Play has ended for the day with 77 players still in.

Hellmuth still had time to take a pot down with a 13k bet on the river of a board whilst Jamie Gold has a $700 massage bill to pay.

We're now going to focus our energies on the end of the HORSE event.

Unless I'm mistaken, the only female players remaining are Vicky Coren and Isabelle Mercier, so I'd imagine she has already departed.

Just as they were bagging up, I managed to grab a few last minute chip counts:

Vicky Coren -- 29,200
Mark Bartlog -- 20,200

I offered Jen a buck (no 'f' gags please) to approach Tobey Maguire and say, "I loved you in Donnie Darko".

She wasn't up for it.

See you tomorrow for what looks like being an entertaining Day 2 with plenty of stars still plugging away.

Different bat time (2pm US, 10pm UK), same bat channel.

Toodle loo

Come to think of it, do you see any resemblance between Beavis and our own special beagle?

Huh huh huh huh.

I've mainly been covering the H.O.R.S.E. final today, but I did look up when they announced that the remaining players were in the money... speaking of treating Phil Hellmuth like he might be a superior being in all ways, they also announced that this was the (impressive) 62nd cash of Mr. Hellmuth in a WSOP.  "Give him a round of applause.  Come on, he deserves it."  A few minutes later, they announced that another string of cashes had been added to - by Men the Master.  "It's Men the Master's 56th cash, too," came the announcement.  He took exception to this, however, shouting, "I got 59!  That's wrong."  Well, that's a lot of cashes between them anyway.

Much hilarity has just ensued due to a highly intoxicated Thomas Wahlroos waltzing into the cardroom and demolishing Roland de Wolfe's 140k stack. Moments later, he trundled over to Phil Hellmuth's table and did exactly the same. He then buggered off.

Whilst Roland look shocked, he was still smiling. Hellmuth, meanwhile, was livid, and raced over to Roland exclaiming, "Hey, Roland, what's up with your boy? Something needs to be done about him."

With the bloggers giggling under their breath, Hellmuth then chased the TD and demanded action be taken. "It's not acceptable," he moaned. "He can't just come in here and do that! I was in the middle of a hand!"

You have to laugh - Wahlroos eliminated the Poker Brat from the WPT Final, if my memory serves me right.

this had me laughing out loud...class!
