Day: 2
Event Info
Short-stacked, Finney made it approximately 10k pre-flop, virtually screaming to the table, "I'M COMMITTED!" (in the poker sense, that is, not committed to the mental institute).
However, Tony G woke up with Aces and it was soon on their backs time, Finney adding his remaining 11k to the pot without hesitation.

"I've been a bit lucky," observed Finney to his fascinated neighbour.
Dario Alioto calls with XX and no help on the remaining two streets for Cunningham.
One thing I've noticed about the bustouts is there isnt much hand shaking afterwards. I wager it is not bad nature, but simply because all these players are so stinking rich that losing a £5000 tournament is a mere drop in the ocean to them.
Elsewhere the Devilfish has asked a few players to move so he can stare at an attractive massage girl. When they wouldn't he nearly fell off his chair trying to sneak a peek.
Unfortunately, the boat theme stops there as Devilfish has selfishly left his sailor's hat at home, although the temptation to photoshop one in is very strong indeed...
I know this because he called me over to his table to tell me.
Good for you Ted, our chip leader.
The 'on ya bike' G-ster called only to be met by the "2 pair" announcement of the Wolfe man, following by the revealing of an for top two.
Tony smirked as he mucked, but I think he's already plotting revenge.
My prediction for the next post? Roland 1, Tony G 1. Only time will tell...
