On the very first hand back, Ashton Philips bet 3,000 on a flop, only for Paul Rayner to push all in for a total of 8,050. After the usual "do you want a call" interrogation, Ashton opted for the fold and Rayner survived.

Mickey Wernick has taken down a 2k-or-thereabouts pot with a cheeky 500 bet in position on the river of a rag-rag-rag-rag-jack board. Both Mateyboy and Fran folded, and Mr Wernick showed them K-J as a kind of folding reward.

Shortly before his table broke, Neil Giblin raised utg and received a grand total of no callers. Blinds for him.

Mr Matt Tyler is winking at me every time I walk past his table, but he has not that much to be cheerful about as he is down to just 3k or so. He might make it to Nando's before closing time...

Can we have have some updates  for Karl Johnson (card room manager from the Isle in Cov)  and pass on my best wishes.

Karl's stack has been dented to 8,000 after coin-flipping with neighbour Ben Carpenter. I joined the drama as the hands were being mucked, but it was versus on a board, so I would imagine all the action occurred preflop. Double up for Carpenter.

Joe Grech has wrested a sizeable pot from perennial update favourite Mateyboy thus:

They saw a flop and Mateyboy bet 1k. Grech called.

They saw a turn and Mateyboy bet 2.5k. Grech called.

They saw a turn and actually at this point I was distracted by a lady enquiring after the £20 rebuy, so I am reconstructing the likely action in this manner: Mateyboy now checked, Grech bet and Mateyboy folded. Either way, Grech was raking in the chips when I turned back to the hand in progress.

Speaking of the little tinker, Fran now has her head above 20,000 after successfully locking horns with wily veteran Joe Grech. After snapping up the blinds with A-K the hand prior, Fran raised it up with pocket kings and received one caller in the Grechster. On an flop, Grech bet out and Fran called, only for both players to slow down on the turn. A king on the river led to Joe calling a bet from Fran, announcing "I need some information" in the process, before swiftly mucking his hand.

More action than a night at the Beagle's love palace now as the frantic pace continues on Table Gould. With the board reading , Zeb Zaheer and Steve Jelinek both checked to the As river where Zaheer led out for 3,000. As Jelinek targeted his opponent with a piercing stare, Zaheed remained cool under pressure as he leaned over to his plate, picked up a bun and munched down on his burger. "Will you show if I fold?" asked the Jelly man. "Yeah," replied Zaheer as he wiped the grease from his lips.

In the end, Jelinek did indeed fold, face-up, and Zaheer stayed true to his word, showing pocket ducks for the flopped set.

But good news for the bar!

For our gentleman viewers, and Llevan, I give you a slightly flustered but nonetheless lovely valet:

Also the earlier-requested dealer. I believe her shift just started. She appears to possess the extraordinary skill of dealing poker with her eyes closed.
