A big kafuffle around one of the central tables had me racing over like Linford Christie being launched out of a cannon.

Surely that would be the same speed as anyone being launched out of a cannon?  Shall we experiment?  I vote you go first.

Is this the chap? He's currently on 25,725, which is 4k above average.

Update on Richard "Daddymac" Sinclair if possible please. TIA.

I'm afraid his seat is now empty.

[snoopy1239]

are julian and dave colclough still in???

I'm afraid I scoured the room for Dave but couldn't find him. I even asked Smithers on the rail, but still no joy.

Roland de Wolfe has also bitten the dust.

Chip counts!

Isabelle Mercier - somehow seems to have tripled up to 9k
Barry Greenstein - 8k
Thomas Fougeron - 30k
Gino Alacqua - 31k
Anton Allemann - 26k
Johnny Lodden - around about 70k
Huuuuuumberto - 22k
Christian Grundtvig - 8k
Stephen Pearce - 9k now, after dropping a few chips calling a stripy Mateyboy's preflop raise to 1100 but then folding on the 8-2-6, two-hearts flop - one benefit of this, for me at least, is that Mr Pearce tidies up his previously dirty stack to work out whether he is going to call or not
Noah Boeken - 21k and complaining because the curtains have been closed again; he is told that opening them once again is more complicated than pressing a button, as they have a dedicated curtain overseer who must be present to ensure that the opening of the curtains goes smoothly



JANWATCH

Jan Heitmann - down to 22k
Jan Sjavik - 10k


Patrik Antonius - 39k
Rolf Slotboom - 16k
Ross Boatman - 25k
Woody Deck - 70k - "I'm getting raped. Scandies like to win coinflips." But you have so many chips, Woody! "I'm still steaming about an inconsequential hand an hour ago."
Maria Maceiras - 27k
Greg Raymer - around 30k, mainly in small denominations, sigh
Sorel Mizzi - 9.5k
Trond's empty seat - 32k - actually, as I wrote that he came back, flipped his chair around, and commenced backwards-chair-sitting, because he's cool
Adrian Koy - 21k
George Danzer - 13k
Barny Boatman and Annette Obrestad - OUT and playing a pricey-looking sit n go
Patrik Andersson - as I'm counting his chips, he moves all in to a huge bet from the gent to his right on a board - the other guy insta-calls, and his is crushing Patrik's . The on the river and he's OUT.

Continue this nonsense, and you and I are going to come to blows, my feline friend.

The Goulds are still plugging away, both still on the same table. Peter has 7,300, Josh 17,450. "Have you not got rid of him yet," I ask Pete. "I've been trying for nineteen years," he replies.

Hows Roy Brindley getting on?

Is he event there this week?

I'm so over him btw, just erm, wondering

George Danzer is OUT the door.  His final hand – the .  According to neighbour Peter Roche, the beginning of the hand was a little odd, with George running back to the table just in the nick of time to be allowed to play his hand.  Nearly-a-ruling number One.

Then, against a caller we reckon is Morten Lokken (ty Gary) he saw a flop of in position.  I saw it from the point where Lokken had bet out 1,525, and George threw in a confusing 2,500.  The dealer made this stand as a minimum-only raise (Nearly-a-ruling number Two).  George was re-raised all in sharpish and instacalled only to find Lokken holding the powerful for the flopped set.  The turn and the river housed him up with and a very disgruntled George immediately left the area.  A couple more seconds away from the table pre-hand and he’d have missed his AA and still be in it.  Life is so wonderfully cruel sometimes.

Newly unearthed Brit, Jeremy Wray, has just lost a 35k pot to Shawn Deeb, who looks nothing like his dad, Freddy. Pushing all-in for 10,225 on a an board, Shawn's body froze into a generic poker pose as Wray sized up his options. Believing that his opponent had an Ace or nothing, Wray made the call with Queens, but was dismayed to see his opponent turn over A-6. "I put one of you guys on an Ace," said Wray pointing to a couple of players who had ducked out early doors.

Here's Shawn looking devilishly pleased with himself.
