Good aftern0on and welcome to Bolton

Bolton wasn"t exactly showing off its charms to me as I made my way this morning through driving horizontal rain from hotel to casino

Once here though, wow! This is one of the nicest UK Casino"s you could find. Really nice spec. Beautiful card-room, 20 tables glistening pristinely waiting for the hordes to descend and the competition to begin at 2.30pm

I"ll be back on later. For now, all being well, a bacon sandwich awaits.

Hope you all have a great couple of days, I will be thinking of all you guys in the early hours as I head up to Glasgow airport!
Big shout to all my Leeds team mates, hope one of you guys manage to take it down. And have a great trip Rob (swinebag) enjoy Vegas! As if its possible to do anything else!
I will be tracking the updates right up to departure.

duncan Hodgkins limps and so do two others

Simon Auckland raises from the small blind, all call

flop 2-3-4 rainbow

Simon bets, Duncan calls

turn 10, two clubs on the board

Simon bets, Duncan calls

River 8 clubs

Simon check-calls Duncan"s bet

Simon   :as:

Duncan   , flopped nuts, rivered straight.

A bad start for Auckland
