JP Kelly lost around half his stack early doors.

Two spades on the flop, JP Kelly bet his second nut flush draw and found 1 caller.

Flush on the Turn and JP bets, Mateboy raises and JP calls.

Mateyboy then bets 1k on the raggy River, JP makes it 3k and MB moves all-in.

JP opts to fold his second nuts and MB shows the Ace of Spades.

"I'm sure he had it, I would have just called the River if he'd bet a little more, but I thought I had to re-raise the 1k because it was so small," he commented. "Well, once again, I'm struggling right from the off."

When asked what would Mickey Wernick do...

"Grind it out," was JP's reply.

And just like that, JP has doubled up, there was a  board and matey checked, so JP pushed with his assuming the board was too dangerous to trap with, matey called with though but a came on the river.

Elsewhere Red called an UTG raise with and bet out the flop but was called and slowed down with the hit the turn and mucked to a bet, he was shown the , so the turn definately saved him although he's still down 1k or so.

Sverre Sundbo just turned up in the press room, so I'm guessing he's OUT.

Hi, Alex, good to have you on board. 

[booder]

is woody deck playing today ?
are chubbs or the yongster out yet ?

[ariston]

and chance of a chip count for simon zach please?

[snoopy1239]

Dave Ulliot seems to be in jovial mood.

"So you're folding" - as Vicki Coren rises from her seat.

"I'll check the winning hand to you" (to Mateyboy when Dave had Rivered the straight)

With the Devilfish in such high spirits, could this be the EPT where he finally shines? Perhaps, although in this photo it appears as though age is catching up with him, the ol' back muscles not what they used to be.

BREAKING NEWS...

After months of losing people money, the half Wilson makes a comeback.

A gleeful Simon Trumper races over the pressroom, a Cheshire Cat grin stretched across his face as he retells his moment of Wilson joy.

Simon Trumper limps on the button with only to hit a rather splendid flop of .

The Trumpster bets out and finds one caller.

How about this for a turn?

drum roll please.......................

Turn =

Woohoo, Trumper gets out of his seat, jumps onto the table, rips off his long johns and swings them around his head shouting, "Woooooooooo, I've hit the straight flush, this pot's mone!!! Mine, all mine!!!!!!!!!!"

Okay, maybe he was just doing that inside his head. Updater's license, okay?!?!

Anyhow, Simon bet out 300 and Mateyboy called... again.

River brings a Queen of spades and Trumper decides to pray that his opponent has the bare Ace, subsequently shoving out a rather hefty 4k.

However, Mateyboy does in fact have a King of Spades, and as he hesitates, perhaps looking as though he's seriously considering the fold, Trumper jumps in with the following line...

"Well, I promise you I don't have the Ace."

Believing Trumper to be a man of his word, Mateyboy calls, simultaneously ignoring Trumper's experience and failing to realise that a possible straight flush draw is on the cards.

So, Trumper jumps to 16k from 8, leaving a rather red faced Mateyboy to wallow in self pity, wondering why he made that call on the River.

"I had to race over here to tell you this one, especially because it involved the half Wilson," added Trumper. "Actually, at one point, I even thought he might have the higher straight flush."

Could he have folded to a re-raise?

Dave will never get anyone on his site with that shirt, the web address is the wrong way round. Doh! Back to the printers...

Bad Girl is OUT.

Bit of a sickener.

Richard Redmond is also OUT. His seat inbetween JP and Rob Yong has been taken up by Greg Raymer(!)
