Torstein Iversen tells me of a couple of hands he had that got him from around 60k to 110k, first he raised to 7,000 utg, Brett Davies called, the flop came K-J-4 rainbow, Torstein checked, Brett bet 13k and Torstein moved all-in. Brett passes, Torstein shows a nine. Another hand he raises on the button and hit a Q-T-6 flop. Gotta love a scandie.

Sunny Chatta has no doubt been wiping his cards in...

He just moved all-in with against a button raise from Brett Davies who had , and rivered the 3!

Among the figuratively dead* are Willie Tann, seen lurking around the cardroom in a no-longer-playing sort of way, and Stuart Nash, who raised with his only for Matt Myford to reraise him as good as all in. The flop came queen-high, and when Myford bet, Stuart Nash sadly called for his remaining few k because he didn't really have a choice. Myford turned over aces, and Nash was gone.

Burnley John is still in the running; he seems to have doubled up twice in the past half hour or so.

[NoflopsHomer]

Trevor Reardon has doubled through Kevin O'Leary with Ace Queen against 9-8 offsuit.

Chris Bruce has also doubled up, through Jan Magnus Brevik with against on a board.

Alan Vinnicombe is OUT, J Marles the assassin with Ace King against Vinnicombe's Sevens. Ace third card out.

More chips for Bad Girl. Four at her table see a flop - . She checks so fast it's like she's late for an appointment with the turn. It checks around to Trevor Reardon who bets 10k and then - ooh, exciting - Bad Girl makes it 30k. After a while Trevor folds. "Why d'you call let me see a flop?" says she, turning over and raking a fair few chips into her stack.

Priyan De Mel is out, crippled after re-raising Jan Magnus Brevik's button raise all-in with against the scandie's which hit trips and fought off a flush draw. He then lost with Queens against Adam Wilkinson's Jacks which flopped a full house.

Matt Cartwright is OUT, Kings against Ian Herbert's Sevens.

Richard Ashby is also on his way home, Fours no good against Jacks.

Kevin O'Leary is another pre-bubble exiteer, Sevens against Kings...

Which means....


STOP!!! Bubbletime!!

[danafish]

Just as they're going hand for hand my free Grosvenor Corporate Biro ran out of ink.   As I left the cardroom Nik Persaud was shouting "6 grand each, let's chop it!" Then, "no, nearer 10 grand each! Sigh, I wouldn't know what to do with it."

BREAKING NEWS

The bubble has burst. Floppy will share the details shortly.

[danafish]

Oh yes, and that Rookie stack is now MONSTROUS.

[NoflopsHomer]

And the bubble is burst, Torstein Iversen pushed with , Alan Vinson called with and the board was a pretty useless to send the scandie out.

Same hand on another table and Chris Bruce was all-in on a flop of against Jan Magnus' , lucky for Chris he held .

Turn:



River:



Expect the knockouts to be thick and fast now as 27th pays £1,900 and 12th only pays £2,500. People need big stacks for the final...

[danafish]

And our 27th-place finisher is Glenn Martin - not sure exactly what happened, but it was Glenn's against Matt Myford's . I'm assuming that the money went in on the flop as there were two clubs on there, but whatever way, he's OUT.

Players are on a short break now. Rookie fans, your hero is on 243.5k. Yay!

[danafish]

Chris Bruce is on 197k after grinding that short stack, due another final table perhaps?

I think he's just dropped a good chunk of that - against J Marles'

Board -

Chris - "You are my Nemesis. F***ing unreal."

Ian Woodley button-raises; Trevor Reardon reraised all in.

Much huffing, puffing, groaning.

Eventually Woodley good-naturedly flips Trevor the bird, then folds. Ian had an ace, but it wasn't a very good one.

Bad Girl Xuyen Vladar is OUT in 26th place, RookieITB raised to 22.5k in late position, Bad Girl pushed on the button with A-Q for 27.5k more. Rookie made the call with the dominated Q-J, but the board came 4-9-Q-T-J to knock her out. Luckbox.

Shortly afterwards Adam Stoneham knocked out Joe Grech in 25th with A-Q against Q-J, he then took out John Doyle with Aces against Ace Jack. Get ready for the tidal wave of exits people.

[NoflopsHomer]

Any chance of a chip count of the Two Irish Boys, Paul Leckey & Michael Muldoon? Cheers.

Paul Leckey has just been knocked out by Brian Altman, he was very short. Michael Muldoon has roughly 136k

Jan Magnus Brevik just doubled up with A-J vs the A-K of Alan Vinson, four-flushing his .

Ian Woodley is OUT, shoved with , found himself dominated by the of Ian Herbert and has gone.
