From Marc?

I'd be tempted to repop him.

I arrived at table Womble to find him mid-dwell, on the river, over a board of .  David Colton in the big blind had just bet into the 8k pot (either 5,000 or all-in, either way it's basically Womble's tournament on the line).  After five minutes (at least), Womble decides to pass, and is rewarded with being shown the Ace-high bluff.  Which he was beating - but it must have been very marginal - he said, "I'd either look like a genius or an idiot.  Turns out it was genius..."

There seem to be quite a few still doing well - I'll try to do a quick scour of the room for their chips.  One of your guys sadly didn't make it even as far as playing a hand (and he'd come all the way from Ireland) as he arrived after the first hand had been dealt.  I've said it before and I'll say it again:  That's just silly.

Michele Dargenio OUT
Om Aggarwal 9K

I caught Michele Dargenio's exit hand, he was in the big blind with a stack of 3,200. There was a raise to 800 by Gyensland, which was called by Hyton. Dargenio then pushed all-in, Gyensland folded but Hyton made the call.

Dargenio flipped  , whilst Hyton tabled  . the board came  and was no help for Dargenio

Oh, and next week, sure, you're on.   Must check diary first, but in all probability nothing else going on.

Here's Stuart Rutter, who just described the hand "which has thrown me the most tonight..."  He raised with , one caller.  Flop brought A K 9, he bet around the pot, call.  The turn brought a most likely irrelevant 4, which he bet at 1,800.  He then got just what he didn't want, a 6k re-raise all in.  He spent a while wondering if he was being bluffed (there were two clubs on board), then decided that his opponent was confident, and passed.  He was shown the victorious, if dominated A 10, which was apparently not seen as a hand which needed to bluff to win...

He's down to under 7,000 now, it looks like.

Willie Tann is out.

I arrived at the table whilst Willie (first to act) was contemplating his action on a  board. The pot was c.4k and Willie with a stack of c.9.5k bet out for 3.5k. Trevor Reardon after a dwell, re-raised for an additional 7k, enough to set Willie all-in. After a brief dwell and a shrug of the shoulders Willie made the call. Reardon showed  and Tann mucked his cards.
