    Okay update from first break....

    Browndog -20k
    Dntb - 20k
    Ben Nutter - 14k
    Wil Brewin - 12k
    Dylan - 12k

    Have a hand through from Dylan he laid down pocket 9s on a 5 4 7 2 board - he folded the turn, it was 3 ways, one guy had a set of 5's - the other guy, a set of 4's......Was a 24k pot so the pocket 5's guy must be pretty big now......

    Nice lay down from the Welshman - Have replied asking about starting stacks and blind levels - but seems the guys are going pretty well.

    Just woke up ! 3 updates here's the summary....

    I think this is a Welsh word...'tamping' ? -  I guess it means fuming in English, as Dylan is "tamping" after he gets it all in pre flop against the big stack with pocket Queens, v pocket 5's - and the guy binks his 2 outer.

    Would have had 34k if held....ouch !

    Browndog 35k, Will 25k, Dan 17k at the dinner break....

    Dylan and Nutter entered a side event for....£110 .....alongside ChirpyChip !!

    DOHH

    Nice updates Doh lol!! Yes "tamping" is a Welsh word for "fuming", and yes I was tamping when he made the call with 5's or 4's whatever it was - but hey that's poker - I wanted the call when I saw his cards and unfortunatley lady luck wasn't on my side today :( The event itself is pretty soft to be fair, some great players but a load of weaker opponents who have never played live before which was evident with some of the play I witnessed today. Dan somehow managed to get down to 7K at one point (how he didn't lose his stack i don't know) he flat called every street I think when he had KK on a Q high board - villain had AA!!

    Myself, I thought I played very well - made some big lay downs - especially the 99 hand - I was the aggressor and lost 4K in total but could havve been a lot worse if I hadn't slowed down on the turn and folded. My 7set also knocked 4/5K off my stack - the guy checked call me on flop and turn and when he checked the river with a big grin on his face - I said to him "you have JJ or QQ in your hand don't you" - his smile went and he went as red as a beetroot, so I check and see the QQ :( Grinded all the way through, and eventually found a spot to get 5K with 10 10 on a 865 2 board - I raise pre flop 2 from the cut off, button flats, after flop I bet 1.2K - he flats, on turn I bet 1.8K and he re raises to 4K - I tank for a minute and shove the rest of my stack in and he instantly folds :) Won a couple of other 1/2K pots - just targeted the inexperienced ones (if they hit the flop they bet and check when they missed) so took a few of them to get me back to 17K - and then the QQ hand... I was the button in this hand - UTG raises to 1.2K, guy next to me flat calls and I re raise to 3.8K, UTG folds, guy next to me re raises me to 8K (He had over 50K i think), I think the hand through and the plays he had made in other hands and decide that he hasn't got AA or KK, hard to describe how I knew that - it was easy at the time but I can't describe the reads I had on this player - anyway I shove the rest of my 17K in the middle fully expecting him to fold and I would happily take what was in the middle (around 10K of the other players money including the Binds) anyway the guy tanks it and his response to me was " I feel lucky mate and I think you have AK so Im ahead" and calls with his 44's or 55's - I don't remember - 4 on the flop - goodnight me - 36K pot that would have got me through to Day 2 easily - but hey ho, that's the way it goes.

    Back tommorrow to rail the other guys and hope they can go deep into the cash :)
