POKERSTARS EPT: BARCELONA - INTERACTIVE

[The Camel]

Excuse my ignorance, but what did Julian win at the weekend?

I believe it was around 40k for a third place finish. Not 100% tho...

Was this in Barcelona?

Everything seems to have sped up at this late stage (the blinds are 400/800 ante 100, and halfway through the level, which I reckon will be the last) -
Down to 85 players, and Table Roland just broke (Rob Hollink had exited a level previous).

The chunky blinds are looking fairly dangerous to short stacks Julian (8,000) and Stephen Pearce (11,000) while some interesting new tablemates have appeared...

Like Roland de Wolfe and JP, Johnny Lodden and Ian Woodley, Ben Grundy and Thomas Wahlroos...

Here are to up-and-down players who seem to be struggling at the moment with Stephen Pearce (top) on 10,800 and Julian 'Yoyo' Thew (bottom) on 6,700.

Roland De Wolfe has taken the empty seat of the departed Barny Boatman.

Roland is on 34,000 and seems to be in confident mood.

Roland De Wolfe has taken the empty seat of the departed Barny Boatman.

Has he placed it upon his seat?

Talking of Stephen Pearce, here's anther guy, Peter Gould (BB) who likes to chat, this time trying to persuade Mateyboy to fold his hand after Gould moved all-in for 9k on a flop (preflop action had created a pot of 15-20k)

"Your Queens are best"
"You're good enough to fold this"
"You'll still have plenty of chips left if you let it go"

and so on.

Eventually, MB did fold.

BREAKING NEWS

Big TK (Thomas Kremser) and his gang are no longer wearing the matching ties and hankie (which, incidentally, was the always the same colour as the plasma screen) that were so popular last season. However, he assures me that this is merely because he is not with his team, which I guess suggests that he's working with a different group of people this year.

He also claimed that he was an indivdual and so should be different. I agreed and used the 'a headmaster doesn't wear the same uniform as the pupils' analogy.

He looked at me rather blankly.

Can anyoen guess Big TK's tie colour. It's a combination of two shades.

Les Kerrigan, chip leader for a good length of time, has now dropped to average, as some reasonable stacks clash creating one big stack and (usually) one elimination...

Like Rolf Pedersen, a Danish guy - the one who pushed Gwibbo off that pot earlier, and whom no one could identify (even Rolf Slotboom) until Henning Granstad made the discovery.  Anyway, Arko Helland, a Norwegian, appears (from the position of the button when I saw the table as players stood up) to have limped utg with .  Big blind Rolf raised with - I don't know whether this was the final or penultimate raise, all I saw were the AK and 55 on their backs and some tense railers urging the Fives to Hold!

Hold they did, and that was a 60k pot to the Norwegian...pictured here

And now Peter Gould is on 34,500 after his 3.7k bet into a flop of went unanswered.
