Hello and Welcome back to DTD for the latest renewal of the DTD Monthly Deepstack, this time updated by Myself and Sharplea.

Last month's event was a corker. Won by Daniel "Kinboshi" Phillips and set alight by the play of Andrienna "dreenie" Nutt.

Will this month's be similar? Well not in one respect because, priorities all wrong, Mr Phillips is in Nevada but the Monthly Deepstack, now the pre-eminent monthly on the tournament calendar in my opinion, always throws up a story or two and Sharplea and I will bring those to you over the next 48 hours.


Play begins at 3pm, and around or about 300 runners are expected to play.


If you would like us to follow a friend or family member, please ask on here, and join us later on for the action.....

cant make it today, will be at Luton on the 24th, gl to Andy Wright(bro) Brian Scott(percentage man) and Richard Blacklock(nice cash last night pal)

Good luck to Al Armifish and any other APAT'ers playing

A bunch of the Sky Poker boys are playing this, including the Swindon Massive headed by James Williams, Charles Flash Flush Overton, and The Fish Brownndog (Lewis). etc. Good luck them.

To get the essential stuff out of the way before I get busy later


DTD pay for these updates, and they wouldn't be possible without them and we're incredibly grateful for DTD's support

Any support of the DTD Online cardroom via blonde Poker (see the banners on the forum) would be greatly appreciated to not only keep these updates going but also to allow us to do GUKPTs and the like, and then investing further in the site as and when we can.

You can do support for example by playing MTTs in the current blonde League....http://blondepoker.com/forum/index.php?topic=49397.0

Added value of two DTD Deepstack/£200 seats in that, again provided by DTD

or playing some events in the €60,000 Gadget giveaway in September http://www.dtdpoker.com/60k-gadget-giveaway.php

or just merely contributing some of your online play our way.


Thanks in advance

Can't believe you posted the list without blonde members in bold and their forum names next to them.  Get a move on man!

WTF? Drainy? Don't they have a minimum standard requirement?

Gogogo Drainy and Pep

Good luck to all blondes playing this.

Unfortunately, I'll have to make do with playing the $300 deepstack at the Venetian instead this month ;)

done

I also believe Sir Donksalot and Lucky are in transit to this sceptred venue.

Sharplea got his camera there? Think we'd all like to see Part II of the Dean Morris interview if poss.

*6pt bonus if able to work the word 'flotsam' into a question

Depends on Broadband/upload speeds...and whether we can fit his head in shot.

What time does late reg end?

Wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

TY kind Sir and gl gl gl to all the blondes!!!

Good luck all the Luton regulars....I think we all want a shot of Drainy with at least 7 empty Kronenburgs  ;applause;

3 levels I believe, 5.15pm

Best to ring and check

best of luck to the blondes...would have loved to play this had i been well (never touching kebab's again, dodgy things) so will try to qualify for next month :D

wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

Made it, which was looking rather doubtful when I hit the A51 at 11:30am (planned arrival in Notts, 1pm) and got stuck behind a tractor. Which refused to pull over. 5 miles, 3 near crashes and 3 bottles of water later, Joobs manages to get past it and we head for the A500. Well, until we found the road blocked due to a 3-car head on collision.

Diversions later, we manage to make it to our hotel for 2pm, so after the obligatory 3 s's (only one was successful - try and guess which), I've finally arrived here just in time for the start. So, shoutouts, requests, interviews with the flotsam...all will be here. Enjoy the next 2 days as we try to get every big hand (and miss quite a few of them!)

I see the Wrights are in town, gl guys

GL to all blondes playing today! Might have to play this next month!!

On unlucky table 13 seat 2....good luck to all my fellow Blondeites!

215 registered as we start with people still queuing to buy in. Late reg still open.

Current seating as we start - at 15:04

Simon Trumper has just made a major announcement.

He said that the £300 has been running now for 31 months, and 3000 unique players have played the event ever since its inception. Because of this, DTD have now decided that they are going to...

RUN THE DTD £300 DEEPSTACK TWICE A MONTH

The tournament will now run on the 1st and 3rd weekend of every month!

Lewis Harper is the first man out this month.

I arrived after the Th 4c 3s flop had been dealt, with Sinem Melin betting 650. Short-stacked Harper then shoved for about 2700, and Melin made the call holding 3c 4s, a sneaky bottom two pair ahead against Harper's Qs Qc. The turn and river came 8s and Js, giving Melin the pot and sending Harper to the rail 10 minutes after the tournament started.

In early Das action, he raised UTG to 150 and got half the table calling, only for BB Lawrence Townsend to bump it up to 750. Das was the only caller and the two saw a flop of Ts 8h Th. Townsend fired out 200 into the pot of 2100 and Das called. The turn was the 2c and Townsend again fired 600. Das tanked but eventually passed.

Darren Allen interview pre-tournament

YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PxsfQEoTWH0

Not often those two words are in the same sentence.

LOOOOOL, gl LRRH

Great interview with Darren!   rotflmfao

good quality vid too

Matt Russell is out.

He found Kings on a Qs 9h 3s board and got it all in against TommyC, who had 8s 9s. The turn was the Ks, giving Matt a sweat as Tommy had the flush...the river was a blank and Matt is now headed to Nandos as Tommy chips up.

(http://lh5.ggpht.com/_M7mySuUsa6c/TIJZI0srtbI/AAAAAAAAM9Q/svZnAnLanX4/IMG_3661.JPG)

There's a "debate" going on over at table 22, and it's all related to Wales vs England and who's better after the APAT Team Championships last week. Which Wales somehow won. And England came last.

Whilst the "debate" rages, Chris Alexander flopped the proverbial canine dangly-bits holding Ks 5s on a 4s 8s Aspades flop. He bet flop and turn, only to see the board be completed by Ad 8h. His opponent, the brilliantly named Anon, then bet 1600 on the river which lead Mr Alexander to complain loudly and fold face up.

Sigh 25 minutes late and an alternated. Good game m25 and m1

Please please, no one get knocked out and make Sicilidonk drive all that way and not get to play.

