Is Vitaly Lunkin the guy with two bracelets and $6m in live tournament winnings who has played the $50,000 HORSE and quite a few high roller events in his time? His Hendon Mob shows a min cash in the 30/30 series at the Manchester Grosvenor so I guess it could be.

Blimey. I'll try & find out in a bit, but it seems probable.

Yes it is one and the same. Such a nice gentleman too. Took the cash game lads 4 weeks to find oit who he was then when they found out their game sorta changed 🤣

Seems like this is the Crusha from Russia, Vitali Lumkin
Well we have at last managed to record two V Blog things (Day 1A & Day 1B) & Sam has gone away to edit & do stuff with them.
Then he'll put them on You Tube & we'll get them on here too.
They are a bit rushed, but feel free to flame away.
I'm at my hotel & will now toddle off to the 235. Play starts at 1pm.
Players are now getting seated & play is due to commence at 1pm sharp. Ish.
MAN OVERBOARD
Groggy is OUT.
Lost a flip against HWSNBN (He Who Shall Not Be Named) aka RunLike****
Palace Bloke gets the Aces & gets paid big time.
Crusha from Russia goes in the tank before making a huge call to double up.
Asked what he thought of the Russian High Roller double Bracelet Winner, Craig described him as "weak, and a nit".
Our Russian friend, at the far end of the table.
Here he is, HWSNBN, still smiling. He has no shame.
Just prior to his exit, Groggs (white ladies jumper, spectacles) far end of table.
Here's our Rose, in seat 1.
If there was ever a characteristic CraigCU12 pose, it's this;
