Thanks Guys - I"ve no complaints - my JJ ran into KK on Day 1 towards the end of the day with us both all in Pre-flop and I spiked a J on the river - so today when my JJ was up against 99 all in pre-flop I couldn"t really complain when he spiked a 9 on the river - that sent me from 365k in about 8th position down to 135k instead of going to about 600k and with blinds at 6k/12k/1k the rest is history.
What was very disappointing was the number of runners - 191 in the end I think (including re-entries) - really bad luck on Ciaran and his Boylesports Poker guys with the timing of this up against GPS Southend (£440?), UKIPT at Hippodrome (£250?), Vic putting on an "anniversary event"? and I believe DTD dropping their normal £500 deepstack event to £250 - all that over this weekend, as you can see, greatly affected attendance at around the £250 buy-in level (they even had to cancel (some) side events due to lack of runners).
On departing I was advised they expect to conclude tonight and NOT have final table tomorrow (due to low numbers I expect and it being ahead of schedule).
