Hough to Get to a Final Table

Laurence 'Rivermanl' Houghton had a rough time of it last night, admitting that the end of day came at exactly the right time for him.

"I didn't want to play anymore," he said, having dropped from 100,000 to 50,000 right towards the end.

On the bubble, he was down to around 43,000 and said he simply had to double up the next level.

He's off to a decent start so far, calling a 5,500 bet from Richard Cleveland on a {2-Diamonds} {5-Diamonds} {10-Clubs} board before firing out 10,600 on the {6-Diamonds} turn when Cleveland checked to take down the pot.
