Grind Britain
Apr 13, '08
Irish Open winner Neil Channing has fetched up at PokerStars.com EPT London winner Vicky Coren's table - the pair know each other well from their regular stomping ground the Victoria Casino in London.
At the next table ttwo other well-known Brits, Surinder Sunar and Mickey Wernick's found themselves at the same table - both have been playing in the biggest games across Europe and America since the early 1980s.
Channing gesticulates at the table and says, apropos of nothing, "Would you look at that - there's some experience at that table. What a pair of grinders," grinned Channing pointing at Wernick and Sunar who both raise a weary, late night smile.
When informed this might be himself and Coren in 30 years time Channing quips, "I hope that's not all we have to look forward to."
Wernick announces back to the Channing/Coren table that he's all-in. "What he got," asks Channing. "A-K vs K-Q suited," is the response. "Does Mickey have the A-K," enquires Vicky standing up to have a look. "Of course he has the A-K," said Channing, deadpan as usual, without having to look up.
Mickey duly wins the hand, doubles up, and despite being short-stacked announces proudly, "Back in the saddle."

Neil will be on the cover of the June issue of Card Player Poker + Sports which will hit the streets in mid-May. "I'd have worn a clean shirt if i'd have known," he joked.

Sunar folded the hand.
