Steve Watts Eliminated

Level 15 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

It folded to Steve Watts in the small blind who moved all in with {k-Clubs}{5-Clubs} but unfortunately for Watts the player in the big blind had {a-}{k-} and Watts couldn’t get lucky and bust agonisingly close to the money.

Blinds Up, Stacks Short

Level 15 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

With 52 players now left in the filed the pace of eliminations has noticeably slowed with several short stacked players around the ten big blinds mark eager to hang on and squeek into the money ranges are tighter than a very tight thing.

With the level clicking over just now no one can escape the march of tournament poker and it now just a matter of time.

Blinds: 3,000/6,000

Alex Goulder Busts Short of the Money

Level 14 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Alex Goulder seemed to be cruising along for most of the day on around average stack but he has recently been eliminated as told by Tom Hall.

Goulder lost a near 500,000 chip pot when he ran his Kings into an opponent's Aces. That's where the damage was done and a shove not long after was looked up by a slightly better hand and he couldn't connect with the flop.

Ladies Event Underway

Level 14 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

There are 35 runners for the ladies event and it looks like this event is going to be a lot of fun as the champagne corks popped and it was Asper’s finest bubbly all round with most players accepting a glass.

Not that the tournament won’t be extremely competitive, as there is an added prize for first place of a $13,000 World Series of Europe package. Late reg is open for 8 levels and a £55 buy-in gets you a 10,000 starting stack.

In the field already are Team 888Poker Ambassadors Kara Scott, Natalie Hof and Sophia Lovgren.
