Mr. Wolf

Cheers Damo, I was really happy with the numbers but there were about 40 absentees (yourself included) who i was full sure would turn up. Hoping for over 100 in the next 1 to make a €10,000 + payout. The players liked the structure, nice price (max spend €120) and nice play in the blinds.
Talk to u soon buddy
p.s. hows daddy day care going?
