James Keys, heavily supported by a now departed Dominic Kay, has just doubled up. I didn't see the action, but I did witness the following situation:

(1) Lots of chips in the middle
(2) A rainbow 8-Q-3-J-7 board
(3) T-9 in front of James Keys
(4) An elated James Keys scooping in loads of chips
(5) A devastated Louis Schwartz weeping into his now paltry stack

Also in the running is Graham Wheldon with 46,500. Don't aks me what blogger Phil is doing in the background though. Can't take him anywhere that lad.

Whoever said poker was easy? Kevin Chandler endures a double bypass as his all-in with Nines versus Ritchie Allen's A-K sees an Ace hit the 8-A-3-7 board before a third nine gives Chandler a second lifeline. Richie, meanwhile, drops to 30-35k.

"Great call," shouts an onlooker. "You're amazing," compliments 'The Rockstar' John Conroy.

With the board reading , I arrive just in time to see Thomas Dunwoodie call a mammoth all-in River bluff from Terry Simpson, the latter mucking (although a Seven did flip over) and allowing the Geodie to proudly reveal his .

Don't forget, chaps and chapettes, this is an interactive update, so feel free to interrupt the blog with cheers or good wishes for whoever you may be supporting. I know for a fact that many of the players read the updates, and are always delighted to see that they had a fan club. And that goes for all the naughty guests who haven't signed up. Get registering pronto or else I shall roll my sleeves up and release the guns.

And to add to that list of Chip Daddies, we have one monstrous Chip Mummy. Not sure what happened preflop, but the chips went in on the flop, with that classic Aces versus 5-2 offsuit all-in combo.

Actually it was a coinflip, the flop read and said Aces - were in the hands of Jen Mason; her opponent, known only as Matteo on the player list, had the 5-2.

Turn -
River -

And Jen is not looking quite as jubilant as she should but her inner monologue is probably going something along the lines of, "Go me, I'm so awesome, I've got I reckon 44k now and wouldn't it just be fantastic if for once I could give Dana something back on her 1% investment."

Matteo is virtually out, with barely a k to his name...

Meanwhile Aces were not so standy-uppy for unfortunate D Anderson. He got them in against the pocket Kings of Steve Townsend, only for another King to come on the turn. He takes it well, considering, with handshaking and similar niceties. Will not attempt to guess at his inner monologue, it's probably not blonde-compliant.

Here is the lucky lucky man who doubled up there:

Also newly doubled up is Mr Kevin O'Leary, all in pre with against Andy Greekfish's .

Board an unbelievable (imagine accompanying oohs and ahhhhs) .

Says Mr Greekfish, "You sick ****er!" And who can blame him. Much giggling.

A notable OUTage who was making noise in the bar is Nik Persaud.
