Wha? Tournier Busto! 2 years ago

Due to some absolutely amazing work by the tournament announcer, here is what we can tell you about the second hand of the final table:

"And there has been an all-in at the table. Donal Norton shows J-10 and Edwin Tournier has K-7. And we're going to lose Edwin Tournier!"

So, really helpful.

Anyway, we've been able to piece together that Tournier got all of his money in the middle on the river of a J-J-4-Q-K board holding kings-up, with Norton more than happy to play holding trip jacks. Tournier is out in sixth place and will take home €135,000.

Shuffle Up and Steal! 2 years ago

The introductions have been completed, with sole surviving Irishman Donal Norton getting a rousing cheer from the gallery as he is brought to the table. The cameras are ready and with four minutes left in the current level the tournament announcer directs the lovely Dena to "Shuffle up and deal!"

We're go from the final table in Dublin.
