Everything has already been said but here it goes once more. Big thanks to TyK and efi for organizing this series and to SwC for sponsoring it. Congratulations to all of you who did well tonight and I sincerly hope there will be a next series.
Now I feel like I am giving speech as Oscar winner so time to change a tone a bit. Screw you guys I had bad cards today in our runner up tourney and now I am kicking it for a chance to win Big BTC ticket. That is the only one I missing in my collection. Now I just have to find the time to actually play Small and medium BTC.

GG all. I'm out. That was a very tight table to play and being card dead was terrible. It was really just swapping chips for the longest time and then out of nowhere a hand would happen.
Unfortunately I opened UTG, KQsuited and Betwrong jammed BB. Figured this was something they wanted protected definitely didn't think it would be Aces. Looks like pocketpairs in the blinds are the turning point. Wish it had been the same when I had AA in the BB, but that's how it goes sometyimes.

Im out as right after you
. The heck, Tyki nailed me out this time with his Flush. I wasnt expecting Flush especially not with an Ace kicker.. I got pocket Q on my hand and I was confident as hell that perhaps no one is going to call my raise. You know what, The thing with Flush is that it never works well for me. It is always hard for me to get a Flush and even when I got it, someone with better kicker always owned me 
Im putting my money on Tyki, go get them mate you deserve some chips for all your hardworks with the spreadsheet
the runner's up tourney finished pretty quickly. very solid play from @jayce who took 3rd.
How do you and obaming get in the runner's up tourney btw? Both of you were in the Grand Finale as well

@Iv4n came in heads up with a strong chip lead. we skirmished for a while but i never made too much of a dent. i 3-bet jammed KQo into him, ran into AKo of course. no suckouts today. gg dude!
things are going terribly in the other game---super card dead for the past hour straight. i should have been paying more attention and chosen some spots to steal but i've been on autopilot, i have a lot going on in the house right now..... let's see if i can't turn this around.

GG, everyone!
Pretty disastrous finale for me, my strategy was to get into big pots early and if possible double up ...well that didn't go as planned.
Lost twice vs. arallmuus on the river first A and high kicker vs. his two pairs A7 (7 on the river).
The second one, as you can see from the screenshot, pretty bad suckout.
At least i'll get to watch the CL final from the start.
GL to those who are still playing!

i'm in both games. sue me.
yup, some nasty coolers so far!
i have unfortunately gotten no action on my monsters today. i had AA twice but no callers preflop. still only hovering near the starting stack, but there's still plenty of time to make something happen......
Edit: Wow the finale has been pretty spicy so far, with Hhampuz getting nearly stacked by Betwrong QQ VS. JJ, and then I believe it's Pitkins flopped set of 777, rivering a boat 7's full of 10's only to lose to TikTokLyfe with their 10's full of Aces, improved from Top pair on the flop going runner runner for the win.
Still 8 left with Pitkins hanging in their.

Ready to go here and I got some Spanish tapas.
Good luck to all in their respective tournaments. I opted to just play the finale, and the battle is on. Globbo you and my wife like the same apple juice lol. Not going to record today unfortunately, I think it's just to much for the living room PC.

You should have participated in at least one of the 8 qualifiers in order to play losers' tournaments.
While to play Championship, you should have accumulated enough points in order to make to the top 9.
Both of the tonight tournaments are exclusive and not open for new participants.

You guys lost me with all this discussion regarding runner up tournament. No matter I received password via PM, registered and hope to see as much of you regulars as possible.
Looking forward to our poker evening and hopefully this will not be the last one

I'm probably the worst among regular players here but I'd love to join the next tourney(s). Yeah, hope this is not the last one. Good luck guys, and Mia san Mia
You will be welcome to join us.
I think several people are up for it again.
Maybe we could take turns to do some of the jobs, so its not all on 1 or 2 people.
I'm happy to help if there is something I can do.

Runners-Up Finale is now live, too - both games will run simultaneously. The Runners-Up Finale is password protected, I am going to share the password via PM later today.
Attention please: The Grand Finale will start at 6:59!
Attention please: The Grand Finale will start at 6:59!
I have now sent the Runners Up password to everybody - I originally also had in mind this one should be for Top 10+ but then again, now that finals will be running simultaneously... HF and GL everybody tonight!
I received the password, but I'm hesitant about registering, tbh.
If the Runners Up tournament was scheduled for the following day, or at least 3 hours later than the Grand Finale, it would be fair for those who got no prizes to try their luck in the Runners Up. But since they are running simultaneously, I think we, the participants of the Grand Finale, should probably not register.
Just my hung-over thoughts.
Maybe I'm missing something . August 23, 2020, 06:08:16 AM

I did feel the rule was restrictive and brought it up at the time. I'm good either way as it's likely to be the last one for a while. If we do carry on I'd like to see it be anyone who plays 2 matches or more.
Not sure I'll play both but see you guys tomorrow.
