Interview with Eck

TE: "So Eck, how do you feel right now?"

Eck "Still very nervous, I have been shaking for the last twenty minutes"

TE "Is this the biggest poker game you have been in then?"

Eck "It is only my second ever live event"

TE "Really?"

Eck "Yes I only took poker up 18 months ago, I played a blonde bash and now this"

TE "Tell us about the final table so far"

Eck "my biggest hand was me raising on button to 40/- with Jc9c. BB called, flop 8 5 2. He bets out 40/-. I called. I didn't think he had much. Turn Ace. He checked, I represented it, he passed. I then breathed out!!"

TE" Well played."

Eck "only if he passes! apart from that it has been small pots wherever possible and blind on blind battles for me"

TE "Plan from here?"

Eck "just take it as it comes. I have position on the big stack and he is desperate to win the trophy. I think I can take advantage of this"

TE "Good luck, a lot of blondes are ecking egging you on. "

Eck, "thanks"

just got back from Edinburgh after a rubbish tourney (my play not the tournament which was excellent again)

did not stay around to say thank you for a well run tournament

please tell every one

[TightEnd]

We are about to resume

as we stand Davies has tied Wayne Parker for 2nd in the Player of the Year rankings

Should he win he would move to within 2 points of leader Mark Donnelly.
