Nice post BTW Dan. I am sure your suport for the other players will be greatly appreciated. Now go and find a British bar to watch the world cup final in, chill out and relax.
Is Will Brewin playing today? How is he getting on? Posted by BrownnDog
Good shout, as I'd clean forgot - we interviewed him at the previous break, immediately after the Jan Heitmann interview. I'm not sure it's been uploaded yet though.
He was doing nicely at the time - 70k, I think.
He's moved back from London to Bristol, now, so I was in like a shot, & invited him to SPT Swansea. He said he'd do his best, especially if "the boyz" would be there. Affirmative, I replied, so fingers crossed.
I really can't remember if Attila has uploaded it yet, though, & she's popped along the corridor for Dinner with Mandy, so I'll let you know when she returns.
On a seperate note, I was rather hoping to play the $200 Deepie at 1pm tomorrow in The Rio, but I now gather it's not running tomorrow, pfft. One day off all week, & they cancel the Tourney! Looks like the 7pm at Caesars, then.
In Response to Re: WSOP, Day 2B Live Update - Dan & Sue. : Nice pics tikay. The Simpsons guy does the voices of Apu, Chief Wiggum, Moe and a few others. It's definitely the guy. Re the blurry pics, if you're using a Samsung ST60/ST61 try increasing the ISO, since you aren't using the flash ISO 400 isn't quick enough try 800. Take some trial photo's of Claire, one pic of Claire for the whole visit isn't enough. ;-) Posted by Machka
I can't recall how many started today, but there appears to be about 1,500 left, with 1 hour left to play.
I may have misjudged it, but I sense the attrition rate is higher than expected. Which, in turn, will push up the end of Day Two average stack. But unless Sue has an accident - always possible in NLH - she's still be well north of average.
Vanessa Rousse seems to have built up quite a stack. Jason Mercier is cruising just above average, Jon Kalmar is about average. Jason is sat to the immediate right of Jon Kalmar. Water & oil don't mix well.
Thanks Tikay! You work too hard!! Ye I hope you both have a thoroughly relaxing day off, you really deserve it. Posted by BrownnDog
Thanks Lewis.
But it's more hard fun than hard work. I'd not swap it for the world.
I confess, however, to be a little under the weather tonight, I seem to have "air-conditioning chest", & I can't wait to get to bed. The last time I was unwell was in about 1956, so I guess I'm due.
Sad to report, but it's a wrap for Sky_Mandy, who, down to 12 Bigs, shoved with Eights & got looked up, entirely reasonably I guess, by QJ, which got there.
We have just recorded a piece to camera in the Amazon Room, followed by an Exit Interview with Mandy, & both pieces will be up on the usual site tonight.
There will also be a close-of-play piece with Sue, I expect, & that'll go up tonight, too.
Our Video Page only seems to have capacity for 50 Videos, & we are nearing 60 now, so Attila is having to cull a few. But I imagine they will remain available on the "Sky Poker You Tube Channel" indefinitely.
It's also likely that they will appear on another major poker news Site on Monday, I gather.

Keep it going Sue.....you are doing great.

press MENU
using the circle with OK in the middle - press UP/DOWN to select FUNCTIONS then press OK
press UP/DOWN to select ISO then press OK
it's probably on ISO AUTO, use LEFT/RIGHT to select 800 and OK
you probably have to press MENU again to exit the menus.
Remember to switch it back to ISO AUTO when you're not taking photo's inside or they will be grainy.
You may remember me from winning your bad joke comp - "what did the fish say when he swam into a wall?" - "****!"
By the way, to fit into the shirt you sent me is my current challenge!
On the mode wheel turn it so the HAND with DIS is at 9 o'clock. Take a test picture to make sure it doesn't fire the flash!

Sue just told me she mis-counted her chips at the Dinner-Break - she had 122k, not 132k.
If it were me, I'd have claimed 700,000.

Her current count is 117k.

Fine effort from the lass, though.

They are now playing the last 5 hands of the day.*
* The clock is always stopped with 10 mins to go, & then they all play 5 hands, to stop any dilly-dallying nonsense.
Sue ended the day with 98,900.
Sunday is a Rest Day, play resumes on Monday, when Flights 2A & 2B combine.
The Blinds will be 500/1,000/100 for 1 hour, before increasing to 600/1,200/100.
We will have three players in Day Three, being......
Sue - 98,900
Tony - 51,200
Guy - 41,200
Most satisfactory.
Goodnight all, from Claire & myself, & enjoy your Sunday.
xx
