Glory Glory, Ali Zinhi?

Level 7 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Ali Zinhi and Paul Whyman (pictured left alongside Mario Andreas) have clashed just now, as the two passionate Tottenham Hotspur fans experienced bad luck when they failed to land on Teddy Sheringham's table but have made use of good luck on their table when it has come along.

With Whyman raising pre-flop to 2700 from mid-position, Zinhi called in the cut-off and saw a flop of {3-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} . Whyman checked, so Zinhi led out 3,000 and got a quick fold.

"Good fold." he said, and turned over {J-Hearts}{J-Clubs}. Whyman nods in appreciation of some good cards for his opponent, and still has 60,000 chips - well above average. It pales compared to Zinhi's chip mountain, however. Zinhi has 160,000 and the clear lead in the room.

"I've had AK beat kings. But then my aces lost to Q-9. Jacks lost to Ace-King before jacks beat tens." says Zinhi.

Playable hands all of them, and so far, the swing is pointing to the top of the chip counts. Impressive stuff.
