I might as well move here since this is where everything is happening &#8211; started off in August when I got here for the WPT London and before you know it, it&#8217;s October and I am still here. Tonight I covered the &#8216;Drive the Dream&#8217; promo.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The day started rough &#8211; getting up at 9 AM is not really my thing but I was snapping away with our 9 qualifiers who were super excited about playing the final table and, to be honest, I would be too if I was one of them &#8211; the first prize was the Aston Marton &#8211; full on James Bond thing.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">A short break and some London shopping and we all went from the Soho hotel ( FAB hotel, btw!) to the Mint Casino to start the Final Table. A little bit of champagne, another round of photos and we shuffled up &#8211; the rail was intense &#8211; almost all of the guys brought their girls so there was a lot of pressure on them  &#8211; every girl would love to be the new Bond girl, I am sure.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Unfortunately, not everyone gets the first prize, but with Party Poker everyone is a winner so every player got a prize.
