booommmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

incred rail, come on Mid you got this!

Middleton Doubles Through Berkey

Level 28: 25,000-50,000, 5,000 ante

Matthew Berkey moved all in from early position and action folded all the way around to Thomas Middleton in the big blind. Middleton called putting his short stack at risk with {A-Diamonds} {9-Spades}. Berkey held {A-Clubs} {Q-Hearts} and the flop came {J-Clubs} {9-Clubs} {3-Diamonds} {3-Hearts} {2-Spades}.

Middleton paired his nine on the flop and his rail went nuts. He doubled up to 1.7 million and Berkey slipped below 1 million.

I wonder if the railers wear Union Jack hankies on their heads ?

Seems like this update is probably slightly off. Can't imagine the guy just open shoved like 36bbs

wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinnnnn pls

A very nice gentleman wearing a Harrahs badge displaying the name "Shawn" just walked over to the constantly screaming cheerleaders of Thomas Middleton and asked for their attention. He explained that there are other tournaments running in the room right now, and he asked them to be a bit more courteous of the others.

Good try, Shawn, but we'd be surprised if that polite talking-to lowers the decibel level for more than three minutes.

utg raised, sb peeled middy shipped and got snapped by utg

Guess I must be a msery guts but the rail is like the worst excesses of a student night clearing out at 3am from the Student Union bar.

agreed, but the **** and booze flow freely and everyone gets a bit excited.....

lol, redic rail. Louder than some footie matches

Rail is incred. Like the yanks chant "let them stay" " let them stay"

Greatest. Rail. Ever.

We've been trying to find a way to describe the atmosphere in here right now, but it's almost beyond words. Suffice it to say that there's essentially constant yelling from the British fans, covering the range of topics from Tim Henman to "Port-a-Lieus" to the local tourist bar, Stoney's. It's mostly nonsense, and they've begun to press in along the rails as the hands go on and the beverages continue to flow. Just now, one of them (Matt Perrins) spilled an entire beer over the ropes and onto the stage of the secondary featured table. Security is having a word with the gentlemen right now.

This party might be coming to an end as security begins to encircle the group.

Or maybe not. From across the rail, the Americans are now shouting, "Let them stay! Let them stay!"

Even the big man Dennis walked over to talk to the group. He couldn't get a word in as everyone began screaming, "Dennis, give us a wave. Dennis, Dennis, give us a wave!" They spilled beer on his shoes, but he just laughed and asked them one more time to behave themselves.

If we had one word to describe the scene, we'd go with "chaos". If we had two, we'd take "utter chaos". A pair of security guards have just escorted Perrins away from the table, and they had to deal with a barrage of full-throated chants and name calling as they tried to sort out the situation.

SHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOEEEEEEEEEEEEEE BOOOOMMMMMMBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB

HAHAHA

The Brits are now downing beers -- that they poured in their shoes. They chant "Shoe bomb, shoe bomb, shoe bomb!" and then they chug. We've seen one individual chug three beers out of his shoe -- and then put it back on.

3 barrel hero

In what has to be the biggest pot of the tournament Thomas Middleton made it 200,000 to go from the small blind. Thomas Miller called from the big blind and they went to the flop of {J-Clubs} {J-Diamonds} {K-Spades}. Middleton bet out 250,000 and Miller didn't waste much time calling.

The turn came {A-Clubs} and after a moment of thought Middleton pushed out 550,000. Miller sat for a moment and slid out chips to call. The river brought the {5-Clubs} and Middleton moved all in for a little over 2,000,000. Miller went deep into the tank and sat motionless. With a 4,000,000 pot on the line Miller didn't make a decision for a few minutes.

Miller finally slid his cards to the dealer and the British rail went nuts.

big CL @ close of play

wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

What time tomorrow? Did I hear the TD say 2.30pm Vegas (10.30pm uk)?

We've reached the requisite ten-level mark, and the chips have been bagged up for one more overnight soak.

Once again, we're going to spare a lot of words here; our ears are ringing from the commotion we've just witnessed over the last four hours or so.

From our starting field of 1,734, just five players remain in the hunt for the bracelet. One of them, Thomas Middleton, was the one responsible for most of the noise tonight as his cheering section of countrymen were well lubricated with alcohol and very much a part of the battle being played out before them. Beers were imbibed from shoes -- yep, true story -- spilled onto the floor, and poured two-by-two down the throats of all in attendance as the dull roar rose to a deafening thunder of chanting by night's end.

And there's reason to cheer. Middleton is atop the pack heading into the final day, but the bracelet can not be won by his fans on the rail tomorrow. He'll have to deal with another Thomas on his left, Thomas Miller who held the chip lead for most of the day until a slide late in the evening. Also still in the hunt for his first bracelet is former APPT champion Eddy Sabat, and the two wild cards, Mikhail Lakhitov of Russia and Hassan Babajane from Boston.

The five of them will be back inside the Amazon Room Friday afternoon at 3:00 to finish this thing out. Here's how they'll stack up when play recommences:

Player   Chips
Thomas Middleton   4,030,000
Mikhail Lakhitov   2,705,000
Hassan Babajane   2,365,000
Eddy Sabat   2,030,000
Thomas Miller   1,885,000

That's all we have for tonight, and our eardrums need some time to recover.

I just love middy and that's all I have to say.

WIN IT ALL MIDDYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

blimey! the rail was loud :) watching this morning in bed and 2 year old was screaming at screen midddddy. lol

Wonder what he had in that big pot?

glglglglglgl

goooooooooooooooo Middy!

Its my missus Bday today and all i want to do is watch this tonight!! Gonna take some negotiation skill to pull this one off.

Gogogogogogogo Middy

birthday meal 7pm, shed loads of vino for mrs (offer to drive as it's her birthday), home and watch her conk out....simples

Missus is part Geordie, can drink like anything. I would have to get a half day and have her start drinking by 12 for that plan to work! will try pick up some rohypnol on the way back. Then she can have a nice long sleep.

Best of British Tom TID. Look forward to tuning into the final antics tonight!

Just got back from the Rio.

Really don't understand how people don't like the railing. It was the absolute dogs bits tonight. It wasn't just the brits railing, Jason Mercier and his mates were railing his horse, and there was a group of 10 guys railing another player. Plenty of banter between all three groups.

Tomorrow is going to be even better, two rails in the Rio tomorrow, It might just be better than tonight.

that was fun, its a shoeboat btw

great support by you and the lads. after middy has steam rollered his table you must get on "he's a baby" please

The British rail sounds absolutely amazing. Hope i can get involved in one when i'm there.

Really hope Tom gets the job done. Best of Luck.

Brits fcking own, dont we

Sorry if it's already on here, what time can we watch the live streaming from? Thanks

glglglglglgl

can we suggests some chants for the rail?

Incedible.

Good luck Sir, TID with the MOF.

to the tune of "he scores goals, paul scholes"

He hits holes, holes, he hits holes.
He hits holes, holes, he hits holes,
He hits holes holes, he hits holes,
ooooohhhhhhh Middy, he hits holes


also - i dont know what it is - but does super mario have a theme tune?

what about if he CR's some clown -

To the tune of don't look back in anger -

And so middy back raised,
And left that clown in a daze,
add some more lines....

LDO.
