Any news on Matt "All_in_at_420" Stout?

Apparently, the buffet here didn't go down a storm, Steve Jelinek saying that they quickly ran out of food (I think they under-estimated the appetite of our athletes). Greg Raymer was one man who wasn't too happy, a slight tear in his eye when he got to the front of the queue only to see one chicken wing waiting for him.

All play and no food makes Raymer a very angry boy.

thanks Blonde, you're doing a fantastic job!

Many thanks, Ma'am.  Went to get a picture for you and the chap on Jimmy's left (fellow American Andrew Robl, I think) was being interviewed by the SikTilt TV guys.  Clearly up for providing a show, he was chatting about drinking champagne and being "the best $5/$10 player, in my opinion, which is the only one which counts."  He added, pointing at Mr. Fricke, "He's won a million dollars and he drinks water."

Anyone got an update on Odd Lavik? A Norwegian travelling with Fredrik "Kirderf" Ostervold. He should be at seat 3 on table 34.

Have you got a picture of him?

I "think" this is him next to Nic Persaud, he's not wearing DTD gear though.

And now, having just been moved next to Greg Raymer, and with, what can only be described as, 'a quiff of epic proportions' is Mark 'Elvis' Teltscher.

EPT Warsaw winner Peter Jepsen went out early apparently, a victim of the old K-K vs A-A story.

Hey - one chicken wing is better than sweet Fanny Adams - we're on a diet of coffee, unless we want a €20 hamburger, plus no dinner break as they're staggered to fit in all the levels.  I resorted just now to eating a chocolate bar of an unidentifiable nature I was given in Warsaw.  I understand 80 press people might be tough to provide sandwiches for, but Steve from Gutshot said he'd make them himself if he were given "some bread, some margarine and some cheese slices."

That's him allright. rick.w must be thinking of "kirderf", I figured that Odd perhaps was sponsored too.

Tim Blake is OUT after running Queens into Aces.

Any word on Jeffrey 'ActionJeff' Garza?

[NoflopsHomer]

Jimmy 'Gobboboy' Fricke is OUT.

I didn't catch the hand but Pete Linton on the same table said he ran into quad sixes and Jimmy mucked his hand on the river.

Elsewhere El Blondie, (I'm thinking of renaming him 'El Scoopie' for all the stories he writes down for us) gave me another note relating to Jeff Kimber.

"... 150/300, Seat 4: Old Fella makes it 600 to play, Jeff Kimber calls from the BB.

Flop:



Jeff checks, Old Fella bets 1.5k, Jeff raises to 4.5k, Old Fella moves all-in for 7.5k more. Jeff dwells and reluctantly calls.

Jeff has for the flush draw

Old Fell has

Two red Threes on the turn and river give old fella 29k pot. Jeff down to 5k..."


Thanks to Dave.

Any word on Jeffrey 'ActionJeff' Garza?

The players are currently on a 15 minute break, so we'll check out his progress when they return.
