Savage Tournaments! Last PartyPoker qualifier busts out of WPT in 13th

David McGrail, a 24-year-old surveyor from Edinburgh had the deepest run in the WPT Celebrity Invitational at the Commerce Casino in LA. Ace eight against his kings with a straight on the river was enough to send him on his bike. Thank god his friend wasn’t bike riding as he was wearing a kilt.

Last saw these Scots around midnight when I left them in the corporate hospitality refreshment area at the Doubletree, known as the bar…

Some of you will have noticed that Matt Savage and his team send out tonnes of emails each day on the event  but the Commerce chief took things to a new level when we asked how David was doing.

MATT – HOW IS DAVID DOING? Picture message reply…

“Looks pretty short to me. Heard Ricki Lake was the chip leader but she just donked it all off”

“Oh no – he must be gone then…”

Is Matt Savage taking live reporting to the next level?

Congratulations to pro Thor Hansen on making the final table – it was that invite that you got to our player party that did it wasnt it Thor?
