As it happens, this rather attractive Spanish lady is still in. Given the 17% unemployment rate in Spain and the general competence of Spanish players, her final tabling couldn't be a bad thing for poker.
I had a quick look to see if its getting any coverage and there was nothing on marca or any of the other sport sites. Compare this to Italy where if a player makes day 2 of any big event, be it EPT or WSOP it gets quite a bit of coverage on Gazzetta's website.
If only an Italian was still in contention, that really would be a good thing for poker, though terrible for the Italian economy0 -

I hope Akenhead wins!! I played with him a few times in UK events, he is a very good player and comes across as a decent bloke at the table.
Would you prefer us to praise and talk up ur game jacky
Akenhead is class player also....This has the makings of a great FT should the poker gods consent0 -

He's my dark horse to win just like Eastgate was at this stage last year. I really should back him.

Very little to praise:pac:He's my dark horse to win just like Eastgate was at this stage last year. I really should back him.
I picked Eastgate last year and won a few bob and have done the same this year with Akenhead so here is hoping i am right 2 years running.0 -

Well the thing is that certain champs in certain sports tend to be either extremely likeable, Agassi, McEnroe, Davis, or total boring goons, Ivey, Sampras, Woods. No personality at all in there whatsoever.
Noone really likes the Magician anyway, he's brash, loud, and rude. If he wasn't winning we'd all be openly hating the man. I still hate him. Not personally you understand, but I can't abide his table presence one iota. Hellmuth has earned his spurs at this level and we all love his rants, ditto Deeb and Tony G. When Tony Magic goes off on one he just looks stupid.
And I'm still standing by my Mahan/Watney predictions from earlier.0 -

My interest in this will bust when Ivey does and i'm sure i'm not the only one. Not looking good right now.0 -
