I have to say how unlucky Isabelle Mercier is. In Monte Carlo in the biggie she arrived at the table and someone hit runner runner flush to knock her out when she had a decent amount of chips. Then last night she arrived with a bundle of chips again. Toni Hakki raised to 3000 in early position and Isabelle reraised it to 9000 to play. Toni then went all in for about 40000 and Isabelle instantly called for about 40000 as well and flipped over AA. Hakki had JJ and it flopped J66. Isabelle looked gutted.

Good to see Keith doing well as well. I cant remember the last tournament I saw him at where he didnt build up a good chip stack.

that new rocky style of yours appears to be working ben,
good luck!

[Milkybarkid]

lol 

Well i did play like a rock until i decided i need to double through twice late on all in preflop with Qc6c and Jh9h. I hit a flush and then a straight.

Back to playing only QQ, KK and AA today!!

Nice one Ben, keep it going. How many runners and what is the payout ?

[Milkybarkid]

It was full... 170 runners. I was 3rd reserve and just made it in. They could have got over 200 runners.

Prize pool 127500

First is 60000.

Not sure how it breaks down after that.

Good Luck, & do the Rock Thing......

I will be there later.

Special wishes to The Camel too, & commiserations to Isabelle.

busted out after about 30 mins.. passed on the flop after i raised 1/4 of my chips with 88 .. big blind called and it came down 9T4 and he went all in...

Then one player raised in an obvious steal on the button and i moved all in with 44. He thought his JK may be good for some reason and called 

Flop JJA

Never mind... looking forward to Omaha on Thurs and the Main event on Sat
