Plenty of last minute action still to report, starting with the demise of 'Rana' Harpit Gurnam, the Welshman pushing his shortstack in from late position with A-5, only to be called, after asking for a precise count, by Tony Phillips with A-K. "I had to call really," he later confessed.

Whilst the 3c-8s-Kh Flop had Rana heading towards the door, he pivoted slightly on the 2h Turn, but the hesitation was in vain as the River brought a non straightening Td.

Here is the very moment when Tony Phillips pushed all-in, and as you can see from Rana's face, he wasn't best pleased.

Teddy Sheringham has also joined the walking wounded in the bar. I didn't see the hand myself, but was reliably informed by my secret source (think big overcoats, eye-holes in newspapers, and special codenames) that he had Tens and ran into the Pocket Queens of Jonathan Martin (pictured below).

A Stearne is a gonna, and perhaps the recipient of a late-in-the-day cooler. All-in with Pocket Jacks on a 3-3-4 Flop, he was called by an elated (well, his friend was elated when he patted him on the back and celebrated from the rail) Jonathan Baylis. "Shit," said man-of-few-words Stearne as he was shown Pocket Queens. 7 Turn and 6 River.

Who has chosen to celebrate by performing oral sex on that poor man's erm..crutch.

As Junglecat mentioned earlier, Des Jonas was eliminated during the last couple of levels. He raised it to 4k with Q-9 and was put all-in by A-K. Only 5k left, he took a gamble but came up short.

And finally, on the very last hand of the day, we lost a plucky Lam Trinh who had been bumping and grinding a shortstack all day. His swan song came with against Alan Rawling's , but when he needed that spot of good fortune, it didn't arrive, the offering no aid to either player.

Yes yes, looks like it's hometime for your sleepy, cocktail-thirsty updaters. We'll be back at the Vic at 2pm tomorrow for Day 2, so until then,
