25/25 Aberdeen IV - Day 2 - Level 19 (6000/12000/1500)

19:24: Just lost Michael Gordon in 12th last hand before the break! He kept his bluff going by shoving the River with Queen High but Shahid picked it off with KT, Top Pair. Michael Gordon 12th for £630.

19:16: Break in 2 mins. Chip counts coming soon!

19:14: Lewis Walker shoves all in and gets it through. Spike said he folded a pair. He has been giving Lewis a lot of stick for playing very tight the last couple of hours.

19:13: Shahid opens to 27.5k, no callers.

19:11: Shahid limps for 12k, Kenny does too (on the Button), SB/BB complete and check. Flop Kd5h2h. Checked to Kenny who bets 19k and takes it down.

19:09: The final 12 players. Break in 10 minutes then I'll get the full chip counts.

19:08: Double up for Marius through Kenny. AK vs A4 all in pre-flop.

19:03: Roar Ulvatn out! He got it all in with A8 on the J8x flop vs Shahid's 99. The Nines held. Roar Ulvatn 13th for £630.

19:01: On the subject of lookalikes here's one for Spike himself...

18:57: Spike's been going on for ages about Thomas Naylor looking like an actor from NCIS Los Angeles. What do you think? He could be on to something here actually...

18:55: Shahid away from the table for his big blind. Wonder who will pinch it? Kenny Fong starts things off with a 30k open UTG. No contest.

18:49: Next break in 25 minutes. Unless we reach the final 9 before then. Unlikely I think.

18:47: Rob Franks missing Wee Spikey already...

#2525aberdeen look forward to seeing all next leg in Dundee , missing spike already :)

18:44: Double up for Neil Khir through Thomas Naylor. Neil had 8s7s vs 66 and they got it all in on this Ts turn! No pair up for Naylor's Set. Neil up to about 375k now.

18:42: Rob Franks busted earlier in the day. He added "Champion" to the end of this tweet btw...