Good luck to all blondes and Tony H and Pep.

Combustible line up including Greek Jack, DMorgan, Britsh Gas and a gentleman called Tony Poole. Mr Poole is a builder in the Home Counties.

Poker players in Luton have devised a system. One spots him in a cash game at Luton and sends a text, this gets sent on until they all simultaneously converge on the last space in the car Park and run tongues lolling towards the waiting list.

The man has game. and Money.

This man has promised me an interview in the break....

Lee Nayler was happy when he found himself holding 5c 5s on a 5d Jh Kc flop. Unfortunately for Lee however, his opponent (Tariq Arees) had Ks Kh! Unsurprisingly, they both got it all in and Lee missed his one-outer.

Dean Morris has a seat. Sorry Celtic!

Over on Table Mr Alien, John Stritch raised to 350 from UTG. He got one caller in Colburn Tomlin, and it went heads up to the flop of 5c 7h Kh. 625 from Mr Stritch and Mr Tomlin called. The turn came 2c and John fired 2000. This was enough, as Colburn folded - showing the Kc.

Craig Wakeham found himself heads up with Harry Punter after betting 1500 on the turn of a Ks Th 7h 2s board. The river was 8s and Wakeham checked. Punter punted out 1500 and Wakeham made the crying call to be shown Jh 9h for the monster draw that hit. Craig flashed Aspades Ac as they went into the muck.

ian thorburn up date and photo please so pleased with his win in the 200 comp he got all his m8s a chinky and a pint at the home game then gave em 1500 of  his winnings on the cash game lol

Here is the Scarf, going for a consecutive hat-trick of Deepstack finals...

I caught up with Peter Charalambous to go through his exit


"I played like Dog****" was his opening gambit

I pressed on and asked for more.....

"Two limpers and I made it 525 with  Kc Qc" he siad

"I was down to 4800 and on tilt"

"The original limper makes it 1250 and I call, bad call"

"flop  Tc Jd 4d, he checks and I bet 1650, He check-raises me all in and I call the last 2000 off"

"He shows  Ahrt Ad and it comes diamond diamond to give him the nuts"

third weekend of every month


no idea on the 200 and the guarantee, will ask later

Chris Alexander is now out and not very happy about it. He got it all in against Anon again with 10-10 vs  K-Q on a K-K-3 flop. No help on the turn and river saw Chris head to the rail.

is anon any relation to gamblers anon or alcoholics anon?

David mount, jamie giles and neil harvey updates plz

Round with tighty on table hicks/deadman/Vinson pls.

Gl to Frankie and simon deadman as usual. In with the bok later on

Quick chat with Simon...

The new tournament starts this month. It will be guaranteed at £40,000 due to the massive competition in London (EPT/WSOPE et al). DTD are going to look at the turnout of this month, but current plans are probably to guarantee both at £50,000 for a total of £100,000 guaranteed per month in £300's alone, before £150's etc are accounted on top.

Rupinder Bedi is out. Short, he got it all in on the turn with J-9 on a 9-9-x-8 board only to see his opponent flip 9-8 for the turned FH. No J on the river and George has left the building.

Players are now on a 25 minute break.

At the break, the total number of entrants is 270. This means we have an £81,000 prize pool, paying 27.

James "skolsuper" Keys sharing a table with James Williams

According to Williams Keys has "already made one fantastic call against me" and according to the dealer on the table I had to photograph the "winner of this event"

Brijesh Das is out. No details unfortunately.

Alan "Lucky" McBride, fresh back from a month in South America playing $100 rebuys in lima

Won the £75 at Luton last night, spinning up here


Second hand in had KK v AA. Opponent didn't re-raise pre flop so he, according to a text I received "got away lightly on an Ace high flop, so feel like I am freerolling now!"


To be fair Alan's whole life is toasty, this is the least of it...

Welcome to blonde!

Liam, unfortunately, is down to 4.5k and has one of the hardest jobs in poker, playing OOP to James "Cottonbud" Williams whilst having James "skolsuper" Keys raising into him!

Oh man.  That can't be fun.  Good luck to him!

And we're back.

A new table has been added, entries currently at 280.

and that new table includes Sam Trickett, fresh back from finalling EPT Vilamoura.

My main focus is on emptying the bar obv
Proper poker comes laterz obv
DrainyFish(obv)

He's just taken down a nice pot. 6 limpers, including Liam and James Keys, all checked a Kh Kc 5c flop. Liam then bet 500 on the 6c turn after it was checked to him, getting one caller in Jason Elliott. The river was the 5d and Liam bet 1500, enough to make Jason fold.

Can't even stop posting when playing a £300 comp... *shakes head*

On its way for you sir. Tighty is sat at that table as we speak post.

I was down to 2k because of this hand. Then 77 vs KK. Such a ridic soft table in comparison to table 2!

update on bigalhx please table 22, thanks.

Thank you for reading A Round with Tighty, this has been a sore fat fingers Production

 

Good luck to TommyC.

Seriously can't think of anyone I'd rather lose my chips to. Top bloke.

Despite my exit I still feel like a winner as tonight I shall be mostly getting totally smashed with a load of hot women.

Enjoy the poker boys :)

Julian Thew just lost a 8k pot after calling 2500 on the river of a 6d 3h 3s 4d Js board. Jason Barton showed 5d 3d to scoop.

Tim Wright just doubled up after shoving all in on a J-2-Q flop. His opponent, Ian Wright, had A-J and called, only to be shown K-K. No help on the 10 turn or 8 river and Tim Wright is still in.

New vid ?

We're approaching the second break at the end of 4 levels

currently there are 203 left from 284 starters fighting over the £85,200 prize pool with 27 paid


After the break I'll do another round with Tighty, probably the Cottonbud/skolsuper table.


23   1   Rab Bain
23   2   James Keys
23   3   Julian Mann
23   4   Harvey Butters
23   5   Liam Batey

23   7   Barry Cobb
23   8   Simon Cawley
23   9   Jason Elliot


unless there is an overwhelming suggestion to the contrary

No, carry on Sir.

