    That would be famous singer/songwriter Marcel Luske.




    Perhaps if Devilfish is there with guitar they will have an impromptu jam session.  Maybe even take requests.

    The man ever poker player owes a thank you and a drink to, John Duthie.

    If Mr Front of House isn't too busy (I imagine the DC hasn't opened yet), could you ask him if there would there be any chance to get Mr Duthie on 861?  Probably a marked long shot but you never know, would be massively interesting to hear his take on poker past, present and future.

    left short Brammer then shoved three hands in a row

    firstly over a Rhys Jnes raise, who passed to the shove


    then an open, all pass

    then a third consecutive shove for around 7,000

    Graham Wheldon called in the big blind

    was lucky to be passing as this one went down

    UTG  Vasile Cosmin Stancu raises to 1200

    Peter Ryder 4,000 UTG+2

    Rizwan Khan flats

    Back to Vasile Cosmin Stancu who makes it 11,000

    Ryder calls

    Khan now shoves

    Call

    Call....

    A crowd gathers around the table

    in seat 2 Chinese Frankie is jabbering excitedly, like a budgerigar in mating season

    one their backs

    Vasile Cosmin Stancu...Aces

    Khan....Queens

    Ryder, the last person to put the full stack in Ace-King

    the board runs out

    8-Q  (Ooooooooooooh says the rail. cheep cheep says Chinese Frankie)

    8

    J

    river Ace (aaaaaaaaaaaaah says the rail, on its own rollercoaster of emotions)

    Vasile Cosmin Stancu trebles up to one of the big stacks, Khan very short, Ryder very short


    this is the showdown aftermath
