A Trio of British Lions

Level 17 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Over the past few years, one of the highlights of the World Series of Poker has been the now infamous British rails. The shoe-bomb, soccer-chanting, raucous British railbirds were there for Barny Boatman and Matt Perrins' bracelet wins in 2013, for Craig McCorkell's victory in 2012 and Jake Cody's Triple Crown completing victory in 2011.

So far in 2014, we've not been able to savour the delights — if that's what you would call them — of the loud British railbirds, but if Rhys Jones, Liam Alcock and Louis Salter managed to progress through to the final table we could have quite a crowd on our hands.
