Yes, they're still tablemates, facing each other from the opposite ends of the table... got there just in time to see a very odd hand give Jim Kerrigan a bit of a present:

Jim raised preflop and must have been re-raised from the big blind (that's the only way I imagine there was around 10k in there by the time the flop strangeness happened).  So, heads up they see .  Big blind checks, Jim bets 3,500 and the big blind min-check-raises (Jerome standing behind me on the rail - out, details forthcoming - said, "I hate that.")  Jim wasn't loving it either, clearly, and slowly counted out his remaining 9,5k or so before deliberately pushing them over the betting line in a resigned sort of way.  There was a remarkably quick call, considering what was about to be shown down:
Jim showed: 
Big Blind showed: 
Turn and river: 
And a double up which made Praz almost lose the plot, "There's Jim thinking he's against a set and the guy shows A-J.  I've been grinding all day - it's hard work, and this happens to him."  Pause.  "Well done, Jim," said in a tone so flat you could measure door frames with it.

Jim Kerrigan     34k
Praz Bansi        20k

Illustrations from Table Hit Squad -
Praz (I know it looks like his neighbours have kind of moved away either side of him, but that's not the case really)
Jim and neighbour Ripple11 (I believe) who has a tidy 40,000

[Djinn]

how is Roy Brindley doin?

Pretty well, actually - 42,200, pictured here in the process of figuring that out for himself...

[mai916]

If he was the green hat wearing guy, I can't find him anywhere and have to assume he's out sorry. It's really hard without a player list I'm afraid.

Hopefully thats not him.  If it is oh well, you guys are doing a great job keep up the good work. Cheers.

Jerome Bradpiece was moping (moderately) around Praz' table just now. "Boo!," he said, eloquently, "I lost a race."  He'd been short for a while and in one of those spots where aggressive people were always making the raises in front of him, doing things like passing Deuces to a raise on the button which would have given him a house, a double up and a playable stack.  Frustrating, perhaps...anyway he found Sevens and the button raised, as they so often do, with a caller from a big stack.  Jerome went for it - and he got the first guy racing him with A-Q.   It hit (or this story would have started with Jerome saying, "Yeah!") and he's in that recently-eliminated down zone before he realises he's in Monte Carlo and can just go to the beach.

I was saving this picture for when I could get to Hellmuth's table to get him in this exact pose and post them together, but now will have to do:

Well, you're close, he's off on break (we're rotating right now)

But here's your guy, looking relaxed despite the 11,300 stack.

Your requests are not ignored; the distance of the room end to end grows in proportion to the time we've been running round it, and due to the large number of posts sometimes a request gets buried in the haystack of poker related queries and stories.  Such is the nature of interactive update threads.

Snoopy may be ignoring you for personal reasons, however.
