Yes Jeff it was a great and long weekend of poker. You have thanked everyone concerned but of course a big thanks also goes to yourself.We at Big D's poker have been lucky enuf to meet some great people and good poker players.And I am very confident to say that Jeff would be one of the best if not No.1 poker player I have seen in Brissy.Because of the love of the game he has always put in alot of time to promote poker and our well run game and great venue where we hold Big D's poker games.So thanks again to all involved in making this weekend very successfull and enjoyable. I am sure we will be running more events like this and hope that the knew players we got up there will be happy to return to play on a Friday night.There will also be photo's to go up of the weekend soon.CHEERS

Oh man, if Michael Allen is winning the big ones, it must have been a SOFT tourney :PSorry I wasn't there - sorry in more ways than one...I could have used that $2500!yoyo

[Jon De Guzman]

Yoyo,Ohhh, are you calling as SOFT are you.Hope you can make it to the next tourney so we can test your theory!Jon

[yoyo]

That's correct Jon - I knew Dwambo and Jeff were soft players but I had no idea how soft the field was until I saw Allen won the thing! :PI will try and make it to the next big one.yoyo
