David is stunned he has thrown this away on a bluff

Only because I do that all the time. Cheers to Apat and all competitors, excellent tournament on all counts (even the arctic air conditioning helped me focus, I"m sure). Derek played flawlessly at the final table and deserved to win.

Well done to all who made day two and what a fantastic debut from our winner.

This is a very special final table. t pot  on forgeA railbird informs me that seats 3,5 and 6 are wearing white socks

Standards are slipping, unless its a Michael Jackson tribute of course. I personally would never wear white socks, the prospect that I may subsequently be persuaded to do exercise makes me quite fearful. I will stick with Marks and Spencer black socks please.

Mrs p ,noticed this.(as women do)So from now o on.n forget pot odds etc.Just ordered 20 pairs of white socks ,will final table from now

Niven all in

Geo Dickson calls

Niven A5

Geo K4

flop 3 5 5 Niven doubles up

LOL

This sounds worse than it was. Mr Niven was all in for 5k on my BB of 8k so I had 3k returned and a free hand.

A fantastic couple of days as is the norm for Apat weekends.

Thanks to all wellwishers. Unfortunately I was absolutely card dead once we hit the FT. Derek played brilliantly and a much deserved win.

As always a big thanks to Des and Duffy jnr, Tighty and Leigh (10-6 indeed pfft) hindered assisted by Kinboshi.

Off to replace the famous pink jumper after it was the victim of the now infamous Gala pies.

Many thanks again to all and look forward to meeting up again soonest.
