Jennifer Harman's hand:
The result: Down to the final table, which will reconvene at 2 pm tomorrow local time.
The verdict: It's been a very interesting day of play from some of the top players of the game(s). And an earlier finish than we anticipated. The bar is still serving the mojitos, which Mssrs. Vos and Rayan Nathan vouch for, and it's a lovely summer night here in London town. Thumbs up.
At one point, Vos described how he was feeling by using three words that I cannot repeat in writing, and ones that got progressively worse.
"Oh, I apologise, I'm a little drunk," confessed Vos, girlfriend in arms, as the TD requested his hush-hush whilst simultaneously aghast at the cheeky profanity.
I bet he was a right rascal at school this lad!
With the board reading
and the shiny cream plaque on the table informing me that the game is Omaha/8, all the chips fly in on the turn with Jan calling all in to Yuval's reraise.Yuval =

... and Sorensen survives the dangerous, gulp-inducing flush draw for a split pot.
Although the Kiwi Kid was reluctant to call the final bet, it was almost obligatory, but by the final card it was Dalby who required a miracle, looking for an ace or a deuce to stay in the competition. Unfortunately for the Brit, neither arrived and we're a wily veteran down.

(his opponent folding (X-X) 
).Then an admittedly larger pot changed hands the other way, as Yuval Bronshtein bet hard on sixth street with their hands looking like:
Bronshtein: (X-X)
Jones: (X-X)
Yuval Bronshtein checked in the dark as the river came to each of them, and Gary Jones checked behind, wearily announcing, "Two pair." Unsurprisingly more perky, Bronshtein responded, "Full house," revealing the
lurking in his hand. Gary Jones rearranged his 47K stack, looking weedy in comparison to Bronshtein's towers, and his expression set Yuval off into a concise sum-up of what his opponent could be thinking: "You're good; I'm bad. I'm lucky; you're not." It was all with a smile, though.
A quiet, reserved kind of chap, Buzzer is really one of those guys who just gets on with it without so much as a murmur. However, that may be because he's more used to playing in silence from the comfort of his own armchair at home. His prolific online record is enough to make even the strongest of online pros weep into their soup and cry, "I wish I was as good as him."
Buzzer's skills lie predominantly in STTs, but he is also a talented tournament player with an array of lucrative wins including 250K in the big Party Poker competition just weeks before the 2005 World Series. Not bad for a day at the office, and he certainly shouldn't be overlooked here.
