There aren't too many people in the poker world as hip and trendy as me, but Dutch stud Noah Boeken certainly comes a close second. He looks slightly startled in this particular shot, but it's his opponent who ought to be looking at the felt with a bemused look of befuddlement, Noah's all-in re-raise with Q-T outdrawing Yankieboy's Pocket Sevens on an A-T-9-K-3 board. Looks like the former Magic: The Gathering geek has jumped up to 60-70k.

After one of many 15 minute breaks (lunch is a no no here), the players have now finished relieving their particulars and are now retaking their seat. I hope they washed their hands!

Hey Guys, good work. Can you find out who is on Jon Screeney's Table please?

Erik Sjödin is in seat 1, David Pham in seat 2, Charles McCrink in Seat 7, Hakor Bentsen in Seat 5, Michael Brigante in Seat 3 and Daniel Smith in Seat 8. We think these are correct.

Mike, the tournament director, has just supplied the press with free pizza.

Suddenly, all is well with the world.

We haven't used this picture for a while...



but this really was a huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge pot.

Raising it up pre-flop to 8k, Johan Berquist was swiftly re-raised to 24k by Julio Marines two seats down. I didn't catch the action on the Flop, but on the Turn, Johan bet out 26k and Julio, rather more reluctant than before, made the call. A River, and Johan bet out for the second consecutive street, this time making it 30k to play. Although he almost folded, Julio couldn't seem to release his , which was painfully counterfeited by Johan's .

Johan now up to a spine-tingling 270k., Julio down to 89k.

Although he took a dent with K-3 versus 9-9 on a K-3-9-Q-7 board, French madman Eric Koskas is still on a healthy 103,000.

Former EPT winner (Deauville 2006) Mats Iremark is now on 61,200 after raising under-the-gun to 4,400, checking a board and taking down the pot with an 8,600 bet on the River.

Can you include Irina in your updates please, from sad Steve playing on the PC in the lobby! I know she can do it - someone has to pay the hotel bill!

[snowbed]

Any chance of a chip update on that good looking chap Craig Hopkins you mentioned on the first page?

Keep up the good work.

Michael Martin appears to be OUT.

Nicolas Levi has dropped to 50k after raising to 3k preflop with suited connectors (I think 8-6) and getting one caller from the blinds.



The blind led out for 5k and Nic didn't give him credit for an ace and decided to flat-call and look to take away the pot later. The turn was a raggy black deuce and now the blind checked and Nic bet 10k and was called. The river was the , a scary card but the big blind checked so the 'Hatpimp' set him in but was quickly called by an interestingly played . After this, Levi then had Kings cracked by a rivered flush knocking him down to 30k, but has rebuilt back up to 50k.

Another Nick, Gibson this time has also taken a knock and has 45k. "I had an accident, I put him on a hand and I was waaaaaaaay off."

Steve Jelinek's been railing his better half, Irena Liepina, she had dropped to about 60k earlier but now she's on over 100k and looking comfortable. Also recovering is Andrew Teng, he looks to be back above the 100k mark also.

Some sons are always vying for attention...

"Dad, dad! Look at my impression of a man getting shot in the chest!!!"

Homer, could you do some updates on BA? Make him ask Negreanu something as Borat. That should be priceless!

Sure, no worries, Irena is currently on 43,500 and looking cucumber cool.
