Oh no, Greekfish has managed to get hold of the mike, and he's sneakily using it underneath his coat.

£33 for 17 hours of poker with some of the best players -   - got to be a bargain (just a pity i didn't win anything)

I learnt a lot from Marc G. - he never calls an unraised pot ! - and nearly always raised my big blind!

but he does fold when necessary - he is a different class - I reckon he cant lose

Mr Greekfish is the best entertainment you could ever get.

Its been a pleasure and looking forwards to the next one

Thanks to Simon T. for a well organised comp and entertaining commentary.

Some minor action in the first few hands.

First Richard Berridge makes it 4.5k, and is called by Marc Goodwin in the small blind. They see a flop and Goodwin checks to Berridge, who bets 5k. Goodwin calls. They both check the turn, leading them necessarily to a river; it is the . Marc now bets out 20k, and Berridge makes a rather brave and entirely correct call with . Goodwin shows . "That's how you got all those chips, then," muses Mr Goodwin.

Chris Bruce is the first to make a dent, however slight, in the Berridge stack. Blind on blind, one of them raises and the other calls (sorry, missed that bit) and they see a flop, which they both check. Bruce bets out 5k on the turn, which Berridge calls, and once they've both checked the river, Brucie takes it down with , Berridge only managing .

Richard Berridge raises it up preflop to 5,000 and HWCBN calls from the button.

Flop =

Richard checks, HWCBN bets out 10,000 and Richard folds.

Very little happening at the moment, mainly blind stealing and blind confrontations. The main aggressor seems to be Richard Berridge, who has whipped up a fair number of pots preflop and uncontested.

Yes indeed, largely the hands that I witnessed involved either a) Richard Berridge bullying everyone into submission, b) lots of folding, or c) some largely uninteresting blind-on-blind limpy/checky action.

One exception was a fun hand where Marc Goodwin raised to 6k on the cutoff only for Jon Omara to make it a very large 40k frm the button. With the absolute minimum of fuss, Goodwin folded up.

Meanwhile, until something exciting happens, here are some nice photos I took.

Richards Berridge and Stanley, their moods almost exactly in proportion to the number of chips they have:




Mr Chris Bruce, completely delighted that I am taking his photo at this final table:

After a slight lull in play, a monster pot develops seemingly from nowhere. With Richard Berridge raising it up under-the-gun to 5,000 preflop, Chris Bruce makes the call from the big blind leading to a two-way flop of two spades. After check-calling 7,000 on the flop and 20,000 on the turn, Chris finds himself facing a bet of 50,000 on the river. As Richard pushes in the chips, Chris doesn't look happy, sighing and removing his sunglasses as he looks inquisitively at his opponent. "That's not a value bet is it?" probes Chris. "Surely a value bet would be more like 20,000." After declaring that it would be a sick call, Chris finally pushes 50,000 along the felt and flips . Richard, meanwhile, can only tap the table and muck his hand.

Huge hand for Chris, whilst Richard relinquishes his chip lead and drops down to 120,000.