Over on Table Alien Sr, Drainy just had to fold on a 8c Ks Th flop after betting 1500 when checked to, only to see Jimmy Cairns check-raise to 4000. Maybe Drainy will read this and tell the world what he had, because he looked rather annoyed at having to fold...

Andy O'Flaherty wasn't happy when he turned a flush holding 2h 4h on a Th 8h 7d Qh board, only to see the Jh on the river and Vincent Price move all in. Andy mucked and claimed "I would've called against a strong table but on this table I know I can get 'em back!"

I can hear Ade Bayo from here - he's down by the cash desk and I'm in the top right hand corner. Says it all, really, easily the loudest man in the room. It's working for him again...

Players are now on a 25 minute break.

25 minute breaks today as a few dealers were no-shows...short of dealers then and having to ensure everyone gets proper breaks with 350+ players in the building tournaments/cash

Lolz
Apparently there's no such thing as poker etiquette
Chompy- u have to watch the video
Much lol'age

10 minute interview with Ade in the can

I wish I could upload it now, sigh


Dynamite

haha - you asked him 1 question and the went froom there>?

sort of, I tried to stop it after 5 minutes, and ended up going further underwater and struggling to stop him lol

And we're back.

Blinds are 100/200-25. 197 left and average chips is 14,416.

Canna wait for this one.
Please get Mr Trumpet to put a call out to all players to ask them to stop using their mobiles so you can get it uploaded...
And Sir Donkeys' masterpiece, omg, omg omg.
It feelis like Xmas Eve used to as a young'un.

First hand back....
My KK RRAI vs JJ and 88 obv can't win
Marv

Yet you're still in, Mr Drainy!

As is Dean Morris, who now has about 25k. I asked him "get all those outplaying the flotsam down the streets?" He simply said "Yeah, easy when you get Aces innit". Tommy C on the same table has taken a massive hit - so I'm naturally assuming he was the unlucky player.

Tytyty for round with tighty.

Sounds like a busy month. Good to hear it's going twice a month too, hopefully it'll work (too much of a good thing and all that...)

sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Tommy C updates pls!

Joobs has just arrived and was talking to me as I joined table 25. She commented that I was teaching her how to update, and Jim Reid & Andy Brennan then tell me to watch as they play a hand as bad as can be played. Jim then min raises to 400 and Brennan passes, but Steve Nash and the blinds call. The flop comes down 7-7-Q and it's checked to Jim who fires 800. All fold to laughter as Jim shows the 7s. Afterwards, one of the players says "I'd have called but when the second 7 came down you did this" and then proceeded to do some sort of weird motion with their face!

how the luton regs getting on plz

chip count for Andy Wright, Brian Scott, Richard Blacklock, ty guys

Back up to about 23k - doubled up through none other than Dean Morris!

284 total, 155 left - not too sure on the top 10 chip leaders, will wait for official chip counts.

Really? Sicilidonk told me both traceys were there. He must be mistaken, i'll just double check with him and let you know...

Darren Allen displays confidence ahead of the £30 event he has just sat down in

7.5k.

chip counts neil wallace graham pound & peter wigglesworth please

tommy c updates and chip counts

Dean Morris sidles over, shoulders slumped


"I have just played a monster hand with Tommy C" he reports


"Tommy motherf***ingc has been min raising and folding

He min raises again and gets a call from the small blind. I re-raise

He dwells and 4 bets. Doesn't look happy.

I 5-bet shove him, and he has a hand for the first time with Kings

My K6hh doesn't stand up too well against that, and I do 55,000 chips to him true donk style. Slight misread"

Now he has gone from the table he said two things to me

a) Can I edit that post please?


b) What is a smallball player like me doing 5-bet shoving?


good value is Dean  ;D

and now just OUT

Wallace - 8k
Wigglesworth - 26k
Pound - OUT.

17.6k for the squirrel.

Tommy Cunningham appears to the beneficiary of astounding largesse in this competition. I suppose his aggressive style gets him some gifts along the way


I join the latest hand with him betting 2,200 on a flop of

 5d 5h 9d

and receiving a call on the button from Neil Wallace


On a  4d turn Tommy bets 4,500 and Mr Wallace pushes for 10,000 with about as much fold equity as a retired Origami expert who has lost the use of his hands


Tommy insta calls with  Ahrt 9h

Wallace shows the donktastic  9c 2d, having called a pre-flop raise

Well, at least he has a re-draw to diamonds


river  Qs


and Tommy Cunningham is our chip leader with 80,000

Interview with Ade Bayo. Drinks required before you click the play button!!!

tx Adam

jamie giles updates/pics

Have you got chip counts for Chris Sly and Neil Harvey? GL to them both, specially Chris, about time he binked one of these, runs deep time and time again :-)

Someone hurry and knock this punterrrrrrrrrrr out!!!! - He is a disgrace to poker!!!!!

Jamie went out in 160th mate, sorry!

Chris went out ages ago Dreenie, but Neil is still in and has 12k.

;smackedbottom;  dont do that again

I thought it might have just happened as I went over to get Neil Harvey's chip count. Ade had knocked out Niklas Astedt when he had K-9 on a 9-9-2-10-2 board, with Niklas having A-A. Neil said to me "You might wanna get that rubdown, he (Ade) turned to the other guy and said "nice call" when the other guy (Niklas) had called all in on the river!" As Neil was telling me this, Niklas literally stormed out of the club...

Can I have a chip count for Drainy please.

There is a huge cry from table Wernick and I arrive to see Robert Clarke with  5h 5d and Joseph Kershaw with  3c 4c

all in on a flop of  8c 2c 5s


the result is shown below, as Kershaw hits his huge draw, and Clarke the neccessary pair up on the river to knock Kershaw out

Interview (Part II) with The Sicilian before start of play today.

Thanks Adam
Just checking
;-)

Tommy C's table has been broken and he is 2 to the right of the Mad Turk. A chipped up Mad Turk.

This could get very interesting...

