And, after 32.5 hours, they were down to 2...

And needless to say, a mammoth chip lead is held by Inspecta.  Snoopy's just getting a look at Morty's stack, from which we can deduce the proportion of Inspecta's stack he's got (anyone got a calculator?)

[snoopy1239]

Approximate chip counts:

Inspecta -- 2,300,000
Mortyblack -- 700,000

With just 2 left, the blinds are now 12k/24k (4k)

any deals done?

Enormous Make or Break Hand News Now (Well, Break News):

Johnny Lodden (small blind) and Inspecta (the button) got 245k in preflop, and saw on the flop.
Johnny bet out 200k.  "All in," says Inspecta, immediately.
A long think, and then I believe Johnny said something like "gamble" but it could have been something Norwegian and called all-in!

Johnny showed: 
Inspecta showed:

Turn: 
River:  !  "Sick!" I heard from more than one location, and

Johnny Lodden is straight flushed out in 3rd spot, for $36,000

That is SICK! though... VNH!!! not often you see a straight flush at a final table...

any deals done?

Well, we were of the general opinion that Johnny Lodden probably wouldn't have bothered with a deal (although if we can track him down we'll ask him).  And now, there is such a huge lead for Inspecta that there's no compulsion there either...

But whereas at most big events in the UK deals have to be declared (they affect ranking points etc) over here that's probably not the case.

is this not a euro ranking event then?

After calling a 120k bet on the turn with a board of , Mortyblack makes a very cagey check (after Inspecta also checks) on the ace river.

His hand? A-9

Inspecta mucked before he even showed his top pair.

From what I've been told, Johnny really isn't in it for the money and would probably snub talk of a deal.

Also, Mortyblack has been lowish chipped for a while now. It's a lot easier to split when everyone's got the same.

[Djinn]

It looks like Morty Black is fighting back -

Perhaps 1 million to Inspecta's 2-and-a-bit million now... pictures of them both coming.  Apologies about the darkness of most of our pictures, but neither of our digital cameras seems to like this room.  We need a snazzy camera with a massive zoom lens like that Kildalen guy.

[Djinn]

Here's Morty, far from out of this tournament.  Well, you can't get further from out than still in, and heads up...unless you're chip leader.  Oh, I've gone and confused myself.
