BlueSq.com GUKPT Thanet: Day 2

[danafish]

Jerome Bradpiece can return to his cave to hibernate until the next GUKPT as he is OUT.

Elliot Peterman raised from the button and big blind Jerome moved in for what looked like less than 10 big blinds. Peterman called, and they were on their backs.

Peterman:
Bradpiece: well ahead with

Flop:

Turn:

River: dramatic pause from the dealer...

Ouch.

Three-Way All In Craziness

I shall report this in a list format, as it seems the simplest way.

Liv Boeree (utg, 28k):
Praz Bansi (hijack, 38k):
James Browning (big blind, covered both):

Imagine, if you will, the Wall Of Assorted Media And Railers around the table.

Board:

Liv is OUT, Browning is down some chips, and Praz is up to 100k.

More Three-Way All In Craziness

No sooner was that last hand over, than another one developed on the next table.

James Mcellinney (utg):
Local boy Liam Pettman (utg+1):
Mark Bointon (hijack):

Board:

Mcellinney and Bointon are both OUT, and Mr Pettman takes their chips, to the delight of his railers.

Huge Cooler!

Praz Bansi and Jamie Brown got involved in a huge pot, there looked to be about 80k in the pot when it came to the river of a board.



Praz thought long and hard before putting out a bet of about 70k leaving himself 10k or so back. Jamie Brown instantly moved all-in and Praz jumped about in his seat as though he just felt an electric shock, he muttered, "Sick" to himself, before resignedly saying, "I call," flipping over for a boat. But Brown had clearly seen Jaws, as he had a bigger boat, turning over .

Praz is out, Brown is the chip leader. I'm hungry.

Raise-Fold Action

Ah, that classic move. Proponents today include:

- Jamie Brown (he of the Praz-sourced megastack), who made it 6k preflop but declined to call Karl Mahrenholz' all-in reraise.

- Tim Flanders, who delighted in min-raising to a mere 2.4k from the button and then folding to Nik Persaud's small blind shove for another 19.5k.

[danafish]

A bit of a hit for Mike Ellis. He and William Martin saw a flop and Martin checked to Ellis, who lazily threw in a 5k chip. Call. Both players checked the turn, and Martin came out betting on the river to the tune of . After a pause, Ellis called -- and mucked when Martin turned over for the flopped set.

[NoflopsHomer]

Nik Persaud is out, Tim Flanders shoves the small blind without looking, Nik gratefully calls with , Tim shows erm...



Nik Persaud is darn diddly-doodly out, while Flanders is fan-diddly-tastically about average.

Andreas Hoivold also MIA.

Alan Dean knocked out by Jimmy Morgan. The former pushed and the lanky Scouser postured and thought before making the call with , live against Dean's . An 8-5-2-7-A board later left the Deanster pushing up the proverbial poker daisies.

Curiously Curious News.

And the curiosity seems to have mostly killed Elliot Peterman chances today.

Mike Moore raises to 6,000 from the small blind. Call.



Moore bets 11,000. Call.



Moore checks, Peterman bets 16k with about 20k behind. Call.



Moore bets 12k, Peterman calls. Moore shows . Peterman mucks and seems to have about 7k left.

But good

[danafish]

Players are within moments of heading out on their 45 minute dinner break (our clock's a few minutes slow). Floppy will be back shortly with last-minute pre-dinner action, but I am heading off to get me some chicken.

---------------DINNER CHICKEN BREAK--------------

[NoflopsHomer]

Nothing much happening in the last few minutes apart from William Martin betting 10k on a 9-3-4 board but then folding his Eights to Andrew Clarke's reraise all-in. Clarke showing .

Jamie Brown still looks to be chip leader with a whooping 280k or so, which put in context, is already about average for the final table. See you in 45 - 60 minutes.
