A picture of Steve Redfern signifies the start of Level 7. Blinds 200/400, ante 50.



We are playing to the end of level 12 tonight.

Mark has predicted we will be left with somewhere between 0 and 32 players. I have gone for the overs.

[MarkTheShark]

My words were that i thought thered be around 32 players remaining by close of play tonight....Matt thought more so we"ve had a little wager.

To suggest i thought "between 0 and....." is purely Matt's definition of it! I would say 32 or less.....with him having 33 or more....

How are Tony Tripps, Kev O"Driscoll, Andy n Debjani Duncan and Dale Macchiarelli doing?

[MarkTheShark]

Dale Macchiarelli gone for the BCPC :

With 16k left, Dale raises from mid position to 1400 with   - the button re raises to 3800 to which Dale calls.

Flop comes 7Q9

Dale checks flop, button shoves for more than Dale"s stack - Dale tanks and makes the call - not putting the button on any Q.....button shows AQ.

Dale down.

[MarkTheShark]

Kev O Driscoll down.

Tony Trippier, Andy and Debjani Duncan and Steve Redfern still going....as well as - and lets not forget - Laura Rhoden!

[BOINGBLITZ]

Hadn"t forgotten Laura (who could!!) ..... was asking bout the one"s you hadn"t mentioned......forgot Andy Overton though??

[Matt D]

Rod Buckman up to over 60k thanks to the following.

Dealt Rod makes a standard sized pre-flop raise to 1500 (blinds 300/600).

The board is dealt: 4 5 8 , two of which are diamonds.

Rod bets out 2k, his opponent raises to 5k. Rod calls.

Turn 3 (not a diamond)

Rod checks. His opponent bets 5k. Rod shoves all in. His opponent tank hero calls with:

46o

The river brings the fateful Ace, and Rod doubles up to just over 60k.



Rod Buckman on 60k.
