Easy Go, Easy Come for Boatman
Barny Boatman's table is winning the Late Night Chat award, with everyone getting involved in the penultimate level's banter. This doesn't seem to have distracted him from wielding his potentially field-leading stack in almost every other hand.
Boatman took a hit in what started off as a three-way pot to a 
flop. Boatman, under the gun, checked, the middle position player checked and Patrick Ford bet 8,000 into a pot of about 15,000. Boatman alone made the call. On the

, Boatman said, "Good," and mucked.
The very next hand a short stack (whom according to the table chat everyone had been giving a lot of respect, despite his moving in repeatedly with on or under 10bb) shipped it preflop for 18,000. Eoghan O'Dea moved in over the top for about 10,000 more and again, action was on Boatman. He called the both of them.
Short stack: 
O'Dea: 
Boatman: 
The board ran out 
and Boatman knocked them both out, saying, "Turns out you can't keep a bad man down either."
