Good to see you were smiling all the way through, even when you were all in, and had to come from behind you were still smiling. The way it should be.

Excellent stuff Lee - solid all the way through - and very well played at the final table so I'm told. Enjoy Dortmund, and see you at the next one!! :)up Title: Re: APAT Wales - Lee Mulligan Post by: NoflopsHomer on February 26, 2007, 10:53:40 PM Hello All, I must apologise for not having posted earlier but I have only just got back (British Rail or whoever they are nowadays!).

Title: Re: APAT Wales - Lee Mulligan Post by: RichD on February 26, 2007, 10:55:40 PM Firstly congrats Lee! Very dominant final table performance.
I was on your right on the final, dont suppose you remember what you had when you put me all in when I was BB shortie? I folded 84o and its been bugging me all day and I know mathematically I had to call! Good luck in the EPT anyway Title: Re: APAT Wales - Lee Mulligan Post by: Eyeofsauron on February 27, 2007, 12:10:42 AM Congrats Lee.

Title: Re: APAT Wales - Lee Mulligan Post by: ericstoner on February 27, 2007, 03:33:23 PM Fantastic result Lee.
I'm glad my little pep talk before the sunday paid off. Well actually Lee helped me by getting my chair out of the car when he arrived on Sunday.We then chatted about the days play, he was short stacked,and said he was going to get stuck in early, to get away from the allin fest that was predicted. Well he kept his word,and when he came to my table he'd got niclely chipped up,and carried that on right through.........well played mate. :)up Title: Re: APAT Wales - Lee Mulligan Post by: Dewi_cool on February 27, 2007, 06:53:55 PM :)up well done Lee, best of luck in the EPT
Title: Re: APAT Wales - Lee Mulligan Post by: ThinkerJE on February 27, 2007, 11:58:14 PM Well Done, Top Performance, good luck in EPT.
Title: Re: APAT Wales - Lee Mulligan Post by: tikay on February 28, 2007, 01:56:27 AM Wow, what a wonderful Report, thank you Lee!
You failed to mention the name of the book your wife gave you - Mike Caros Book of Tells, if I'm not mistaken. It clearly worked, & I hope you are gonna takes us through those two hugely brave calls you made, for your entire stack each time, with 5-5 & J-T, the latter with 3 left in the tourney. As to the "special atmosphere" at the Event which you & many others have alluded to, this pleases us more than anything else - it's precisely what we set out to achieve. Unless you experience that atmo, you could never understand it, though those who have attended blonde Bashes would know the feeling. So glad you took the trouble to thank the staff at Grosvenor Cardiff, too, especially Irene & Sean. These guys get it in the neck way to often, & they deserve thanks when they get it right. APAT has not been an easy ride for Des, Tighty, & myself, plus the backroom boys, but the amount of people who have said how good the event was make it thoroughly worthwhile. Thank you, well done, & now it's Dortmund for you, where the blonde Live Update will ensure everyone back home can follow your progress. I'm quite certain many will be rooting for you, because you play the game in exactly the right spirit, as do all the APAT-ers. Major Mulligan, a worthy APAT Champion, following in the footsteps of Daniel & Max. Title: Re: APAT Wales - Lee Mulligan Post by: M3boy on February 28, 2007, 02:05:13 AM Well said TK , A truely deserved win!
If only he had not of been on my table, with 3 tables left, I am convinced I would of progressed alot further - Reason? Because there were 3 people on that table that I KNEW I could move in on and they would fold all but top top hands, trouble was, Lee also knew who they were and was getting into them first :( Thanks for the mentions Lee, you really are a desreved winner. GL at EPT!!! |
