Van den Bye-Bye
A player with about 80,000 chips left in front of him got that stack all in before the flop with 
, and that was going to get him in trouble. Joep van den Bijgaart woke up with 
across the table, and he put the shorter stack at risk.
The board ran down 
, and that's a knockout for the Dutchman. It moves him up to 265,000, just the latest chip trend in his volatile day.
Boatman Scuppered
Sam Trickett made the opening raise and both David Steicke and Allen Bari called, before Ross Boatman went all in. Trickett and Steicke both got out of the way, but Bari now called all in.
Boatman was ahead.

Board: a bink-tastic 
Bari doubled to 195,000. Boatman meanwhile was crippled to just 20,000 or so.
Abecassis All But Out
Michel Abecassis is the latest man to get his shortening stack into the pot with a dominated hand. It was his 
in all kinds of trouble as Chino Rheem put him to the test with 
.
The flop was even more of a disaster for Abecassis, coming to make Rheem's lead larger. When the landed on the turn, Rheem reached out his hand to shake Abecassis', and the Frenchman began to stand from his chair.
We don't think either man initially realized that a 
river would be good enough to split the pot, and the rest of the table reacted at the sight of the matching full houses. Abecassis was halfway standing already, but he plopped back down to return to his stack, now slightly fatter with the addition of half the blinds and antes. He's got about 120,000.
Hachem Back Up There
After doubling up Greg Raymer in that hot world-champion-on world-champion episode earlier, Joe Hachem has made a recovery and is back up to 240,000.
The flop read 
when the short stack's chips went in.

Sarwer's Opponent Captures King
"All in and a call, Table 2!"
We scurried over to see what the fuss was about, and it was about aces versus kings. It was Jeff Sarwer on the good side of things with his 
crushing his opponent's .
"You've even got both of his flushes covered," someone noticed.
The flop was a raggy , and the man with kings was visibly frustrated with the predicament he had found himself in. The turn 
made him even grumpier, but the appeared on the river like a beacon of salvation. "YES!" he yelled.
Next door, Sarwer was just smirking wryly. "Don't worry about it," he said with sincerity. "I'm used to it." He could only shrug and continue to grin as he counted out the losses, pushing his stack all the way down to about 20,000.
Ask a Stupid Question...
We've heard our fair share of ridiculous questions from the poker media, and we sometimes cringe at the thought of what must be going through the interviewer's mind. This week in London, Glo took a hands-on approach to the matter, asking some of your favorite players some of the worst questions we've ever heard in an interview. Check it out:
