The breaking news on the sometimes shaky mediaroom grapevine is that Juha (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=619) Helppi (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=619) is the first exit of the day, all-in with Aces but being bust by Queens. If everyone in the mediaroom agrees up on the it surely becomes fact, no?

Thang Nguyen is also OUT.

I'm unsure as to how he dropped so low but the Eggman Thomas Walhroos has just doubled up... although only up to 2,950 (!)

It was a bit of an escape too, Wahlroos pushing in his shorstack with Jc Tc but running into the Pocket Kings (Kd Kc) of the ever-consistent Lutonian Paul Alterman. Although dominating, the board came Qc 2h 5c 9h 8h to River The Eggman a straight, Alterman dropping his shoulders in frustration but probably equally glad that it wasn't for more chips.

The red-haired (for the moment) Gavin (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=552) Griffin (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=552) has just popped his American bracelet winning clogs, the Monte Carlo EPT Grand Final Champion finding the bullets (pow pow) but being flushed out by chatterbox Peter (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=701) Hedlund (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=701).

With the Flop reading 7s 2c 9c, the Swede's 500 raise was re-raised to 2k only for Hedlund to announce all-in. Griffin swiftly called only to be met by a rather menacing and potentially bad-beating 6c 5c.

As the Tc Turn hit the River, Griffin rose from his seat like a jet propelled whippet, not willing to stay for the 7c River and wanting to escape the table as quickly as possible.

Although battered and bruised worse than one armed boxer, Griffin was gentlemanly to wish his opponents good luck as he left while Hedlund happily stacked his chips for a virtual double up.

Adam Stoneham is also missing in action.  His AA was sitting pretty against Patrik Antonius's KK until he spiked a K on the turn, then shortly afterwards he AQ on a Q high flop but ran into the pocket rockets himself this time.

Chris Moorman was down to about 3k but is now sitting prettier on 8,150


Title: Re: Pokerstars.com London EPT: Day 1B - At A Glance
Post by: snoopy1239 on September 26, 2007, 04:22:22 PM
Adam (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=10) Stoneham (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=10), who finalled a GUKPT recently, was eliminated moments before the break in circumstances that would make even some of the most stoic of faces wince as if receiving a full body wax.

After Patrik (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=692) Antonius (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=692) had limped under the gun, Adam raised it up with Aces and was flat called by the tennis coaching Fin. Both players checked a T-2-3 rainbow Flop, only for Patrik to move all-in over the top of Adam's 1,200 bet on the Six Turn.

Adam called and was shown a rather pleasing Kings, which quickly transformed joy into chagrin as it made trips on the soul-destroying King River.

Harsh one for Stoneham, but elation (although he's hardly going to show it) for Patrik.

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

Although still plugging away, Steve Jelinek is ruing a call he made against mischievous Hit Squadder Praz Bansi. According to Jelinek, he hit a set of threes on a 3-7-T, smooth called a re-raise from Praz before checking the Jack Turn. With Praz also checking, Steve bet out 800 on the Jack River, but found himself calling a 2.2k re-raise from Praz who was sitting pretty with Quads.

"I could have folded," mused Steve, "but there's a decent chance that he has the straight or even Aces. I saw him play Aces that way later on."

Stuart (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=420) Nash (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=420) is currently swimming along rather nicely with 20,900. He used the term "bits and pieces", but did relate one curious hand: "I had J-8, checked it down on a 3-3-T-7 board and bet 200 on the 9 River with my straight. My opponent chucked in 1k, and was asked if it was a raise or a call. He said it was a raise but Ian (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=173) Frazer (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=173) intervened and claimed it had to be a call. At that point, I used some experience and quickly said "I'll re-raise it to 2k. He called with A-3."

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

With the break causing the players to swarm around the table like flies around... no, I won't say it, I managed to catch up with a few choice folk, one of whom was the gangly Mantis himself, Karl (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=227) Mahrenholz (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=227).

"I'm on 19k, but haven't really played many big hands. I'm just secretly bashing them up, re-raising and not showing any big hands."

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

Italian Stallion Christiano Blanco is on 7,500.

He remains in high spirits though.

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

Keith Hawkins and John Shipley were both propping up the bar, although The Camel was inevitably the only one consuming any alcoholic beverages. After his six figure win in the recent PokerStars online event, John Shipley is riding the wave, but is yet to gather speed on his surfboard at this EPT with just 11k. A peak of 11.5k and a trough of 8.5k, "No hands" were the only words I could prise out of him. Keith, however, is hovering around the 20k mark having "flopped two sets and had Aces paid off."

Ok finally found John Murphy in swish PKR attire, he is good on 20,925.  He did have Thomas Wahlroos sat next to him but he went out just before the last 10 min break.  I was actually talking to someone and completely missed what happened to Wahlroos, so I went and completely made an ass of myself. 

On hearing Walhrools proclaim in my ears "I f...ing hate this game."  I then go and laugh and ask "How many chips do you have?"  He looks at me like I'm some nutter and says "ERM ZERO."

