Mel Judah just c/raised all-in for about 8k in the face of a 2k bet on a board, his opponent eventually mucking.

Pab is OUT.

Paul Parker makes it 3k from the cut-off with 6k back. Mo Muse shoves for 17k from the small blind. Pab goes into the tank and eventually pushes, covering Mo by just a few hundred. Paul Parker passes

Muse:



Pab:



Flop:



Turn:

...

River:

.

A 40k pot, yikes.

Pab went out next hand with 9-8 vs K-3.

SOS for DTD's DC -

Small blind Dave Colclough may have, according to tablemate Karl, been thinking about raising, but big blind neighbour Josh Gould apparently talked him out of it, so they saw a limp-check flop of:  .  Dave checked, Josh bet 600 (min bet).  Dave raised another 1,000, and pretty swiftly after that got raised a further 2k.  El Blondie then performed what is technically referred to as the chunk bet, whereby you just pick up a chunk of large denom chips, such as to cover or commit your opponent, and quickly place it over the line.  But Josh was happy to go all-in with his - Dave could only watch as his slowplayed stayed behind as the turn and river emerged .

Still on around 20k, though, even after losing the 15k or so in this pot.

Flushy and Praz just got in a big pot. Flushy checked called a 3k bet from Praz on an A-9-2 rainbow board before check/raising a 4k bet on the Jack turn for another 7.5k. Praz passed eventually after a long dwell and the clock being called. Flushy did say he'd tell us later what he had but would prefer if it wasn't reported until after the tournament, (or he busts out).

So the guessing game begins...

Answers on a postcard please.

Leaderwatch:

Mad Marty Wilson   80,000 
James 'Flushy' Dempsey  57,000
Bali Pottiwall           60,000
Jeff Nathan            62,000
Ian Cox                 58,000

________________________________

Paul Parker is OUT - down to 6k he shoved with - could have been worse against his caller's A-J...but no hit and he's on the rail, saying, "If I had to come back on Day Two I wouldn't know what to do..."  I think he might be dangerously close to acquiring the nickname 'the Pessimist...'

Mystic Dave has extracted a few chips back after his Kings mishap, (Though he wasn't impressed that I didn't see the 505=SOS card thing). He had Aces against...2-4 to take out a short stack before extracting a 4k call from Stuart Nash on a Two Clubs board. Dave's hand, the classically raggy three clubs.

Mark McCluskey is OUT, Ace King vs Queens. Ace on the flop, Queen on the river.

Marty Wilson raised to 1,700 preflop from UTG, the big blind called. The big blind c/raised Marty's 2,200 bet on the three clubs board to 8,200. Marty called. "Insta-called," said Flushy, "Make sure you add that." The big blind checked the turn and Marty bet 9k. Big blind folded.

"Happy Birthday!" said Flushy.

Flushy just lost a chunk with against ...

The King four-flushed....
____________________________

Then with literally seconds to go I saw him shove a big chunk of stack in preflop over the top of under the gun all-in mover Ronnie Debeaulox... although Marty gave it the dwell in the small blind (tense moments for James, perhaps) he got it heads up, as he wanted with his vs. Ron's .  No surprises from the board this time, and "I'm back in it..."

And the closing minutes of the tournament saw absolute carnage - one table losing four players in a matter of minutes as the clock ticked down.  Another eliminatee was Daniell Tock, whose ran into ... honestly we're not entirely sure who's left and who's busted - down to under 46 players and we were kicked out for the final chip count (in which we no longer participate directly). 

This count will be making its way up by 5am today, or before 4pm tomorrow, when Day 1B kicks off...
