Photo please? I googled it, but there are multiple bands called Creme Brulee and as far as I can see none of them look like Mr Moustache.

Sorry Dana

Creme Brulee area fictional 70"s crap band from the "Leauge of Gentlemen"

Hello from Bristol where the Gala Poker Tour Grand Final starts tomorrow...

I feel like one of the regional reporters from Children In Need.

My pick is Gropey (or Groep) Hansen.

[kinboshi]

Floppy in need.  Who"s doing the update with you tomorrow?

No comment.

This is for that tiebreaker right...

Kinboshi is such an angle shooter!


Updates on the Camel pls, runs good in Amsterdam (except when I back him!! )

Hey Guys,
             Great job on the live updates - a good friend of mine is playing, his name is Anthony Donohoe.

Last i heard he was on Noah Boekem table, he is wearing a balck shirt with paddypowerpoker on it and he is an ugly f*cker - any chance of an update on him next time your are in the room?

Thanks.

Hi there,

Sure, he"s in the Roller Niche - if he"s still in his seat will get him before the break.

I am sorry to say he is 1.5 tables away from the rail and therefore we are unable to watch him play any hands.  I can, however, verify that he is still in and must have played some considering his stack is very large but mainly made of blue 25 chips... I expect it"s around the 15k mark, but quite hard to tell anything except that he has been hoarding the old shrapnel.

Haven"t seen the rest of them yet, but Roman Yitzhaki is in a pleasingly accessible seat, right underneath the Money Wheel. He looks to still be around the 6 or 7k mark. Will do my best to find others...

We will do our very best to track your countryfolk and their Canadian neighbour... I must say that if they make it to Day Two it will all be a lot easier as they will be listed by location, and there won"t be four of them (locations, not your guys).  As you may or may not have been able to tell from our picture, we know where Mr. Yitzhaki is, and I am pretty sure I know where Mr. Schaefer was sitting at the last break...

I am basically hedging here in case we can"t give you any interesting stories (this will be the case if they are sitting anywhere other than the periphery of the rooms which are off-limits to us lowly regular press people today). 

Currently remaining are 346/428 players.  Odds dictate most of them are still in. Sorry I can"t be of more immediate informative assistance.

Ohhh, you mean this guy?



That"s a pretty tenuous sort of lookalikey if you ask me, but no matter! I have an excuse to post another photo of Mr Moustache himself (still unnamed, I"m afraid) as he"s just knocked out Peter Eichhardt, moving in on a  qc      flop and Eichhardt calling.

Mr Moustache -  jc kc

Eichhardt -  :as: ac

Turn -  

River -  


Pretty hairy there for a moment for Mr Moustache, but nothing he couldn"t handlebar.

Oh my God I need the dinner break.

Dwell of the Tourney So Far goes to Bruno Fitoussi after this hand took a few thousand from his 25kish stack...

On a flop of   :: he bet out 700 (after raising preflop) and In-Position-Matey instacalled.
Turn:    Bruno bet out 2,000 - slightly less than insta-call, but call
River:    Bruno checks here, and Matey bets 1,500 - about a quarter of the pot.  The ensuing dwell is what gives the suave M. Fitoussi the Prize... he says, "Two nines?  I don"t believe that.." before thinking some more, asking for the pot to be spread, thinking some more and eventually saying, "I am making a bad call," making a bad call with his  td ts and seeing exactly what he predicted -   .
