Many congrats Asa, a brilliant opening bid for Player of the Series !

[amcgrath1uk]

Thanks all.

It's fair to say I'm still in complete shock. Massive thanks to all for the messages I've received, in particular the rail from Adam initially, and then Tom who was there for both final tables. Massive congrats to Steve, Norbert and Glenn as well.

Suppose it makes me a target for the rest of the week!