Bodo Wagner, also one of the chip leaders

thats how bad the guy is, playing a big pot with K9, one of the worst starting hands in hold em, to say he's blessed is an understatement, come on Haarvey knock this imbecile out!!!!!!!

The chipped up and ever helpful Jonathon Butters

(http://lh6.ggpht.com/_M7mySuUsa6c/TIKrwcbu1iI/AAAAAAAANGk/oSpAxHZv9zk/IMG_3706.JPG)

how is jason herbert from scunny getting on please hes on table 3 seat 2 i believe , can you grab a quick pic of him , i think he may have his hoodie (which is superglued on ) on again !!!lol

Two OUTSTANDING interviews and one INCRED lookalike. I can but bow down sir.

Thewy and Deadman chip counts pls

that is superb.

im gonna see if i can find a ginger wig for chompy.

To be honest Graham I let you all down a bit on the Ade one, wasn't sure of my facts enough on the specific instances. Live and learn

I'm off to bed, on life tilt, for seeing this poor excuse of a man, playing so badly and giving everyone and anyone a rub, Gl Neil Harvey, win it plz, hopefully I will be back next month to win it for once in my life lol, gooooooooooooood luckkkkkkkkkkkkkkk ppl, ( - the rub down mofo) :-)

gogogoogogogogooooogoggo tommy cccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc

Good luck to my hero Julian "yo yo " thew if he is still in, he deserves to win, glglglgl

Meh, it was like a combo of mine and Bad Beat's incidents. Both rancid efforts from Andy Abrahams' manager.

Really wouldn't make a difference if you got it right or wrong imo. If you'd hit him with my case he'd have prob said 'I was wrong there, but that's poker'. If you'd cited Neil's case you have got the same response.

Still, ten minutes of gripping interviewing. Gotta love Ade.

Thewy 20,000

Herbert 30,000.

He's taken the trademark Ed Harvey off, but only for a Massage.....


(http://lh5.ggpht.com/_M7mySuUsa6c/TIKtmOV-DkI/AAAAAAAANGs/xmC9OfGgx8A/IMG_3707.JPG)

chip counts for Brian Scott and Richard Blacklock, ty

James Keys just got KO'd by James Williams, after Keys shoved preflop for 15k over Jason Elliott's 1600 raise (second time in 3 hands) with 8s 9s and found Williams in the blinds with Ad Ks. Eliott got out of the way and Keys failed to bink on the 5h 4d 2h Tc 6s board.

LOVING the interview with Ade and yes Tighty he did own you a bit, but I can't wait for round 2 'cos I know you are going to knock him out.

[not sure why I have suddenly started thinking of boxing, something about the loving myself quotes reminded me of many boxers who use this style]

Blacklock is up to 30k after I found him all in on a 7h 4d 8d Qc Jh board with 20k in the pot already and Julian Thew in the tank. It would have cost Thewy all his chips to call but he decided, rather unhappily, to pass.

Brian Scott has also just doubled up with Ahrt Qc against the Kc Jd of Kevin Pearce. It all went in on a Qd 6d Td flop, and Brian faded all Kevin's outs on the Jh turn and Tc river.

Thewy - 10k after that Blacklock confrontation

Deadman - 2500

80k and having a lot of fun, every time I pass by his table he's raking in pots!

On a  Jh 2s 4d flop Adebayo bets and Harvey on the button calls, raised pot pre-flop

check check on the  Jh turn

check check on the  8d river


Adebayo checks. Harvey ponders


Adebayo "Look, I might have it, I might have missed, if you are going to do something just hurry up and do it"

Harvey takes his IPod headphones out, chews gum and says to Adebayo "Nah, I've got this" and flips  9s 9d to win as Adebayo mucks

Richard Whiteley is out, he was all in with 10-8 and ran into Jonathan Titcombe's Q-Q.

Nigel Ventre just followed him through the door as well, his 8-8 no match for Dave Metcalf's Q-J.

Unbelievably, only 94 left and I'm pretty sure we have 4 levels to go as well as 10 mins of the current one!

My boys are running good

Fields - 17k

James cottonbud Williams interview coming up.....

Break now, end of Level 8


Official chip count process starting now....

could you tell me if brian sheperd and garathe mitchell are still in

20,000

His mentor and muse, confidant and mate Graham Pound is out though

Both out, unfortunately.

Can't believe you missed the goall there Tighty.  He left the net WIDE open at the end of the interview and you kicked it wide FFS!!!  Go back and listen to the last minute of it.  He challenges you to mention ANY time where he's been nasty to another human being in poker or otherwise.  Pretty sure Mrs. Drainy would have something to say there!

Not Mrs Drainy, Mrs Rockstar....I had already spoken to him off camera about that. It was not for public consumption.

Ah yeah.  Knew it was one of our Mrs. Ladies.  Not surprising he couldn't face the camera for that one.

haha deals for a month and she's already peoples favorites...she is a legend though :D

Keith Johnson, DTD regular, is out. He was eliminated by another DTD regular in Jason Herbert, who's Aspades 9s was dominating Keith's Jh 9c short-stacked shove preflop. The board ran out 7-A-3-4-2 to send Keith to the rail cash tables.

sharplea ive got immense respect for you...how did you last nine minutes seriously?

He didn't. I lasted 9.56. Quite a feat for me, Ade has that effect on one.

aha do appologise didnt realise...10 minutes...my lord people owe you drinks for that, you should have took side action for lasting that long youd have made a fortune for sure :)

oh and any info on the second £300, will it be euro ranked? if not which one will take that honour?

Tighty did the interview - I'd have lasted 9.56 seconds I reckon!

cheers for the updates guys great work, need any help in the future im always down there so let me know :D

Tommy C just lost a 45k pot by doubling up Dave Metcalf when the latter had Ac 2c on a Qc 8c Aspades flop and pushed. Tommy called with what he probably thought was the drawtastic 9c Tc only to find he had 3 outs. None hit and Tommy is back to about 50k.

mere flesh wound

Greek Jack is fuming as he calls the push of Christopher Goodson with  Aspades Ks, is up against  Ad Kc which four flushes in diamonds to double Goodson up

Hoping to get an interview with Rob Yong before the end of the night on the 2nd Monthly £300


Currently he is in a £5-10 NLHE Cash game £1k min sit down with Sam Trickett and, amongst others, Luton's Tony Poole.

