I seem to be running bad at finding interesting hands sooo, for now I can only bring you more pictures.

First off we have Roland De Wolfe with a mountain of chips, that actually only adds up to 19k or so. Nice amount still but less than it seems due to his bulging stacks of 25s and 100s. (I'm guessing this is an indication that shock horror, the Wolfe, has been busy thieving away)




This character was seen snoozing away at the table earlier allegedly but seems to have perked up considerably since then.

Here is the now fully conscious Doyle Brunson, taking time out to chat to a fan on the rail.




Finally we have American (I think?) Cory Albertson, owner of the most prominent sweat band in the tournament. After the tournament he's off for a quick game of doubnles with Bjorn Borg (possibly...)

Poor old Doyle, not only does he have we press reporting that he nodded off at the table, but now some heartless rogue is making off with the Brunsonmobile.

Also Mr Dave Colclough, who has perked up more than he appears:

Floppy, who, in spite of having almost exactly 10k in front of him here, is now down to only 4k, eek. He's definitely played some hands then... Will have a chat with him shortly...




Er, which other blondes are playing? Where am I? Why does my coffee cup have no coffee in it?

1) Just off to find out info on Mark O'Neill/ Matt Kay and Dan Kelly. Quick note...a few elements will conspire to make requests for players unknown to us more tricky.

a) There are no identifying cards for the players
b) There are lots of players left
c) many tables have now broken meaning the players are scattered around all over da place.

Soooo, you can help us if you have physical descriptions or, even better, current photos of the players that would be just sooperb kidz!

a) There are identifying cards for the players, but nobody is using them, possibly due to there being something indefinable about Liam Flood's voice that makes everyone sort of just giggle at what he's saying and talk amongst themselves rather than take note and do what he says
b) There are lots of players left
c) many tables have now broken meaning the players are scattered around all over da place.

FYP, Mr Cat.

The more eagle-eyed among you



may have noticed that just after I posted Sorel Mizzi's chip count as 9k, Junglecat posted his chipcount as 20k. I hunted him down, and he has indeed doubled up somewhere along the line. He's been moved to David Rudling's table, Rudling currently on a similar 20k or so.

Also spotted - Messrs Pascal Perrault and blondepoker Waterford Festival winner Michael Trimby, ducking and diving:






And Mr Nick Gibson, who is on 15k and tells me that he mustn't grumble or something terrible will happen. Myself, I like grumbling.

Go Jen, chips will come back !!

Like Junglecat, I have been running pretty bad when it comes to actually seeing some good action as I walk the room. I seem to be timing it every time so I see a massive pot being pushed towards a player I do not recognise, and I am just in time to see a hand checked around and folded to a small bet from the button or something. Most disappointing. So instead, I give you:

Does anyone recognise either of these chaps? Mr National Championships bet 700 on a flop, only to lay it down when Mr Full Tilt Brownshirt Man made it All In, or 2,375 total.

LoL @ them all having hi-tech Sony & Bose headphones, then Floppy's v old JVC's make an apperance.
