I enjoyed it last year, up for it again although might try to sat in this time. Very flat pay structure but it was a lot of fun.

Amazing. :o

Regrettably (and I really do mean that), I won’t be attending the Goliath this year as I will be in the process of moving house, therefore I won’t be organising a meet up.

I’m going to be making a special effort to attend in 2015, mind.

I may try to organise a small GRSOP this year, depending on the interest.

If we get enough interest well organise it tonight. Transfer to my pokerstars account or something. That doesn't charge does it?

Bet Victor have some very good odds atm. Laid £25 at 33/1 on Ole Schemion to bink One Drop and got £25 of promo bets, divided between Vogelsang at 40/1 (£10), Quoss at 33/1 (£5), and Selbst at 33/1 (£10). Mike McDonald isn't confirmed atm, but you can get 66/1 on him.

Johannes Strassman's been found dead in a river :shock: The guy was only 29. Absolutely tragic. Was watching an EPT episode he final tabled the other day. Far too young an age. RIP

I'd also be up for the sweepstake.

Awful news about Strassman. Being found in a river sounds like murder or a tragic accident, poor guy.

Not enough for the sweepstake.

Instead I've stuck a tenner on Jay Farber, and a tenner on Hellmuth.

Farber 28s, and Hellmuth at 33s.

I know Hellmuth is no high-roller, but to put him as on of the outsiders of the actual pros is a bit odd...

EDIT - Now I'm sweating if they are even playing, only 24 in the photo shoot and they weren't there...

Yeah... Hellmuth was trying to sell 300k of action and Farber was never considering it.

No non-runners. :fp:

Hellmuth COULD turn up later but we'll see.

Stuck a new bet on Noah Schwartz instead. :fp:
