The EWSOP Vienna - Day One LIVE UPDATE

[AlrightJack]

Mickey is now down to 3,000 after a succession of bad beats. Sixes into a flush, a player chasing with A6 on a J high board to Mickey's KJ and AQ on a Q55 board, yep, the other guy had a 5.....we think he is a German.

And speaking of TV stars – we had a little fight over who would get the Big Questions – “What are you doing?  Why do you have laptops?  What exactly is this Live Tournament Update?”  I tried to get the beagle some TV time, but he wasn’t having any of it… I reckon he’s only bluffing when he says he wants to be on the telly.

Been having a few problemettes with the connection - I think since AlrightJack and Snoopy are whizzing along, I must be drawing the wifi short straw or something.  Dratted technology.

Woody Deck has tripled up and is now the chip leader......

[Jim R]

And here is the 'next door' that I refer to.

'Golden Time' where you are assured to have a 'golden time'.

Why?

Well, the blacked out windows should give you a clue.

 

I'd just like to clarify that NO-ONE has ventured next door.

In fact, forget I even mentioned that it's there.

There is NOTHING there. Just fields.

And for all my female fans (yep, both of you) I shall NOT be rambling through those fields.

So, DON'T worry.

According to Thomas K they do not know exactly how many runners there are yet, but it is somewhere in the region of 333-336.

I'm not sre I'd want to venutre into the field anyhow.

I had a quick look and there seem to be a fair few heffers.

James Poker Poka Browning is here as well.

[Jim R]

are Rob Chubbs and nick whiten all playing today or tomorrow ?

Just been circling the floor getting little 'portraits,' as I like to call my amateurish snaps, of individuals you'll recognise.  Now it's resize and Photo Round! 

Tikay can't believe the clock - "We've been playing a whole hour of 25 - 50, and there's still a half hour to go!"  Such is the nature of a 90 minute clock...

Also, Texas Jonny Hewston's early 16,000 stack came in the majority from an  smacking an all-heart flop at the same time as another guy with a littler flush.

Everyone plays at the same time Kiv.

[snoopy1239]

There are some nice looking dealers here.

If you're good, I'll see if I can muster up a few sneaky snaps.
