    So unlucky guys, like Blandy says though you've done something that thousands of us wish we could do. Congratulations on getting there and i hope the experience has wetted your appetite to do it again.

    Well done both players, you gave it your best shot in the main event and done us proud.  Hopefully you have enjoyed your experience.  Good luck with the rest of your trip.

    Unlucky both, wrong side of variance but wp still

    I'd love if johnny can do a blog when he gets back as he had a nice table draw, preferably in english pleae ;)

    Good luck those who are playing today(well tomorrow if your over there)

    Run good team!

    I know how they both feel because i qualifed with Sky for vegas in 2008 and i also exited on day one. They can do without smart comments from people that think they know better like Stafford.

    But one thing for certain is that they will have thorougly enjoyed playing in the WSOP ME, and they will defo enjoy the rest of their holiday, as i did! Vegas is an amazing place to be, so make the most of it. I did and i loved it! I still have fond memories of the trip of a lifetime with Sky Poker.

    As tikay has said many times Team Sky Poker is a bit special, and Jonny and Roy will rail and support the others im sure.

    Very unlucky both of you...on day 1 you are usually just one cooler from going out. And that doesnt just happen to Vegas rookies. This year as last year many superstars will meet the same fate.

    You both did great to get there, that is by far the hardest bit. Most of the people who make smart comments will never be able to say they have played the big one.

    So you now have the chance to really enjoy the rest of your time in Vegas with no pressure, whether its playing poker, or exploring the citys other delights.

    Me ? Jealous ? Of course I am..... just enjoy every minute of it !

    Unlucky guys. I'm sure when the dissapointment goes you will look back on your day fondly. Being able to play in the biggest tournament is quite an achievement.


  • edited July 2011
    Unlucky guys.  Still plenty of time, and tournies, in Vegas to take down tho.  Take a day off then go play at Venetian/Ceasers.

    See you around!

    Also to Staford your comments realy aren't needed.  Keep the bad vibes to yourself next time, ok?!

    Sorry to Terrell08 and w4rlock but I'm going to slightly disrail the thread and put up a 'Don't feed the Trolls' sign for everyone else.

    Trolls are just like door to door salesmen.  Ignore them and they eventually go away.

    Once again, great effort Terrell and W4rlock.  Get some drinks down you.

    Dave.....are you closing that dream team thread now? How many teams did you get in the end?
    Posted by MAXALLY
    No need to close the thread - the survey was set up to auto-shut at the right time. Means folks can have a chat and a sweat on there if needs be, etc. :)

    We had a total of 240 teams enter, so that's a nice field size for a £500 Freeroll. Good luck to you all!

    Comiserations to both players. At least you got there so be proud (unlike a certain player who has commentated on this thread and judging by his stats on Sharkscope his mouth is bigger than his talent)
    Best of luck to the remaining players.

    unlucky guys, im sure you have had and will continue to have a great time, you have done something most of us can only dream of doing.
