WSOP $10,000 PLO: Funking for Trumper and Pleno

[Tal]

I forgot to report that Bubble Boy was the chap next to Simon Trumper who was wearing the headphones.

Pleno has north of half a million now.

33 remain.

[RED-DOG]

Pleno - which I have now had to add to my 'phone's dictionary to stop it autocorrecting to Pliny, Planet or Porno (seriously, in what set of circumstances would these three words be the top three suggestions?

You could be introducing and ancient Roman philosopher to some of the finest saucy carvings in the world.

[Tal]

I left them all to it when the level ended and everyone went on a 20 minute break.

Tired and hungry isn't a good combination for railing, so I have retired for the evening.

Hopefully, we have a great sweat tomorrow.
