Title: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: snoopy1239 on December 03, 2008, 08:58:49 PM Howdy ho, peeps, and welcome to the blonde poker live update thread for the first ever DT (http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/)D (http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/) Anniversary Cup. It may feel like doors have been open for just one year, but believe it or not, Dusk Till (http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/) Dawn (http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/) have now been in business for twelve whole months. It's as if Rob (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=383) Yong (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=383) has stripped down to his birthday suit and streaked through the Grosvenor and Gala casinos with the words "We're here to stay" plastered onto his buttocks. And in celebration of that fact (the message, not the streaking - that was made up), DT (http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/)D (http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/) are proud to bring you their much anticipated Anniversary Cup.
Boasting a two hour clock and more chips than an entire series of Catchphrase (that's 20,000 by the way), the £1,000 main event is of course the main attraction and, along with the ballsy £100,000 guaranteed prize pool, should attract some of the best poker fanatics the circuit has to offer. Sadly, I must emphasise the word 'some' as DT (http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/)D (http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/) are also competing with the GCBPT Grand Final in Bristol and the GUKPT Champion of Champions event, the latter of which will be updated simultaneously by messieurs danafish and Junglecat. This end of the M1, meanwhile, we'll be keeping a keen eye on goings on here in Notts to bring you all the action as it happens with all the usual array of hands, counts, photos, quips and, if Floppy can somehow decipher the manual, the odd interview here and there. As always, if you would like a count of anyone in particular, simply give us a shout and like epileptic salmons we'll leap into action and scavenge away for the necessary info. Join us here tomorrow, bright and early (well, for the poker world) at 2pm sharp. But before I go, please feel free to offer a caption for the following picture of the much loved, but rather lonesome figure of 'Action Man' Rick (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=375) Trigg (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=375) using the caption-adding software http://wigflip.com/automotivator/ (http://img380.imageshack.us/img380/4802/qzfonpfw4uvb3.jpg) (http://img380.imageshack.us/my.php?image=qzfonpfw4uvb3.jpg) (http://img380.imageshack.us/img380/qzfonpfw4uvb3.jpg/1/w608.png) (http://g.imageshack.us/img380/qzfonpfw4uvb3.jpg/1/) (http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=23791&g2_serialNumber=1) Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: kinboshi on December 03, 2008, 09:09:29 PM (http://i219.photobucket.com/albums/cc43/kinboshi/friends.png)

He will be a real threat with this sick structure, updates appreciated! A real hats off to DTD for coming up with such a great structured event, and really raising the bar. All we need now is one of the tours to decide to go eight-handed, and we are close to acheiving the structures that these events deserve. Good luck to all Blondes playing.

Also present are the likely lads, Nick (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=310) Whiten (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=310), Simon (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=400) Trumper (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=400) and Simon Chubbs, the latter looking unusually dapper as if on his way to an interview.
As always, DT (http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/)D (http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/) have a running total of players gleaming away on the screen, whether good or bad. The current reading is 132, and it's increasing at the speed of a jet propelled cheetah (okay, a slug in treacle), but it should make the 150 mark by the end of the hour, and perhaps even higher before the completion of level two four hours later. In fact, there's a dirty rumour simmering around the vicinity that Sam (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=1429) Trickett (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=1429) and a handful of other eager beavers are considering playing like men possessed in the Champion of Champions to either amass a meaty stack off the bat or donate it all and make that 2 hour plus journey up the M1 to Nottingham. Right, Floppy's currently fiddling about with a video camera that we purchased today, but hopefully he'll get a video up shortly. Sadly, the first ever one to derive from this camera will be a practice clip one of me, which I was initially assured wouldn't be making its way to the general public. Lies, the Floppster's poker face cracked in several places. (Do you look at the camera or the interviewer? I can never decide, I chose the camera when I spotted Floppy's mug.)

When asked what he would do if it got 199, I nobly stepped in saying I would allow Simon to buy me in to be number 200. I am prepared to make that sacrifice.

