The Sky Poker Team in Vegas!
Hi All,
The Vegas Lite Winners Dan (Dantb10) and Tony (Haysie) plus Sky Poker regular James (BONZIE2) are well under way in their $1500 NL HE Event at the WSOP.
I've just uploaded a new blog with their progress after the 1st break so take a look in the Blog area. Myself and Tikay will be regularly updating the blogs page throughout the next week or two covering both this event and the $10,000 WSOP Main event featuring Will (Pokerbcity), Ben (Nutter5932) and Marco (Freelancer)
You can use this thread to rail them all throughout.
Go Team Sky Poker!

Unfortunately we had a bit of an issue today with those pesky pocket aces.
Tony gut busted by a villain with pocket aces, despite getting it all in on the flop with QcJc on a board of Kc10s7c
15 outs made tony fav against the bullets but he just couldn't hit :-( and sadly that was the end, but finishing around 1350th out of over 2800, after 6 hours play is no mean feat!
Moments later Dan got crippled when he raised it up with Big Slick, found one caller and hit a rainbow K high flop. All the chips went in but sadly his opponent had the goods again in the form of AA....
Despite this, Dan has worked his way up from just 3 big blinds to over 8000 chips, we'll give you all an update on how he finished up later today.
Finally, James had a tough time, after being moved to a new table with around 15 BB's he didn't play a hand for an hour. Then finally, with his tight table image assured, he picked up KK under the gun. Having just 8 BB's he chose to shove all in and was instant called by the player in the very next seat. Everyone else folded and the villain flipped over A10 (!) , an A hit on the flop and the rest is history....
Nevertheless we are all very proud of the way Tony and James played today in an ultra competitive field, don't miss out on tomorrow's Vegas update which will include an update on Dan's attempt to conquer the WSOP event having been down to just 3 BB's!
