Julian Thew.

Yes.  But ifm got it first.  Who else would be good natured (or foolish?) enough to let me get their hair from the worst possible angle?  8)

Jules Adamson is OUT and a bit gutted... his Sixes called (with two others) a preflop raise made by Aces - he hit the set AND got his whole 7k in - only for an Ace to pop out on the turn.  "There goes five grand..."

Elsewhere, Mike Magee takes a big hit on an odd sort of hand against Ivar Rivenaes (anyone know this gentleman?  He has impressive glasses, pic coming).

Mike raised to 700 preflop, getting Ivar and Marc as callers.  Flop 6d 5h Qh.   Marc checked, Mike bet 2,500, Ivar called and Mr. Cool got out of the way.
Turn:  3c  Mike bets a big 6,000 and gets instacalled.
River:  3d  Now Mike checks and Ivar moves in for 6,200 - eventually Mike calls.  So what do they have?
Well, Ivar shows Qc Kc.  And Mike mucks, so I guess we'll never know for sure...

Jacks and he puts Ivar on a flush draw????

So here they are again, the chip counts at the start of Level 4...

Hi all blondites

Enjoying the coverage from Las Vegas

Just watched Antonius win 120k in 20 minutes heads up online. Hes out with girlfriend and im on his laptop hoping a little of the genius rubs off.Its baking hot here and the Bellagio and Rio are filling up. Torren Nichols is in the cash game and the queue is long. Spotted ex Rangers star Colin Hendry playing roulette. Nice guy , had a chat with him. Seen Victor Ramdin, Paul Darden, Chris Ferguson, Gavin Smith amongst others as the players descend on here for WSOP. Rumour has it Dave Shallow is coming to play. Can you tell Ryan Fronda 'greetings from Bulgaria' and ask Iwan Jones 'what are my options.'?

Here's Keir Fitzgibbon, relaxing in the temporary space which has appeared on either side of him due to the recent elimination surge.  Tikay has the latest...

Thewy is toast.

He had top 2 pair on an A-J-5 flop, but Roman had a set of 5's......

Will do... by the way, you're in Las Vegas, and the most fun thing you've found to do is play online on someone else's laptop?  I recommend the New York New York rollercoaster, perhaps followed by steak... they have this giant fridge there all full of steak - I am going to look for a picture of me in front of it (totally off topic, but amuses me greatly)...

I'm quite partial to a resized Jen steak :)

Back on topic, and we have Roberto Romanello, whom Dina rather thinks looks like Negreanu (her favourite poker player) 

[attachment deleted by admin]

And Dina herself, next to Mark Teltscher.  And in the background you can still see Julian, who's now been replaced with Scott Fischman.  Not a particularly desirable seat, to be honest.  Scott's, not Mark's.

And look, what seamless linking going on here - Scott Fischman.  Or what can be seen of him beneath hat.

[attachment deleted by admin]

Er....Hat!  Look who else is wearing a hat (and this, by the way, is the answer to the earlier Dave's Neighbour Quiz) - Michael Greco.  And I tried to get a good intense staring picture of El Blondie, but managed to get that split second blinking moment.  What a pro.

How many left? What time do they finish tonight?

27 players left, intention is to play until the end of this level (half an hour), or the very unlikely event of there only remaining 9 players before that time should arrive.

Here were lined up Julian Gardner, Online qualifier (and large stack owner) Ryan Fronda, and Osman Mustanoglu.  Left to right.  But they broke another table and now they're all intermingled differently.  Will get full counts when they finish for the day.

Last hand of the night, and Dave tries to take out permashortstack Bob Ballou with what looked like 6-high, while Bob's AJ off kept him in the tournament overnight.

While they count up the remaining players' chips, we'll look for confirmation that tomorrow's play will commence at 4pm...

Dave's hand was actually 7-4. Suited.

Right, I'm off to bed. Got to go to a wedding tomorrow, so won't be around much. I'll take my lappie though, just in case.

Good job guys, have a safe journey.

Cheers for the norkage pic jen, No prompt required, I'm  shocked that tikay has not posted pics of Dinah before now.

Guys, Jen is midway through inputting the Overnight Chip Counts & we have been asked to leave the building immediately - the Fire Alarm has gone off!

Jen is hiding in the corner - we may get away with it.
