[TightEnd]

Julian Thew opens to 400 at 75-150 in the cut off

Stuart Rutter 1,100 on the button

Thew 2,700 4 bet

Rutter a big ponder, and eventually a slow and measured call

flop 

Thew leads for 2,300

Rutter passes with a lopsided smile

Thew seems quite proud of himself and asks Stuart if he can "show the reporter"

Rutter agrees and I am shown 

Julian advises Stuart not to read the updates for a while

[elBlandie]

I'm currently on the toilet at home. Feeling very nervous. Can't wait to play in this big competition later. I hope I win.

keep that kinda stuff to yourself mate.

small ball poo?

Doesn't sound very small ball from where I am sitting

Flush.

Enough of the backdoor puns!!

We didn't even get the 'floating' one in there... Sigh.

Stephen Brown




Brown is sharing a table with a now micro-stacked Tony Cascarino

I tap Tony on the shoulder and get a look that immediately tells me I have made a mistake redolent of a haphazard referee who has just booked Tony on his Old Den stomping grounds

"e-e-exc-u-u-u-se me, Mr Cascarino" I simper "did you lose a big pot?"

"No" comes the barked reply "lost every pot, haven't won one all day"

The previously bluff happy Stpehn Lovatt

and the tournament veteran, the wily and very LAGgy Allan McLean

[TightEnd]

Gareth Williams 800 from 3,900

Allan Mclean 2,400 in the small blind

Carlo Citrone calls in the big blind

Williams all in

both call

A board of 5-7-10-9-3 is checked down and Citrone 2-2 holds against K-J and A-J to knock Williams out

[TightEnd]

Peter Whitehouse wins a big pot off Carl Williams

4-4 v K-K on 10-7-4, Whitehouse limp calls, pre and check raises the flop, calling the shove

Whitehouse doubles up

[TightEnd]

Paul Jackson opens

I have been hanging around the vicinity of the Burland/Trigg/Jackson table for its obvious potential

So far I've seen the three above take it in turns to win a series of small pots with just over min-raises pre and not much resistance pot


Anyway, Jackson opens to 325 at 75-150

Aaron Barry calls in the small blind

they check a  board

Barry check calls 400 on 

Barry check calls 700 on 

Barry's  good as Jackson declares he has "nine high"

Gareth Williams 800 from 3,900

Allan Mclean 2,400 in the small blind

Carlo Citrone calls in the big blind

Williams all in

Does this man analyse poker for a living?

How much did carlo have at the start of 22 hand Tighty?

[TightEnd]

Ian Riggs 350 UTG

A call from Richard Sutcliffe

Steve Jelinek 1,150 on the button with Dem Aces

Mark Wastaff all in small blind 11,500 with Queens

Riggs folds playing 14,000. After the hand he insists he has folded Kings to general incredulity from the table

Anyway, Aces hold, Jelinek knocks out Wagstaff

Jelinek feels a bit hard done by. Now playing 27,000 he feels he was on for the treble up rather than just the double if Riggs indeed did have Kings

[Chompy]

How much did carlo have at the start of 22 hand Tighty?

Always in front
