Got the shirt - thanks. But I was kinda hoping Claire would give it to me. Sigh....

And just 30 seconds ago, ActionJack came into the Press Room to tell me he has busted out, he ran into AA two hands in 3. Shame, he was looking good.

But the good news comes from Nottingham Nick Gibson, who has a whopping 252k.....!

[tikay]

Paul Zimbler, 28k

Garry Bush, 60k. His chips are nailed to the table.

Sam Fahra 120k

Thanks Tikay - if you bump into Nick in the break, tell him I'm sooo glad we agreed the 10% while at the Ladbrokes pi*s up earlier this week !!
Took two days to get over the hangover, but I'm sure he wil remember !!

Barry Neville - I can't found him, or hear him, but I am sure he is still there. Jen is out on patrol at the moment, maybe she will find him.

Here are some numbers gleaned from the reduced tables (it's all looking about on schedule)

Barry Neville  40,000
Andy Black   70,000  (and nearly a fight with a drunk guy hassling him from the rail)
Peter Roche  30,000
Garry Bush   75,000
Neil Channing   40,000
Joe Beevers  43,000  (on the TV table so a bit hard to see the stack for the cameras)
Nick Persaud   68,000
Robert Binelli    105,000
Howard Lederer  60,000
Henry Campbell  40,000 (His double-up shout and William Hill hat attracted my attention - he told me "I just lost half my stack a minute ago,"  "So, back to where you started?"  I offered,  "No.")

[Djinn]

I had just found Tiffany Williamson when she was calling another person all-in.  This time it was the classic QQ (her) vs AK (him).  The Queen on the flop put her mind at rest ("thankyou" she said)  and the King on the river was a kind of afterthought.  She now has around 215,000, and a camera crew at close hand.

[Djinn]

Howard Lederer and Robert Binelli in a bit of a pot just now - it looks from the size of the pre-flop pot that Robert had raised and Lederer moved all-in.  After a lengthy dwell Robert passed and held on to the rest of his 100k-ish stack and Lederer looks more healthy on around 60,000.  I couldn't count the chips too accurately as the no-lingering-press rule meant that I had already used up most of my time staring at Binelli's hat.

[Djinn]

Shane's last name is Bartholomew and he seems to be holding steady on 170k

[tikay]

Burnley John 55k - not seen a hand all day.

Barry Neville 70k

Achilleas is sleeping comfortably with 59k. He just ran a beautiful bluff from the SB, & forced the BB to put his pocket 9's down. Way to go!