Incredibly, we're a man down, and it appears to be a Mr Fernando Martin. I think Simon (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=400) Trumper (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=400) was as surprised as anyone when he was summoned over to table 12, and even more aghast when he saw the hands. It was a classic kings verus eights encounter in the end, Daniel Gutfreund the lucky recipient on an uneventful 3-J-4-3-J board. Red-Dog joins us a few moments later to share his early hand history: "I've had aces and kings already." "Did you double up?" we inquire. "No, nobody had eights," came the mischievous reply.

Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: NoflopsHomer on December 04, 2008, 03:16:01 PM Chris Bruce is having a frustrating start, after a few limps on his blind, he raised it up with A-Q and got three callers
The flop was Jd 8d 5h and Brucie tried to nick with a bonus 700 chip continuation bet, got called in one spot before there was a raise to 2,000. The third player got out of the way but Charles Valentine in seat 1 made the call. The raiser then continued to fire out another 2,000 on the Kh turn and then 4,000 on the 9c river but was called in both spots and forced to show 7d 5d for bottom pair and a busted flush draw, his opponent showed 9d 7h for the missed double gutshot draw but a rivered third pair which was good enough for the pot. Valentine looks to be one of our early chip leaders with over 40k. Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: NoflopsHomer on December 04, 2008, 03:18:35 PM As Jon Kalmar fired out 800 on a 3h Th 5h Tc board and then 1,600 on the 9s river to take a pot, he seemed much more concerned about his wife's efforts who is over on table 11.

Take exhibit A, for example. After making up the small blind, Will and the big blind saw a flop of Ac Kd 5s. Will bes out 125, his neighbour made it 350, only for Will to apply the pressure and bump it up to 1,000, which was duly called. Aggression once again on the 7c turn, as Will led out for 1,500, only for his stubborn opponent to make the call for the second consecutive time. On the 9h river, however, Fry increased his bet to 3,500 which, after a long dwell from his opponent, was enough to take down the pot.
Will shows 6c 4d. Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: snoopy1239 on December 04, 2008, 03:30:51 PM Snoopy: "Is that a lucrative stack or just a tall one?"

Take exhibit A, for example. After limping from early position, Will reraises a preflop raise of 350 to 750 total. His opponent flat-calls, and we see a flop of Ac Kd 5s. Will bets out 1,500, and his opponents calls. Deja-vu on the 9h turn, as Will leads out for 1,500, only for his stubborn opponent to make the call for the second consecutive time. On the 7c river, however, Fry bumps his bet to 3,500 which, after a long dwell from his opponent, is enough to take down the pot. Will shows 6c 4d. He's not as good as his brother Philip J Fry, though.

I joined the action on the turn of a 4d Tc Aspades 9d board, Dewstow-Newitt trying to raise Liaquat Javed's curious bet of 100 to 1,000, but being told that he'd have to call due to not announcing his intentions. On the Qc river, Javed once again bet out an odd amount, this time 300, which although was enough to force Will Fry out of the hand, triggered a raise of 1,000 total (this time announced with the annunciation of an Englishman talking to a foreigner) from Newitt. Javed shook his head and made the call, but, as he perhaps expected, came up short against Dewstow-Newitt's Ad Qh. You could say that Javed Newitt before he made the call. Ahem.

Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: snoopy1239 on December 04, 2008, 04:01:42 PM There was very little movement of chips in that first level, but we'll hopefully have a full count for you at the start of the next level.
Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: NoflopsHomer on December 04, 2008, 04:03:36 PM As Billy Ngo tells me, albeit in his always cheerful manner, how he lost a good chunk of his chips to Mad Turk when the latter flopped Quad queens and Billy paid him off turn and river. Mad Turk says, "Are you watching? I'm in a big pot here!"
And it was true he was, I hadn't see the flop or turn action but Turk had raised a James Mitchell river bet on a Kc 9h 9s Ts 6d to the tune of around 7k more. Mitchell then moved in and Turk let out a feral growl as though suddenly he was Wolf from Gladiators... "You've got Kings full haven't you. If you have Kings full, well...I've driven for 3 and a half hours to get here and..." Turk calls and Mitchell nods, flipping Kh Kd, and Turk shows Tc 9c in frustration before leaving. Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: BAM on December 04, 2008, 04:09:17 PM Best of luck to Andy "Fenners" Fenwick I just hope his bar ban is lifted for today then he may stand a chance.

I think we touched upon his double up hand earlier, but were light on details. Thanks to table mate Tim Blake, however, we can shower you with the betting action on the streets. The action started with Kennedy who raised it up, only to receive one caller and a minimum reraise from Bond, Mark Bond. Both players called.
On an ace high flop, Kennedy bet 500, Mateyboy ducked out of the way and Bond called. On the jack turn, there was a bet, raise and a call. Then, come the jack river, Bond led, Kennedy raised, Bond pushed (for not enough to force a fold according to Blake) and Kennedy called. Kennedy took it down with A-J for the full house, whilst Bond could only muster pocket queens. As he left, Bond was visibly disappointed by his exit, shaken, not stirred. Meanwhile, Kennedy was just delighted to have stuck it in his Goldeneye.

A sizeable pot of around 13k ended with check-checkage between Pete Linton and his nextdoor neighbour on a Ahrt 8d 3d Aspades 4h as both turned over A-Q off to split the pot. Meanwhile on a Qs Js 8s 2d 7c board, with 10k in the pot, John Eames checked OOP to his opponent who declined to bet. Eames showed Qd 8d and his opponent looked at the dealer and pointed to Eames, mucking his cards at the same time.

Just 12 exits thus far, but there are also several people nurturing depleted stacks. Feel free to point and mock from your arm chair.

Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: snoopy1239 on December 04, 2008, 05:34:39 PM This is Jim Buckley, known as Splash on the blonde poker forum but recently named 'Tim' by Floppy who claims he is the spit of Martin Freeman from the Office. I concur.
Buckley doing okay at the moment with little change in his stack, the last pot I saw him snap up being when his opponent called a 1,000 bet on the river of a 6h 7h 7s 3h Aspades. Jim showed a victorious Kh 5h, much to his opponent's chagrin.

Looks like he's running hot today, I hope he can put some pressure on the short stacks :) Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: snoopy1239 on December 04, 2008, 05:54:38 PM Disaster for Jen (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=198) Mason (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=198). "That's so annoying," she grrs after returning from a nasty set versus overpair encounter. Nothing too extra-ordinary here, Jen raising preflop with kings, betting a queen high flop, and then again on the raggy turn only for her opponent to say, "I'll put you all in then". Jen makes the call, but finds she's up against pocket fives. No miracle on the turn, and the manga-loving, sleep-obsessed, cat-enthusiast is gone.
Bernie Holmes was the assassin. Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: chad0x001 on December 04, 2008, 05:57:55 PM It would appear as though one of those unfortunate shorties is now out. James Egarr did double up his short-stack with Kd 5c versus Qh 9c on an ensuing 5h 8c Jd 4s Tc board, but exited a few hands later. Details of the swan song are so far unknown. Early on in the tourney, James raised pre flop to 1k with KK, I called with QQ. The flop came down T42 (2 clubs) he bet out 3k, I shoved, he said "I told myself before the tourney that if someone shoves against my Kings I'll fold" and so he did. I guess he's taken a beating before in this situation. He got down to 3.5k odd, Everyone folded to me when he was in the BB, I bet out 1k, he raised all in as I expected, I called with K5 off he showed Q3. I hit a 5 on the flop. He hit a queen on the turn and doubled up. A while later, I find myself with 55 on the button, raise it up to 2k, he shoves 6k+ I call. He shows A7 off and does not improve.

Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: NoflopsHomer on December 04, 2008, 06:45:53 PM LeKnave just have it stuck in his eye by Daniel Haglund. Haglund raised to 600 from midposition, and LeKnave reraised to 2,150 from the cutoff. After a think from Haglund, he repopped to 5,300 and LeKnave had to check his remaining 20k before folding to anothe 4-bet.
Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: snoopy1239 on December 04, 2008, 06:46:08 PM I can't recall if Floppy mentioned it before, but there was a crowd-gasping hand earlier on between Tony Nicholls and the chap pictured below, Richard Fuller. The latter was short-stacked and all in with tens, but looking in bad shape against Nicholls' jacks. A J-T-x flop teased, but ultimately looked to be the end of Fuller until a ten on the end for rivered quads sent the onlooking rail into an erupted frenzy. Nicholls never quite recovered from that blow, and later departed in 171st place.

