[snoopy1239]

Greetings all. Mr Raab is off sick today (get well soon, lazy git!), but stand-in Mike Butlin teased that he might give the full chip counts a go. I'm not sure when these magical numbers will emerge, so please do bear with us as there are lots of all-in encounters occurring. In the meantime, I'll see if I can get hold of those four requested chip counts for you.

Tucker and Wernick updates please, when you have time.

I am hoping to make it to the casino later today. At the moment I feel awful, It's either the worst indigestion I've ever suffered or I'm about to have  a heart attack. I guess I'll find out which it is soon enough...

Just heard Graham Wheldon aka 'chompy' lost a 50k pot allin pre with v  ....his opponent hit quads....ouch! Still he's got 45k with a gr8 game and on his home turf will get it back soon no doubt. Go on graham!

They're on a break, but I'll hunt them down upon return.

Ouch. Who had the   ?

You could do almost an entire update just on Flushy's stack which has been up and down like a loose lady's knickers.

He won a big pot off Pab calling his preflop raise from the big blind with - and when the flop came T-8 blank Flushy was convinced he was ahead.

Even when the chips went in and Pab showed him A-T, he was still convinced he was ahead and when he hit a six to make two pair - he was!

Good hand reading skills at work there by the flushmeister.

He then worked his stack back up to LOTS, flopping a set against Stu Rutter with pocket threes and picking up the pot, before this hand played out.

With over 100,000, Flushy was happy to see Pab raise ("He's been very busy") and another player re-raise in front of him, as he looked down to fins Kings.

He re-popped it to 100,000 and was called by the re-raiser, who held pocket eights. This time however his luck was out as a little snowman hit the flop to leave his cowboys defeated.

Miraculously, he still has 85,000 though.  Some sort of sedative may be in order for Flushy.

I assume the above hand occurred after his double up, but Graham initially hit the 70,000 mark after eliminating Welsh wizard Roberto Romanello. With Graham raising it up to 5,000 with pocket kings, Roberto made it 17,000 with J-T and Graham put him in for his final 6,000. A jack high all spade flop favoured Graham, although the Londoner also boasted a flush draw in the aresenal. A blank turn and river later and the pot was his.

Here he is looking content with life, if a little bemused.

Dana's fortunes may have turned around somewhat but she is still battling on, and picked up a recent double up, raising with pocket Tens, only to find a player behind pushing all-in.

She squirmed in her seat before feeling she had to call and it proved a good call as he turned up pocket Sevens, and a series of blanks appeared to double her through and leave her sitting currently on roughly 55,000.

The Banjo Bully isn't done yet...

No idea who had the three's im afraid...hope they are ashamed anyway!

[NoflopsHomer]

Go Dana, Pab, Flushy etc..

Can we get an update on Alex Martin please?

Alex Martin is pushing up the poker daisies I'm afraid and accompanying Roberto on the rail. Alex made his move with A-Q, but ran into the A-K of Paul Folytn which subsequently held up. Alex was a little concerned that he could have got away from it, but James Dempsey assured him that he made the right play.

Whilst Pab leaps up to a chip-lead threatening 148,000, Alex can only vomit into his glass and watch the remaining action from the sidelines... like thus:
