WD simon, one of the most casual, not bothered what happens kinda attitude i ever seen lol. spoke to him just before final table because he was on my table when it was 25 left and when it was 5 handed, then heads up too and his facial expression was like he'd just bubbled each time lol
UL to bedi and ricky, was railin for them to take it down, overall a very quite boring final table in my opinion
watching a massive chip stack spew his chip stack away in spots was painful to watch, think people will know what i mean.
thks for updates tighty and team really enjoyed it and ty for support
Echo the congratulations, but Simon was clearly quite giving a shit/semi tilted when giving me half his stack in three hands on that table; did very well to recover, and get there - so much deserved. wp all , enjoyed this torn, particularly level of play on Sunday. Only wish is they put it back to £100 as
only 1st-3rd was worth getting excited about

Buy in : Prizes ratio is pretty exceptional in this tournament for the regular, bread and butter recreational players I'd say.
Lol David, true, I appreciate its aimed at lower staking recs, and that when it was raised the figures suffered, perhaps two grand prix’s per year, one at £50, one at £100, should get 2k runners for the small one, 1k runners for the bigger one. Just think more chances to bag a golden chip holiday

We reached the final at 12.30am
9 handed Rowney raised, shortstack Cross shoved and in the big blind Armeni found AA
Rowney playing 2.8m made what I fet was a questionable call of two shoves with 7-7 and found Cross with 10-10
The board ran out J-Q-4-A-K to treble Cross up and knock out Armeni 9th
Rowney himself then fell 8th before Hodson found AA UTG. Unfortunately for G2L he had KK. Hodson playing 5.7m, Bedi 4.5m
An unavoidable pre-flop cooler to knock George out 7th
Six handed Hodson had 11m of the 31m in play
Tibor Kover fell 6th and then another key hand
Norfolk raised AQcc UTG and Cross called with 33 in the small blind
Fieldhouse made it 1.4m from 3.5m in the bb with 10-10
Norfolk shoved on him, covering
Fieldhouse 3 bet folded leaving himself 20x bb, mistakenly we felt on commentary
His opportunity was lost and he was out 5th next level
4 handed another key pot
Hodson playing 12m, Norfolk 8m, Eggleston the tightest player 5m and Cross 2m
Hodson raised K8dd UTG
In commentary we were taking ICM and not taking on the chip leader in Norfolk's spot
Payous were 20k, 13k, 8k, 5k
He three bet 7-7 in the big blind
Hodson called
flop 7-5-4 two diamonds and they get it in for a 16m pot
Top set held and Norfolk took a big chip lead
Cross fell fourth, and Hodson was unlucky, key hand AQ losing to A5 b-o-b v Eggleston
Heads up they began 90x bb deep at 3.30am and I feared a long one
Both played quite passively, and chips went back and forth for an hour
Then, Eggleston raised A-5 on the button and Norfolk called with 4-3
A-5-Q flop
Norfolk check called
7 turn giving Norfolk the double belly buster
He check raised all in, two pair called and held to give Eggleston the win
Afterwards Norfolk told me he was knackered by then, had little experience of Heads Up and regretted pushing
This time, when he did, Eggleston had a hand to call him with flopped two pair

Finally I need to thank cambridgealex
He volunteered to co-commentate and did so for nearly 5 hours through the night and was terrific
thanks, much appreciated
I will let you know when the stream is up in the library of past streams on DTD's site

Sean - 1000 runners @ £100 each = 2000 runners @ £50....
Really agree with George on the 'best idea yet' for the GP though. Playing to 10% and a guaranteed cash could become another DTD inspired industry standard.
btw - what happened to the guy from Firday who had 855k?

I factored that in David, the payouts will accordingly be to less people, right?

Think he is talking the 77 at the final table 4 handed vs chip leader. I think it was min raised, and 77 was 3 bet out of the BB. There can't ever be an error in calling pre, but there is an argument you shouldn't 3 bet because of the ICM considerations. It can't be
very
bad vs this villian? From what I recall, he didn't look the type to 3 barrel and put him in a world of pain.
Villian didn't do much wrong either, the min raise pre was fine, he is big chip leader after all. Flush draw and overs is fairly hard to put down for the villian, by the time (or if) you realise you are in deep trouble, the chips are either all in, or you are priced in to call anyway. This is particularly true when you have a gazillion chips and you should be piling on some pressure.
It would be difficult to claim they both played that questionably, and it looked very much like the chips were going in when you saw a 743dd flop.
George clearly unlucky.

well in my opinion it is bad, i see what your saying but if two guys are putting there chips in the middle at that stage then your 77 is just no good simples but we all have that decision to make at some point, and i understand he's also got chips already in, but... let it go. thats what his game was about though, he did these plays for the thrill i think
speaking my mind
spoke to him on the breaks and seemed a nice enough guy sinking those red bulls and running around
but on the table was somehow different and i know a few players next to me told me the same, he came across arrogant and a little bit ego, all wanting him to secretly crash out lol (can i say this lol ), I KNOW PEOPLE WANTED THAT lol.
but still he was ONE of the most fun entertaining players there in final 25 i thought, crazy donk play at times but if it was all abc how boring would it be