He was all in with Tc Ts against Dennis Troake's Aspades Kc but was unable to survive a clinical Ac 6s 4s 8c 8s board.
Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: snoopy1239 on December 04, 2008, 06:54:46 PM Tom McCready is down to just several thousand now. He raised it up with pocket tens and received two callers, which led to a 9-9-8 flop. Tom bet out, only for one of his opponents to push over the top for a 4,500 more. With the draws on board, Tom made the call but found himself up against A-9, and unable to improve.
Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: snoopy1239 on December 04, 2008, 06:58:31 PM Neil Channing once described Trevor Reardon as the most solid player in poker, both in the way he plays and his general appearance over all. Trevor is currently hovering around his 20,000 starting stack, but it got me to thinking. Which other players could you describe as the solid personified. Mickey Wernick is clearly a solid player, but is he stocky enough physically to warrant the full package. Thomas Dunwoodie is another one, also Jeff Burke perhaps.
If you can think of the ultimate 'solid' player, then let me know. I know he's out there...

Everyone folded, apart from O'Connell who made the call. On the Qc turn, O'Connell checked, Smith bet 4,000 and, after a brief dwell, O'Connell made the fold. Smith showed the 9h.
"But what was with it?" asked O'Connell. "Could have been a nine."

'Rockstar' Conroy is forced to show...err...J-3, which surprisingly isn't ahead of LeKnave's 5-5.
Nick Hicks has won the DTD League and gets his very own James Mitchell and John Eames go at but without really going at it. The board reads 6s Qc 3s 7c and Eames checks to Mitchell who decides to check behind. On the Qs river, Eames bets 3,275 and Mitchell lets out one of those little exasperated smiles that scream I was ahead but not now...Mitchell folds Kc Kd face up while a wordless Eames rakes in the pot.

John 'Reggie' Perrin has tripled up with Aces against Kings against Jacks. He tripped up on the flop and hence tripled up on the river and is up to 15k. Looks like Andrew Fenwick just went out in spectacular fashion, all-in with 4h 3d against Qs Qc on a Aspades Qh 4c flop, no miracle turn card to even give him a glimmer of hope.

(That's my own personal name for him, every time I've seen him play or played in the same comp as him, he hits sets for fun).
He bet 11.1k on the river of a 2d Ac Jc Th 4d river, eliciting a call from the late arrival Zippy Aslam, who called with Aspades Kc but mucked when Eames showed 2c 2s. (http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=24023&g2_serialNumber=1) Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: snoopy1239 on December 04, 2008, 08:15:03 PM With the blinds at 150 and 300, we're starting to witness some meaty pots, players perhaps not as scared of being eliminated now as they would have been during the opening levels. One hand saw Billy Ngo and James Mitchell stick it all in preflop, the former of the two with his tournament life on the line. When the cards were revealed though, a split pot was on the cards (quite literally), with Mitchell's Ac Kd up against Ngo's Ahrt Kc. The 3c 2s Qc flop teased a possible up the bummydoor runner runner flush, but it wasn't to be as the turn and river came 6h and Qs respectively to chop it up. Ngo remains on just under 10,000.
Meanwhile, in other news, Scott Byron took a nice pot with 9-9 versus 6-5 on a 5-6-7-2-2 board to shoot over the 40,000 mark, whilst Richard Berridge was caught cookie dipping by Howard Plant who called a 3,500 bet on the river of Td 9c 5d 4c 2c board. "Queen high," declared Berridge chucking his cards into the muck. "Missed a massive draw." Not surprisingly, queen high didn't quite cut the mustard as the Magician scooped with Ks Th to see his stack jump to around the 35-40,000 level.

Smith lifted his cards an inch off the felt before saying, "Nice move in if you haven't got it" and showing Jh Js. This put Dewi back up to his starting stack.

