On the very first hand of the final, Stuart Rutter raises it up preflop to 36,000. The action passes around to Andreas Mihal in the small blind who mumbles something under his breath before pushing all in for around 285,000. Stuart passes and is shown .

On the third hand, Andreas Mihail limps from the cut off and Martin Jarvis checks the big blind. On a flop, Martin checks, Andreas bets the pot and Martin folds.

cmon mr rutter.

Andreas Mihail is out and becomes the 9th place finisher winning £8,450

James Mitchell raises to 30,000 under-the-gun only for Andreas Mihail to make it 90,000 from mid to late position.

James pauses and scratches his head before asking his opponent how much he has behind. "About 280,000" is the answer.

After a further pause, James announces all in and gently pushes his stack across the line.

Andreas removes his glasses inquisitively and gives James a stare that could pierce through titanium.

"Call," he says!

James swiftly tables , whilst Andreas can only tut dejectedly and flip over .

A flop of is of no use, and by the turn he was drawing dead. The was academic, and Andreas became our first final table exit.

We just had another all-in and the Greenster was involved again.

After David La Ronde limped for 12k, Martin Green raised to 47k, before Peter Arrigone announced ALL-IN for 108k total.

Martin was pretty much obliged to call once David folded and call he did with , only to find himself dominated by the shortstacked Arrigone's .

The flop fell for no surprises and Arrigone's big slick had held to double him through to 260k or so...

Just as Rod was reporting his last hand, and I was finishing off the Mihail exit, there was another all-in and a call at the final table involving David La Ronde (early position) and Peter Arrigoni (mid position).

Although his tournament life was on the line against a man who could easily be named the La Rondimator, Peter's was in good shape against his foe's . And after the flop, Peter was looking even better, the harmless turn and river sealing the deal and giving Peter a most timely of double ups.

The last four hands have seen Stu Rutter, James Mitchell, Sam Trickett and David La Ronde all raise preflop in succession and pick up the blinds uncontested...

The players are like cobras, circling each other, ready to strike at any moment...


Stu Rutter just lost a reasonable pot seeing a flop with James Mitchell in the blinds and paying off two bets, including 50k on the river of a board.

Mitchell showed Q-7 for top pair which was good for the pot whilst The Nutter took  a hit to his stack as he mucked...

 I've been thinking about this "Save our Green" campaign and looking at some of the pictures on here and have concluded that Martin may be right. It takes a great poker player to have self-awareness and in some of the pictures he just looks tired and old compared with some of the fresh-faced youths in this final.

 Maybe it is just time to call it a day. We can look back on a career and reflect on what nearly was rather than watch a man literally disintegrate and age before our very eyes. Some of those six-way chops in The Bellagio daily $1000 2pm comps against the true elite of the second division of slightly down-on-their luck Vegas pros and semi-pros. The great times where everyone got slightly more than third prize.

 He's right. These stupid bloody tournaments are a young man's game.

 Wishing you well in your retirement old boy.

Stu Rutter just raised to 36,000 preflop and he looked like he might pick up the blinds again as it was folded round to Martin Green in the big blind...

...who then picked his stack up and moved ALL-IN!

It was just over 200k to call for Stu who agonzied over the decision before eventually...picking his cards up and flicking them into the muck.

The green machine picking up pace...


Stu was not unperturbed by this though, raising the next hand to 36k, only for David La Ronde to call, but Martin Green was lurking in the wings again and once again he moved all-in!!!

He had timed his increase in aggression superbly as once again both Stuart and David passed to leave Martin adding a welcome 100k boost to his stack with no showdown...

Someone tell rutter to get it together.