Kevin Pearce just doubled through Marcus Karlsson with J-J winning the race against Marcus' A-Q on a 3-5-4-3-8 board. It all went in preflop.

Jalal Rasoul just doubled through when his A-K was good on a 8-J-10-7-10 board.

Simon Deadman took a nice pot from Jason Herbert by shoving over the top of Herbert's 7k bet on a 7-9-7-7 board. herbert folded and Deadman cheekily flipped A-10.

lol tony on the cash table might well be worth driving to dtd just to play cash

also on the cash table Keith Johnson and Ramsey Arjam. Four others I don't recognise


I am not allowed to photograph it or report it sadly. and it's roped off, presumably to stop Tony leaving too easily.

Yeah, just don'e touch her button though - you should have seen the trouble Rudders Jnr got into last week for "moving her button"

Yeah, there was definitely a touch of early Chris Eubank about him

Harvey Butters, son of Jonathon, doubles up....


(http://lh5.ggpht.com/_M7mySuUsa6c/TILJgSpJK4I/AAAAAAAANI8/o-WJAeU2VMM/IMG_3716.JPG)

oh god yeah shes always been like that lol, she was on the same training course as me and she didnt like it then either xD we might be the cause of that im not sure ah well haha

tighty... can u ask wigglesworth who sponsered the blue blood members today plz??  

Can i get a chip count for Ben Vinson please? tyty

Tom Cunningham and Peter Wigglesworth play out a sizeable pot


Tom limps for 1,200 in mid position is called in three spots and Wigglesworth in the big blind checks

flop  7s 8s 4c is checked round

turn  5s

checked to Tom he bets 2,400 called by small blind and Wigglesworth

River   9s, which makes for an interesting board


check, check and Tom bets 4,000. The small blind calls and Wigglesworth check raises to 16,000


Tom thinks and thinks, presumably with a big spade, and calls

Small blind gets out the the way and Wigglesworth flips  Qd 6s for turned straight and rivered straight flush.

Brian Scott is out, he got it all in preflop holding Ks Kc against Ben Vinson's Th Tc, but the 9s 7c Ts 9d 7d was enough to send Brian to the rail.

2 hands later on the same table, Jason Herbert raised to 3.6k from the button, only to find Daren Braddick move all in from the BB, covering Jason. Jason called and flipped Aspades 9s to race against Daren's 8s 8c. The board ran out 6h 7d Qc Th 9c to give Daren the straight and send Jason to the rail.

Down to 7 tables already, still got 2 levels and 20 minutes left tonight!

Cardiff's Rana Gurnam, another talented tournament player, going well today

(http://lh3.ggpht.com/_M7mySuUsa6c/TILNJaFHonI/AAAAAAAANJQ/gdwrnRvBT1g/IMG_3718.JPG)

85,000 for Ben.

63 left, 10 minutes of 600/1200/100 to go

Average is 43,700


Chip leaders 110,000 or so

I'm not meant to report it, so lets keep this between you and me...but there's £50,000 on that £5-10 table and Sam Trickett is playing 10 bags deep.....

sweet mercy...

Mark Attridge has just added about 30k to his chip stack when he knocked out Vishal Dhanak with A-K vs J-10 on a Q-A-Q-J-x board.

AFTER THE STRAIGHT FLUSH DRAMA HOW MANY CHIPS DOES MR WIGGLESWORTH NOW POSSESS

Just about to hit the last break of the night...we'll play another 2 45 minute levels tonight and then bag and tag for tomorrow. The DTD TDs reckon/hope we'll be down to 4 tables by then...Tiny Tighty and I think we might even make the cash...

About 55k.

Another update on mr brennan please guys

Jake wins WPT wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

I have to be honest and say I thought I had the Queen of spades and after some dodgy speech play I realised that I had the 6 of spades and the Strt flush hence the raise and probabaly the call but I suspect he had the K of spades as he suggested that, he felt I would have raised on the turn with the Ace, but I bet out the strt on the turn and he called, just to clarify.......

TommymfC talks us through his tournament so far including his hand against Pete Wigglesworth's straight flush. We sure do agree with him about The Sicilian as well!

sharplea here as my comp has overheated!

Ade Bayo is OUT.

i hope you can live with yourself...the resulting cheer has just woken the entire house up and i now have family members wanting my head
who am i kidding...

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAH :D

(Translation if he asks: oh no im sorry to hear this, i hope it wasnt a bad beat)

Ha ! Ruling..putting words into players mouths...shame on you tighty...Tommy MFC..fine upstanding young man of supreme poker talent obviousley saw the Donkey Play Level 19 play of the hand..

Jamie Moult raises to 4200 in mid position

Nadim Sarwar flat calls


Mad Turk in the cut off shoves for 23,000


Back to Moult and he just knows Turk is at it, he just knows, but passes


Sarwar considers. Turk probably thinks that now he is past the original raiser he's home and hosed


He begins the speech play


"Tell me what you have and I tell you whether to call or not. Total truth. We're from the same village aren't we? Tell me, tell me, tell me"

This carries on for another ninety seconds and eventually Sarwar calls for about two-thirds of his stack with  Ahrt Qs

Turk turns over  8d 6c with aplomb exclaiming "I HAVE LIVE CARDS!!" excitedly


Moult looks over and tells me "I knew I should have re-shoved with  9d Td"


board  6s 7c Kd

Turk is screeching

turn  6d

"It doesn't matter now baby, give it to me"

river  Jd

and he doubles up plus some

Moult looks sicker than a Sheep on its way to the Kebab shop



Turk feels like smiling now....Variance is a fickle mistress....

Sorry fella, we did see this and I got the chip count but lost it in the fun of my comp overheating - Andy had 20k when I got there but by the time I made it back to the lappy, he was a goner.

