That's a terrible turn-out. What does Raaby think? Is he concerned for future events?

I'm resisting the temptation to ask if it's Annette.

Jerome Bradpiece has, very kindly, just written a couple of hands down for me.

The first was explaining the exit of Merryweather, apparently all-in on the river and not the flop of the 8-8-7-2-x board, after they had both checked the flop.

The second was a multiway limped pot with Jerome holding on a Q-4-6 rainbow board. The small blind lead out for 200 and 3 people called including Jerome, the turn was the , the small blind bet 875 and Jerome was the only caller. The river was the and this time the small blind bet 2,000. Jerome raised to 7,000 and the small blind made a 'very good fold' of a set of fours.

Paul Jackson defends from the blinds against Ben Vinson's raise.



Check check.



Paul check calls a 550 bet.



Paul check calls a 1,000 bet. Ben announces, "Two pair," turning over A-9. Paul shows J-6 and says, "Don't be putting that one online. I was calling the river anyway, you were just unlucky."

Mark Bointon bets out on a Q-3-3 flop and takes it right there. Much to his disappointment. He shows Q-3.

----------------

Meanwhile on Table Jen, Kenny Burke bets 400 on a flop, only for Jen to make it 1125. Burke dwells for a while, cradling in his hand enough chips to cover Jen. "It's either that or fold," he says, and opts for the latter. Jen back up to the heady heights of 7k. Go, my one percent!

I don't recall reading that in Paul's Q&A in Poker Pro.

Mr Paul Jackson has doubled up his super-shortstack, all in on the river holding on I believe a four diamond board.

Incidentally, in addition to the aforementioned Nescafe sponsorship deal, Mr Jackson is sporting what must be a record number of corporate logos on his hoodie - Bad Beat, Mansion and Ladbrokes. "Talk to me about sponsorship," says his shirt. His face says differently.

Pete Linton has doubled up, moving in on a flop, called by Gareth Teatum.

Paul Jackson is OUT. He raised Pete Linton's bet on a 8-6-4 two spade board before pushing on the offsuit 3 turn. Pete called with ahead of which was the way it stayed.

Mike Ellis has knocked out Kenny Burke with Kings vs Queens.

Thomas Middleton just made an excellent call for his whole stack after Paul Gardner check/raised him for most of his stack on a board. Middleton called with , whilst Paul Gardner showed the dominated and drawing . No spade on the and turn and river has left Gardner virtually on the felt.
