Julian Thew went for a pre-tournament curry with Matt Tyler before play started today. When I asked how he got up to 61,000 chips, "curry power" was the answer. He has been taking a lot of small-to-medium pots to double his stack and give himself a shot of following his recent GUKPT win with an EPT one.
Unfortunately, it has not worked so well for Matt as he has dropped to 4,900.
