hows ales "lee ryan" martin going on please

Everytime he raised, mad Yankeeboy next to him has re-raised him, luckily he just raised with Eights, Yankeeboy called. The flop came 8-9-K. Alex bet 3,600 Yank moved in with K-Q and Alex just doubled up to about 36,000.

BUT, he just lost a pot to Jeff Kimber. Alex in his own words "I'm playing like a donkey..."

Alex raised to 1800, mateyboy called in MP and Jeff moved allin for 10k more. Alex said "I INSTACALLED but Jeff had KK and outdrew me....", so he is 20-24k or so......

John Gale is OUT, in the last hand before the break. He re-raised all-in with on a board and fouind a caller in Adam Heller whose Sevens held.

Heller now is the chip leader.

Anyway, Alex Martin is down a chunk, re-raising a 2,400 to 7,400 but having to pass to a push. He was shown Aces and claimed he had Ace Queen. Here he is, channelling God, Jesus, Buddha and Mohammed all at once in a tense moment. Nick Gibson, meanwhile was just content to twizzel his earphones.



Meanwhile over Table El Blondie...

Dave says, "I keep getting up to 20k and then the bastards knock me back down to 6k."

"How much do you have?"

"21,600."

"Ok, then I better stay whilst you get knocked back to 6k again."

Dave meanwhile, rolls his eyes as two plays get it all in in a 25k+ pot on a 2-2-4 pot. Both show A-J.

Sorry Rick but Alex Martin is in a spot of bother...

As I join his table and his much depleted stack he makes a "grrrrrr" face at me, slightly resembling a frustrated tiger whose diet is short on fruit and general roughage.

He's down to about 10k or so, and when Nick Gibson raises the 800 BB to 2.2k, Alex shoves his 10k over the line. Nick ums and ahhs and calculates pot odds.

"If I had Q8 I'd call like a shot!" before passing and Alex adds to his stack.

Eamon Delaney who was nursing a short stack is out. Reraising Sean Moran's middle position raise ALLIN, he is unhappy to receive a call from Sean's AQ, understandably as his limp AJ was dominated.

A meaningless board devoid of jacks and other spicy cards ensues and Eamon hits the rail, reducing the field yet further...

38 players remain as the end of the day approaches...

Nik Persaud who is still hovering in the 9k region, makes a button raise to 2.2k which the big blind callls.

The flop appears as K J 9. BB checks, nick bets 2.5k, which is good enough to take the pot and he shows TT....
