    This is Joan. Joan is from Dublin and she travels round the world as a freelance poker dealer. All the exotic places. The Bahamas, Australia, Barcelona, Vienna, Nottingham

    She challenged me to take a nice photograph of her, something which I apparently have never achieved

    Until now

    Does that make it a straight heads-up battle to spin £500 into £50k?

    I know there will be lots more runners by the time all is said and done, but do they have a minimum entry number for events in order to mitigate the worst case scenario for overlay?

    Or would the event potentially kick off with heads up and just wait for the late reg players to join the table(s)?

    meant to be ten runners to start it

    when 115 of you arrive on Thursday a lot of you will be interviewed by Laura Cornelius, who has the microphone and 15 cameramen in tow, already

    Here's the background. Still time to get the media training necessary to kick-start that career in front of the camera

    "well, um, you know, i had Aces and, um, they re-raised, er and, um I got it in and, er, well, um..."

    "Dude, I sand bagged this donkey, when I spiked trip kings on the turn. I check raised him all in, and he got felted."

    I mean, who would call Laura a dude!

    The Omaha started a 1pm so the room has now filled up with the riffling of chips across three different UKPC Six Max Events

    a £500 Omaha guaranteed at £50,000 on a Tuesday afternoon always looked one of the shakier guarantee risks of the week, and it has started with 24 runner who I have listed below

    late entry is until 6.40pm and one re-entry is allowed so hopefully we will get close. i will keep an eye on this competition too, though probably not tikay until he gets down below 10x bb finds Aces double suited and decides to play a hand
    22 1 Sean Belton
    22 2 Leon Loukaides
    22 3 Salvatore Marotta
    22 4 John Burberry
    22 5 Anthony Kendall
    22 6 Chin Chai Koh
    23 1 Jeraint Hazan
    23 2 David Lloyd
    23 3 Oliver Cooper
    23 4 Richard Hawes
    23 5 James Atkin
    23 6 Richard Simmonds
    31 6 Aleksandrs Golubevs
    32 1 Paul Jackson
    32 2 Gianni Marotta
    32 3 Brian Ford
    32 4 Andrew Garland
    32 5 Paul Zimbler
