With a tip of the hat to Snoops and the lads, I thought you guys might like to know that Jen is on the other side of the camera and note book today, swapping her Scoop hat for an English top and togging out to play against Ireland, Scotland and Wales. Flushey and others are here too and live updates are on http://www.antesup.com/boards/showthread.php?t=639

I'll drop back and update here too to let you know how they get on. The slagging is flying fast between the English and the Irish while the scots are already singing The Flower of Scotland and we've only just kicked off!

Jen won her second round game (after a marathon girl-on-girl headsup against Gwawr from Wales), by dismissing Rob Taylor in a terrific battle. Jen had the lead for most of it and pressure pressure pressured Rob but the wily Irishman avoided being cornered for a long time. Ultimately Jen triumphed and proceeds to the quarters...

Ironside was knocked out in the first round by Rob who came back from being very short stacked so there was a certain amount of justice for Blonde Poker!

Jen is into the semis and currently leading her match, the situation is that if the Irish win the final, they win the whole thing, if the English win the final.....



.... its a draw!

Scotland and Wales have already been elminated and its Eng v Eng and Ire v Ire in the semis!

Normally I'd cheer for Jen but national pride is at stake Smiley

Jen unfortunately exited in the semis. She played some terrific poker all day. Kevin Conway (E) and Ken Doherty (I) are currently playing the finals.

Thanks for keeping up on blonde too (what multitasking and mastery of the Tab function...).  Sorry I told you to go away that time.  Please don't put that photo anywhere you took in response to that...

It was hugely entertaining all round, and I wish I could transport the Fitzwilliam down the road from my house as I may well live in there.  Your team almost deserved their first place finish.  That's as far as I'm willing to go with the congratulations. 

Hope to do it again soon, and a big thank you to everyone who made the three Visitor Nations feel so welcome.
