Stuart Rutter has taken a big hit.

Calling a raise of 1k on his BB (400-800), he check raised his opponent's bet of 3.4k to 9k or so on a flop.

His opponent now moved allin and Stuart insta-passed before his opponent showed the curious .

Stuart looked slightly bemused and is now very short.



Shortly afterwards as the players resumed from a mini-break on 500 1k, Johnathan Butters was heard loudly complaining about Robert Coombes behaviour. "If he's not in the pot, he should shut his mouth!" he was bellowing.

Butters is clearly drunker than a skunk who's just celebrating straight As in his skunk A-levels at a bar running a promotional of free drinks for skunks all night. He was wobbling quite precariously as he delivered his diatribe toward Coombes, who merely kept quiet and ignored the abuse and assorted shouts of "you got it yet sonny!" from Butters.



Coombes was shortly involved in a large pot. Raising to 4k from early position, he was re-raised an additional 7k by Stephen Slavin. Coombes shrugged before pushing for the rest of his stack, which Stephen called in a fraction of a second.

Unsurprising really, given that Slavin had A-A. Coombes showed the highly dominated A-K and a single K on the turn accompanied by a toothless pack of blank cards meant Coombe's brave journey was over.

After his confrontation with him previously, Butters was overjoyed. "Get lost, get out of here" he harrangued Coombes somewhat uncharitably with as he gathered his meagre belongings and prepared to leave.
"I'd butter be going" Coombes might have said had he felt like making a bad, semi-jovial pun about Butters name. Tempers are rising, fuses are being lit and fireworks are going off!

Lam Trinh is on around 25k. Seeing someone I thought might be he but with no useful number card visible, I offered Junglecat money to ask him if he was indeed Mr Trinh. He looked at me like I was asking him to tell the teacher he'd wet himself. "You can just ask him what his number is," say I. "If it's him, he'll be 14-10." Junglecat looks sad. I turn to Mr Maybe Trinh and ask him his number. "Ooh," says he. "14-06, I think. Maybe 14-07." "Ok, thanks," say I. Then a second later, "Could you tell me your name please?" He said his name was Lam Trinh. That took a very long time.

Incidentally he got in trouble with the floor - he apparently called a bet while he was on the phone, and his hand was eventually declared dead. He took it well though, like a little Lam.

Woody Deck finds Aces v Steven Cunningham's A-K! No help on the board and doesn't he look happy? Cunningham is crippled.

Lee Biddulph is OUT - I found him lurking around the rail and he told me his sad bad beat tale:

UTG raised to 3k and Lee pushed for 16k. The button calls himself all in and UTG also calls. Lee has Jacks and both Button and UTG have A-K; looking good. UTG makes a 4-flush on the river. Ouch.

"though Butters can be a slippery customer, Coombes has landed face-up."  LOL  Then flipped over and busted.

Sounds like people are in aggressive moods of one sort or another... Gl to Woody, Stu and anyone not shouting abuse at each other.  Is Dubai still chip leader?

JC and Dana - Sorry I have done nothing but watch old episodes of Lost today - I promise to go shopping shortly. 

Forget shopping. I'm so setting Mr Ekko on your ass...

Anyway, back to the poker. We have now officially finished for the night.

35 players remain to return tomorrow for Day 2 to join the 35 who managed to survive day 1a. If tomorrow's play matches the frenetic exchanges, occasionally tinged with hints of violence, that took place during the final levels of tonight, we will be in for a cracker! We will be provided with full chip counts for the remaining players from Jon Raab before long, which we shall duly provide for you but for now...

 

Seeya soon folks and make sure you join us tomorrow. Be good to yourselves and each other.
