Thanks for the support guys.. Final analysis..196 started finished in 7th place..When i got to the final table with 173k i was second in chips but the blinds were 10k/20k with a 1k ante. So there was not much room for much play.
Went completely card dead and despite a couple of plays just couldn't hit a hand. So cash was £30 plus a ticket to the national final in March where there another 10 tickets to Vegas, so the dream is still alive..
