Hello - Jen here, in one of our classic impromptu press corners, at the back of the restaurant area.  Announcements are coming thick and fast about the nearly sold-out event which will be starting shortly.  The MC is saying "who dares to play a one-hand satellite?  Come on!  Only a few seats left!" and there is a busy atmosphere with lots of recognisable faces... All efforts to get Tikay to play a single table satellite have failed, and we'll be bringing news live as soon as the players get going.

The open-plan Holland Casino Amsterdam is a pleasant environment, and our last minute press allowance (thanks to Caroline Westerling) means that we have pretty free rein to wander and get our counts and stories.  Pics must be supervised, however, so please bear with us until we can collar a supervisor.

Apparently unusually, the players are only just now starting the draw, but the dealers are sat in their seats ready to go.  It's one of those tables-in-surprising nooks kind of places, with some right behind our computer area, some in The Pit and some around the main room.  The announcer is busy trying to sell the remaining six seats with the proclamation that the prize pool is now "over one and a half million dollars."

Hi Tight End, as soon as the blonde enclave loses the players currently using my laptop, I will look like my old self again...#

No it was straight from the airport again, with five minutes to check into the marvellous Owl Hotel and then set up over here.  I do appear to have accidentally booked myself an extra day, however, so some wandering may yet be accomplished.

That's better!  Yes we have just been sat with Dave Colclough and Tony G, and the expected Noah Boeken, Mel Judah, Julian Thew, Juha Helppi, Woody Deck, Joe Beevers, John Gale, John Shipley, Rob Hollink, John Duthie, Alan McLean are all here too.  Luke Smith, Jon Kalmer, Roy Brindley.  Ok that's enough for me to be finding seats for at the minute...

Hi Jen,

Say hello to Thomas "Buzzer" Bihl for me if you see him please - 7th there last year and I've got a %  Cool

Have fun in the 'Dam on your day off - I can recommend the Pedal-boats on the canals just be careful you don't wander onto the main commercial canal like we did or you might get sunk by a large tug Cheesy Oh, and some of the bridges have next to zero clearance! A must for any trip to the 'Dam

Play has commenced, unfortunately just as we have been moved to a new, powerless corner.  So we'll either find a new place or there might be a quiet moment in about an hour and a half as our batteries collectively fail.

Hi Jen/Tikay

Thanks for your efforts.

I wondered if you could find out if Red-Fox (malcolm mckinlay) is playing today.

Cheers
