Picture the scene:

There's roughly 30k in the pot and Sami Yusuf puts Lalit Khajuria all-in for his last 1800 on the turn of a two spades board.

Lalit passes.

Neil Channing and Soxy look bemused. A little like this:

board, Stuart Fox checks, Mickey Wernick bets 2k, Manuel Palanca calls. Foxy makes it 7k, Mickey passes, Manuel calls. Both check the turn, then Foxy leads out for 8k on the river. Manuel passes, Foxy shows .

You don't need cards to accrue chips, as ducker and diver Stuart Fox is currently proving. His latest mugging was against Bambos Xanthos, the Cyprian hotelier check-calling Foxy's 5k bet on a two hearts Flop before betting out 10k on the Turn. A quick glance down and riffle through his chips later, and Foxy was announcing all-in, thus leaving Bambos slightly flummoxed. After a long dwell, and although he had a large portion of his stack committed, Bambos opted for the fold, but was cheekily shown by a cool cucumbery Foxy.

Vicky Coren down to a lowly 6k went all in blind from the cut off, she was gladly called by Roberto Romanello with 99 & the button with K 9.  Vicky's shock at seeing the Jacks was increased by trebling up too.  Great timing!


Alan Vinson is on 15k and "hiding 30k in back pocket" he wishes.

Vicky had and the board came two hearts giving her a cheeky flush. Keep the eye candy in I say!

Priyan De Mel is OUT. He limped utg the gun with , Maz Nawab limped behind him and they saw a flop along with the blinds of two hearts. De Mel bet out convinced he could take the pot down with the strength of his UTG limp, Maz called and the blinds folded. The turn was a , and Prian was still convinced he could take Maz off any sort of ace, with a move in and so he pushed, but Maz had the one hand that could call, a flopped set of deuces which took the pot after no Ten appeared on the river.

Ken Wong, who has been rather inactive of late, has just doubled up off Surinder Sunar with K-9 against Tens and made two pair.

Meryeysider (I hope, I get confused between them and the Geordies) Gary Shaw is running hot, first doubling up with Jacks versus Carlos Walker's A-K, before pushing all-in over the top of Ketu Nathwani and forcing him to fold. Unfortunately, he's still got under 20k... but at least he's back in the game.

Maz Nawab and Roberto Romanello look to be our chip leaders with around 80k each.

**  FOXY SOXY REPORT  **

Stuart Fox - 55,000 (even after doing 15,000 "being stupid")
Chris Sokrati - 18,200


Don't know how Dan Carter lost some chips but with about 12k is raising and reraising frequently (Ian Frazer 2 hands in a row) picking up those much needed blinds and antes.

Yes, he let a rather inappropriate loud shout of "Yes!" as the river card failded to help Surindar.

So just to as I went to add a Soxy picture to his count I see him double up through Surinder Sunar who is doing a marvelous effort in spreading the wealth on his table. 

Chris Sokrati raised to 2,200 preflop and had a donator in Surinder.  On a 3 3 8 flop Soxy carried on the bet this time 3k, again Surinder called.  A 10 on the turn brought a check from both players then a queen on the river induced a 4k bet this time from Chris, leaving himself about 9k behind.  Surinder picked up a tall stack to effectively put Soxy all in, he makes the call but now not 100% sure he has the best hand. 

He needn't had worried because his  brought about an insta muck for Sunar.  I think Surinder just had it in his head Chris was "at it" and was a little skewif this time.   

Soxy - 39,000

Spaniard F Lopez, part of the visiting poker troupe from Spain... Seriously what should I call a group of poker players? A bad beat of players? A flop of players? A deck of players? A flush of players?

Anyway he just doubled up moving in on a three diamonds board with but got a call from Patrick Slusarek, who at least has dibs on the coolest surname today, with , the turn paired the before the river gave the Rod Paradise lookalike the pot. (Photo to come later)

Surindar Sunar has just doubled up through Neil Channing, board, Channing set him with and Sunar duly called with .
