    Not a bad start by the lads, Are you getting  help from the other guys or have you been left to fend for yourself Tikay? If you have better slow down & get a coffee

    The other lads are doing exactly what I would want them to - out & about, enjoying themselves.

    Matt Bates chopped the Rio 10pm Tourney again last night.

    Not seen James Foley today yet. He looked crushed last night, but he never once moaned. 

    Thewy, JAKALLY, Dylan, Wayne, Helen & a few others went to Aria & elsewhere yesterday to eat, drink, & gawp.

    Thewy played the 2pm Rio yesterday but lasted....10 minutes.

    Visitors who came to see me at the Media Centre this morning include Thewy, Dylan (never said a word, "not very well"....), JAKALLY, Matt Bates, Sam Bayliss, Dan Pickard, KevMath (the one & only), Warren Lush, & Tatty.

    I just chatted with Teddy Sheringham (on Dan's Table) he's really focussed on this. He has a watch as big as a dinner plate, will try & get a photo later.  
     I think most of the boys plan to play the 2pm Rio today, except Dylan, who is slightly unwell. Over-indulgence unwell.....

    Ist break of the day, the boys have started arriving in the Media Centre.....

    Dan Pickard 220,000 (got his 2xup with his K-K v A-K)

    Sam Bayliss 140,000

    Marc Wright 320,000

    Doubt Matthew of Andrew will come in, so I'll go find them after the break, or if you guys pick up their Tweets, perhaps you can post them up.

    Dan Pickard's 2xup was interesting.

    He had two red Kings. His oppo had A-K, both black.

    The flop came Q-2-3, ALL diamonds. 

    Dan instinctively looked at both hands - "phew, I have the K of diamonds & villain has no diamonds".
     
    Turn - A!

    Dan nearly faints, then realises it is the ACE OF DIAMONDS.

    Four flush, home & hosed.

    Ugh.

    He made a great effort, though, well played him.

    Victoria Coren @VictoriaCoren

    J on the river. I'm out.

    He has JJ! Finally some proper luck in a WSOP main event after all that hard work! Phew.

    FINALLY found a hand! Fairy tale! Raise to 4500 (blinds 1k-2k). Adam Latimer retained to 10,800. I think.... And I'm all in! He thinks...

    Tikay,

    Can we count Dan Picard as Sky Poker so we still have 4 players still running on Day 3 ??

    Still fantastic stuff by all the guys to go this deep.

    Hi guys, thanks for the schedule info etc.

    Dan Pickard? You can include anyone, but as far as I am concerned, yes, absolutely. I have spent some time with him, he is a smashing lad, & I'll update on him as much as the others.
    220,000 last I saw. He seems to have the measure of Teddy Sheringham, but he is oop, so avoiding him mostly.

    Meanwhile......as you know, we have lost Matthew, but of the others.....

    Marc Wright - 270,000. Hard to keep track of his stack, he plays so many hands. He just won quite a big pot, maybe 70,000, but that 270,000 is AFTER that hand. Expect more swings & swongs, he could end today with a million, or busto.
     
    Andrew Wayman - 55,000. Incredible grinding by him, his stack has barely moved in 2 days!

    Sam Bayliss - need to go check, I missed him, sorry.

    James Dempsey   70,000
