Nearly 1million on break. :-)

Confirmed, though I make it just a tad less.

I'm Updating on him next door, obv, so in the unlikely Event that you want to know the 2 hands that got him from 650,000 to just shy of a mill, just ask, & I'll Post the details here as well.

Yes please.

Teeks - any chance of a pic of Tomas Samol? An extravagant character known by all the 'Phuketeers'. I don't know his table though :S

The pic of Tomas.

IF I can trace his starting Table, & IF he has not moved, yes, I'll get it.

But IF I mistakenly ask some random bloke if he is a "Phuketeer" (& I have no idea how to pronounce that, Jordan Kaplan had to correct me the other day), & he gives me a smack in the chops, I'm so gonna give you a good hiding, is that clearly understood?

I'll Post those 2 hands shortly.....

The 2 hands that took Marc from 650,000 to around a million.......sorry, I don't know the bet sizes, or exactly how the action went, this is as related to me by Marc.

Marc has the actor/comedian/impressionist bloke Kevin Pollak on his Table. He is so tired of Marc's constant aggro pre-flop (Kevin is 2 seats behind Marc) that he has taken to just mucking his hands blind, without even looking at them.

But on this occasion, Marc opened, & Kevin CLEARLY intended to call. But he got his chips mixed up, & put too many in - the Dealer said it had to go as a raise.

Kevin tried to make out that he INTENDED to raise, but Marc felt he intended to call, so re-raised.

Kevin calls.
 
Marc bet every street, Kevin called every street.

The board run-out was....

K-9-6-3-3

After the River bet & call, Marc said "I have the King", & Kevin insta-mucked. Marc showed down K-4.

Marc felt Kevin had something like 10-10.

Shortly after, there was a pot that was 3 bet pre.

The board run-out was J-8-4-K-J.

I believe Marc bet pre, flop, & turn, & got called down the whole way, but had to check the river, which was checked back.

On the end, Marc thought he had lost, & resignedly/optimistically announced "A high".

Oppo now mucked his hand, so Marc had to show his A-2.

Marc felt Oppo must have had 9-10, or Q-10, & missed his draw.

8.30pm Vegas.

Keith Johnson is currently on the Main Feature Table, with all the ESPN cameras.

Marc Wright is OUT, he had K-9, the flop was K-9-x, Matey Boy had 9-9.

GOGOGO KEEF AND KEYS.

With their stable of donks I hope both have a big score

Big plus 1

Oppo now mucked his hand, so Marc had to show his A-2.

 

Advice for oppo:  Even if ace high is good here, make sure you see it before mucking.

Noticed Andrew Flaherty in the chip counts. Could this be either of the father or son team from Leeds that are good mates of Lawrence Gosney?

They are O'Flaherty but hendonmob shows no Flaherty
