The very last hand of the night goes to Dewi James, who finds ACES and talks Raymond O’Mahoney into calling his all-in preflop bet of 15k.  “If I had AQ, I’d call!” says Dewi.  Raymond calls holding pocket 66’s.

Jim Kerrigan has 340k. (Told you he was on fire!).

Sonny Osman maybe 190k.

Simon Zzard about 120k

Amar (I've forgotten his surname, but he's a nice boy, well-mannered, so we will call him Nice Man) has 140k.

All those counts are "ish-ish".

Thanks Dewi. I was not really unlucky today, unless you count finding medium hands & constantly walking into bigger hands as unlucky....!

I played good, as well as I can, but it was not meant to be. Yesterday all my hands held up, & I always found an opponent with a marginally smaller, but unputdownable, hand.

Today, not quite the opposite, as I managed to get away fom several hands, but yesterday's good fortune was reversed. No complaints from the ol fella.

MONSTER pot on!

Jim Kerrigan makes a small R, Simon Zzard moves in, so does Amar Nice Man. Jim Kerrigan passes A-9, Simon Zzard shows A-T, Amar Nice Man KQ (KQ....!), & the board comes.....

Q-J-8-5-4.

So Simon Zzard is OUT in 4th.

Sonny now moves in for 115k, Jim Kerrigan gives it some thought before passing A-2. I am sat in the corner of the room & Jim is letting me see his hole  cards, but don't tell anyone.

Jim Kerrigasn & Sonny Osman in the blinds.  Fliop is K-Q-9, 2 diamonds. Jim checks, Sonny bets, Jim calls.

Turn is the A diamonds. Jim checks, Sonny bets 20k, Jim instantly RR'd 80k, Sonny passed PDQ, after taking a sneaky look to see if, by chance, he had some of that board.....

Business is being discussed, BUT.....

Both players have been told they CANNOT discuss or do deals, however, "they may pop outside for a few minutes and chat"......(I'm just telling you the facts, before you start!).

Jim seems to have around 425k, & Amar 355k. Ish.

The deal is complicated, because 19th & 20th were both given 1k "off the top", and 15th to 11th were all given an extra 750 "off the top".

By the way, these "off the top" amounts have NOT been paid yet - NONE of them. As The Casino does NOT recognize deals, the "off the top" money cannot be paid until the winner collects his first prize, THEN he pays out this line of losers (that includes me) who have had a bit off the top.

And the deal is done, they both take 40k, and are now playing for 5k, & the Trophy, presumably.

And then a moment of surreal irony. The TD says "Gentleman, as a deal has been done, we are reducing the clock to 10 minutes". Guess they must recognize deals NOW........

Tikay told u were unlucy with the KQ worked ok for Mr Nice Man, whilst theres a lull in proceedings though, have you noticed the CPC final on tonite, could be good value as there have only been 3 sats and only 5 entered so far 1 seat guaranteed.

so how does these deals affect ranking points

the off the top dont make a difference as they are pre final table i presume?

so they all get there normal ranking points apart from the winner who gets 2nd?

Thanks Dewi, I'd LOVE to play that CPC jobbie tonight, but I've gotta drive back to the Midlands as soon as this is over & get some work done. This  retirement malaraky is hard work!

Amar's KQ. Wow! He had some backbone to call with that, eh? I moved in with it, & missed. Mr Nice Maqn called with it & hit. That's poker, good luck to him.

Lemon, Jim says "much appreciated".

Jim is well handy for me, as he keeps his chips stacks in nice multiples of 100k, or 10's or 20's, so it's easy to count them. Mr Nice Man keeps them all higgly piggly.

I prefer to keep them nice and neat, usually two stacks, sometimes more. Well, when I say "stack", I mean one. Chip, that is.
