Since Jonathan Raab isn't sending a full chip counts until the dinner break, here are a handful from my last trip down to the cardroom. I'll try to grab a few each time.
Chris
Moorman
-- 8,200
Praz
Bansi
-- 25,500
Ed
Arees
-- 800
Simon Wickenden -- 18,225
Jeff
Kimber
-- 3,150
Fari
Badimansour
-- 22,550
Carlo
Citrone
-- 8,175
JJ Hazan -- 14,050
Vicky
Coren
-- 8,050
Liam Boland -- 10,650
Feminist
Russell
Cawley
is down, but not quite out, with just 2.5k, his phallic twin towers coming tumbling down when a flopped flush draw with top pair ran into an unmoving overpair. "I hit a straight draw on the Turn to give me even more outs, so couldn't get away."
I'm afraid Robert Boon is pushing up the poker daisies, his Kings running into the Aces of
Nick
Goodall
who has now jumped up to 16,975 as a result.

Those requests...
Barbara Gibson - 7k
Woody Deck is missing, presumed OUT. In his former seat is Mr Lloyd Rees, currently on around 7.4k.
Chili, eating probably something with chili in it - 8k, and stir-fry
Rob Taylor - 9k

Suzanne Pyefinch was just heard lamenting her bad luck in the smoking arena of the casino.
Holding 6-6 she saw a flop of Q-5-6 with another player and the chips all flew into the middle, huddling together like cold little sparrows seeking warmth, unsurprisingly as her opponent held Q-5 for 2 pair.
Suzanne's set was miles ahead of matey's 2 pair but a 2 outer Q on the turn spelled big trouble for Suzanne and she missed her now required 1 outer for quads on the river.
She immediately abandoned the table fuming, both metaphorically and literally as she lit a cigarette up outside to quell her frustration at the bad beat. "He had two outs and hit...that's poker!" she told me, feigning indifference whilst clearly as mad as a bear who has caught a small girl eating his porridge.
She still has 2k remaining though and may be able to find a way back into contention. ..good luck.
Here she is enjoying a moment of levity amongst all the angst...
Vincent Mather is a recent casualty...
Chris Moorman, despite his dazzling hoody, is not dazzling with his chip accumulation skills today and is down to 6k or so (Don't make me open photoschop and get the donkeys ears out Chris...)
Next to Chris on this table, Praz Bansi has increased his stack efficiently, no sitting on a very healthy 22 or 23k "He's so lucky!" bemoaned Chris. Praz just smiled quietly.
Boy in red alert, Warren Woodridge is doing well on 17k and is keeping his table awake with an endless stream of banter.
Footballer alert, Tony Cascarino was looking concentrated and focused with circa 10k in his stack.

Also, contrary to what Snoops said, Ariston IS out. I was heartlessly taking terrible photos of him and actually didn't realise he was all in. Even when he said, "Well at least you're going to get my exit hand" I didn't quite twig for a moment... Anyway, he shoved an
flop with an up-and-down and an as-it-turned-out useless overcard - his
up against Alan Armitage's
.
Turn -
River -
And he's gone.
A couple of hands later Alan found himself moving in on a Jack-high flop to a reraise from Johnathon Martin, who dwelled for ages before passing. Alan showed pocket Jacks; Johnathon says he had an underpair to the Jack - a lucky escape there. Alan's on around 20k now. He's buying my CD too.

LittlemissC called me over as I wandered by. She was looking miserable and unhappy.
"What's up Fran?" I asked, offering a sympathetic ear, whilst also mentally noting her stack had taken a hit...
"Just lost a big pot with Jacks. I raised it up preflop and got one caller. The flop came Q72 and I bet out, receiving a call, which I thought was a bit weak, so on the blank turn I bet out again...but got called again! Argh! Anyway the river was a 2, i checked and he [she indicates someone in a flatcap who I think is Keir Fitzgibbon] bet 9k, setting me allin...I passed
"
She looked glum but still had around 4 or 5k i think so can still claw her way back into things potentially.

