Relieving The Tension

Matt Dale seems to be having the time of his life today, cheering, oohing and aahing and generally having a ruddy good time. In fact, the atmosphere here is very relaxed indeed, and almost feels like a Friday night £5 rebuy rather than the huge £2,500 freezeout that it actually is. I guess trying their utmost to have a good time is how many players relieve the pressure.

Matt hasn't been short of action though and has been confronted with plenty of opportunities to put that oohing and aahing into practice. His last all-in clash with Jeff Buffenbarger, however, was pretty straight forward, Matt's T-9 unable to outdraw Jeff's K-Q, however much he chanted for a "Ten or a Nine" on the River.

As a result, Jeff survives and is back up to 3,200 with his yellow chip still intact.