A second glance revealed that there had been a raise and a reraise before him, Guntis Feldmanis opening for 850, only for Robert Whatsize to make it 2,275 the next seat down. With Linton ducking out of the way, the action stopped on Terry Fletcher, who I believe (I'm not positive) had limped from UTG. Fletcher called, Feldmanis passed and the two remaining players saw a 4c 8s Tc flop.
With Fletcher check-calling 3,000, he then check-called the same figure on the 3c turn before altering his approach and leading for 8,000 on the 6h river, leaving himself absolute shrapnel behind. Whatsize sighed briefly before declaring, "Well, if you have the flush, I have to pay you off" and making the call with 4d 4s. Fletcher, meanwhile, raked in a nice pot with 9s 7s, much to the frustration of his opponent and the bemusement of the other players.

Whittake now on 12,000, whilst Blanco still running strong with 30,000.

I can tell you it was with Jh Jc against Ad Qs though on a 5-6-9-7-T board.
Pete Linton has suffered a setback, he bet 6,100 on the river of a Qh Ks Jh Kh 8c board against Robert Whatsize...it was half of his remaining stack, since you asked.

Mrs Buckley Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: snoopy1239 on December 04, 2008, 09:10:25 PM A remarkable hand just took place at the far end of the room, a multi-way limped pot finding it's way over to a short-stacked Keith Farr in the small blind who pushed all in for 3,000. A bizarre domino effect then occurred where Richard Berridge shoved for 4,800, Liaquat Javed flat-called, and so did Adam Connell and Howard Plant leaving an incredible five players in the hand and a pot already bulging at the seams.
As Simon Trumper's microphone enticed a flurry of spectators like the pied piper of poker hands, the players proceeded to cautiously check down an Ahrt 3h 2c Kh 6d board, Plant showing Ac 5c for top pair, but being pipped by a gnat's testicle hair by Javed who scooped with Ad 8d. As Farr revealed 7c 7h and departed, he was quickly followed by a despondent Berridge, whilst O'Connell simply mucked. Meanwhile, Nick Hicks, who was seemingly the only player not in the hand, revealed that he would have "took the lot with A-6". Nevertheless, Hicks released his hand preflop, allowing Javed to win what in the end was a mammoth pot. But whilst all and sundry were amazed by the hand, a cool, stoic Javed simply raked in the chips with the nonchalance of Fonzarelli picking up the ladies.

He's pretty much being doing this all day whenever an all-in or huge pot has turned up.

Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: snoopy1239 on December 04, 2008, 09:23:03 PM Hi, Any more news on Jim "Tim Freeman" Buckley. Also how is Rob Whatsize doing after that hand? Mrs Buckley Jim has around 32,000. As I was counting his stack, he raised it up to 750 preflop and received two callers, but after checking the 9d Js 2h flop, snapped up the pot with a 1,500 bet on the 8d turn. Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: NoflopsHomer on December 04, 2008, 09:28:22 PM Mark Hayes has knocked out John (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=608) Conroy (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=608) and crippled Ben (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=47) Vinson (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=47), it was the old Kh Kd vs Qs Qh vs Jc Js with Hayes raising, Conroy pushing, Vinson calling and and Hayes calling all-in.
The board of 3h 5h 2c Ts 7d helped no-one and we're down to around 140 players. Vinson went out soon after. Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: snoopy1239 on December 04, 2008, 09:29:15 PM Double up for Peter Hambleton thanks to Paul Grummitt, 2c 2s versus Qc Td on a 5c 2h Ts. The 9d turn sealed the deal, although Grummitt seemed to continue requesting a ten. "Another one gone," announced Simon Trumper, but after a quick count, it emerged that Grummit still had around 3,000 left.

With the board reading Ks 5d Kh 8s, Luke Marsh looked home and dry with 8d 8c against an inferior Kd Tc, but a dramatic Kc on the river dashed any hopes of a scalp and kept McMillan alive. He now has just under 20,000 in chips.

Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: snoopy1239 on December 04, 2008, 09:39:09 PM It's important to understand that a live updater's duties aren't confined to the game of poker, but also the world of alcohol consumption, so as we creep into the third break of the day, I feel obliged, morally so, to report disappointing news. After a several hours of psychological warfare, Dewi James has finally cracked and made that inevitable journey to the bar. As I rode over on my moral high horse, Dewi tried his best to conceal the evidence, but whilst he hid his booty like a Welshman caught interfering with a sheep, he was unable to stop me snapping the evidence as he retook his seat. That crucial photo was taken from afar, but if we zoom in, you can clearly see that it isn't a pint of milk that Dewi has his greasy paws on.

After a quick glance at his opponent, Eames made the call. On the 8h river, Byrne checked to his foe who led for 15,300. With Eames' resting his chin on his hands and keeping his eyes fixated on the felt, Byrne made the call. Without too much hesistation, Eames showed 9d 9h, which, not too surprisingly, was enough to force Byrne's cards into the muck. Eames now on 80,000, but will be eame-ing (ahem) for more.

With his two opponents all in, Bain was looking good for a double scalp with Kc Ks versus the 8s 8d and Qc Qh of Chris Brammer and James Eflekhari respectively. With the rest of the room secretly praying for a testicle-cruncher on the river, no such entertainment was provided, the board coming an uneventful 7d Ts 5c 5d Aspades to send both men on their merry way.

Maria is back up to about 28k once more, around average stack. Pete Linton is down to 8k, he turned Aces up with A-T but ran into Paul Gourlay's set. This was off the back of another hand where he flopped a straight and flush draw with two overs, pushed in on the turn when the board paired and he thought his opponent was weak. Sadly, his timing proved off as his opponent had flopped a straight and Pete is now looking in trouble.

Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: snoopy1239 on December 04, 2008, 10:50:18 PM Very little action report at the moment (where's a donkfest when you need one), the spacious structure perhaps meaning players don't need to shove at every possible moment. Trundling through the cardroom, I did spot a double up for local boy Waheed Ashraf. Ashraf, who has been yoyo-ing all day but never really threatened to leap above his starting stack, managed to get his remaining 8,000 all in in cracking shape, his Aspades Ac looking to dodge four outs or a nasty runner runner against Dennis Troake's inferior Kh Qh. The 2d turn was safe, and although a jack would have delivered a gutshot in more ways than one, it didn't emerge as the dealer popped out a harmless 4d on the river.

Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: snoopy1239 on December 04, 2008, 11:05:08 PM A ripple of laughter and belly clutched reeled me over to one table, players giggling profusely as if at a Cannon and Ball gig. "What's the joke?" I asked Matt Russell, desperate not be excluded from all the fun and potential witty banter. And I was right not to wish exclusion, as the wittiness of the banter was at nosebleed levels. "This guy over here [Paul Kemp] was receiving a massage and this guy [Philip Ashton] was asking if he had a 'touch on'." "He doesn't have a touch on often," added Ashton. Although I joined in with the laughter like I was one of the gang, I couldn't help but ask Matt privately, "What's a touch on?" Surprised by my naivety, and perhaps inexperience in this particular area, he quickly informed me that this was a term used for sexual arousal of the male organ.
I wish I hadn't asked, it was funnier when I didn't know.

Malc-M Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: NoflopsHomer on December 04, 2008, 11:19:23 PM Interesting hand between John Eames and Raj Dhiri. Interesting because any hand John Eames plays invariably has him flopping a set, quads or something else equally ludicrous.
Anyway, on the turn of a Js Jh Td 5c board, Eames bets 4,550 and Dhiri does the whole, "I've got a big decision so I better stand up" type thing. Eames just sits looking bored. There's the usual, "Will you show when I pass?" type stuff etc...then Dhiri flips his cards over to show pocket Queens, despite not having folded yet. (http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=24067&g2_serialNumber=1) There's a ruling and Dhiri's hand is still live but afterwards he's going to suffer a one round penalty. He folds anyway and goes off for a smoke. Afterwards, I think Eames tells his tablemates he did have Dhiri beat (he would say that though!) though in the photo it looks like Eames is saying, "So I told Jeeves, 'Get my rifle at once, squire!' Oh, don't you know?"

Whilst Kennedy leaps up to 45, a disgruntled Meless is left with a meager 4,000 and a face like a firmly smacked bottom.

