Kevin O'Leary - the man of a thousand hairstyles.

Good Lord, he makes tikay's bleached bonnet look positively bland.

Gary Holden busted OUT in a 3 way jobbie on Table 1.

Gary held  , Matey Boy 1 had  , & Matey Boy 2 (seat 3 on that table) had 

The flop of  was ample for AK & 888 man to get all-in. Hard to see what AT man was doing, though.

To be fair, AK man had the flush draw too, but AK claims another victim. I think on that flop, I may have been tempted to push with the suited big-slick, but 888 man bet first, & Gary called.  Many of us would call in that spot, in this format.

After spotting Burnley John on the rail, I sarcastically asked him, "Are you in Pool 2, or just taking things easy," merely assuming that he was playing later. To my suprise, the answer was actually the latter. He is indeed up to 8k already.

Kevin O'Leary told me he'd dyed his hair blonde "as all the top players & Icon's seem to be doing it". Ahem.

Rick Dacey bets 600 on a board of

Paul King makes it 2.1k

Dacey folds

Bah, Paul rakes in the chips and now has his usual scruffy and hard-to-count pile.

"Well I can't make it too easy for you, snoops," he says smugly.

Humbug.

Flushy 5,100

Matt Tyler 3,800

Luke Smith 14,700.

They began with 6,000.

Luke Smith & Matt Tyler, as expected, have had a set to.

Luke in the Blinds had  , & Matt on the Button had, well, we don't know, but he bet out on  flop of  , & Luke quickly called.

The turn card was a horror for Matt, the 

From then on, Matt kept betting, Luke kept calling, & check-raised on the end, which Matt called before mucking in disgust. I do believe Matt had a big hand, & Luke's speculative flop call with bottom pair paid off handsomely on the turn.

Lord Wernick & Ariston are sat side by side, Ariston has position, which he is currently attempting to exploit with itty bitty Raises, which Micky is generally calling. One of them is being set up, methinks.

Flop = after some preflop action.

Richard Sudworth is facing an all-in from G Ringe. He opts for the fold. Ringe pocket jacks, Sudworth claims to have released A-K.

Fatmarra, who is also on this table, is setting the early pace with cigarrette breaks as he usually does. In fact, I'm not even sure he's had 1. Quite remarkable. Watch this space for future ciggy updates.

Peter Smythe is OUT

Flushy is in one of his more helpful moods today.

"How many chips Flushy?" I optimistically asked.

"Not as many as I had before" the sage replied.

There you go, from the horses mouth.

If ever there was a time for a caption comp, this is it.

Meet blondeite MalcM and his rather amusing pal (top man) Fatmarra.

Moments before this was taken, I tried to take a snap of Fatmarra (Paul Moss). However, he thwarted my efforts by sticking his fingers up at me in a rather naughty manner.

The camera flashed and I said, "Bah, I can't publish that."

"Okay, okay, I'll put them down," he replied.

What a gent!

Here's a rare pic of Burnley John without his anal beads.

"The Buffet is now open" boomed the PA system, so I trotted across at the double. The queue was 25 yards long. I don't like buffet queues, no patience.

Ariston 8,925

Lord Werrnick 5,375.

Kevin O'Leary's Table is down to 4 players.

Ariston is on a ciggie break, as is Micky W.

Say hello to one of today's fishes players.

For some reason, he looks miniscule in this photo. 

Has Flushy dyed his hair??
