Don’t mention the flop! (I mentioned it once, but I think I got away with it.)
Just two tables today – which meant an interesting start to the cash game on one of the pub tables, polished to within an inch of its life so keep the cards on the table was somewhat challenging.
Early action say Dale take Tod to value town with top v second pair, and then Tod to go crazy with 77 only to run into Trippier’s QQ.
Steve Healey picked up the high hand with quad jacks (AJ and three jacks on the flop).
Apparently there was some issue with the flop at some point, but I think it was over with quite quickly…
Chris Baker exited in 14th which meant the door was wide open for someone to catch him at the top. In the end that person was Claire Thornton, coming second on the night and finishing as league leader.
Adam Phelan was the victor, earning his 6th career win – very impressive, young man.

Cash game
Great fun as always. Nic Cross lost a chunk, but I think he had a good time while doing it.
Another classic Jack moment as, with me the only person yet to act on the river after a round of checks, Jack and Nic start to discuss their hands. “Well I’ve got two pair.” “Yes, me too, but top two.” “I haven’t got the straight.” “Me neither, nor a set.” Er, I think I’ll raise…. 🙂 As it happens I did have the straight (the nuts) but still, very funny.
Also amusing as Jack came back from the bar with three pretty big bottles of cider, just at the point that we decide to call it a night. Doh.

Thoroughly enjoyed Cats v Dogs on BBC2. If you’re a fan of either, it’s well worth a catch-up on iPlayer.
