James Akenhead certainly has been delat more than his share of premium hands today. He got all his chips in with pocket queens against Tommy Vedes.
The preflop action started with a raise to 355,000 by Vedes that Akenhead re-raised to 975,000. This was the second time in short succession that Akenhead had re-raised Vedes preflop. That may have factored into Vedes' decision to shove all in, having Akenhead well covered. Akenhead gave only short thought before calling for his last 4.0 million with . Vedes showed down .
There was no help for Vedes on a board of . After paying off Akenhead, Vedes tumbled to 4.5 million. Akenhead is back up to 10.0 million after a rough start to the day.

Agreed - I am in, Venetian deepstacks and cheering on a Brit. Looking at firled he clearly is one of the class acts here - only played opposite him twice from memory and from what I recall, class player and a nice guy. Good luck, good luck.
PS - Is poker the only spectator sport where you can get quite hooked on live updates and texts on twitter?

Up to 12m, get it done please.
Almost went to watch the final table last November. Would be good to go there for patriotic reasons.
Roll out the Sex Pistols imo.

Good Luck to James. Really hope he makes the final.
Was following your tweets Karl and retweeted you onto the US Poker Followers.
Didn't see how you busted out but was very impressed with you and James last few days.
Tonight should be a long one with evryone pretty deep stacked.

I think you'll find this is called three-tweeting these days... |
