Does Matt Tyler have the roundest head in poker ??   

Thats almost a perfect circle !!

I think David Smith is heaidng the field.

Im not having that Snoops, click the link mate ... his head aint as round as Matts.

Mr Richard Ashby, he of the fashionable lateness, is currently sharing a table with the also fashionable Marcel Luske, and taking his fashionable chips off of him too.

On a board of with an absolute bunch (the technical term) of chips already in the pot, Ashby bets 2500 and Luske folds, giving up the big ol' (also a technical term) pot to Ashby.

Sitting at their table is also an as yet unidentified but amusingly accented Mateyboy, who earlier in the day wandered into the press room shouting for Rosie, only to be met with some blank, buffet-glazed stares. Sure enough, as I approached the table, he looked up hopefully. "Rosie?" Nope, sorry. I almost feel bad. I might go back and pretend to be Rosie. Or send Floppy up there.

The table of Barcelona winner Sander Lyloff looks tough. As well as Marcel Luske and Richard Ashby being on this table, the EPT champ also has to contend with Phillip 'Clap Yours Hands Say' Yeh



And here is Jeff Lisandro, obviously he has a kids' party to do afterwards.

[Colchester Kev]

How about Jason Hackett from the recent London EPT.

He must get confused for the moon when it gets dark. Head and shoulders above Tyler, surely?

thats a good shout, but i feel he lacks the symmetrical spherical dimensions of Tyler



Blimey ... who has hacked my account, there are a couple of good words in that sentence

my favorite site for tourney coverage! You Blondes do such an awesome job!

Would you be so kind to keep an eye out for Daniel Stern, Mike McDonald  and Sorel Mizzi please?

Thanks so much!

We are currently on a short ten minute break and the blinds will be be 75/150 and then we'll be on it.

[NoflopsHomer]

In fact, I have the remnants of a Dani Stern hand from just before the break. It looked to be blind on blind but I'm not sure what the betting was preflop or post flop, but I saw him check the river of a board and saw the scrabbletastically named Krzysztof Czerwinski make an almost pot-sized bet of 3.6k through shaking hands. Stern ended up passing what would've cost pratically all his stack, so I think he roughly had about 4k left.

[danafish]

Chip updates - Chris Bush -- 8k and change
Michael Martin -- 4.25k
Julian Thew -- 5k
Matt Tyler -- 13k - "It's an easy table. Me and Barny are having a bit of a craic. The rest of them are miserable bastards. Quote me on that."
Barry Greenstein -- 20k+ big stack

258 players remain. I believe Vanessa Rousso is among the no-longer-playing contingent.

[danafish]

Here are some nice photos of Richard Ashby, Marcel Luske and a dealer's arm, Barry Greenstein, the lovely Katja Thater, our friend the Cat Lady's male counterpart Voitto Rintala, and Nicolas Levi's impressive sausage ("You're not the first person to ask to take a photo of my sausage"). As you can see I am using precious camera space constructively.

Sorrel Mizzi is OUT.

He was all-in on a board but was likely to be to be drawing very thin against Michael Durrer's . Mizzi simply mucked as the turn and river came and . Hevad 'Rain' Khan told me he thought Mizzi probably had Jacks as he would've have flipped a set over as he still had outs.

Here is the Canadian about 2 minutes pre knockout.




Elsewhere Dani Stern almost had a double through but missed his freeroll with vs the of Mark Bartlog on a board when the river came an anti-climatic .



Mike McDonald just knocked Richard Toth with Ace King against Ace Queen.



It's funny but all these things actually happened as I go to their respective tables. I'm like a lightning rod for action I guess.

[NoflopsHomer]

Travis Bickle Ramzi Jelassi raises to 400 and gets 3 callers, including big blind Dave Colclough. The flop is checked all the way around, before Ramzi takes a 1.1k stab on the turn to take the pot down and shows the drawtastic .

[The_nun]

They all look so darn young..
