Tut, not very original. Stop ex-thew-ming these long-buried puns.

Bad luck Julian and Jen. Bad day for players with names beginning with that letter. Maybe they were just feeling a bit jaded?

Buffet sounded awesome.

You must be thewpid if thew think we're going to stop punning.

Sam Trickett looks to be our chip leader, but Mickey Wernick is also going well. It's going to be close but I think we might just get down to 20 players before we make nine levels.

Yes indeed, also now fallen by the wayside is Jerome Bradpiece. He bet 1200 on the flop, and just flat-called Kerry Taylor's raise to 4k - most of his stack. The turn came the and Taylor moved all in to cover Jerome; Jerome called.

Jerome -
Kerry -

"Nice call," some random people are saying to Jerome, but:

River -

And he's OUT. Here he is in happier days:

OVERHEARD CONVERSATION OF THE DAY

Barry Neville to waitress: "Can anyone explain to this young lady what 'bitty' is?"

[danafish]

Alan Vinnicombe has been trying it on with Keith Hawkins  - blind on blind, Alan makes it 1k; Camel calls.

Flop - - and Alan bets another 1k. Keith calls.

Turn - - now Alan checks, and Keith takes it with a 1600 bet. Camel wins the pot, and it is Alan who has the hump.

Oh, actually, this just in from our new friends at newcastle-poker.org - Tom Middleton exited in the last hand of level 6 - he was holding a Nine on a K-4-9 flop, but the other guy made two pair on the turn and Tom didn't. Sorry, bokkers.

A brief chat with poker's answer to Gentle Ben, Jerome was pretty much convinced his opponent would've have re-raised him preflop with most bigger Kings, so was planning on getting all-in on any non-heart turn.

of the day....

Pete Linton raises to 1,050 from early position. Mickey Wernick calls from the small blind.



Mickey checks, Pete bets 1,375. Mickey raises to 6,375. Pete calls after a think.



Mickey checks again, Pete bets 8,500. Mickey passes. Pete shows .



And on the next table Sam Trickett is involved in a big pot as well, moving in on a board, his opponent folds, he shows . The two Notts boys are probably just behind Joey Lovelady in terms of the chip lead.
