Blackpool Bonanza, 100 Omaha Rebuy, Friday

[tikay]

Play continued right up to 0530am, when "last 3 hands" was due to be called. I left the Casino at around 0400, & there were still 20 players left in. Poor Luke Smith, in his first ever Omaha tournament, looked gutted to exit on the Blue Square Bubble in 21st, but a great showing from him, & he was nicely caked up early.

Among those still in contention at 0400 were...

Dave Colclough, 70k

Xuyen Bad Girl Pham 90k

Trevor Reardon 80k

Mann Ip 20k

Gareth The Nugget Jones 40k

Alan Vinson 45k

A multi way chip count looked inevitable, as this is a ONE day event..
