Best of luck to all blondes. Eso as a special shout out to take it down!

Bookiebasher done me KK<AA in the latter stages of day 1 last night with about 18 to go, was gutting.

[TightEnd]

We're hitting the break after two levels

376 in and counting

Quite a challenge this, as the media centre is half way up and a decent enough round trip to the action.

Oh for hand held devices, but we'll sort out a system to report a bit quicker soon enough

Great reporting as usual fellas, you'll be fit enough to do the Marathon after running up and down those steps for a few days.

Laurence "rivermanl" Houghton is out and is buying back in tomorrow.

He had qualified with a micro stack (15k) which was still 75bbs but arrived late and blinded down to about 10k before shoving it all in preflop with A-J and getting called by Q-9 of Marios Photiou. Marios hit a 9 on the river to send Laurence to the cash desk.

The occupants of Table 3 are licking their lips after they just saw Albert Sapiano call down to the river with an open ended straight draw, no pair on a board with .

Simon Brooks held and was good when they both checked the river.

[KarmaDope]

And we're back.

Blinds go 150/300-25a.

Hopefully the ante will get the treacle to start moving...

[TightEnd]

Rupinder Bedi 3 bets to 2200 over an open to 900 at 150-300

The big blind flats

The opener shoves 30,000

Call by Rupinder

Fold by the big blind

Opener A-K

Rupinder K-K

7-J-8-4 three spades, and Rupinder has the King of Spades

7 river

Rupinder knocks one out. Now over 90,000 and getting on for double average

[TightEnd]

The correct number of players in so far today is 313.

The previous figure had 80 of tomorrow's in, I gather. Don't know why, but much crouching over laptops resulted in the correct revised figure

Very very high powered 313 field though just look at some of the pics coming next...
