ElkY Caught In The Cookie Jar

[user76023]

Houghton Makes a Comeback

[user46392]

With around 40,000 in the pot by the turn of the {Q-Diamonds}

board, Laurence Houghton bet out 21,300 from the hijack. His opponent on the button dwelled up for some time, stacked up some yellow 5,000 chips and looked as though he might raise -- and then folded instead.

"Show?" ventured the folder. "Nah," opted Houghton.

After sinking dangerously low earlier in the day, Houghton's up to a still below average but much more comfortable 120,000.

Here's To You Mr Robinson

[user76023]

"We'd like to know a little bit about you for our file..."

David Robinson has just knocked out two players after a three-way all-in on a {5-Spades}

flop. Robinson held {5-?}

and was up against {K-?}

and

The case {5-?}

came on the turn sealing the deal and Robinson now is on 300,000.

However he just lost a small pot after calling a continuation bet from Mike McDonald before both checked the rest of the {K-Clubs}

board down. Robinson's {K-Spades}

Camancho Drops a Little

[user46392]

Nestor Camancho has taken a bit of a hit after doubling up a short stack opponent. Excitable Romanian Constantin Cirstea was at one point involved in the hand, and the nervous all-in gent had to wait for some minutes while he had an extended argument with first the dealer and then a floorman about a 500 chip that Cirstea felt had at some point gone missing. Nevertheless, Camancho was the only caller, and they flipped their cards.

Camancho: {A-Spades}

Mr. All In: {5-Clubs}

Board:

to give Mr. All In a straight.

Camancho is nevertheless comfortable on 240,000.

Brewing Up Some Rahman

donpeters

Samer Rahman just won a massive pot worth approximately 370,000 chips when he doubled up through an opponent. The action is unclear, but when we arrived at the table, Samer's chips were being counted down so his opponent could send over the exact amount he owed.

The board read {A-Hearts}
