Double up for Sunny Chattha with against Nicky Romanello's . The on the flop and it was all over instantly.

Richard Ellis is out, Jon Heath's A-Q truimphed over his A-T.

Michael Denton is out. He pushed all in preflop with , but was looked up by Mohammed Shoahebe who held in the small blind. The board was about as useful as a glass hammer and Denton was done. Meanwhile, Shoahebe appears to have amassed a monster stack that could contend with near neighbour and fellow big-stacker Anreas Hoivold.

And here is that recent victor. As a result of the scalp, Mohammed Shoahebe is now your new chip leader with 190,000, although he should keep a keener eye on his chips as there seems to be a tea-leaf in our midst. My theory is that it's an unforgiving Michael Denton trying to sneak back into the game.

Driving Him Round the Bend

Brian Martin has doubled up courtesy of Zachary Ford. Martin made his move preflop for 14,100, and Ford took a shot with in the big bind. Martin meekly revealed , which hit straight off the bat on a board.

Overheard at the £300 table next to us:

Lawrence Gosney, "Someone asked me, what do you fear most in life? I said, salad."

Javed Abrahams is out, no news how, but he was very short at the dinner break.

The Patience of a Saint

There are three players in particular today who have witnessed more grinding than Tony Hawks on speed, and they are:

(1) Pete Singleton -- started with 16,225, now on 19,500.

"Just keep putting "still in the shit' for my reports."



(2) 'Zippy' Zahir Aslam -- started with 61,050, now on 19,000.

Had a turbulent start, and has been grinding ever since.



(3) Thomas Saint -- started with 21,675, now on 25,500

I'm not surprised he's still in, I'd be too scare to knock him out.

[snoopy1239]

Well, they say you have to win your coin-flips, and never was that more evident when Alex McElhatton and John Heath got it all in preflop with and respectively. The pot was around the 175,000 mark, so was rather important, and ultimately favoured Heath. The board improved neither player's hand and McElhatton (sounds like a Scottish/Spanish boxer) was McKO-ed and out for the count.

[NoflopsHomer]

Marc Goodwin is the latest to fall. Second in chips at the start of the day, but no good now as his Ace King lost out to Zachary Ford's Jacks after another knave spiked the board. Ford has about 220k now, just ahead of Andreas Hoivold with 210k.

Empty twirl wrappers are the only thing left to remind us of Mr Cool.



Suzanne Pyefinch has doubled up Robert Gillion, it all went in on a T-5-2 flop. Gillon's Jacks holding vs her K-Q. Gillon up to about 35k, not that much with the blinds just going 1.5k/3k now.

So soon after he'd taken the chip lead, Mohammed Shoahebe finds himself taken down a peg or two following a clash with neighbour Gary Chatterton. Shoahebe started the action, raising it up to 7,000 preflop. Chatterton, donning 90's track-suit (how did he get in dressed as an Olympian?!), made it 17,000 and Shoahebe called. On the flop, Shoahebe led for 20,000, Chatterton announced all-in and Shoahebe insta-called.

On their backs...

Shoahebe =

Upon seeing what he was up against, Chatterton swiftly rose from his seat like a jack-in-the-box but before he'd barely straightened his back, slumped back down due to the...