On a Ad Ahrt Jc flop, Kemp led for 4,000, only for Phillips to inquire on Kemp's remaining stack. "Eight thousand and twenty five," came the answer as Phillips continued to mull over his options. After fingering his chips momentarily, Phillips opted to put his man all in, a move which severely displeased Kemp. "I thought I'd raised more preflop," he said.
After a a few moments of squirming in his seat, Kemp eventually turned over Qc Qd and threw his cards into the muck. Phillips showed Kc Jd, which triggered a sharp exit from an infuiated Kemp who stormed towards the bar area. With Kemp regaining his composure elsewhere, Phillips added, "I did it because I knew he was going to fold."

But one time in five, things are going pearshaped for the nut preflop hand, and on this occasion, the force was with the Hickster as he spiked another cowboy turning things for Karabiner from the good to the bad and the just plain ol' ugly. Can Nick spend the rest of the night picking up a few dollars more? Either way, Ralph has simply shrugged his shoulders about the hand saying it's one of those things, so at least Nick won't remain unforgiven.

Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: snoopy1239 on December 05, 2008, 12:59:06 AM With the board reading 3c 6s 2c 7c Td, Paul McTaggart led out for 3,500, leaving 22,000 behind. After a short dwell, Alan (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=1315) Stearn (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=1315) declared, "Well, effectively I only have ace high," and making the fold. I think it was later unearthed that he there was nothing effective about it, rather he did indeed have ace high. Either way, McTaggart (who sounds like a very Scottish detective might I add) took down the pot and now has around 30,000.
Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: NoflopsHomer on December 05, 2008, 01:03:26 AM Zippy Aslam has taken a big pot of Jon Kalmar
The pot already looked big on the turn with the board reading Qs Tc 5c 8s where Kalmar check/raised Zippy's 2,700 bet to about 7,700. Zippy made the call after some serious deliberation with only about 10k behind. The river was a draw-making Jc. Kalmar checked and Zippy moved in. "I knew you were on a draw!" bemoaned Kalmar before folding and a silent Zippy stacked his chips. Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: snoopy1239 on December 05, 2008, 01:03:59 AM This scoop comes courtesy of Fran, so send any virtual insults her way if the information is incorrect. Anyhow, according to my ringside detective, Daniel Rudd has doubled up with T-8 versus Q-T on a 9-7-T flop, the man from Grimsby hitting a six of the end for the rivered straight. "I think he has around 25,000 or 30,000, but don't write that because I'm unreliable."

But one time in five, things are going pearshaped for the nut preflop hand, and on this occasion, the force was with the Hickster as he spiked another cowboy turning things for Karabiner from the good to the bad and the just plain ol' ugly. Can Nick spend the rest of the night picking up a few dollars more? Either way, Ralph has simply shrugged his shoulders about the hand saying it's one of those things, so at least Nick won't remain unforgiven. Nick Hicks is a marked man. Not only does pwn me.

Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: snoopy1239 on December 05, 2008, 01:14:06 AM Pete Charalmbous raised to 1,450 preflop, Ben (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=1248) Mayhew (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=1248) flat-called, only for Greek Jack to bump it up to 3,700. Both opponents called.
On the Kc Ts 7s flop, Jack led for 6,000, Charlambous passed and Mayhew called. A Js turn triggered an all-in from Jack, to the tune of 22,500 which, after a pause of around three or four minutes, was called by Mayhew who showed Jc Tc. Jack had 9s 9d. The river was a blank and a big pot, as well as the scalp of Jack, went to the man from Bury St-Edmunds. "I was made to sweat there," concluded a relieved Mayhew as Charalambous cursed his folding of pocket jacks.

Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: snoopy1239 on December 05, 2008, 01:18:00 AM Paul Kemp is OUT. He raised it up to 1,500 with Aspades Ks, James Harcourt put him all in for 8,000 wtih Qh Td and Kemp called. Although caught red-handed, Harcourt managed to river a cruel Broadway on an ensuing Jd Kd 2s 5s Ad board, much to the frustration of Kemp who was visibly upset as he the final card was dealt.
Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: NoflopsHomer on December 05, 2008, 01:23:19 AM any pictures of matthew lewis and danny cochren? Here are your two. The former of which is now in Tom Rutter's seat since Dr Rutter isn't taking any more patients tonight, he's out. Tom just flatted an initial raise with Queens expecting the aggressive button to reraise most hands. This he did, and the OR flat-called, Tom now moved in and the button eventually made a call with the OR folding. The button showed a hand at the top of his range, A-K which spiked a Barry Greenstein special to leave us left yelling, "Is there a doctor in the house???" The answer is now, "No." (http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=24083&g2_serialNumber=1) (http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=24085&g2_serialNumber=1) Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: NoflopsHomer on December 05, 2008, 01:25:51 AM Around half an hour left now.

*May not be true. Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: snoopy1239 on December 05, 2008, 01:33:16 AM Earlier on in the level, there was a mammoth hand that provided us with a new chip leader in Peter Wilson. On a Q-T-6 flop, Wilson was fortunate enough to not only flop a set of queens, but find both his opponents sitting on sets also, Peter Garrett and Guntis Feldmanis flopping sixes and tens respectively. No miracle turn or river, and a monster monster pot (hail Eric Hall) went sailing Wilson's way. A quick count signalled a rather splendid 125,000 stack.
(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=24089&g2_serialNumber=1) "Come on, let's get a better one than that," requested Wilson.

John Sadler was the unfortunate recipient.
"Tell em how many times you've got it in behind," urged Andy O'Flaherty. "Twice," replied Rudd meekly. "Twice that you know off," added O'Flaherty.

Well, as I walked past he was betting 9,300 on the river of a Tc 9s 5c 3s 5s and was quickly called.
Eames turned over Ts Th, for only the top full house. One of the other players said to me, "Go away! Last time you were here he made quads against me" So now I report Eames isn't being hit in the face by the deck. The deck is beating the crap out of him like he was Joe Pesci at the end of Casino or something.

Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: snoopy1239 on December 05, 2008, 01:59:33 AM 91 players remain.
With just several minutes left on the clock, Dewi James bet 3,000 onto a Js 4h Qh 8c before attempting numerous verbal techniques to persuade one of is his two opponents to call. Sadly for the Welshman, neither did, although he showed them Qh Jc nevertheless. James on circa 30,000, maybe a tad less. Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: snoopy1239 on December 05, 2008, 02:03:47 AM Right at the death, Ricky Smith eliminated a short-stack with Js 9h versus Ac Qd, all in on the flop of a Jc 5s 2h Th Jd board.
Meanwhile, there was an tense clash between Neil Giblin and Zahir Aslam on a neighbouring table. Giblin made it 1,200 preflop from late position, Aslam defended from the big blind and the two players saw an Ac 8d 2c flop. Aslam checked, Giblin bet 1,900, Aslam raised to 5,100 and Giblin pushed all in. It was 24,500 for Aslam to call, but after giving his opponent the Spanish Inquisition, eventually opted for the fold. Aslam was clearly curious as the holding of Giblin, but was only able to persuade him to show one card, which was a carefully selected Ahrt. Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: snoopy1239 on December 05, 2008, 02:08:35 AM 90 players made it to the end of the day. These are the ones that didn't:

Afterwards he said, "I am William Wallace. And I see a whole army of my countrymen, here in defiance of nits and passive donks! You have come to play poker as free men. And free men you are! What will you do without calling stations? Will you play poker?" "Two thousand chips against ten thousand?" - a veteran shouted. "I'm not a short stack grinder like Mickey Wernick. No! We will cash out - and live!" "Yes!" Wallace shouted back. "Play poker and you may busto. Cash out and you will not be skint for at least a while. And dying in your bed many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days from this day to that for one chance, just one chance, to come back here as young men and tell our enemies that they may take our bankrolls but they will never take our ability to stick it in their eye at the vital moment!" True story. Title: Re: DTD Anniversary Cup - Day 1 Post by: NoflopsHomer on December 05, 2008, 02:16:37 AM Play has now finished for the day. Chip Counts to follow.

I hadn't noticed this EPT result come through but watching that video I just realised he is the guy I hung out with a bit in Slovenia about a year ago along with Alan and Luke Vinnicombe.