Bobble hatted charmer Theo Jorgensen, who is one of few players to final in multiple EPTs, has just been bitch slapped by Gutshot Series of Poker winner and part-time dealer Tony Phillips, the ginger ninja finding 6-7 versus K-K on a 6-x-6-A board. No King on the River.

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

Also spotted at the bar, which is cutely doubling up as a rail this week, is Nik Persuad. A fearsome player when at his best, Nik seemed troubled by the encounter that halved his stack and was seemingly in two minds as to whether or not he could have got away from the hand. According to Nik (15k), the surprisingly sober Stuart Fox (8k) re-raised his late position raise from the blind before betting out 750 on a Qc Tc 4s Flop. Nik didn't like this Flop, suggesting that he's been outdrawn by Queens or Tens and won't get paid by Jacks. However, the bet was small in relation to the pot, so Nik called. The Turn brought a blank, 5d say, and once again Stuart bet out, this time 1,600. In an instant of deja vu, Nik called. The River was the 2h, and with what was essentially the 4th bullet, Stuart fired one last time, pushing all his chips over the line. Nik reluctantly called, but was disappointed to be met by two Ladies for a set.

Julian Thew is as we speak pondering the cash games, went by about an hour again and he admitted to being a mere spectator on his table.  Well he had ticks to watch from Romanello & Grundy often clashing.  Anyhow, the button raised his BB to 2,200,  the small blind came along for the ride along with Julian who was holding Queens.  The flop came J high so the small blind goes all in.  Julian promptly calls and was rewarded by seeing AJ, that was until another J hit the turn that is.  "It happens" Julian says with a shrug.

Just before the break, Hendonmobber Joe (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=204) Beevers (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=204) was felted by Dave (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=92) Clark (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=92) junior, the former Late Night Poker star the victim of a cooler with 7-8 versus Q-8 on a rainbow 9-T-J Flop. Beevers now wearing a face as long as the equator.

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

The charismatic, but truly bizarre Peter (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=701) Hedlund (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=701) may be silent for the first time since the start of the comp after pushing all-in with K-Q on a J-T-x Flop and being called by Kings. No help and the cheeky Swede is sent to the rail where I'm sure his tale of woe will be shared with all and sundry.

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

Dave Clark has been shot down by the bullets, the American Airlines that provided him with a double up earlier coming back to more than level the score by being bust by a flush draw, and then the Pocket Ladies which enjoyed a threesome. Dave Clark failed to recover from the final bullet and is now pushing up those poker daisies.

Mohamad Kowassrie is OUT, he had 20k at one point but self-admittedly didn't ultise those chips well before eventually making a move with 5-4 and being caught by K-7. He flopped a Five, but was re-outdrawn on the Turn.

Pete Linton has exited, after knowing him quite well from Gala in Nottingham, he is quite capable from going from chip leader to out, or a bowl of rice to chip leader in mins.  I asked what happend but all he would give me was:

"I made the wrong move at the wrong time" & "I got Scandied"  Ul Pete.


Also Iwan Jones was left nursing a 2K stack after a QQ v AK confrontation.  Iwan flopped a third Q but the board brought 4 spades with matey holding  .  Iwan even had the  .  I said "thats gross" he said "Its just standard!"

There is a Gutshot player called Tony Phillips who just raked in a massive pot totalling about 65k.  He caught nearly the whole cardroom's attention by shouting quite loudly after knocking out a Russian player.  He was heard shouting "YES! You called me with 10 high?"  On further inspection, Tony held 88's and all the chips went in with one card to come when the Russian held only a hopeful open ended straight draw and flush draw.  He missed the lot and Tony Phillips has about 70,000 and Negreanu, Lieu & Dewolfe on his table to impress with his stack.

All-in with K-K versus A-9, all looked peachy in the World of the Mantis when the flop came A-K-T, but an Ace Turn and Ten River later and Karl was left to retell an eye-watering outdraw that is sure to bleed sympathy out of even the most stubborn of non-bad beat listeners.

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

Stuart Rutter is currently on 13k, although he was on more until he payed off a Q-J on a T-9-8-7-2 board with J-T. He seems to believe he could have got away cheaper.

Meanwhile, the barmen here at the Vic might be happy and preparing for an affluent night, but Keith Hawkins isn't too chuffed, The Camel exiting the tournament with T-9s just moments ago.

"Tooooony, Tooooony Cascarino, Tooooony Cascarino in the aaaaaaair," is what I used to sing in the stands at Villa Park, but now I'm watching him from a different type of sideline, of the poker variety, and watching him double up to a much more playable 41k after struggling for most of the day. I arrived late with hands on their back so am unable to relate the betting action, but the pseudo Irishman had Ahrt Aspades versus Qh Jh on a Ks 5d Th Ts 3d board and looked as happy as coyote at a roadrunner convention by the time of the River card.

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

Verbal wonder Roberto Romanello doesn't need to talk his opponents into submission, he can flop a full house against them instead, which is exactly what he do when he stumbled into 3h 3s and an Ac Ad 3c Flop. With Roberto's initial bet being re-raised all-in by his nextdoor neighbour, Roberto instacalled (quite literally) and shoved in his chips quicker than a sheep at a Welsh farmyard auction. Mateyboy showed Qc 8c, so was virtually drawing dead.
