Tony G has doubled through Dutch Boyd with vs

"I'll have all your chips and you'll be out in ten minutes!" shouts Tony.

"You're the loudest, luckiest donkey here," replies the the man in the heardscarf.

"Better than being the loudest, unluckiest donkey though."

At one point, Dutch Boyd made the point that Tony had doubled up with 7-3 not too long ago, which elicited vocal agreement from Greg Pohler in Seat 1.

"Ahahahah," shouts Tony G, "I see you have a friend. You two can hold hands underneath the table."

Does Tony G ever lose a 50/50, the guy is incredible?

How many are left guys?

Interesting moral dilemna actually. I was set upon by a midget tonight in a club, kicking and punching with all his might. What is the correct thing to do in this rather bizarre situation?

We think it's 19 or 20 left now.

Fight back Stu!

Dutch Boyd makes it 16k, Tony G re-raises to 65k, Dutch announces all-in, Tony G folds.

"Wooohooo," celebrates Dutch mimicking his foe.

"Two wrongs don't make a right," I point out to the Gutshot chappy next to me.

"Yes, but two Wrights make a plane," he replies.

This is Danny Noam, poker player by night, mechanic by day, or so I'd guess judging by the outfit. I can imagine him working on Pimp My Ride.

Anyhow, I wasn't able to get his chip count due to the eerie, foreboding footsteps of a 'green media pass' owner who was making his presence felt with orders of "Please leave now", so I scarpered quick time to avoid that crucial 1st warning.

Dutch Boyd has been seeing a lot of action (of the poker kind). He seems to play a lot of hands, although in quiet fashion as opposed to Mr G, and has witnessed his stack rollercoaster in true yoyo fashion. His latest three hands involved being pushed off a Qc-Qh-3s Flop with a 30k to 80k re-raise, having his blinds nicked by Emil Patel and finally, winning a nice little pot pushing all-in to Raj Sawant's 40k to 100k re-raise. Raj quickly folded leaving Dutch on around 800k.

While Alex Bolatin continues to stretch his lead, Dutch Boyd is ensuring remains in touching distance, Lance Allred being the player to suffer.

Raising pre-flop to 60k, Allred was called one set along by Boyd.

Flop =

All the chips fly in.

Lance =

Dutch =

Turn =

River = three diamonds

Lance Allred OUT.

Tony G has doubled through Keith Lehr with against on a two spades board. No major histrionics this time, just a quiet "Yessssssssssssss" like a 5-year old imagining scoring the winning FA cup final goal.

Alex Bolotin has increased his chip stack to over 1.6 million having taken out Phil Galfond with against . The board coming .

Here's the remaining tables, just prior to the Galfond exit.

Keith Lehr is OUT.

Shortstacked, he made his move for 130k but, to his surprise was picked off by the of Erik Friberg in the big blind.

Seemingly aware of his fate, Lehr flipped over and watched helplessly as the dealer threw down a two spades board.

As we enter these very latter stages, one can easily notice a considerable change in the behaviour of Tony G. As witnessed earlier, he is clearly feeling the pressure knowing that the big money is approaching, releasing his emotions in that formidable way that only Tony G knows. As I spoke to him, he was bouncing up and down like a child on Christmas Eve and visibly restless. "Are you excited, Tony?" I asked. "Of course I'm excited. I'm having a good time. It's what I live for." what his expected response. "This is where I come into my realm. I'm having fun. When I played Surinder, I put the pressure on, I made a game of it and gave the people a show, that's what I'm about."

Keith Lehr's exit in 15th was hot on the heels of Dustin 'Neverwin' Woolf who departed in 16th place.

Sadly Ram Vaswani is also OUT. His A-5 failing to hit against the Jacks of the catching megastack of Alex Bolotin, I'm not sure the $27k for 14th place will be much consolation.

And with the exit of Raja Katamuri in 13th, we are down to two tables.
