Not a hair out of place.

He's almost as photogenic as me. Doesn't quite have my tan though.

Conversation with Iwan Jones:

Iwan: Vicky Coren just gave me a spanking.
Snoopy News: And you're complaining?
Iwan: Well, only in poker terms.

Not to worry though, he doubled up to 5.1k soon after when his all-in was called by Scandieboy.

Board =



Greg Raymer is announcing on the feature table. He seems to be dropping in the odd anecdote too. Stick to ya job, Raymer!

Conversation with foreign female journalist in front.

ME: Could you just pop this plug into your extension please?
HER: Argh! It doesn't fit, it's too big.
ME: I've never had any complaints before
HER: -- stunned silence --
ME: -- Quietly backtrack back to my seat --

Isabelle up to $40,000? Woo-hoo!

It's refreshing to see her off to a strong start. I hope she can relax, play great poker, and absorb those inevitable bad beats.  

FYI, I should point out that I'll be changing my screenname here soon. (But not today.) I have left Card Player to move over to PokerPages, so Rolf will be passing the baton to me to cover next week's World Poker Tour event at the Commerce Casino in Los Angeles. When I change my screenname, I'll let you know, because I'll definitely still follow your coverage of the European events! (Until the day when I can work alongside you and COVER a European event.)

And Snoops ... That's Hilarious! I hope she wasn't American -- our women are usually more aware of innuendo like that.

Why is Julian in Fancy dress, with "Doctor Who" cosutme?

[snoopy1239]

Okay, cracking little hand to report now.

Elky, a big online player and somewhat of a table bully, raises preflop.

Jen smoothcalls with .

Flop = Ah

Elky checks, Jen bets, Elky calls.

Turn =

Elky bets 700, Jen reraises, Elky calls.

Bown pants time. (professional term)

River =

Elky checks...

Jen checks (although that river bet must have been tempting)


Jen's threes in fact take the pot. Elky held a missed flush draw.

Phew.

Jen up to 17k.

Wooooo. I predicted a cash finish for the blonde lass. Goooo Jen!

Great poker Jen... She's got Balls (so to speak)

Any chance of an update on Julian Gardner or Martin Green please?

Thanks!

[CardPlayerBJ]

Go Jen!

Way to have faith in your threes ... my biggest worry on the river might have been a middle pair for my opponent (like 8-8 or 7-7). Take that $17,000 and make it grow even more!
