sigh, messed up my exit hand, even alex martin said so.

Good luck to all friends left in, great tourney, great updates. Me and Jerome had fun yesterday, would like to see him win at, as would all ipoker medium stakes PLO players. GL to Frankie too, not met him before but what a nice fella, grinds like a good un too.

David La Ronde min raises

Jack Allen and Frankie call in the blinds

 

checked to La Ronde who shoves, an overbet, 180,000

Allen folds Q-J off

Frankie then goes into a touch of the Larry Graysons

"Oooh I can't fold. Oh no. I must play to win the tournamnet. Oh no."

He calls, a really big one for him

Palpable tension as a crowded rail of DTD regs lean over from the second tier

with 

La Ronde 

Yikes

turn and river brick for clubs

Frankie goes over 400,000

David La Ronde out 29th

Frankie gets a huge roar

He shakes hands with David, played in fantastic spirit and then rushes over to the other rail by the front door and gives a startled Terry Plummer an enormous kiss on the cheek and a hug

Terry's lucky day

come on buddy

I much prefer this style of updating to the new fangle dangle video feeds because of the reliability issues.  Plus these type of written reports help build the suspense.  I really can't see how DtD don't see this and don't have blonde updating on a permanent basis.

Given that Blonde for many has been one of the best sources of poker updates for many years has there ever been consideration to doing a video feed as an update? Seems to work on AWOP and I would think with the calibre of player who post on here and who are close to the main stakeholder then great analysis could be given.

Prob not the thread for this but my tuppence worth.

Good luck to Red Dog and Alex.  Red Dog for his backers and Alex because I love the honesty and openess of his diary.

Is Red-Dog the same fella that used to bash up Ladbrokes a few years ago?
