C'mon James!

The good news is you receive a gold award for services to bokking. The bad news I'm afraid is James is OUT. He was relatively short and so I guess made a move to get himself back in. Details rather sketchy I'm afraid. If I get any more info I'll let you know. For now I offer my sympathies.

Some more random counts to cheer you up I hope.

C'mon James!

I'm afraid James Akenhead has been eliminated. He found himself all-in against Andrew Andreou with 8-8 v A-K. King on the Flop led to one tablemate commenting, "Do you hit every thing?" I guess Andrew is in good form.

last seen arguing with a pot plant over who had the better hand pre-flop, why all the rulings were against him and how wonderful Steven Gerrard is

[celtic]

the pot plant was obv escorted from the premises for arguingwith him?

By the looks of the rail and the nearby cash games, it would appear as though Jan Magnus Brevik, Dave Smith, Trevor Reardon, John Kabbaj, Ashley Hayles and John Gale have all fallen by the wayside.

Mateyboy raises, and both Jen and Graham Wheldon both call.

Flop - - Jen checks and Graham Wheldon bets 2k. Mateyboy raises to 5k. Jen at this point gets out of the way, and Wheldon raises to put Mateyboy in, which is not as it happens very much. Call, obviously.

Wheldon instantly flips with the unmistakable flipping-tone (real) of one who knows he has the nuts. With a look of barely surpressed nausea, Matey turns over the and walks off. I ask Ariston (lurking near tables, playing tomorrow, drinking since 2pm) what Matey's name is. He pretends he knows for a moment, then asks Burnley John - "What's that guy's name?" he bellows across the table. Says Burnley John, "Unlucky." Indeed.

Actually I waited 10 minutes while Mr Matey spat out his bitterness into his mobile phone, and then discovered from him that his name is Mike Chivers. Unlucky, Mr Chivers, gg and all that.

What goes down apparently must come up again - Julian has yo-yoed himself back up to 18k, grinding for a bit and then running his Aces all over some unfortunate person's Queens.

If anyone can, Tann can, and Willie just proved that by taking out both Paul Alterman and Kevin Allen in one foul swoop. The hand actually left Kevin steaming on the rail, and rightly so. With Willie raising from late position with Pocket Tens, Kevin smooth-called from the cut-off with Aces only for Paul Alterman to shove behind with Pocket Jacks. Willie snap-called, as did Kevin, but as a Ten fell on the Flop, both Kevin and Paul found themselves in desperate need of a similar outdraw, their respective two outers failing to appear on the raggy Turn and River. As Kevin chewed a nettle on the rail, he informed that another player had confessed of folding a ten, meaning that Willie was actually drawing to just the one out. Ouch! Here's a picture of pain and suffering to express how that must have felt...

Hilarious Decision Of The Day:

Nik Persaud is shouting and gesticulating wildly. He says that one of alternate F Meoni's cards was at some point flipped and he THINKS he saw a low card, either a Deuce, Three or Four. The floor is called over, the situation explained, the decision made - it's a misdeal. "Go on, flip your top card," says Nik to Meoni. He flips it - a King. He flips the other one - a Queen. Maybe Nik should get those gigantic glasses back...
