Tony G raised, David Rudling re-raised, only to be set all-in, with an eventual call.
Rudling showed KQ on a Q 7 8 flop, and we think Tony G had 9 10 (although there is no announcing going on in here and we can't get that near the table).

End result - double up for David.

Hehe Woody...you should write promotional material for Norway!

This is the same Sverre Sunbo that gotbest buddy with mike the mouth while sitting at the same table in this years wsop. Goes to show that a bit of trash talk is not bothering Sverre.

[Woody]

Sverre has an amazing tendancy to take trash and translating it into dance, and Tony G and other "wannabee" bullies will just be thrown over Sverre's shoulder and end up in the corner sounding like small infants with no teeth.

Did Sverre by any chance develop his skills for playing against trash talkers while at the same table as your good self, Woody?

Think it's a sell-out by now, too, as they are ONLY using "downstairs", so capacity would be only, what, 100 or so?

Yep it was a sell out, I spent 2 days at the Vic, didn't think about buying in early and left it to the day before, slept in, got there with a minute or so to spare and only got 4th on the reserve list, not good enough.

Never mind, caught up with the update now.

Stuart Nash is all-in on the small blind. Sverre Sundbo puts in 200k just to make sure they're heads up... but they've both got AQoff!
5 9 K 10 A gives them, as expected, a small profit of half the antes...

Blinds at present: 1,500 - 3,000 with a 200 ante

I second that Kenneth (nice pic by the way, must have been a good photographer took that one!). Bring home that sterling to Ireland Peter.

Three-way all-in here:

Angelo Besnanou moves all-in, is called by David Rudling, and then K. Vasiliou moves in over the top, with a call.
Besnanou: KQ
Rudling:  A9
Vasiliou:  AJ

Board comes 10 8 3 K 9 after they're all on their backs, meaning that Angelo triples up (I think he might have said something like "Baby!"), while David Rudling's A9 takes the side pot.
K. Vasiliou is OUT in ninth place, receiving 13,100

[Djinn]

With one elimination, the players are shuffled closer together which receives another chorus of 'boo's as their priorities clash slightly with TV's.  Nevertheless, they're back and playing.

Cracking reports jen, any chance you could get the old codger to post a few updates from the 300 comp ?? loads of blondites in that one ..Pleeeeassseeeee

[Djinn]

Sorry Kev, the codger (sic) has the only laptop here so we're taking turns on it covering this event.  No wifi here either so we're using that sim card thing which is nice and slow, not to mention the fact that the other comp is taking place downstairs... When they have a break I can give you some tidbits of information, though - anyone you want me to find in particular?

[maruxz]

What are present chip counts?

[Colchester Kev]

Jen, you are a star, can you let us know the fortunes of Ian "Vidal" bradley, and the burnley boys if they are playing it

[Woody]

Jen: Thanks for you comments earlier. Got a bit embarrassed.

What happend to Tony G. Did you whisper in his ear that he was about to experience a Viking attack, and he got all quite and is reading history books to see the meaning of the word Viking? By the way, can he read?
