It looks like we're not getting a live feed to the press room, which is a bit upsettingbecause I've grown to hate the stairs between the casino floor and the press room. So it looks like we'll be running up and down said stairs intermittently to bring you as much information as we can scrape together...

Been given more wrong information, sigh. The blinds have actually been rolled back to 6k/12k with a 1k ante.

No live feed yet, so Dana and I are taking it turns squeezing into the little tv area.


Barry raises to 26k, Nick Slade calls in the big blind.

Flop:



Nick checks, Barry bets 45k, Nick c/raises to 100k. Barry folds.


Dave raises to 26k, and takes the blinds.

Barry raises to 27k, Dave calls, Richard re-raises to 100k and everyone folds.

[danafish]

We've lost one!

Victor Kaye pushes preflop; Tom Sambrook moves all in too.

Victor - 

Tom - 

Board - 

So Victor Kaye is OUT in 9th place, winning £5,700.

[danafish]

Ryan Fronda has been doing some sterling blind-nicking work too - he's up to over 100k now, although with blinds 6k/12k/1k he's still not comfortable.

[danafish]

Barry raises to 34k from the button when it folds around to him; Ricahrd Ashby calls.

Flop -  - check, check.

Turn -  - check, check.

River - 

They both check, and Barry turns over  ; Ashby mucks. Barry is not allowed his ipod today, and it remains to be seen how he will be affected by this...

[danafish]

Dave Colclough has found his aggression, stealing two hands preflop and pushing Barry Neville off another one on the flop with a 40k bet.

[NoflopsHomer]

A few hands from before.

Dave raises to 40k, taking Ryan's BB.

Dave raises to 40k, taking Barry's blind, though Barry dwelt for a bit.

Barry calls in the small blind, Dave checks. Flop: . Barry checks, Dave bets 20k and Barry passes.

Dave calls in the small blind. Richard raises to 35k and Dave passes.

Nick raises from UTG+1 to 35k and takes the blind.

[danafish]

Tom Sambrook moves in preflop. "I love no limit," he says. No takers though, and he takes the considerable blinds and antes.

[danafish]

Chris Bruce, Ryan Fronda, Barry Neville and Richard Ashby see a flop.

 

Chris checks, Ryan checks, Barry checks, Richard attempts to steal with 35k, only for Chris to move in. They all pass. Quite a big pot, that.

[NoflopsHomer]

Nick raises to 36k, over to Barry in the blind, who announces, "All-in."

Barry, "Richard...Nick, why do I want to move all-in with nowt."

Barry shows Eights.

[NoflopsHomer]

Jack raises to 40k, Ryan Fronda is thinking... but passes, Barry passes, Dave calls in big blind.

Flop:



Dave checks, Jack moves in, Dave passes. Guess DC didn't have the full wilson.
