After going down to just one chip (well, okay, it was mid-hand, but still...), Kevin O'Leary has somehow avoided the bubble as the tournament is finally whittled down to 18, and thus two tables. The unfortunate victim was instead Steve Craig. Pushing with , he was looked up by the of Dennis Clough, but although the was kind, the river was as mean as a bitter traffic warden. The far table is now being broken.

As Steve Craig slipped away broken-hearted, a minor disruption erupted on the neighbouring table between Ali Mallu and Roberto Romanello. It was the latter of those who was on the offense, the Welshman livid that Ali was showing cards to Terry Owens and not the rest of the table. "You can't do that!" he exclaimed, gradually becoming more and more irate. "You know it's wrong Ali." Although resistant at first, Ali eventually apologised, but Roberto remained enraged. "He saw your cards." "No I didn't," replied Terry. "You're wrong." "This shouldn't be happening," continued Roberto. Eventually, and rather ironically, it was Greg Hunt who played mediator, telling Roberto he was in the right but advising him to let it go. In truth though, it's hard to take Roberto seriously when he's in fancy dress. It'd be like seeing Floppy tell me off in a tutu.

Justin Devonport has doubled up courtesy of Tim Flanders, versus on an uneventful board. Tim now low once again, but at least guaranteed of a pay.

Lawrence Gosney is OUT. Sid Harris the conqueror. Sid has since doubled up again with against Dominic Rossookh's pocket nines and seemingly running better than a Frankstein's monster-blend of Thewy and Usain Bolt.

Pippa Flanders, meanwhile is out. Ali Mallu raising once more and Pippa seemingly sick of it, went with , but the "Malluster" had and the sealed her doom.

Justin Devonport is also out pushing against Rob Sherwood's cut-off raise for not much more with only for Rob's cowboys to survive the shootout on the board. Rob also took a few chips of Sid Harris before then, button raising and then immediately announcing all-in after Sid led out on a board to which the latter quickly mucked. After a few near misses, could the Robster do it this time? Or is this the time of the Surindernator or the Mallu Express?

[snoopy1239]

With 15 players remaining, there isn't too much happening, but I did note a couple of minor pots. On an board, Surinder's river bet of 24,000 was called by Terry Owens whose was beaten by . On the same table, Ali Mallu pushed Mohammed Shoahebe off a board with a 20,000 bet, and subsequently showed .

[snoopy1239]

Tim Flanders has doubled up yet again and displaying the fighting spirit of a Rocky/Creed battle. All in with versus the of Tony Cascarino, Tim flourished on a clinical board to increase his stack two fold.

[snoopy1239]

Dyfed Price is out in 15th. He pushed his short-stack in under the gun for a rumoured 35,000, but was looked up by Sid Harris in the small blind.

Not bad, a slight case of the sniffles earlier, but I hear he's over the worst.

It's Christmas in the Sherwood house. Terrence Owens pushed on the button for 120k, but Sherwood woke up in the big blind with , dominating the Scouser's .

Rob put his hands on his head as the dealer dealt the flop saying, "If I lose this one now..."

He needn't have worried though, the board came out to give him the nut flush and suddenly Rob has shot into the join lead with Tony Cascarino.

[snoopy1239]

If they continue to drop at this pace, we could be done by midnight, Blackpudlian Gareth Jones becoming the next departee and hitting the deck in 13th. With circa 35,000 in chips, Gareth pushed under the gun with , but was called, albeit after a moment or two of deliberation, by Greg Hunt's on the button. The board had about as much excitement as a trip to the station with tikay, and The Nugget was gone.
