Sky Poker UKPC @DTD: Main Event Day 2

[TightEnd]

Here we go, hand for hand

"dealers when you get an all in and a call do not deal, wait for play on all other tables to finsh before the hand plays out"

See you on the other side

[TightEnd]

The bubble has burst

[TightEnd]

Greek Jack raises James Browning shoves

Call

Browning QQ

Jack 77

Browning doubles to 80,000

--

Jianhui Nie all in

Chrs Dowling calls the 55,000

Nie AK

Dowling AQ

772j2 Split pot

--

Simultaneously

John Docherty raises

Alan Mansbridge all in

Covered by both Ben Ward on the button CALLS all in

Docherty calls the Mansbridge all in!


The crowd around this table is  becoming massive. A throng of people has moved across the bottom tier from table 11 to 15 causing carnage in its way...six TV cameras jostling for best position, railbirds, your updater, Simon Trumper, TD.....

I knew DTD should have been built bigger.


Docherty JJ

Mansbridge QQ

Ward AK, which I have to say is quite a surprising all in on the bubble with about 15xbb to a raise and a shove

It runs out 4-2-4-8 with three hearts

Simon Trumper announces that Jacks have the Jack of hearts

No other hearts in the other two hands

A ripple flows across the room as if a pebble is being caught tier by tier before sinking into the water

The river is an offsuit 2

Mansbridge more than doubles

Ben ward is our bubble


We now play the last level of the night

[TightEnd]

Alex Goulder is definitely chip leader here

800,000 with 77 left average 240,000 blinds 3000-6000

40 minutes to play today

[George2Loose]

Sick structure

[TightEnd]

George Turner raises and Marcel Luske calls in position

Turner playing 300,000

Luske 450,000

K-9-3, two diamonds

Turner bets, the laconic and in image louche Luske calls

10 on the turn

Turner checks

Luske bets, pot sized bet

Turner all in with K-Q

Luske calls with 3-3

Turner out in the mid seventies and Luske up over 700,000

Hand for hand in @DTD_Cardroom clock is paused - I wish all tournament operators would apply this rule.

[Karabiner]

Good word "louche" not often seen nowadays.

I hear there's an old louche bloke in a velvet jacket still grinding the PLO too.

Top work as ever your tightness.

[TightEnd]

Jack Allen shoves 11x big blind in the cut off with A-7

Rick Trigg calls in the big blind wirh K-Q

There are bricks all the way until the Queen on the river knocks out Allen
