We're currently coming to the end of a ten minute break, but just before they dispersed from the tables, Graham Wheldon found his newly acquired stack across the line against 'Mad Turk' Yucel Eminoglu. Most of the action took place preflop, Wheldon opening for 1,200, Turk making it 5,000, Wheldon 15,000 and Turk calling. On the Two Clubs flop, Wheldon open-shoved for around 30,000, thus leaving Turk with a decision for his tournament life and, potentially, the biggest pot of the night. "You know what," said Turk as he loomed over the table, "I'm going to lay this down, but I swear to God I'm going to get your chips next time. You're a f***ing bluffer." After claiming he had kings, Wheldon replied, "You didn't have kings." "I had f***ing kings," repeated Turk. "Every time you raise I'm going to come over the top. I promise. I'm going to get your chips."

Wheldon now on 75,000.

Success for sponsor Graham Wheldon!

With one player limping, there was a raise to 800, and then a second min-raise to 1,600 from Alan Stearn. Andy Johnson (late position), Wheldon (big blind) and one other all called, leading to a four-way two spades flop. Johnson led the betting with 4,000, which was check-raised to 10,000 from Wheldon. A dwell of epic proportions (Ashfag Ahmed eventually called the clock) led to Johnson making the call, and then calling all-in for around 11,000 when Wheldon pushed the three diamonds turn. With versus , Johnson was in search of a third nine, which failed to emerge on the river.

Graham Wheldon, now on 55,000.



Andy Johnson making his exit. For a moment, I thought he was going to get to the coffee machine, turn back and pulls the nuts out of his pocket.



My attempt at a cool photo - EPIC FAIL.



goooooo chompy. glad to see this guy busted, what he did v rooks and ryan was out of order.

A calamity of errors on the near table, as Paul Gourlay calls Jeff Sharpe's preflop raise all in and accidentally turns over aces prematurely. "I thought he had me covered," he pleads. Anyhow, the decision is back on Jeff Sharpe, who has the option, but in the face of aces opts for the fold. A few raised eyebrows then reveal that it was only 3,000 more to call, and not the 7,000 that Sharpe initially thought it was. Nevertheless, Gourlay has got away with scooping the pot without risking his aces being beaten and has around 13,000 as a result. "I'd rather take the 13,000 than risk it," admitted Gourlay.

Asmat Ashgar is out. On a three-way flop, he check-raised David Lloyd's 5,000 bet all in for an additional 8,475. Lacking a big stack himself, Lloyd rose from his seat (a seated position must hinder the decision making process) and mulled over his options. After about a minute in the think tank, he made the call with . Ashgar tabled , and failed to improve on the turn and Two Clubs river.

You know, what you'd expect really: stack not too different from last time (18,000), a face like a smacked bottom, and a tired posture that suggests he has been courting all week.

I seem to recall someone requesting a count for Tam MacDonald earlier. Well, if Tam equals Thomas, then the chap seated here next to Vince Calenti should be our man. He's currently on 54,000, most, if not all, of his chips coming from an aggressive player who called bets on every street of a 2-4-5-2 board before raising on the king river. His timing on this occasion, however, was wayward, as MacDonald had A-2 and quickly made the call, which was easily enough to beat 6-4 which had ultimately been turned into a very expensive bluff.

Speaking of Vince, he's not very popular after eliminating the "norkage at the table". He did have aces though, so I think he can be forgiven.

An amusing hand took place on Table 6. With multiple limpers before him, one of whom was Neil Channing, Simon Wickenden moved all in for what appeared to be around 5,000. The action found its way back to Channing, who clearly had something to chew on, but feared he might be dominated. "Are we racing?" he asked. "Does it feel like we're racing?" "I think I have two over cards." "I'll be very happy if I'm racing." "You seem very relaxed about it all."

Although on the receiving end of the Spanish Inquisition, Wickenden remained clam under questioning and conceded little. Perhaps frustrated not to have garnered more information, Channing folded pocket eights. You could tell that he was eager to see his opponent's hole cards, but Wickenden was having none of it and simply smirked as he mucked his hand. However, as he threw in his hand, the cards hit the arm of the dealer and flipped over to reveal Big Slick, and all that Fonz-like coolness that Wickenden had showcased previously simply vanished in the matter of seconds, much to the amusement of the rest of the table and your blogger who had been watching intently.
