After a limp for 400 and two calls including Laurence Essa, Sandra Reid raised to 1,200 from the button and was called by all three opponents. On the 
[Js6 flop the action was checked to Reid and she bet 3,600, which only the first limper called. Essa was about to fold his cards when he touched his glass filled with ice cubes and it fell over, wetting his cards. The dealer asked for a new deck while the hand continued.
The turn saw no further action and the other player in the hand then bet 8,000. Reid raised to 18,000, putting her opponent all in and was eventually called. The shorter stack announced a jack and then laughed when Reid flipped over her 
for a full house with the last community card.

"Write that down Mister blogger. Anna Kournikova looks nice but barely ever wins." Keith Miller replied to a fellow opponent from seat two "but it was enough to win this time," before stacking the chips after a double up. On the 
turn, Miller had moved all in for 18,125 into a pot of what appeared to be 15,000.
His opponent tank-called after long consideration and then sighed when Miller showed the . His own 
had the worse kicker and the hero call with ace-high was no good anymore. A meaningless 
river completed the board and the pot was shipped to Miller.
