I've had, to put the faces to the names is always good, and as ever all the Sky Poker presenters, analysts and staff went out of their way to make everyone feel at ease.

    LML you were awesome and it was great to see you in such fine form.

    Heres to the next one

    AND OF COURSE THE NEXT TKP OUTING

       It was a most EXCELLENT Weekend VWP to Bromley04 on taking down the ME also Well Done to Nigel (TKP) & Peter both true Gents & Well Done to all that cashed over the 2 Days. Tikay & Sky Dave must run on Duracell Batteries they never stopped they & the Sky Poker Team did an Excellent Job. The Highlight for me was Happynige & Jock bmw reaching the Final Table & Lisa-Marie(who worked her socks off) doing the Interveiw with TKP

    Adam a fantastic performance mate, and you were a great example of how the game should be played,  gracious when you lost a pot and equally gracious when you won one.

    Well Played Mate

    Lisa .. what can I say.  You made the day utterly brilliant.  Hugh thanks for spending the time to talk to me and for making me feel so comfortable in front of the cameras.   

    Oh and the offer to come up to my room to see my "Slippers" still stands ;o)

    Haha!! Although nobody was laughing last night! The hotel got him a taxi to a room they'd reserved for him at ANOTHER hotel and presumably got him a cab back to his car first thing in the morning.

    Great to finally meet you Steve ;)

    Well, I'm back in the land of the living after an epic drive yesterday back to London stopping off in Bromsgrove and Banbury along the way to visit rellos.

    As LML intimated I had a bit of a bad beat when I arrived at the hotel at 2.30am on Sunday morning ready to crash out after 12 hours of solid poker. The management had generously decided in my absence to transfer me to a hotel on the other side of the city centre! It's ok though, they offered to pay for my cab there. Grrrr.

    So, I eventually got to sleep around 4, was up at 8 and then had the small matter of making my way back to the hotel where my car was parked on a morning that Leeds had decided to hold a marathon. Yes. A marathon. Cue muchos road blockage and diversionage.

    What is it with me and car-parking?

    Complicating matters was the discovery in my trouser pocket of my winnings from the side event last-longer the previous evening. £9. In casino chips. Yes, I'd forgotten to cash them in. So, what to do? A couple of quid and I would have written it off, as it was a major hassle to walk back to the casino with all my luggage through the marathon and then on to my original hotel for my car.

    £20 and it would have been a no-brainer. Straight to the casino to collect my cash. But £9? In the end after much wrestling with my conscience, I decided it was too much money to just chuck away- so there I was at 9am back in the Grosvenor, revisiting the scene of the crime the nght before. I must say- casinos at night are very glam. First thing in the morning, hmmm, not so. 

    It occured to me that a Sky Poker player might see me leaving the Grosvenor at 9am and then forevermore peg me as some sort of sick gambler. But this worry was nothing compared to the one I had the night before- that someone might see me going back to my hotel room clutching a glossy A4 sized photo of Tikay (provided by Machka). Can I have it in a plain brown envelope next time, Aaron?

    Anyway- I loved my time in Leeds. Great atmos and banter as ever, a reasonable run by me in the main event and a rather splendid run in the side event. But I'm not going to bang on about that. As I'm way too modest to mention how I crushed 50 of Sky Poker's finest. 

    Thought everyone was on top form and that the community are really starting to make this tour their own- with team colours, last-longers and players going out on the town together afterwards.

    The team did a terrific job of putting the whole show on- Tikay, Blandie, Tighty, Hoppy and Mother (jeez, has anyone got a normal name at Sky Poker?) and the rest of the behind the scenes crew.

    And well done LML- the SPT hostess with the mostess. Frankly, I don't think either Tikay or myself would have looked quite as fetching in that blue dress. Although I wouldn't mind trying it on at some stage, just to make sure.

    I'd like to close my statement with a word that Jaegerbomb and the staffroom corridor of the Grosvenor will be only too familiar with:

    Wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!

    Well done Bromley for winning at the weekend. Although you are a bit of an 'unknown' as you are not often on the forum etc, I know speaking to other regulars that you are a good consistent player and we meet quite often in tournies (including a main event final table which you won the other week).

    Also want to say well done to my mate Barry who came 2nd. He is 1 of the "Swindon Massive" in the words of Tikay who plays at the KC club regularly. A very good player.

    Wish I could of been there, but I'll deffo be at Cardiff.
