at the very front of the building Arpad Demeter is wearing Team sky poker gear and opens to 1,500 UTG
Darren Craven 3,500
this on a table with greg hill, chaz chattha and rob white
Demeter calls
4c 5s 7s
Demeter check calls 3,800
2s
check check
6h
Demeter leads for 10,000
Craven then thinks...and thinks....
he looks demeter up and down, he gets 10,000 ready to call
Quite amusingly (to me, i'm easily amused) three seats in a row at the table lean forward to look at what he is calling with and then lean back in unison as craven has a double think
