We've seen the back of Haigh

Robert Haigh was stood by the bar enjoying a beer. I'm no Sherlock but I figured he was out of the tournament.

He confirmed this fact for me after his nine big blind shove with ace-four failed to improve against the big blind's ace-king.

It was a hand earlier that had him bothered though. He made a big fold with ace-ten after an opponent check-raised all-in on the turn of a T-2-3-5 board. Robert said that this player told him they had the same hand, after he was eliminated.

The German is still smiling as he has a big sweat for the rest of the tournament as he hopes to maintain his Tour League leading position. Ronnie Espensen is also smiling as he has a clear goal in front of him now; 47th place or better and the title is his.
