Its OFFICIAL Tikay needs to learn how to speak German. He just interviewed a pro player called Torsten Brinkmann......... have a watch, its a little awkward http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A8vgKM4_5Ok Posted by Sky_Claire
Any interview conducted in a powder yellow polo shirt is going to be awkward.

lol its so we don't lose him as he's a bit old and doddery
Came off the first break on 31k. Then it went a bit pear-shaped. Straight vs a bigger straight, had to make a big fold on a river where he was sure he was behind, then got a gent to put most of his stack in on a K-high flop with K-9 vs Reds' A-A. River 9.
Ouch. Really ouch.
Julian is down to 17k as well, and he's got super high-stakes player Chau Giang on his table to his immediate right. At least he has position.
Where is Orford when you need him? Tikay interviews Julian during the break and suddenly disappears off camera and reappears....... always the professional
How many sky players have either become crippled or gone out with the rockets this year. With the entries if you run in day 1a and blow it is it possible to restart on one of the other days?
Rockets definitely haven't been kind to us this year, that's for sure.
Chip counts:
Julian - 7.6k Beaneh - 32k ish
Mr Thewy still hasn't got any real traction on his table. Chau Giang to his right has managed to get some of the table's chips, so it's going to uphill for Julian. Still early enough though - 54 minutes at 150/300, so just over 25BBs...

What happened
Just watched his brk interview and he was back up to 29k
Some more pictures up on the gallery, including Beaneh, Julian and some RnB singer called Nelly...
Never heard of him, but Tikay says he's well street.
Oh, and there's Shannon Elizabeth too, who I am going to admit is far more attractive in person than in any photo you've ever seen. Including this one...

We'll ask him on the break. It's a bit tricky to get exact details at the table, and you obviously don't want to ask the wrong question. Not that I imagine for one second Jules would mind. What he did tell me was that he'd been missing flops a lot of the time. We'll see what he has to say in about 45 minutes or so.
Oh no its catching on.. first Poker News refer to Tikay as a mixture of Ali G and Parkinson in his interviews now a Swedish Pro player does....... see more here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KM9u8kKMN-I

Reds is out.

Beaneh is still on around the 30k mark.
Time to rally the troops...
COOOOOOOOOOME ON YOUUUUUUUU BLUUUUUUUUUUUUUUES!
Reds is with us in the Media Centre and Andrew walks in, introducing himself.
"Hi Redmond, how are you doing?"
"I'm good thanks."
"What are you doing here? I thought you were playing today..."
"I was."
Redmond took it in the right spirits, Andrew looked a tiny bit sheepish. Makes it worse after he cruised to Day 2.
