Yeah I'd probably be up for that.

Think you'd have to take the Vegas package out of the equation, unless thats to play a defined tournament where you can win more?

EDIT - Oh wow, the Vegas package contains entry to the WSOP Colossus. I will swap 5% if it includes any potential cash in that.

What is the entirety of the contents of this Vegas package? I'm sorry I haven't had much of chance to look into it yet.

That is pretty good. Including any winnings from the Colossus is fine with me. Jack up for it?

Just seen all this. I've reserved my entry to the event and I'm definitely up for 5% in each other. Anybody else up for it? Mini E? DO IT.

Catching up with this year's ME (first time I have done in about 4/5 years :o ) and I'm definitely preferring the fact they start on Day 4. I didn't think I would but it works really well, would like to see maybe an episode of what's happened on the first 3 days but it's still pretty good. Think Kassouf is annoying but he's not breaking any rules, right? It's not like the players have to answer him, although I guess it can be difficult to block it out. I wouldn't say it's not in the spirit of the game, he's just using speech play - a valid tactic - to his advantage.

I really should be spending that weekend with my girlfriend - it'll be our first evening together for 8 weeks :lol: :lol: - If she ends up having plans, I'll probably come down and play.

You have to watch the HU - Qui was an absolute boss, he owned Vayo over and over and over again. Then, just when you thought it wasn't possible, he owned him even HARDER.

I watched a lot of it. Vayo just never bluffed and he badly needed to make up for his lack of cards.

Just catching up on what I missed and

That set under set for Josephy is pretty rough. I'd probably want the ground to open up and swallow me if I had to take that at the ME FT of all places.