At the dinner break, Fran Creed was back up to 9.2k.
-----------
"Sick!" exclaims Hugh Kirton as he reveals Pocket Sixes on a
board only to be greeted by Jonathan Baylis'
. "Nothing you can do," adds a table mate. Baylis up to 12,500, Kirton down to 3,450.
-----------
Many thanks to our ringside reporter, Dena, for the following report.
Chris Rhodes was a pre-dinner break casualty, all-in with A-K vs. J-J, rollercoaster 7-K-A-J-5 board.

Alan Armitage has just sealed the deal and bought one of my CDs. What a lovely man. He's on 22k at the moment.
There is a board on his table that reads
and a gentleman I believe is Robert Boon moves all in. "Oh, I folded K-T," whispers Alan to me. "After the flop." Rob Taylor is considering the call, but doesn't make it in the end. Mr Probably Boon (couldn't see his card, sorry) shows

Snoops wrestled the camera back out of my greasy paws (ohh, those dirty hamburgers) so I'm afraid you'll have to wait for the photo, but Chris Rhodes has 14.5k currently. His card was obscured by his MP3 player. "Excuse me, are you Chris Rhodes?" "WHAT?" Removal of massive headphones follows. Still for some reason at top volume: "WHAT?" He is Chris Rhodes. (Possibly greasy) photo coming from beagle.
Meanwhile, Micheal Bolger is OUT (spotted in bar), as is Alex Blackwood (exit card handed to me by Bluesquare blogger Pete).
Rob Taylor has 5.5k.

Liam Flood has moved to Paul King's table, where Paul makes it 1k utg. Says Liam, "You have a lot of chips." Says Paul, "I've been very lucky." Liam makes it 3.5k, and Paul folds
up. Continued good-natured banter, I'm sure you know the sort.

Meanwhile a double-up for Andrew Booth, who shoves for his remaining 1650 and gets himself called by Joh Burberry, who as it turns out is ahead with

.
But oh the flop! It is
and Booth is now up to the heady heights of around 4k.

Double-up also for an incredibly sleepy-looking, and a before-the-hand-incredibly-short-stacked Jerome Bradpiece.
A flop, 5-way, that flop being
, is checked around.
Jerome bets 1k on the
turn; only Stuart Nash calls.
Jerome now has only 2950 behind, and he sticks it all in on the
river. Stuart calls.
Jerome shows no signs of emotion and only the barest signs of wakefulness as he flips
for the nut flush. "Yup," says Nash.

Could you find Chris Rhodes please and send a picture. He's a dark horse for the final table and looks remarkably like
Gus
Hansen
.
Think I found your man...shaved head, large earphones, bright shades with some sort of sparkly diamond looking things embedded in the sides.
Sound familiar? He's on 12.5k at the moment.
Snoopy has the camera so no photo yet, although I'm sure we can sort one out pretty soon...
EDIT: In the course of finishing this post, Snoopy has returned with a picture of Chris
Chris Moorman doubled up just before the dinner break. "I' doubled up to 9.5k..." he told me, "so you can tell I'm doing well!" An AA v TT coup doubled up Chris, and fresh back from the dinner break, Chris was to face a big decision.
There was a raise from UTG+1 to 900 from Rob Garfield, which Lam Trinh had re-raised another 3k-3.5k, leaving only about 3k back...
Chris was sat in the small blind and took a while, shaking his head and examining Lam before ultimately passing reluctantly...
Rob Garfield FLAT CALLED the raise. The flop came A-T-7
Rob checked, Lam moved in and Rob called. Lam shook his head and showed Q-Q, probably expecting Rob to show up with some kind of Ace, but instead Rob had T-T and had checked his set on the flop.
Lam was being led to the slaughter, but a moist juicy Q on the turn resulted in an ecstatic and relieved fist pump from Lam and a sit back down again, before a meaningless 7 filled both players up on the river, but didn't change the direction the pot was travelling in. Lam scooped the pot for a welcome double up, propelling him to 13 or 14k or so. Rob looked relatively calm and unfazed.
Moorman, incidentally, passed A-K in that coup and was no doubt happy to have avoided the carnage...
Solitary random chip count...
Steve Jelinek has 9 or 10k at the moment.
