[TightEnd]

Nobody told her there would be days like this.

Strange days Indeed

[TightEnd]

After a minor accident that lost him a chunk of his stack Paul Jenkinson 3 bets a Jay White open from the small blind, and White 4 bet-sets him in

Jenkinson calls with alacrity with Aces, and is up against White's 2-2 for the double

The dealer places the cards either side of where the flop will be

Ever helpful Mitch Johnson says "Quack Quack"

and is rewarded by a 2 in the door for White to knock jenkinson out and send him to the re-entry desk....

[TightEnd]

Dan Ward opens to 1025 and Mark Alridge calls next to act

Nick "ubiquitous" Crisp shoves his last 5000 on the button

After some thought, Ward moves all in to isolate and Aldridge folds

Ward  

Crisp  

  flop for the sweat to be enhanced

  turn

 

Its a Golden Wonder for Crisp who doubles up

[Tal]

I suppose if he hadn't doubled up, you'd have said "...who skips to the cash desk"?

More Geek Chic Gascoigne pics, please.

Good luck to all the blondes playing...

[TightEnd]

A run down of the 8 tables

Who is with who?


1

Mitch is playing 80,000 and was moved to the table of early chip leader Ed McCarthy. The only other player I recognise on the table is Pokerversity, Will Mitchell of University Poker circles

2

Table Honeybadger. The man himself is in loquacious mood and he sits in 1 while typhoontrev and Sulphur Man are in seat 5. Round the back Mark Aldridge and Anthony Arlott wait

3

On the middle tier Tom Ambler and Callum Morgan have been battling most of the evening. Both have above average stacks

4

A good one as in seat 1 autobetkev raises into Nick Hicks and greekjack who are themselves out of position to Liam Batey and Paul Jenkinson. Of the five players I know, Hicks has unobtrusively garnered the bigest stack

5

Stato sits playing scrabble on his IPhone. Imagine the scene, you are at home on a Friday night and random select an opponent on your phone. Stato1 is his name. About 400 points behind and 13 Stato bingos later, you'd go to bed rather deflated. Anyway, I digress.

This is the table of Barry Neville, Mark SMith and Skalie. Mark Smith has well over 100,000

6

Alan Stearn is seat 5, Billy Ngo seat 6 and the ever patient Eso Kral waits in seat 6, no doubt a touch frustrated that Billy gets first dibs at Alan's button rasies

7

Ian Gascoigne is ins eat 3, ipod on, impervious to the very active style of Simon Deadman two to his left. It appears to me that Ian is in a Sibelius or Debussy mood. I hear no strains of Black Sabbath or Rainbow out of the earphones.

In seats 7 and 9 teo of the chip leaders Andrew Probyn and Jay White tangle.

8

On the last table Lee Williamson is also i-podded but is playing over 100,000 on a tabloe including the voluble bluff Northern chap Richard Pearson and Raj Dhiri, who always has it.


There are 63 of 88 left at the end of Level 8

Average is 47,000

blinds about to go 400-800


Mark Smith has 150,000 and is chipleader

We play 12 levels tonight
