Thank you

Julian Thew in double up oddity news now.

Just spoke to the Thewster and he told me that he got short and pushed for 3k (blinds are now 200/400 with a 50 ante) UTG with AJ, and then was very worried when the button who was also short with pushed all-in behind him. But in fact the button had not seen Julian move all-in and had pushed with 10,4o. So Julian is still shortish but at least he has some chips now.

Elsewhere I spoke briefly to Liam Flood who was inquirying if Phil Ivey was still in and told me that earlier Ivey had got it all in, (whilst he was around the lower stacks early on) with 99 vs JJ only to spike a 9 on river. Yoiks!

I'm sorry to say Stuart Nash went out about 5 minutes ago, with AQ vs AK.

I think they'll be playing a couple more levels, maybe up to the 400/800 level. There's around 100 players left now and still quite a few short stacks.

Thanx

Any news of Mick"the clock"Cook guys ?

I believe he has around 35k, I saw him push Stu Rutter off a pot after Rutter had raised UTG to 1400, Cook made it 5400, and Rutter passed.

Something that tickled me earlier.

After suffering a nasty bad beat resulting in his untimely exit from the comp, Mateyboy was walking away from the table when Martyn Cavanagh picked up a small horseshoe card-protector and shouted, quite innocently, "Hold on, you've forgotten your lucky horseshoe"

I'm not sure why, but it made me giggle, especially considering he'd just been knocked out.

What really made me laugh was the guy turning round and saying, "It isn't mine".

Martyn looked slighty foot in mouthed.

Not very funny to most, but I was tickled salmon.

Julian Thew is OUT.

River = 4

Luca Pagano is OUT.

He moved all-in, unfortunately at a very bad time indeed as Petr Hedblom had Pocket Kings next door, and Barny Boatman had A-Q off in the Big Blind.

But it was Barney who won the hand after flopping an Ace. Petr allowed him in cheap by flat-calling the pre-flop all-in, and then bet 1.5k on the Ah-Ts-9c flop, to which Barney called.

Inevitably, with Barney being out of position, it was checked down with Barny taking the pot with top pair.

Pagano mucked.


Jeff Lissandro, who finalled in Barcelona last week is also OUT.
