Fonzie14 Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 Re: List of PL Qualifiers for the Virgin Festival in Newcastle Quick note a little conerning did you have to confirm you were attending the festival? I havent recieved any e-mails about the festival. ie car parking or to confirm I got an email with the festival details (a copy of which is posted on the site somewhere I think), but that's all. Aspers is in a mall (G centre I think) which has a car park underneath, don't know if the car park closes when the shops etc do though. When we left last night we had to use the 'back door', ie not the one into the mall. Might be worth phoning the casino 01912550400 to find out.:unsure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

runadrum Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 Re: List of PL Qualifiers for the Virgin Festival in Newcastle Noticed Runadrum in the video of the last 19 players. :clap Hopefully he managed to beat his Aussie Millions finishing position, if not his prize money. ;) Thanks for the links to the videos. :ok Thanks Red - finished 15th for £250. 19th wasn't a money critical position (16th-19th the same prize level, £175) but I did note the significance to myself and made sure I was 18th or better ! I started today in 28th of the 49 left on 38550, average was 46000 approx. Told myself not to make the same mistake as in Australia when on my final day the only hand I played was the one that took me out. So got involved in a few pots, got up to 87000 and just ahead of the average when the blinds and antes got really serious but my cards weren't ! Eventually down on 44k, my SB was 7.5k, antes were 1k, folded round to me so pushed all-in with TJ. BB had about 150k and A2. Aces on flop and river (K on river would have made me a straight) and I was out. Have now 'cashed' in my last three live tournaments so I'll settle for that ! As always, great to meet existing PL friends and new. Sat out of the forum challenge as was pretty tired but stayed to watch and it was played in a fantastic spirit, a credit to all concerned, and (dare I say it) I think the paper result was secondary to everyone getting together :clap:clap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

avongirl Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 Re: List of PL Qualifiers for the Virgin Festival in Newcastle Will reiterate regarding the forum challenge. Everyone played this in a great spirit with only friendly banter. Morls did a brilliant job of sorting out the team and finding everyone as we were scattered about the casino and then played a captain's game, being the last table to finish and losing out in a nip and tuck battle with a guy from EMS. The whole team did us proud, and so did the two who played for other forums, managing to make an early exit. :lol Morls also managed to us get a Vegas satellite seat (or something like that) for the longest lasting PLer not to make the money, after it had been announced that AWOP were getting one. Nice work Graeme. :ok I believe this will go to Mad Duke who went out late on day 1, but will need verifying. News of my demise seems not to have reached you all. :eyes I lasted until around 11pm, having moved tables 5 times I think, I ended up sat next to the pro and bounty Maria Demetriou. Sitting with 27k chips I look down at QQ (the best pair I'd seen up to then was 99), Maria on similar stack to me raised to 10k, I pushed all in, folded back round to her and she called, turning over 55. The 5 came on the flop with nothing to help me and after a count up she just had me covered, so out I went in 64th, leaving just Mad Duke, Run, Mole and Boropk running for us. Stopped at 50 runners overnight with 3 left in, and all 3 made the money. :clap We actually thought Mole had bubbled, but he jammily made it in 25th after 2 went out together just before. Run 15th and Boro 13th. :clap:clap Great casino and thoroughly enjoyable tournament so already looking forward to the next one. A big thank you again from me to slapdash who let me use his seat. I think I did it justice. :ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

avongirl Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 Re: List of PL Qualifiers for the Virgin Festival in Newcastle :lol @ morls. Should just add to mine, that it was great to meet up with the regulars again, and to meet several people for the first time. This is where I miss someone out....:$ Mad Duke, who is never going to drink whisky with the Mole again, Gilsan and Borokp (looking forward to your post Keith :ok), Fonzie, he really is you know, AA Hall and Eyesallin, my fellow Red Acer GazBlades, Heniek at last, Football-Tipper, RIVRD, SpannerJ, GeordiGaz. Also another mention for morlspin, who I think probably cashed the most of everyone, coming 2nd in the STT challenge, winning 2 STTs on the way, 2nd in the forum challenge and the PL game. :clap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
