Graham Wheldon

After surviving the entire day with a modest stack, Brit Graham Wheldon is touching cloth with just 15,000 in chips.

With a short-stacked Rick Lenoble pushing all in for 60,000 from middle position with {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{10-Hearts}

, Wheldon was delighted to wake up with the ladies (ahem), and duly called.

However, he was unable to fend off the bullet, a second rocket hitting the flop on a {6-Clubs}

{6-Clubs}

{A-Hearts}

{K-Spades}

{10-Spades}

{K-Hearts}

board.

Whilst Dylan Bircheff exclaimed, "What a flop!" Wheldon simply, "said, 'nice hand' and sipped tea," according to my field reporter's report.

You don't get much more British than that.
