Monte Carlo Millions Day Three - LIVE UPDATE

[meds]

Cmon Team-BadBeat!!! ActionJack and Strummer, doing us proud lads, bring home the caviar!!

[Djinn]

Sorry, no approaching of the TV area until the break, at which point we'll get the accurate numbers.  But after a series of hand signals have passed between Tony and Tony, we have a rough idea of the stacks:

Tony G    900k
Chris Ferguson  220k
Richard Herbert  470k
Erik Sagstrom  280k
Phil Ivey   1 mil

Kenna James, Seat 1 on the "non TV Table" is a loud, brash, American gentleman, with a big, wide-brimmed cowboy hat. He's LOUD. Not trash talk, but LOUD, bla bla bla, non-stop. Bit of a character. Comments on every action by every player, "you sure you wanna do that?", "you called $60k in a million buck tourney with A-2?", "I got your numbers guys". Nothing offensive, but seriously loud & brash. Typical American? Absolutely not. Pic to follow.

Thanks very much!  I have heard of at least three counts of food poisoning among the players which makes me feel like part of a team... much better now and thanks to Barny Boatman who gave me a banana, despite there being no others available in the breakfast room as I was still a bit shaky.

Chris Ferguson has the majority of his stack taken by Strummer (Richard Herbert) in a blind vs blind hand.  Chris raised in the small blind (40k), called by Strummer.  The flop involves a Jack, a 9 and a rag.  The betting goes: small bet from Jesus, raise -->100k from Strummer, flat call.
The turn brought another 9; Ferguson checked and passed to Strummer's all-in, leaving him just a bowl of rice...

Big hand on here - Chris Ferguson ALL-IN v Eric Sagstrom!

[julian]

yes master

[Djinn]

And Chris 'Jesus' Ferguson is eliminated in 10th place:

He made a stand with  against Erik Sagstrom's  , and with both an Ace and a Queen on the flop it was looking good for the double up, but the river (it can be so cruel) brought the second Queen to knock out the only other hat-wearer in the final two tables.
