BongBob said he tripled up in a very funny hand.

UTG made it 250 (at 50/100), 3 call and BongBob calls from BB with 33

Flop 8 3 2 all check

Turn J BongBob bets 750 into 1.2k, two fold, one old guy makes it 1,750, another young guy makes it 2,925. BongBob figured that that old guy must have a J and BongBob was never folding, so he flat called, the old guy goes all in, the young guy insta calls and BongBob calls.

Old guy KJ, Young guy AJ. The old guy took his time turning his cards over. He was studying both his opponent's hands and concluded. "he has me beat", pointing to the AJ

must be nice to be BongBob. "The players are just not very good.

Players going on dinner break soon.

BongBob lost the two hands before dinner break and was down to 3-4k. He lost AA against a flopped set.

Then lost JJ vs AQ.

When I found him not long after the break, he was back to 7k and he sounded positive, telling me "We'll just see how it goes"

LeChiffre19, already busto

LeChiffre19 meanwhile, lost two monster pots and is already busto. He lost AQ vs AQ and KK vs AQ

polishfool was also critically short and tripled up recently. He had lost a huge 18k pot with AQ vs KJ

As for ch1ll3edkro3t3, he told me that "I spewed around with this guy", pointing to the guy to his left. I then asked him what his real name was, and the dealer chimed in "his name is young durrrr"
