Horrid Seat

Fri, Dec 5th 2008, 23:11 by Reporter

John Blackburn gets moved to possibly the worst seat in the tournament. He has Dave Colclough and Julian Thew to his right and Surinder Sunar and Praz Bansi to his left. I said to him “sick seat mate”, he then asked me who he should be worried about, so I assume he’s an internet qualifier!

Dave Colclough

Dave is currently listening to ‘Stephanie Says’ by the Velvet Underground on an iPod he borrowed from Julian Thew.

He also has just over 19000 chips

Vesanen goes all-in with little hesitation thinking that his two pair Q 10 is the best hand.
Scoins insta-calls and shows 8 and 8. This makes three of a kind for him.
J on the river doesn’t save Vesanen and he’s out.
