------------------------------- Dinner Break -------------------------------

See you in 90 minutes time, I'm off for my curry with 'the Rookie'. Hopefully the players themselves will fill you in whilst I'm gone, many tend to return to their rooms and boot up the lappie.

Back at approx 20.15 (Vegas time)

To all you Norkmeisters, "Back of the line!"

Unlucky to Monkey Matt on his exit - your first big confrontation is the key to setting up your tournament. If it doesn't go your way you're either out or short stacked enough to change your game plan. Win it and life becomes a lot easier.

Just had a look through the full list of seating arrangements for Day 2. It turns out the guy on my table who has more chips than me is not some unknown bloke after all, but Allen Cunningham...

I know a degree of nepotism exists on this site, and I appreciate the (1!?) updaters have a difficult job( and they're good journalists) . But this is the WSOP MAIN EVENT. tHE BIGGEST EVENT IN POKER, EVER - Call yourselves a major player on the PokerWebsite scene but this is a joke.

1 person updating (whos gone for a curry) - Don't pretend this is a good updating service. You guys should of been better prepared, thers's an awful lot of people logged on in the UK for info and we're just not getting it.

Who's playing? who's out? Chip counts? Incidents? Exit quotes? ....................................

This is the BIGGEST EVENT EVER IN POKER. We get a more informed uodate for A £300 event @ Luton.

Wooooah there buddy - if you want an out of date service go and read the card player site who are publishing players exits who are still playing.

Blonde do a great job, on a shoestring, and report on the people who matter to us....

Unfortunately the WSOP have decided that Cardplayer is the official reporting service and at all games they get first look, allowed closer to the table etc etc. Despite that they still manage to get it wrong.

I've done some updating for blonde and it's bloody hard work, if the money was there to fly out a dozen updaters then there would be plenty of volunteers who would have done it for free.

Hats off to Jen and Snoopy who have so far exceeded my expectations with their hard work and stamina. The press room couldn't be further from the card room if they tried, and getting round that many tables is a days work in itself.

Try it first before criticising, then your constructive comments would be welcome.

Just spoke to Kevin Moore AKA Azimut...

Limped in with 44, flop  with 3 people in the hand, went for a trap, all checked turn came  guy bet 400, he called, river  guy bet 1600, Kevin now has a full house, thought about it and thought he was beat so flat called, guy showed  so managed to avoid a big loss.

Kevin Moore back up to 11k now and Lee Clifford up to 14k

I agree They do a great job, no a fantastic job - I just think Blonde as a whole should of prepared better, to provide a decent service on such a tournament.

No criticism of the updater(s) at all meant.

the players are on a 90 minute break so the updater has gone on one too as there is nothing to report no one in seats so they can get chip counts

also blonde isnt doing live updates for the main event due to restrictions on access to the floor snoops and jen are only doing the day 1s as a bonus

there is 200 tables basically we would need a team of 20 updaters to give the service we give at luton and then we would need to get press access that cardplayer magazine has restricted

If you dont like it how about finding updates elsewhere?

Oh wait, you cant because this is the only site that has decent updates!
