PARIS WPT FINAL TABLE

[Djinn]

Juha just made it 80k to go and Roland stuck The Big Chip in (200k pop tart thing) to push him off it. 

Not meant to be partisan but Go On Roland!

[Pickfords]

Rolly. When you win I will jump on the Eurostar tomorrow and come and party. Can I crash at yours? Nik.

Funniest comment of the night was when someone suggested that Tikay order Jen to do something (what, I can't recall). Tikays response was:
"What? Order Jen to do something? Are you mad? 'Jen, do something', 'GO **** YOURSELF!'"
I nearly wet myself.

Jen, I've put a few pics up here: http://devore.typepad.com/photos/wpt/
If you guys want any of them, fire ahead, just credit Antesup.com

Almost like being here eh Nik? Except for the shouting and the sweet smell of Gauloises drifting through the room.

Some kind of colour-up is in progress as more of the un-threadable plaques are put on the table.  I think there's a niche for plaque tricks which not even Roland has cornered.

[Djinn]

These are they.  We love antesup.com.

Love those pics and more so the comments!!
Especially the final table pic (poorly veiled piccy of 2 lovelies methinks) and the dealer comment

[tikay]

Well Jen, you SHOULD be ashamed. Your pre-flop raise showed a total lack of respect. 7-5 indeed. And I was ahead until I was behind.

DeVore. It's true - I honestly thought I had the nuts. It was only after you RRR'd me I realised I'd missed the board completely. 9-4 is a very unlucky hand for me.

French rulings? Seat 9 was an Isreali, a born troublemaker, argued about EVERYTHING. Asked for a ruling, because we were chatting!

I'm SB, he's BB, he acts before me, fires in a R of 6. I've got a hand, the Dealer says "it's tikay to act first". I bet 12. Mr Angry takes his 6 back and passes! Tom, from antesup, asks for a ruling. Ruling is, that's OK, Mr Angry can have his 6 back. Tom leaves table in protest!

Juggling ?

Juha just checked his pocket AA three times to Michel, but no bite on any of the five rags.  It;s hard to tell from out here but I reckon Roland has 1,250,000. Juha and Michel share the other half of the chips, with Juha slightly in front.

Tikay, I was going to quip "christ, if you want 6 euro THAT badly, you really MUST be jewish!" but I have a good friend who is and I don't like racial stereotypes (being Irish and all  ). Fun evening apart from him!

Confession time: I initially wanted Roland to become a grease spot when he and Andy Black were on the same table as Roland knocked me out of a big tournie in the Gutshot and then the next night took my tank in a cash game. But he seems like a good lad, and the best player left so I hope he wins now.

And maybe he'll give me my dosh back.

Tom.

Make that Michel has half Juha's stack.  The camera angle is such that the stacks of white chips (5000) have no depth and he's actually got about 12 of them to Michel Zajdenberg's 5

But quipping on here is OK ??

And Jewish is spelt with a capital J, as Irish is with a capital I.

The blinds are now 25,000 - 50,000 with a 5000 ante.  Roland raised on the button but Juha in the small blind went all-in showing AK when Roland passed.

The next hand sees the dwell of all dwells from Michel before giving Roland a walk on his b.b.  The half hour starts to shrink visibly.
