Any news on Richard Wild aka wildrick, he'll be wearing a laddies top.

We interrupt this photo show to bring the news of (possibly the first) elimination:  I heard the words 'all in' and turned round to see Farid Meraghni moving in on the river of an board and getting called.  There wasn't 20k in the middle, so I reckon damage had been done to the all-in's stack prior to this.  Anyway, he mucked to Florian Langmann's and we're off to a flying start, compared to yesterday.

Im asuming womble will be on about 9825 allowing for anteing away but if you could check on him that would be nice tyvm . Oh tell him to give you the £20 I owe you for the kiss Jen and I will sort it with him when he gets back

Seems a bit more 'agreeeeesive' today, as Edgar Stuchly would say.

Roland De Wolfe bets 500 on the turn of a board, two players including Noah Boeken fold. One person calls. Roland then bets 1600 on the river and is called, the other players asks, "Straight?" Roland shows and his opponent mucks.

Elsewhere Hans-Martin Vogl pushes all in on a board for about 5k, with 6k in the pot already. Daniel Smits-Bertelsen thinks for a while and passes, I think Liam Flood and a couple of the other players put Vogl on a pure bluff there.


Finally, on the table in yonder distance an early position raiser makes it 300, (blinds are now 50/100). He's called in two spots before George Danzer makes it 1,550 from the small blind. The original raiser makes it 3,800 and everyone including George mucks pretty sharpish. Incidentally John Kabbaj is looking a bit short here, he's down to around just 3k.

Everywhere you look more recognisable people pop up:  Paul Testud next to Rob Hollink, Martin Green, Michael Greco next to Sebastian Riviere, and P.I. Slade next to Daniel Bertelsen...

There really does seem to be a discrepancy in the number of Big Names in Days One.  I don't care either way - it was pretty entertaining yesterday and we're looking at ten hours of fun today too.  Deep breath, second cup of coffee.

I think there is a direct correlation between Jen's happiness and the amount of pretzels in the vicinity.

Yes, yes he is.  And one of those more subdued black ones, so I missed him first sweep of that Hollink/Testud table.  But here he is, yawning already..

Bad news for Cincin Sid followers - your man is down to just 1,525 after a dramatically non-profitable first level and a half.  Just recently he lost a 3k or so pot (calling 1k on the board with and finding, when his opponent checked the river, that he was against ) so cross your fingers for a double double-up!

Hello can u give a GL to Tonio(21) who is playing today.
All the member of teh "Dijon Poker Tean"  wish him a big s**t for this fisrt big tournement.
For a picture from him visit www.dijonpoker.fr  "Membres/les membres" and Tonio is the "vice tresorier".

Here's your man - sat next to Womble.  Real name Antoine Boudat (Tonio, not Womble), we think - thanks to Benjamin Gallen who, being French, is the best source of such information.

JP and Iwan Jones have torn themselves from the online world and are looking for a cash game... these spring up as soon as dealers and tables are available to accommodate them.  They were still going at 4am when we finally taxied out of here. 

Meanwhile the tourney is on its first break - chip counts when they return.
