The Jelly Beginning to Wobble

[user4144]

During the break, I managed to bump into two of a handful of Brits participating in this event, Steve 'The Jelly' Jelinek and Osman Mustanoglu. Whilst the latter simply reported, "twelve thousand, nothing exciting", the former seemed rather more demoralized after seeing his Big Slick shot down by pocket rockets.

"The guy made it 2,000 preflop. No one does that with aces I thought. Anyhow, I hit a king on the river and paid him off. Of course, he had aces."

As a result of that clash, Jelinek has gone from 22,000 back down to 9,000, but remains in reflective mood. "I'm fine about it, it's just having gone up to twenty two..."
