Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm the youth of today are so crude.......................in the good old days of TJ's childhood kids would get a smack round the earhole for comments like that.

[Djinn]

Hi, any news on the Brit Stuart Fox?    thanks loads

Yes.  He's out.  Sorry loads

[LLevan]

Just noticed Robin Keston under the radar has crept up to 300k would be nice to see a Brit go a long way in this.

I thought that far back they were put in stocks

A picture of Pierre Hall would be greatly appreciated .......

Here's Joe Hachem in happier moments, pre-move to the Table o'PotentialTantrums.  Also featured on the lhs, Luca Pagano and Ed de Haas.

nope, its our montrealer Maxime Villemure winning the whole damn thing. but you can enjoy second place though.

Is he normally this focused and alert?

[Djinn]

Also falling just short of the money was Team Winamax's Alexia Portal. who built a good stack over the first two days but just didn't seem to get of the Day Three Starting Blocks.  Expect to see more of the frankly quite intimidating French lady, on and offline.

We're still on the bubble, but here for your viewing pleasure is Mr Villemure.

We're still bubbling here, I'm afraid. Until some incredible geek with super-googling powers and a lot of spare time tells me otherwise, I'm declaring this the Longest Ever EPT Bubble.

Press are still not allowed inside the rail, but I snuck in and got a few chip counts before they threw me out.

Michael Martin (Reader - ) - 270k and shaking his head gravely, I think to express dissatisfaction with how slowly everything is going rather than disappointment with his almost-twice-the-average stack
Luca Pagano - 270k
Sorel Mizzi - 230k
Trond Eidsvig - just 35k, eek! He's having a massage to soothe his troubled mind/shoulders. Don't know why he's paying Legendary Masseuse Suki to do it, I'd do it for free. 
Ed De Haas - at this point I got thrown out. Sorry.

[snoopy1239]

The bubble is still threatening to overtake teeth pulling in the pain stakes, predominantly because we can't get to the tables and are relying on someone announcing the hands as they unfold. Most annoyingly, a number of random people have decided to treat the rail as a football stand of sorts, grabbing the nearest chair and setting up camp at ringisde. At one point I ducked underneath the rail, but was swiftly escorted back out, thus forcing us to lurk behind those seated members of the audience, thus rendering our press badges useless. Meanwhile, Steve Frezer announces, "Players won't be going on their dinner break until the bubble is burst," much to the amusement of the remaining field.

An enormous crowd has formed - I run over and fight my way through to somewhere near the front of it. There is a board out, and I can see it! It is and Pagano Senior Claudio has bet 18k form the button. Felipe Taveres is deliberating. He stands up from his chair. He deliberates for some minutes. The crowd shuffles closer, holding its collective breath. Two of the other players at the tables are reading magazines. One is yawning. Felipe folds.