Julian Mann out. He raised to 6k UTG+1 and got one caller in Jonathan Titcombe. They saw a J-8-3 flop and Julian bet 8k. Jonathan quickly raised to cover Julian and they got it all in.

Julian - A-K

Jonathan - 10-10

The board finished off 3-4 to send Julian home.

Deadman update pls

Simon Deadman is running well again. he seems to every month, a prolific chip getter...more the issue seems to be converting these stacks he gets...he can blow them from anywhere...


Anyway Daniel Bowden pushes with  Ad 7s from a 10x bb stack, Deadman finds  Js Jh on the button, isolates


and a  Jc Kd 2h flop seals the deal


Deadman...

Rob Yong explains the decision to make the DTD Deepstack bi-monthly.

Jim Moult is out.

Tariq Arees just knocked out Steve Wright with K-K vs Q-8 all in preflop. Board ran out 9-K-6-6-7 to send Steve home in the last level of the day.

Mark Attridge just crippled TommyC when they got it all in on a Qs 6c 4s flop. Attridge had Ahrt 6h and Tommy had Aspades 2s, which missed on the Ad and 9c turn and river. Tommy has about 25k left I think...

Hope it pays off....

Michael Sharkey on the button opens for 5,000

Titcombe in the big blind sets him in

Sharkey calls with  Ks Qs for 43,000

Titcombe  Ac Qh

board  Kd 7s 7h  5h 3d to double Sharkey up

TommyC had managed to get it up to 45k-ish but he is now on fumes after he lost an 80k pot against Rana Gurnam, Tommy turning a full house with 2c 2h on a Ks 4h Kd 2d Kh board, only for Rana to have Kc 4c for the flopped full house and rivered quads!

Lawrence Gosney limps in the cut off for 2,000

Titcombe makes it 6,500 on the button

Gosney calls

flop  Kc 2c 3c

Gosney checks, Titcombe 7,000, Gosney calls

turn   Qs

Gosney checks, Titcombe 15,000 called

river  Ks

Gosney check Titcombe check

Gosney turns over  8s 3s and wins!

5 minutes of play to go today.....38 remain


Late news and overnight chip counts to follow

Titcombe and Gosney are the only two playing on their table.....

Titcombe makes it 5,000 utg, Gosney in the bb calls

Flop  7c Tc 2h

Gosney checks, Titcome 8,000 called

Turn  7h check check

River  3s

Gosney checks, Titcombe 10,000 called

Titcombe  Kh Kd takes it down

(says he should have bet turn and overbet river as he is "a calling station")

Play ends for the night with 36 left and four tables returning tomorrow


Here are the late exits

37   Ben Vinson
38   Tom Cunningham
39   Gary Pledger
40   Stephen Holloway
41   Lawrence Townsend
42   Samuel Price
43   Kyriacos Dionysiou

Tommy is now out, shoving J-9 into Rana's 6-6 and Dave Metcalf's K-K.

Ben Vinson is also out, he lost 2 pots in quick succession to Greg Garrett to firstly cripple him, then knock him out in 37th.

That's a wrap here for Day 1 of the September DTD Deepstack. 36 players remain after what has been a day of carnage and interviews!

Notable players returning for Day 2 include Alan McBride, Lawrence Gosney and Mickey Wernick. Representing the young guns we have Mark Attridge, Simon Deadman and Jonathan Titcombe. Anybody (I'm looking at Trigg here) fancy setting what they think the bar is on the age of the winner?

Play restarts tomorrow at 2.45pm as usual. Please come and join myself and Tighty (with the odd appearance from Joobs and Cottonbud) as we bring you the conclusion of this month's DTD Deepstack.

Tighty's insisted on staying to post the chip counts, so from me and Joobs, it's goodnight and see you all in 12hrs time!

Hi guys what's the latest I can get there for the £150
and will is it capped??

looking tired there pearce. you look like youve just done a 12hr  shift in the sweet shop!!

James, check your PM's

This

Welcome back to DTD

I love DTD when it is quiet, I can get loads done. Strangely enough I mentioned this to Nick Whiten who hates it when it is quiet. Go figure!



Anyway, play begins at 2.45pm...until then.......

Some information about our Day 2 field



Jonathan Titcombe. From Swindon. "5toneface" online, staked by James Williams. 15th is his best result in a DTD Deepstack


Christopher Brion Unknown to me, unknown to results databases. We'll change that today.

Bodo Wagner 4th in a recent £300 at the GUKPT Vic Summer Series

Simon Deadman . LAG maniac, one of the best chip-getters you can find. Yet to convert a massive stack into a top result in these but its coming....

Lawrence Gosney. WSOP Bracelet winner from Leeds. Famously loose style, very active, in a lot of pots, calls light a lot. A monster with chips, if he can keep them

Chris Roadknight No, I don't know either, sorry

Mark Attridge  No database form to speak of, but often features in updates on this event with big chip stacks. Another one with all to prove today

Martin lawton 25th is his best result in this but has form across the country. Won 2008 Xmas Cracker event at Luton and lots of fessie results at Southend

Kevin Pearce. Kevin is what Duran Duran would look like if they stayed up all night playing poker, working as a Golf Pro during the day. Finalist in this two months ago



 That's the top ten chip leaders coming back today....

some of the rest...


Vincent Price. No not the Horror actor but young lad who shipped the £500 Walsall Summer Series main event for £19k two years ago

Rana Gurnam Experienced and successful tournamnet pro from Cardiff. Three five figure scores in the UK in the last three years

Micky Wernick. Again, Micky goes deep. Prolific grinder with a hugely successful long term record.Many ups, many downs. but always there or thereabouts

Sean Quinn. 2nd Day 2 in a row for the Irishman from Swindon

Peter Wigglesworth  Winner of this earlier in the year in the "deal of the century". Becoming a regular at events across the country, and much imporved record in 2010

Alan McBride. Lucky from Luton. Steady and solid player, great 2009 including GUKPT final, poor 2010 but back to form with a big 2nd at the Vic recently

Paul Gardener. Swampy from the North East. A successful fixture on the circuit for many years

Yucel Eminoglou. The Mad Turk from Walsall. Mad, turkish. Sometimes a delight, depending how the mood takes him.

