A point for Steve in #59 has brought him level with Carl at the top on 87 points.

However, David Chiu is currently 9/16 in #60. If he gets to the final table, Barrie will take the lead for the first time.

Noooooooo....David Chiiiiiiiuuuuuuu

I would normally wish Mr Chiu the very best of luck, but it seems when I do this it turns into a BOK.. Very best of luck Mr Chiu x

Once you selected your team, make sure you select "place stake"?

Everything looks fine Steve...I can see your ten picks in the back office and on the leaderboards.

You may have gathered from Barrie"s anguish that his player let him down. I"d have thought he was a Chiu-in to make the FT if he had sat tight and let the others bust instead of trying to win the event before he has the five points secured. If you Chius that route, you get a big stack or you bust, which is hardly the right strategy in a points-based competition. Something for the player to Chiu over while he kicks his heels waiting for his next event.

Not much else happened since - just Day 1 of #62, which our Joe is playing.

Craig McCorkel, sixth overnight on 145k, has had a good first hour today, moving into the lead on 215k.

Deadman gets a point in Event 61.

Time to call a halt to this competition now & just award the title to whoever is winning now.

All Agreed?
