There could be some big points swings in #67, the $10k Dealer"s Choice, which is the last opportunity for points grabbing.

With 61 left, Ashton is 1st, Danzer 3rd, Childwick 4th, Rutter 10th and Chiu 11th, with Ho, Negreanu, Hellmuth and Kelly still going in the bottom half.

Anything could happen - and it probably will.

Yeah, it does, but it"ll be a surprise if anyone scores more than a couple of points.

I thought this was a shot of some homeless tramp who had wandered into the Rio yesterday, but it turned out to be Matthew Ashton.

Such focus; such intensity; such mad staring eyes.

If I ever play against him, he can have my chips. I don"t want to end up in a suitcase.

When #67 resumed today, three of the best mixed games players in the world (Ashton, Danzer and Chidders) occupied positions in the top four for our teams, plus we had several other strong players still in, and I was anticipating it taking me til Christmas to work out who had won the league, such was the plethora of points about to be earned by everyone. Well, I don"t know what went on, but all three were out before the dinner break, making my job a lot easier. They didn"t bubble the final table or even get close - all there were miles away, as were Negreanu, Hellmuth and Ho.

Kelly and Bonomo ( who I missed earlier) got closer, but also fell, so now, with twelve left, Keith from The Office now has the chip lead and we only have Chiu still alive, in tenth place. Rather than the deluge of points I expected, only Barrie will score and, with it being a six-handed final table, he may just get one point. So, the leaders can breathe easily again that no-one is going to ship fifteen or twenty points in this one.

Stephen Chidwick, so hungry from lack of food that he couldn"t wait til the dinner-break for his favourite Lettuce Surprise:

Event 66: $777 LUCKY SEVENS No-Limit Hold'em          


Runners          4462
Paid          468
Final Table          9



Player          Position          Points          
Jason Wheeler           393          1          



Selector          Points
Craig          1


We have no-one remaining in #66, and Jason Wheeler is our only point-scorer that I can see, so that"s a point for Craig. I remember when that meant something.

#64, the online event, has completed, but only about a dozen of the 100 cashers have been identified, and we have none of them, so we"ll have to make do with that unless more details are released. They have indicated that Mercier played, but didn"t cash.

This is the current position in the league if I give Barrie the one point that Chiu has earned so far for cashing. Carl and Steve are tied in the lead on 88 points. Tom F and Barrie are level on 85, followed by Debbie on 82 and George on 81. If Chiu gets to the final table in #67, Barrie will take a one point lead on 89 points. It is probably going to take a final table in the Main for the winner to be anyone other than Barrie, Steve or Carl. We have three prizes, though, so if Chiu comes good, these three will likely take them, sequence still to be determined. If Chiu fails, Barrie and Tom F will probably be fighting it out for third. It"s a hell of a lot of pressure to put on Chiu, but if anyone can hold it together, he"s the man for the job. This is his seventh cash this series, and 70th in total, including five bracelets, so Barrie couldn"t Chiuz a better option. Any further results from the online event could still affect the position, though. If it ends up that some of the online cashers are not identified, I think that any who are should still get their points, even though there is the possibility that another of our players cashed but wasn"t named.

I missed one. Left out Chiu"s cash in #39. What can you do when he cashes in everything he plays? Actually, I blame Carl for not spotting it.

So Barrie is on 86 points.

Event 67:  $10,000 Dealers Choice Championship          


Runners          108
Paid          12
Final Table          6



Player          Position          Points          
David Chiu          9          1          



Selector          Points
Barrie          1


So Chiu reinforces his reputation as one of the cashingest players at the WSOP, but doesn"t quite get to the FT. In fairness, these mixed games can be a bit of a crapchiut.
