Here's Roy The Boy Brindley, who says that it's been a card-dead foldathon, with a brief break to re-raise the guy on his left who'd been raising a lot preflop.  He'd snapped and done it with two spades - the guy dwelled and passed ... They both landed face-up, and Roy admits, "I've blown my image right out of the water."

He's on 9,800.

An early position raise to 525 is re-raised to 2050 by the small blind, there is a short dwell and then a call. Everyone else folds.

Flop comes 

SB bets 5050.

EP moves all-in.

SB calls immediately.

So what did they have guys?

And Richard Gryko, chip stack currently 15,000, who is accompanied in Baden by mrsmummy, who is charming, and I reckon could be a potential goldmine of interesting stories, should I locate her in the crowd...

And then Mark Teltscher (top, in case anyone can't tell him apart from Juha Helppi, bottom), who has 16,000, and just folded to a preflop re-raise from Juha (stack 12,700) after some huffing about it.  Juha showed , and more huffing ensued: "Call that a hand??  Taking liberties... See what happened to the last guy!"

I don't know what happened to the last guy, but I bet it wasn't good.

We can't see Barney Boatman anywhere in the glorious room shown below and the table he was on has been broken so we are presuming he is OUT

5050 pretty hefty bet - committing self with nut flush draw?  Or hoping the other guy will and he has 2 bad pair?  I know I could just ask you when you get back.  But I don't want to.

Quick aside - can't resist putting this photo up... Remember that nice view out the double doors, with the sun and the fountains and that statue... well, here it is again.

Roy "The Boy" has stepped it up a bit.

He saw a three-way pot which read  , Roy bet 700, Peter Hedlund raised to 2,100, the third player passed and Roy re-raised to 6,000 leaving himself with not so much left. Peter passed claiming Jacks. Roy showed pocket 7's.

Elsewhere Ash Hussain seems to be winning every pot I see him play. He raised the limper cut-off from the button, they both checked the  flop. The cutoff bet 1,500 on the turn and Ash raised enough to put him all-in. The button eventually mucked.

The strands of "The Entertainer" have sounded again so that means the blinds are now 100/200. Jen has gone off for more chip counts, stories and photos and, I suspect, some of the lovely tiramasu they have at the buffet.

OK, we're down to just 133 players, with the blinds 100/200 for another half hour.  Then there's a break.  During which I will eat as much cake as I can to justify the exorbitant €50 PER DAY they are charging the press just to get in the room.

Today I find myself in the slightly embarrassing position of having no cash, and I think I'm going to level with the Guard - "Hey, I promise I won't eat any steak.  OK, I won't eat anything at all.  Or drink the free Cokes."  Yikes.

Vicky Coren had hit the heady heights of 18k but then dropped a load when she, in her her own words, "ran a back door flush into a bigger back door flush. Can life be that cruel? Yes it can." She said it with a smile because she just managed to get back up to 10k a couple of hands later when she pushed with  on a  two spades board and found a caller in Andrew Black with .

It's nuts because I've gone past the guard twice carrying a drink and some food and not being asked anything. The guard is obviously scared of MY guns... >:?