Anon. Often represented at these deepstacks but has only once made a final table Which is just as well for head-scratching updaters afraid of annoying him and his relationship with the CSA 

Good luck to Martin Lawton today and it was good to put face to names meeting Tighty and Sharplea yesterday.
Cheers flushthemout for the rail couldnt quite convert to day to but hey ho.
See you next month
GL all blondes left in

Chris Roadnight is a Notts circuit regular. Plays medium stakes online, pretty solid player and an all around nice guy.

Gl to him and obviously the golfish

thank you

Steve Wright not out :) That was guy to my left with 8 8 vs k k, am in 18th position with about 67k

i mean q 8 not 8 8 :)

GL bottom-of-the-table Lucky, binkage coming I feel.

gogogo lucky.

First exit of day 2 is the unlucky Anon, who saw Chris Roadknight raise to 5200 UTG+1. Anon made it 14200 and Roadknight called. They saw a flop of 7h 2c 6d and Roadknight open-shoved. Anon quickly called and flipped a dominating Qh Qs. Roadknight put his head in his hands in despair as he could only flip 9s 9d, and with the Jh peeling off the turn, Roadknight had 2 outs to win on the river. It duly came, the 9c was the hammer blow to Anon who quietly tapped the table and departed in 36th place, and we're one closer to the money.

Alan McBride shows off, Galapagos polo shirt

Mark Attridge makes it 8500 utg

Simon Deadman makes it 20700

Attridge makes it 40000 total


Simon shoves for 180000 total

Attridge thinks for 2-3 minutes and calls with K-K

Deadman A-K


flop A-K-J!

4-3

Attridge doubles to 230,000, Deadman damged

Chip leader Jonathan Titcombe who has doubled up Steven Chennells today

Simon Deadman doubles back up

A-2 Small blind versus Darren Braddick big blind with 5-5


2-K-10-A-9

Mickey Wernick is out. He saw Chris Brion raise from EP, and looked down to find Ahrt Ks, enough to 3-bet. Brion flat called and they saw a Kd 6d 2d flop. It all went in and Wernick was drawing dead as Brion had the massive Ad 9d.

Sean Quinn on the button makes it 6,000

Attridge 3 bets the small blind to 17,000

Quinn folds showing the  Ad

-------------------------------------------------------------


James Green shoves

Stephen Chennell shoves

Andrew Papageorgiou tank folds


Both James and Stephen show A-Q, split pot

to quote the lugubrious Mickey, who wnadered over after the exit


"did you get that on the net? He made it 6,000. I made it 20,000 and he called out of position with A9 of diamonds and flopped the stone cold. I don't believe it"

Sean Quinn 6500 utg+1 from a 80,000 stack

big blind Jin Ze Wu makes it 17,000 from a 70,000 stack

Sean moves  all in and Jin tank folds....



On another table Gosney and Titcombe taking it in turn to steal blinds. As per late last night, they are dancing on tiptoes whilst the other players are standing in concrete...

Down to 33. James Green shoved preflop with Aspades 5s and was called by Andrew Papageorgiou, who had Kc Qc. Andrew hit the Jc 3d Qh flop hard, leaving James 3 outs. None of them materialised, the board running out 7s 9s to send James home just short of the money in 34th.

Robert Clarke makes it 6,200 from a 60,000 stack UTG


Folded to Gosney utg who declares "all in"

Green doubles up to 60,000

thats some patter big yin !!!!!

He was knocked out four posts earlier?

Chennells, not Green. Misread

Peter Wigglesworth gone.

He'd got really short after calling a few preflop raises and having to lay down, and ended up shoving Ahrt 8s from EP, only to see Chris Brion move all in behind him holding As Jd.

No help for the Luton reg on the Qh 5d 6s 4c Td board (suits not entirely factual, I got there as the river was being dealt) and he was headed for the rail just shy of the cash.

Dwayne Quinn moves all-in UTG for his remaining 60,000

Gosney makes the call from the button.

We're off to the races as its Quinn's  Ad  Kd  against Gosney's  9h 9s

The board runs out

 8h  2h  2d  9s  Jc

and we lose Swindon's Dwaye Quinn as Gosney adds to his stack.

Simon Cawley is gone in 30th.

He open shoved short (31k) from the hijack and Kevin Pearce in the SB called.

Cawley: A dominated Qh Jc

Pearce: Aspades Qc

The board ran out a completely boring 5c 6s 3d 5h Kd to send Cawley to the rail 4 short of the money.

29 left, 27 paid. After we lose the next player, we will go hand-for-hand...

chip count for martin lawton pls

guys just wondering with this deepstack going bi-monthly does that mean we get bi monthly updates or is blonde sticking to only one?
also whats the word on the euro rankings? are both ranked or is it just the first one of the month still?

Found a spot Blind on blind all folded round to me on the SB A8??? No brainer! shove! and yes chip leader on the BB finds AJ this game can be cruel...ask Mickey Wernick....Im sure that's not the worst bad beat he has seen....I limped into the pot with Q10 spades but had to fold to a raise and reraise he actually made it 22k preflop after a 6k raise from Chris, not a great call from the A9 but hey sometimes you run good some times the poker Gods wish to humble you!

No idea on either yet, will sort out after the event

Has Allin McBink played a hand yet or is he just waiting for Aces?

Attridge seems to be running over the table..

He opens the button to 8,600

Deadman calls

Flop Q - 5 - Q

Deadman moves all in

Attridge folds.

Lawrence Gosney is running hot


He raises to 7,500 utg


Peter Attridge pushes for 22,000 in mid position

Darren Braddrick all in on the button for 60,000


Lawrence says, after dwellage "this is a tough one"

but eventually calls from his huge stack


Lawrence  Td Ts

Attridge. P  Ad Kh

Braddrick  Ahrt Ks

Gosney takes two out, takes his stack to 400,000 and bursts the bubble with Braddrick 27th, Attridge P 28th

Christopher Brion

Round 1 between Gosney and Mad Turk goes to Gosney after he limp-called a 15k raise from Turk preflop with 4-4, then checkraised all in on a A-A-8 flop. Mad Turk ended up folding K-K.

