Not only have we lost hot-stepper Ini Abraham, but also former tablemate Jan Lundberg. Short and in desperate need of a double up, he pushed from the button with but was looked up in the big blind by Colin Kennedy Kennedy and his . A board changed nothing and Lundberg is gone.

Lloyd Rees was the man who sent Ini Abraham home. Queens v Sixes according to fellow blogger Phil, but I wasn't convinced by the 5-6-6-Q-Q board that he tried to fob me off with.

With Anthony Chapman (a former world heads up second place finisher, don't you know) raising it up to 20,500, Steve Jelinek made it 45,500 one seat down only for Dan Samson to dive into the tank from the small blind. Not willing to commit his stack on this occasion, Dan folds his hand but asks the dealer to keep his cards to one side. After Anthony has stepped out of the way to enable Steve to pick up the pot, Dan retrieves his cards, reveals Big Slick and says, "This is what I folded for you." Steve doesn't respond. "Was I winning?" continues Dan. Again, Steve gives little aways, simply saying something along the lines of "I'm not at liberty to say" and doing whatever he can to keep his cards close to his chest.

A couple of hands later, Steve turns to me, rises from his seat for a stretch and confesses, "I had absolute shite there."

Another moment of we've-been-playing-up-past-our-bedtimes forgetfulness from John Conroy, when he attempts to limp from the small blind when Jonathan Martin has shoved utg. It's ruled that he can fold, but has to leave the whole 8k limp in the pot.

(By the way, Jen has acquired a giant bag of assorted mints and is being Candy Fairy to her table, so everything that takes place on Table Candy is interspersed with polite requests along the lines of, "Can I have a toffee one please?", "Could you pass a clear one over here?", "I don't like humbugs," etc.)

Martin picks out Conroy's 5k chip as he takes possession of the pot ("Can we have the sweet bag over here a minute?"). "I'm keeping that one aside," he laughs. Pipes up David Rudling, "They're writing all this down and probably saying rude things about you on the internet." Sighs a good-natured Conroy, "Justifiable rude things..."

Giganto-stack Tony Phillips is predictably walking all over his table in a I-have-all-the-chips bullying sort of way, raising all over the place, pushing people off pots and the like.

Jen took a decent pot off of newish tablemate Davood Mehrmand, calling his small blind raise from the big blind, both of them checking the flop and then Jen took it with a bet on the turn. She lost all the profit from that a few hands later, though, raising from the cutoff and then backing off to a re-raise from the small blind, who showed Jacks. More candy for that lady!

Colin Kennedy is on fire! No need for dousing though.



He bets a way-more-than-pot 40k on an flop, forcing Fran Egan to eventually fold.

Then Stewart Clutterbuck bets 15k on an board, and Kennedy makes it 60k. Clutterbuck dwells for a while, and then calls. The river is the and now Clutterbuck bets 60k (most of Kennedy's stack but not, I think, quite all in); Kennedy calls with . Clutterbuck shows  and is sad.

Yilfer Shevket has also been disposed of, his Pocket Sixes running into the Tens of Ketul Nethwani and failing to improve. 19 left.

Yes, I'm finding that blonde is running more sloooowwly than other things on my laptop this evening...

Players are on a wee short break after which we will hopefully have the official Bluesquare chip counts from the end of this level.
