Hi - Steve Jelinek here. Just got back to the hotel after some heavy Germanic type food at a local hostelry. Was very happy to get where I got (31st) considering I had 3 huge 50/50s in the tournament and lost the lot - you have to win a race at some point in these things to go deep.

1st day i had 50k early and lost a 60k+ pot to Maz when i was slight favourite.
End of 2nd day i lose qq to ak otherwise I'm well over 100k.
Today i push with   utg. Guy calls all in for his tournament with   . I thought that was a shocking call at the time, but having read the other updates maybe not!

Anyway I live to fight with the scandies at Copenhagen next month. Tom - I had 88 in the hand you questioned earlier.

Easy,

Steve

Oh! I take that back. Thank you

I cant believe you told him! It was just a private request that you ignored.

Hello! Could you show me some hot bavarian boys please? I dont mind hair colour

I agree!! Very slow.

Can you include Irina in your updates please, from sad Steve playing on the PC in the lobby! I know she can do it - someone has to pay the hotel bill!

Hi - It's Steve Jelinek here. I'd just like to say thanks to all the well wishers who have been wishing me luck all this week.

It's been an amazing tournament, and I realise that I still have a chance that I may never get again, so I'm absolutely going to go all out for it. I'm low but can damage anyone, and 1 double up and I'm back to average. I got a bit battered yesterday evening by the scandie called Soren, but I find it easier to play and pick my spots on a final table then short handed looking for the final.

Great effort this week from Dave Mobbs, Dean Sanders & big Ben - I know that they will want me to bring it home. Not sure that the £20 rebuy at Broadway will still have an edge after this one!

Easy,

Steve

Steve Jelinek here. 95 off suit eh! Duly noted. Would you believe you were in front? I had 34c!!! Well played anyway

I think we both know that mallued feeling red-dog!

Hi - Steve Jelinek here - tell Rumit good luck and I knew his aces would hold up eventually!