Sam Maddison doubled up to 25k when shoving K-J utg+1 and getting a caller in BB Tariq Arees, who called blind only to find he had a completely dominated K-10.

Brion makes it 10,000

Rana Gurnam calls

flop  Jd 7h 2c


Brion 10,000, called

Turn  Qh

15,000 Brion, called

river  Ks

Brion snap bets 25,000, Rana folds with not too many behind


Brion is unloading clips hand after hand here, lots of aggression


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Gosney is speech-playing "anyone who raises my blind I am calling"

Titcombe raises utg, Gosney defends as promised, it gets checked down and Gosney shows 5-2 off and wins with a pair of fives.


True to his word, then

Chip count for roadknight and deadman please?

Just an FYI, Mark Attridge is a £1/2 regular at DTD, only normally plays the bigger comps, usually succumbing to the allure of the cash game waiting list calls :P

Martin Lawton, 83,000. Looking like the Rock of Gibraltar with sideburns and a cap. I assume he's card dead though.



Deadman is short-stacked and complaining about speed of hands/number of hands on his table

Ray Ryder is gone in 26th. He shoved UTG+1 for 26k holding 9-9, but found Lawrence Gosney calling on the button with K-10. Mad Turk in the BB looked like he was going to call as well, but decided to pass and when the hands were shown, was not happy!

The board ran out Q-J-3-A-Q which saw Lawrence hit Broadway and send Ryder to the rail £450 richer.

Mr, Gosney may have me eating my words on day 1 post. He usally only runs good at Leeds

deadman clearly determined to ante off his chips fast enough to buy into the 150 xD

Simon Deadman is moved table and raises utg to 8600

Andrew Papageorgiou all in for 35,000

Simon calls

Simon  Kd Ad

Andrew  Aspades 8c


A-J-10-4-2 and Papageorgiou is Out

Roadknight 166,000

Deadman 80,000 after knocking the player out



Gosney's chips are stacked very haphazardly, towers of them

He just knocked over the lot, mid hand, and had to be asked to make sure he had not overcalled an all-in and a call!

O'Donnell had shoved with A-3 off

Steven Chennells is out after he shoved the river of a 9-Q-K-4-10 board holding Q-10 but found none other than Lawrence Gosney behind with the stone cold dogs dangly bits - also known as A-J.

21 left, 15 gone in an hour and a half.

20 minute break now after 2 levels

Thanks guys.

Came back today with c 46,000 at 1200/2400, sitting 26th of 36 with 27 paid.
Card dead for two levels and haven't played a single hand apart from my BB twice.
Dwindled to c 33,000 now at the break, but only 22 left now, so in for a minor cash (unless I can get lucky!).

U played with Simon Tighty? He's far from LAG- very solid but very good with the odd huge move in him but certainly not lag

I've watched Simon for the last 5-6 of these George, and what sticks me is the huge moves and amassing of stacks to make the huge moves, I suppose.

Hopefully he'll get the rub of the green this month!

Just waiting for a picture card. Keep getting 10 6 , 7 2 , 7 3 etc. 

What's gone wrong?

I rate Simon Deadman as a great poker player, never ever can read him, cash is his main game but as said once he is stacked anything can happen.

that being said, he now has Gosney, Titcombe and Turk raising into him.....so he won't be first to open too often, and I reckon he'll have a tighter style as a result

Alan McBride all in for 32,100

Rana calls him


Alan 9-9

Rana A-Q


A-Q-10-8-J


Alan up to 70,000

That was the the most predictable rivered gutshot ever, to be frank!

Lawrence Gosney raised to 11k UTG, and Simon shoved for 72.7k total. Lawrence called pretty quickly and Simon was dominated.

Lawrence: 9-9

Simon: 3-3

The board ran out a three-less 5-K-10-J-A to send Simon home in 19th just short of the money jump.

14   9   Bodo Wagner

Lawrence Gosney is running over his table. Then again, he does have the chips to do so!

Most recent hand, he snap-called a Mark Attridge raise on the button and Bodo Wagner came along in the BB. They all saw a 7h 3c 9d flop and it was checked to Gosney, who bet 15k. Wagner called and Attridge folded. The turn was the 3h and Wagner checked again. Gosney fired 35k and that was enough for Wagner to tank-fold. Gosney wasn't done playing mind games though, casually flipping 4h 2d for 4 high!

Mr.Gosney and The Mad Turk HU Wonderfull thought

Rana Gurnam just took down a nice pot after he raised to 12k preflop, only to find Mark Attridge 3-betting to 32k. Rana called and they saw a Aspades 8s Kd flop. Rana shoved for 53k and that was enough to get Attridge to fold.

It's Deepstack weekend sir - there are NO 50p/£1 games!

Wu made it 13.5k from the cutoff, Mad Turk shoved the SB, Wu folded.

That's the sum of the action on that table in the last half hour. They're just passing chips to each other.

Mad Turk is down to dust after he called a 16k raise from Chris Brion preflop, check-called 17k on the 4-J-7 flop, check-called 20k on the 4 turn and they both checked the river. Brion had 8-8 which was good.

Great updates as standard for Blonde.

Having no horse this month running I'd like to See Lawrence Gosney take this down.
Bumped into him at MGM as I was heading for the lifts at 1am.
We went for a Beer and I finally hit the Sack @  6am Battered. He went to Bellagio for some cash. :respect:

Gave me some advise which got me out of a hole playing cash later in the week @ MGM.

Also a bit of luck to Quinn due to his brother Dwayne's Vegas gig. Top bloke is he.

Who would you be putting the piggy bank on, if you were made to have a bet?

Gosney to the TD

"Who is running this comp?"

TD Dik9 "Me"

"Well can you not put Old Aged Pensioners in Seat 1 and Seat 10 please, they keep forgetting to put their blinds and antes in."

(Metcalf and Wagner)

On the flop he pushed (as BB) and I called.
