is the new feature table as we have restarted.

Rob Yong is advertising a £10k sitdown game in the VIP lounge with Flushy - WSOP champion as the main attraction.

He's now calling Flushy to reception "James Dempsey to reception, your mother is on the phone!"

With regard to payouts, dont know whether this had been covered on the blog already, but the DTD site says 27 paid......they usually round it to a number divisible by 9 (9 on a table) first spot is £77k ....27th is £1.5k

Toby Lewis has just done me a favour by knocking out Nicodemos Protopapas, if only so I don't have to type that name out hundreds of times today!

There is a £500 high-roller one day event starting in about 8 minutes. Nik Persaud, JP Kelly, Middy spotted among the players waiting...

The cleverly named high roller which is 1/2 the buyin of the main event

Does anyone have sound on the live feed? tried it on two macs with different browsers and there is no sound?

no sound but enjoying the feed. ronaldo is playing some good stuff. foxy is being the fox tho

awesome poker from foxy...who else could get ronaldo to laydown an over pair to the board with a re raise on the river.

I see your point but the High Roller is 5 x todays buy in, so for small punters a chance to play a bigger tourney against some big names, shame there are not more runners!

update on danny laming and sam grafton if possible.

It's a High Roller Super50 6-max.

In other words, haven't got a clue why!

Danny Laming has 130k.

Sam Grafton Harry Potter has about 130k and is rather loud...

The last hi roller tourney i was around was at the black belt london live.....think it had 22-25 runners was over in less than 2 hours and they did a 5 or 6 way chop, was a farce of a tourney, if this one was £2 or £2.5k as it shud be, how many runners would be in it??? lucky to get 20 imo so credit to DTD they seem to know their market.... looked like the £250k guarantee on the MC was gonna have a 20k overlay at one point, but they met that. The guarantees attract the players and the £1/4 mill for the GP in Aug, for a 60 euro buy in, is phenomenal!

The camera's not working properly. Awesome.

As I headed over to table 14, I spotted cambridgealex had been moved to Table Langshaw/Jack/Perrins/Sheamus/Ferguson. He was in a hand with Kate Langshaw, after Kate bet 7k on a board. Alex raised to 20k and Kate tank-folded.

2 hands later (or the next hand, not entirely sure, I turned away for a bit) Langshaw was again betting 7k on the turn. This time the board was and her opponent, Vach Nankoosing, raised to 17k. This time Langshaw raised to 100k and Nankoosing called all in with for a MASSIVE draw. Langshaw had one of his outs, the , as well as the and they held on the river to eliminate Nankossing and send Langshaw to 300k.
