Splashies - 7/1  (Solid player who will win this if he wins some flips) Robbie1992 7/1 (Yet another diary entry with his bad beat exit hand no doubt) Penfifteen - 100/1 (He will be put off by the TKP rail team!)

    U would soon be a broke bookie Alan. At your odds u could back all the runners and guarantee a profit.

    Thank you for the picks guys.

    Waller, after looking at Maxy's odds we might need to have a chat.  I can see an upset coming out of this, after I bet a chunk on each of the other guys' odds  ;)  Trying to fix a freeroll, how low can I go?

    BTW, since Top of the posts started I made a conscious decision that if I ever was selected any money I got out of it would got to charity.  As this is a forum freeroll I can't think of a better choice than AceBarry's chosen one of Sheffield Shopmobilty.  Whatever I win will be going there.

    Thanks again guys.

    Look tommy we can't deny the fact that maxy obviously recognises the true dangerman here, we'll finish this on the table!!  :)

    On a serious note, very kind gesture. I'm not in a position to do the same, however I may have to let you win now (excuse out of the way)

    You misunderstand me Waller.  I'm saying we both bet £100 on each of the other 4 guys and then dump all of our chips to Pen.  ;)

    Good luck man, see you tomorrow night!

    Are those odds in play Maxy?

    Thanks for the entry Sky - and thanks Dunmidosh for the nomination !

    Your chips are always welcome Tommy - not too much vinegar though ;)

    As for Alan's odds, I wouldn't stick a quid on myself at the price, not enough zero's by far !

    They were put on this morning by Sky Bet. Unfortunately, they have been removed because of a whisper of some skulldukery   going ons which included pillars of the community colluding and fixing the result. No wonder this is the last one for a while. Hope you are proud of yourselves! :)

    After you've spoken to customer care about changing your hilarious alias, you can start posting on the forum. If you're helpful and contribute a lot, you might be given a seat in the SNG. It's not a random freeroll with a password.

    It's all in the first post of this thread. Some of that information is out of date but the general idea is unchanged.

    I'd like to echo the above posts, thanks for everyone who nominated me, and I really enjoyed the game (except for getting a bad beat by Pen 15!)

    I ended up in 5th for £15, which may not seem a lot to some of you but is actually my highest ever "cash" beating a £13.something I won on a mini Primo a few months ago.

    One thing, though, for Sky - wouldn't it make sense to notify those players in the event that they actually have a seat? I don't frequent this thread normally - I assumed it related to "Top of The Pots" which is a subject I have zero interest in, and only by chance was I still logged in when the tournament popped up. If my last DYM of the evening had ended a couple of minutes earlier I would have been none the wiser until I queried tomorrow why my account balance had gone up!

    Thanks again for the nominations, I will keep the WSOP thread going until the November Nine is set (of course including our hero Tikay)....

    I have to say, I railed the tournament and to be honest it displayed everything thats good about the forum!
    Skill, etiquette and banter!
    Well done Splashies for winning!
    You must have saved Maxally a fortune stopping the rag (penfifteen) from springing a 100/1 surprise! lol

    I'd like to nominate Beaneh
    Love or loathe his comments
    He always tells things as he sees them
    But more than that, every time I've had a problem with my system within minutes he's explained  what to do!

    I agree, but i'm not sure it would be allowed.
    But what a great idea to spice up top of the posts!
    What about the monthly winner being invited to play the presenter/analyst to halve or double their winnings
    with the hands shown on analyse my play on a live show?
    Beaneh v Ryan would be a great heads up to rail IMO
