With around 17k in the pot by the flop, a faceless Paul Lammas bet 7.2k from the button. Mr Steve Vine dwelled, huffed and puffed a bit, and then folded before wandering off for a minute to refocus or something. A grape move for Lammas against the Vine, and he's up to 40k.

Still no face:

Dewi Does A Brave Thing

...or not, depending on what his cards were.


With the board reading , Eddie Lundon in the big blind bet out around 8k. Dewi made a face for a bit, before somewhat resignedly announcing that he was all in . An insta-fold later and Dewi was up to 35k or thereabouts, while Lundon was down to a mere 15k.

Very happy with this result:

Hurrah, down to just 78 now. Early night looking promising.

Latest to go is Andrea Gough who got it all in with Q-J against the delightfully named John Dick's A-K. Not sure when it went in although I suspect it was preflop. Nevertheless, the T-2-5-9-5 board offered a glimmer of hope before spitting that glimmer back in Gough's face and sending her hurtling to the proverbial rail.

Mr Dick on around 45k now.

Unlike Button, plenty of short stacks are still hanging in by the merest thread, and don't seem to be afraid of sacrificing a significant chunk of their meagre chip reserves to the bluffy gods.

An interesting battle developed between relative short stacks Barrie Cooper (SB), Kate Langshaw (BB) and Ken Wheatley (B).

All three players checked a flop and Cooper checked the turn too. Langshaw tried it on for 2.5k, but the bet was so good it got called twice. Come the river, it checked around to Wheatley, who bet 4.5k. Cooper called, Langshaw folded and Wheatley just mucked before Cooper had turned over the for a full house.

Current Wee Stack Standings:

Ken Wheatley: 18k
Barrie Cooper: 25k or so
Kate Langshaw: 20k

We're down to just 90 players already, still rather too many for my liking if I'm going to be driving home tonight, but definitely an improvement on our 107 starters.

Latest to go is the curious Caroline Button. Somehow down to mere pocket change after starting the day with an admittedly not-great 14k, she got it in with 7-8 offsuit against the A-Q of the youthful Charles Flynn and the, er, A-Q of moderately youthful Gurpreet Nagi. An ace on the board, a split pot for the gents, and a nice Sunday afternoon off for Button.

Another early casualty is, we believe, one Matthew Seer -- he shoved with but couldn't see the call from Nikolaos Sforos coming. Sforos had and a total absence of suckouts on the three diamonds board sent the Seer home.

One early unfortunate heading for the door is Karabiner. Wrongly reported OUT last night by both DTD and us (turns out someone mistook him for Red Dog Huh?), he took a chance early doors and got it in with pocket sixes against A-J. Ace first card out. Ul, wp Karabiner.

Looks as though the final count for People Coming Back Tomorrow is 107. Glad I don't have to cook that Sunday roast.

With just seconds of play to go, our Day 2 tally looks frankly terrifying -- so far we have 108 coming back tomorrow. I for one will be putting in a request for 5 minute blinds.

A series of last-minute double-ups point to a loooong long day tomorrow...


Ms Kate Langshaw, versus Alan "Slim" Picken's .

Board:


-----------


I believe one Lee Clarke, whose stayed good against SKULLMAN's all the way down a three diamonds board.


-----------


Also one actual exit, in the form of, we think, one Charles Nelson. Jesper Persson bet out on a two spades board only for Nelson to shove. An insta-call later and Nelson was drawing very, very dead with his paltry bluffy up against the mighty and full housealicious of Persson. Oops.

Sunny days for Gurpreet Nagi, as he kills two poker-playing birds with one stone, er, two clubs, umm, something like that.

With Demetrios Nikolaidis already all in somehow by the turn of the three clubs board, Shaun King decided to stick his chips in too, at which point I arrived at he scene. Sunny thought about for a moment, before announcing, "I have to call."

"Do you have trips?" asked King.

"No."

"Do you have a straight? A flush draw?"

Sort of. Sunny turned over and King's head sunk into the felt as he turned over .

River:

Nikolaidis couldn't beat top pair queen kicker either, and both players headed off to do whatever it is people do at 2am when they've busted out of the tournament (cash, imo).

Gurpreet Nagi up to a whopping 75k+.

A chilly reception for Paul Frost as he shoved from the big blind. Ms Joan Hadley, who'd limped in utg, reshoved, and they were on their backs.

Frost:
Hadley:

Board: a not five-ful enough , and he is out.

LOL I'm asking for counts please hosts...

Nicky Mclellan was on around 40k about 15 minutes ago after those timely quads against chip monster Rana Gurnam. Will do our best to chase him up...
