The Day begins…
Good morning from an overcast Swaziland. Whilst the weather outside is deteriorating the temperature in the poker room is rising steadily. The players are in their seats and raring to go for what is the crunch day for most of the players. Around 80 players will be bitterly disappointed by tonight, some from bad beats, some from bad play and some will be victims of their cards…
What is certain though is that the day will be an interesting and exciting one. There are some big names in the top 20, players who have come close but stumbled at the last hurdle like Jay Sookoo and Jaime Vilela both of whom have been runners-up. Kramer, Martinovic and Rahme have won it all before and will be looking to add to their trophies whilst all of the other players will certainly not lie down and be victims.
