Good luck to Steve Read, Greek Jack and Maz Nowab too! Keep up up the good work Jen and Flops.

Blinds 150/300 and we are restarting.

thanks jen

I see tikay lurking in the background of that photo, please also pass on a gl message to him as well please. also remind rudders that we swapped 10% just before i bust yesterday, i think we struck a gentelemans agreement before the flop was dealt when i turned over JJ vs 99, im sure he will honour this agreement, many thanks..

Will see if we can get to him in the buffet queue...

He said, "No." But perhaps in slightly less polite terms.

Rudders is OUT -

With a stack of the hovering-around-average, he found himself in the big blind with , calling a raise to 800 along with a couple of others.  The flop came and he checked - the initial raiser made it 1,500 to go.  "Ace-Jack," thought Rudders, correctly.
Then another player moved in over the top.  "Flush draw," thought Rudders, incorrectly, as he moved the rest of his stack in and found he was up against not only the AJ but a flopped set of Threes which stayed good all the way.

He seemed pretty cheerful, unwilling to grind his way into day Two with a small stack, having previously said something about Pab's agreement which sounded like, "Blow me," but couldn't possibly have been anything so rude.

[Djinn]

A couple of chip counts, during the post-dinner full-count input lag (thanks to Jon Raab and team for collecting those numbers five times a day...):

Rod MacDonell - his seat is empty, with another person's seat card in it, which leads me to believe he is OUT
Maz Nawab     12,625  (Sitting next to Thewy who now has 15,000)
Steve Read     12,000
Greek Jack      14,600
Iwan Jones     11,600
JJ Hazan         13,250
Stuart Rutter   15,250  (We discovered in the break that Red Bull during tournaments is a no-no for him as, and I quote, "It makes me go crazy.  Not only will I be raising every hand, but I'll be jumping around..."  Tempted to spike him with caffeine just to watch the consequences.)

[NoflopsHomer]

Barry Neville is OUT, A-Q against A-K.

Greek Jack has knocked out Timothy Hiskett, Kings versus Aces. King on the flop.

forgot my picks are maz,julian and barry.sorry if i bok any of them

[NoflopsHomer]

Hiya-great updates as usual!!How's Iwan Jones doing?Cant believe he's not wearing his lucky pink top!!!

I am afraid we've entered the Dinner Zone - back in an hour with all this information and much much more. 

Here he is, with about 16k.

[NoflopsHomer]

Womble is OUT. "I made a play!" Though when he talked about it, it seemed a completely rational move.

He raised preflop with , got 4 callers, bet a board, got raised, and 3-bet all-in and was looked up by a hopeful, (considering Womble's style) A-9.


Also presumed to have bitten the dust are Paul King and Peter Gould.

Ah good evening, sir (or is it mid-afternoon where you are?) Just resting gently after the triple staircase run which is involved in getting to the Press Room.  I am going to be in much better shape for this year's WSOP since the Grosvenors booted the press from the tournament areas. 

Hope all is well stateside, will write email when all this chaos is over...
