Luke Marsh FTW I think. He took me to the cleaners on his way to winning the anniversary cup and is looking strong again here.

It would appear as though one of those unfortunate shorties is now out. James Egarr did double up his short-stack with versus on an ensuing board, but exited a few hands later. Details of the swan song are so far unknown.

Early on in the tourney, James raised pre flop to 1k with KK, I called with QQ. The flop came down T42 (2 clubs) he bet out 3k, I shoved, he said "I told myself before the tourney that if someone shoves against my Kings I'll fold" and so he did. I guess he's taken a beating before in this situation.

He got down to 3.5k odd, Everyone folded to me when he was in the BB, I bet out 1k, he raised all in as I expected, I called with K5 off he showed Q3. I hit a 5 on the flop. He hit a queen on the turn and doubled up.

A while later, I find myself with 55 on the button, raise it up to 2k, he shoves 6k+ I call. He shows A7 off and does not improve.
