Ladies and gents, the bubble has just this second burst. It wasn"t obvious exactly who the unlucky player was; we"ll hopefully know in the next few minutes.

One player who has unfortunately not made it, though, is Praz - he went out a few places before the money. He said he came back today with a perfectly adequate 60k, and was up and down a bit, and then tightened up when he got moved to a crazy-raisey table. Eventually he found A-K and raised, but ran into Rumit going nuts with pocket Fives. He called him all in but the Fives held up, and he was short. Eventually, with the antes biting at his heels, he moved in with J-9 suited but an A-Q called and took him out. Unlucky, man.

Also OUT, judging by the presence of one Mr Donev (below) in his seat, is Mr Paul Testud.

On the still-in upside though, Rumit is now pretty comfortable. Also still in are Keith Camel Hawkins, Karl Mahrenholz, Soxy, Nick Gibson and Tony Bloom.



Djinn:
Recently empty seats are those of:
Petersen
Pinter
Alan Smurfit

danafish:
Some interesting chip stacking techniques for you. Not sure that flat spreading technique is fooling anyone.

Afternoon ladies, firstly I wanted to say a very well done on the updates.  They have obviously been difficult & trying under the circumstances that Holland Casino have put the press under - you guys still come up trumps!

Secondly please could you provide my lazy ass at home with updates and pics of Praz, Karl, Michael Martin and Table 17, seat  8 Chris Sokrati (who is SOXY on blonde).  That"s only if you mangage to get within 100 yards of the players of course....Thanks.

You are too kind.  But since flattery often galvanizes us into action, here are some early hands going down on table Praz/Karl/Camel/Norinder:

I saw Karl take down a couple of smallish pots (although the blinds are now 700/1,400 ante 200, about to go up too) before losing a pretty big one to Chip Monster Micke Norinder - there were at least six white 5k chips floating around in there by the river.  Couldn"t, of course, see the cards.

Then Praz got involved with his LHS neigbour Donev in a blind vs. blind hand...
Flop:  7s js 8d  No idea what happened here.
Turn:  8c  Check to Donev who bet 5k...call from Praz.
River:  ad1  Now check once more to Donev, who puts in a bet of 15k.  This represents just under half of Praz"s stack, it looks like, so this is a big decision.  Praz stares at the rather eccentric-looking Donev (big earphones, shiny sun-visor thing, card protector in shape of a spider which looks horribly realistic) who retreats with his head down on his arms and just stays like that.  Praz talks to him, even prods him, but no reaction. 
"If I fold, will you show?" he entreats.
No reaction.  Praz looks like he"s inspecting what"s on Donev"s ipod - obviously not liking what he sees he passes  jd :2h: face up, and is rewarded with a flash of the  9d in Donev"s hand, possibly, one imagines, joined to a Ten...
