We can't do shoe bombs on here, or a real rail (which should be a fun one if they allow it) but we can do a far away virtual rail for tonight's final....


Good luck Chris

;goodluck;

Funking

Whats the over/under on how many British players aged under 30 get banned from railing tomorrow?

Go on the Captain!

Moorman is an absolute hero so has helped the career of dozens of players and deserves every success he gets, gonna use my railing one time for this years wsop on this

Don't know him personally but good luck anyway

Gl Moomin

Such a boss. C'mon moor!

Best of British in more ways than one!

C'mon fella get it done

GLGL

You sleep!??! Well I never...

Oh, Good luck Mr Moorman

Go on captain

Justice will be done if Chris wins this.  I've railed his Dad to a Live victory (GUKPT Manchester, I think) but never Chris.

Good luck today Chris, & I echo Max Dubai's words precisely.

^

come on moor.

GLGLGL.

think i have him in my team so i'm rooting for him too

oh yeah, he's british so a bit of that as well

Seems like the kind of thing I'm going to want to rail.

Diary duly blocked out.

whens restart? also will it be streamed?

Final table being streamed on wsop.com on a 30minute delay.

Players now on a short break (10 mins). Little by way of Moorman-related substance thus far.

Two players in t-shirts today. Four in hoodies. One in a zip up jumper sans-hood. One (the most senior by way of years) in a smart jacket and freshly polished shoes.

And then there is the Brit.  Mr Moorman is looking resplendant in an (can't be sure of exact colour in the purple light) oatmeal grey fitted jacket, complete with brown elbow patches. He looks like the geography teacher all the girls fell in love with at school.

The announcement of the break by the TD was met with a cry of "Mister GQ! GQ Man of the Year, Chris Moorman!" from a rail birdsquid.

About to restart. Won't post any hands or details in case there are watchers from afar on the stream.

GL Mr Moonman

TID

feel the rail is going too get messy if he does

Old Boy runs golden

Some very...deliberate...play on display. Quite understandable given the money and prestige involved. Each pot won is rewarded with a cheer/holler/whoop/"get in the hole, you the man, Tiger" (OK not that last one, but you get the picture) from a different corner of the rail.

The corner of this foreign field that shall be forever England is growing in population. Currently relaxed, like the early stages of an ODI at Lord's. Likely, given the bottled beverages on display, to increase gradually in volume and orchestration as the day progresses.

Mood is very much one of anticipation.

oioiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

Lol. Yeah that's how you win MTTs :D

Moorman's rail now a good 30 in number. A who's who of UK poker here in support. (Should point out I'm not in that! Am railing the rail from the other side of the table)

As a player exits in seventh, he downs his celebratory beer in a single attempt, much to the delight of Messrs Grafton & co, who cheer him every swig of the way, releasing a cacophony of noise as the final drop is dispatched.

That player was not Mr Moorman. Two jackets and four hoodies remain.

Any shoe-bombs yet Tal?

Tal when I next come over would you be so kind as to introduce yourself to me :)

Will be at least that kind.

What table are you at?

I'm in a purple polo shirt btw

Ok whats happening?

big gap, what's up?  Bracelet yet ?

Out 6-7 th irrc

Eventual second place finisher Paul Lieu, had a tough time with seven remaining, as he was at the bottom of the chips counts, before two crucial hands brought him back to life. In the first, he committed the last of his chips with 6-6 against Chris Moorman's A-Q on a Ace high . He was able to spike the 6 on the turn to double back up. Shortly after, he used his new earned wealth, to eliminated Adam Stone from the final table.

Chris Moorman started the day as one of the lowest chip stacks, and was able to make it to the final five, before the inform Lieu was on a mission to eliminate another player on his quest for victory, The remaining five players limped into the pot, and saw the flop come J-10-8 , before Moorman moved all and was called by Lieu. Moorman had 8-5 and was up against Lieu's 10-8. He wasn't able to improve with his bottom pair, as we were left with just four.

Most heart and most passion of any player on the circuit.

Sorry for lack of Tightyesque updates. I lost WiFi and then I lost battery.

Excellent atmosphere. Top skippering by The Squid.

Watched the early stuff last night and was pretty surprised to see lieu heads up, he looked tilted from the start. Must have got lucky later on

unlucky Chris, really wanted him to win this, top, top guy. He'll win one sooner or later.

Weird game this antes only, don't like it at all. Loads of limping, can blind yourself off for fun and still pick up a big pot, like seven times your remaining stack, by being able to ante and having some scratch to get in.

Hinkle had the world when I switched off, what happened to him? That Lui fella was an absolute pay off wizard of the worst kind, the kind that sits there for 10 mins pretending to think then calls anyway

Not every Chinese play like him Jeff . Good luck to u in every tourney u in and prob see u somewhere soon :-)
