I think he got busted out just before they broke to 4 tables, he'd lost a lot of chips to Dave Colclough earlier and was short, so we're assuming the worst.

Dan Carter gets moved next to Jim Moult with about 26k left and jokingly says, "the only reason I'm still in is probably because I've not been dealt Aces, Kings, Queens or Jacks!" I turn around and watch Maz Nawab add at least another 35k to his stack busting Horace Harvey with Aces against Queens.

I turn back around and it's Dan's big blind and he's all in with Aces! Against Jim Moult's Kings. But Jim spikes his King to win a 75k pot and Dan is out.

Speaking of Aces, Ben Vinson just knocked out Richard Herbert with them against Nines. The latter leaving the building muttering under his breath.

And here is the scene that I am predicting will be brimming with fireworks at some point today, even more so with crazy Irishman Michael Muldoon joining the table.

I don't know why, but I love this photo, it's like a Where's Wally picture with lots of looks and little things happening.

Olegas Kovaleskis just made a nice call. The pot was three-handed with the board reading when I joined the action. Andy Fordham lookelike Richard Wheatly was the man leading the way with his bet on the River being called not only by Mark Friedman, but also Kovaleskis. Wheatly quickly mucked is cards leaving Mark to show , but he was pipped to the post by Kovaleskis and his .

"You made his call easier," observed Wheatly to Friedman.

Ali Sarkeshik is OUT. "I've only looked at one card," claims Ali as his pre-flop raise is re-raised by Ross Boatman's Pocket Tens. Assuming it was the Ace of spades, the other card was the Nine of Spades which Ali revealed after making the obligatory call. However, it wasn't to be as the board came a non-Ace finding to give the thespian trip Tens.

Simon Zach is sat in front of someone else's stack, ok just kidding he currently on around 260k




Another massive hand for Ben Vinson, in another - limp with Aces encounter - this time his victim was Michael Muldoon.  So Ben limps for 4k, Muldoon makes it 13k more.  Ben told him he was only limp raising and he stayed true to form and made it 28k to go.  Muldoon actually was not on the table when Ben made this play previously with Aces, he moves all in with  .  Another ace on the board sealed it for Ben and sent Muldoon OUT. He has so many chips now he may need someone to stack them for them:

Ben seems to be having a tough time of it, tell him to hang in there and hopefully he'll pick up some hands soon

It would appear as though Ben has taken your advice with a pinch of salt (whatever the hell that means), as he's just doubled up shortstacker Owen Lock. Lock pushed from early position, only to be called one seat down by Vinson. On their backs time, and Lock was in good shape with Jacks v A-J and looking good for survival on the Flop. Although the Turn produced split pot possibilities, they failed to emerge on the harmless River.

He may be a top tip for this event, but the Mouth of the West Roberto Romanello has taken a hit courtesy of Sami Mahmoud, raising from under-the-gun and being forced to call the extra few k with Mahmoud going all-in behind him.

Mahmoud =

Romanello =

Board =

Romanello down to about 65k, although it's difficult to tell because he stacks his chips in unpredictable amounts. "It's a stroke he likes to pull, so he can make his stack seem smaller when he announces all-in," claims railer and fellow Welshman Martyn Cavanagh.

[NoflopsHomer]

Jim Moult doubles up after raising with A-6 and Ben Vinson setting him in with . Jim hit trip sixes on the 6-4-3-6-8 board.

We have only just got down to 3 tables now courtesy of Liam Flood's 55 being busted by Carlos Walker's AK.  Liam moved in for 36,900 and Carlos had big slick in the small blind.  The board came out

 

to send Liam Flood OUT.

Carlos Walker laughing at Liam's departing words of "how could you call my all in with that junk?"

We're now on a break til around 6.45pm.
