Just watched Rob Yong's interview with Michelle Orpe....a friend of mine, yes herbie I do have a few, texted me saying the ISPT was a failure....I replied an emphatic no!! An expensive project and loss for DTD in  money terms, but it was interesting to hear Rob's views on the overall numbers and delivery of the villae and experience, which I think most people who have attended will all agree has been an undoubted success. And yes Rob had the balls to take this one on.....So without wishing to blow smoke up his arse.....Congrats Rob and DTD as a whole. It looks the final table will contain to big names in poker lets hope a few of the qualifiers snaek in there too....wud be nice if Mickey Wernick got a big pay day after all his troubles!

Mickey knocked out a while ago Pete, but agree Rob has got balls of steel

Jerome Brion raised pre, and Mickey called

Brion flopped a set of fives.

Gwendoline must have a ton of chips now. Any news on who she is / how she got there?

She had AQ v A8 to knock out Albeges

Then JJ v 10-10 all in pre to win another 600,000 and knock a player out

She has 2.2m now

[TightEnd]

Michael Pospiech and Xavier El fassy get it all in

A-Kdd for Michael in the cut off, Xavier QQ in the small blind

A J-3-4-J-7 board doubles Xavier now who immediately chirps his way through the next five minutes....

I sat beside her yesterday and was impressed. She didn't have a huge amount then. She played fairly tight early but then traded on it, reraising pre several times and getting folds there or on the flop. She showed AA once and, as I say, I think she traded on her image to build. I thought then that she could go far in this. Maybe further still...........

Players are now constantly checking the printed sheets with the payouts on, asking friends on the rail how much they have locked up and are discussing pay jumps. We are now down to 35, who are guaranteed at least €6,000 each. Next pay jump is at 27th to €7950. Then onwards to five figures. Average stack is 1,145,848.
