with 25m in play and blinds 60-120k the average stack is 60xbb deep
and it has played like it
not too many big confrontations, and in the absence of "coolers" the chips have passed around, the odd 3 bet pre-flop, the odd raise ona flop but nothing too dramatic for any of the players
in ten minutes time the blinds go 80-160k
leigh wiltshire is still the chip leader
it is my understanding that deals are not permitted. unless we see Aces, kings, queesn, ace-king in the same hand or two people hitting a flop this is going to be a while
stevie devlin from omagh abi khaitan from london leigh "mild mannered" "only got one chocolate lab, the other two are black labs" "hello jen" wiltshire three handed with £220,000 to play for...... Posted by SPT
