Greetings from Blighty

Today's event is, of course, the opening £1,500 no limit hold'em freezeout, and already the players are gushing through the doors in their droves. I'm no Mystic Meg, but I would imagine that this one will be a sell-out with alternates biting at the bit to get their piece of the action.
There is a real eclecticism of players surfacing, ranging from superstar Daniel Negreanu, to local boys Peter Wigglesworth and Graham Pound, to a young Scandinavian who was sharing his tale of woe outside in struggling to wire across €50,000. Tough times!
Everything looks superbly organized here with a spacious playing area, multiple plasma screens, and dealers already seated at tables, braced and raring to go. As such, I would predict a relatively prompt start. As my dear mother would say, hold onto your hollyhox. (I still have no idea what she was waffling on about.)
