Antoine Saout

The big event on Saturday is set to start 12 noon (Pacific Time) and I have been given a surprise tip by Magical Tipser - it is Antoine Saout.

He is the 25 year old Frenchman who is the surprise package in this years final and subsequently he is a big price (18/1 on Betfair). As the rank outsider he is expected to be one of the first to be knocked out, however, do not be surprised if he stays in a lot longer than most people think.

Apparently he has been practicing very hard by playing in all sorts of tournaments and seems to have a lot of stamina which is needed for such competition.

James Akenhead - come into the calculations as another big price (15/1) but he is also short stacked and he too will need a miracle, but sometimes miracles do happen.

http://pokerknave.com - with a video of two drunks who decide to pick on a drag queen when out on the town in Swansea. The only problem with their plan was that the drag queen were cage fighters and did not like the idea of having their handbag stolen.

Excellent video to watch when you are bored with playing online poker.

Dean Gardener (bare chest drunk)
Jason Fender (fat guy)
Daniel Lerwell (drag queen)
James Lilley (drag queen)
