Just set up in the press room and about to go out into the abyss of the milling players to see what's happening. I'll open with a list of unfinished and unconfirmed list of players so far in for today:
Abecassis Michel France Abrahams Javed UK Akenhead James UK Alblas Kees Holland Alterman Paul UK Andras Karkus Hungary Andrea Andrew Antonius Patrik Finland Ashby Richard UK Baird Gregory USA Bansi Praz UK Baran Marcel Denmark Beevers Joe UK Bell Andrew UK Bentham Thomas UK Betson Alan T M Ireland Bihl Thomas Germany Billirakis Steve USA Bjerregaard Dennis Black Andrew Ireland Blanco Christiano Italy Bloom Tony UK Boeken Noah Holland Bonding Lars Denmark Bonyadi Farzad USA Boubli Jan France Brecher Steven Broadhurst David Brolin Tomas Sweden Bui Nhi Sweden Cahill Edward Campbell Jonothan Cascarino Tony Ireland Cavanagh Martin UK Channing Neil UK Chenue Sebastien France Ciccoloni Alfredo Italy Citrone Carlo UK Clark David Conroy John Cook Terry Cornmark Magnus Sweden Cox Ian Daneshgar David Darcourt Guillaume Davies David UK De Knijff Martin Sweden De Wolfe Roland UK Delagorce Guillaume France Demel Priyan UK Demol Maxime France Dempsey James UK Dodet Daniel Belgium Donohoe Andrew Durkstra Joep Duvall Jeff UK Dyck Skyler Canada Eichhardt Peter Sweden Eldering Kees Elias Darren USA Eskilsson Hans Evdakov Nikolay Russian Feldman Andrew Fields Andrew Finney David Charles Flusfeder David UK Fougeron Thomas France Fox Stuart UK Frazer Ian UK Friberg Erik Sweden Gale John UK Garza Jeffrey USA Georgiou Phidias Cyprus Gerin Stephan Gilles Thomas USA Gould J Grech Joseph UK Griffin Gavin USA Grundy Ben UK Hakenholz Frederic Hansen Thor Norway Hansen Casper Hansson Emil Sweden Harris Sidney Haugen Fredrik Sweden Hawkins Keith UK Hedlund Peter Sweden Helland Arild Sweden Helppi Juha Finland Hirsch Yakov USA Hoang Van Hopkins Matthew Horne Michael UK Jaspers Joris Holland Jelassi Ramzi Sweden Jelinek Steve UK Jethi Sean Johansson Mikael Sweden Johansson Simon Jones Iwan UK Jorgensen Theo Denmark Judah Melvyn UK Katja Svendsen Denmark Khaitan Abhishek Khajuria Chandrakant Khan Hevad USA Kraues Andreas Lacay Ludovic Lagmannsgaard Svein Norway Langmann Florian Leckey Paul Lee Redmond UK Lellouche Anthony France Lieu Liz USA Linton Peter james Lovelady Joey Lylloff Sander Denmark Mahrenholz Karl UK Mccormack Francis Mehrmand Davood Germany Moorman Chris Mouawad Joseph Lebanon Muir Vincent Murphy John Nagrecha N Nash Stuart UK Nathwani Ketu UK Nawab M Negreanu Daniel Canada Neu Matthias Germany Nguyen Thang Germany Obrobac David Oconnell Kevin Orpe Michelle Paasisalo Jarkko Finland Paasonen Mika Finland Palanca Manuel UK Parker John Paruszewski Piotr Poland Persaud Nikhil UK Pescatori Massimiliano Italy Phillips Antony Pilkington Lewis UK Prescott Brian UK Puro Mika Finland Pystynen Antti Finland Rahal Kalil France Rahal Samir France Rasmussen Stig Germany Reardon Trevor UK Renoldi Simon Riviere Sebastian Sweden Roberts Benjamin Romanello Roberto UK Rudling Doug UK Ruthenberg Sebastian Germany Rutter Stuart UK Rybachenko S Russia Saarisilta Nichlas Sweden Santos Andre Portugal Segal Mark Sepede Maurizio Shipley John UK Sjavik Jan Norway Smidt Daniel Holland Smurfit Peter Ireland Sokrati Chris UK Sonelin David Sweden Sonesson Cristoffer Sweden Soulier Fabrice France steindl johannes Austria Stevic Alexander Sweden Stoneham Adam UK Sunar Surinder UK Sverrison Halldor Denmark Teng Andrew Thew Julian UK Thorson William Sweden Tibulca Alex Tollund Thomas Denmark Trinh Lam Van Den Berg Thierry Holland Vanrijn Dennis Vanzadelhof Steven Vaswani Ram UK Vathne Aleksander Norway Vinson Alan UK Vogl James UK Wahlroos Thomas Finland Waring Mark Whybrew Robert Wolfer Thomas Wong Ken China Woodley Ian UK Wooldridge Warren UK Yitzhaki Roman USA Zaichenko Audrey Russia Zolotow Stephen USA Zurbin Eduard Title: Re: Pokerstars.com London EPT: Day 1B - At A Glance Post by: snoopy1239 on September 26, 2007, 01:50:37 PM 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. Title: Re: Pokerstars.com London EPT: Day 1B - At A Glance Post by: snoopy1239 on September 26, 2007, 02:26:18 PM 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. Title: Re: Pokerstars.com London EPT: Day 1B - At A Glance Post by: Chili on September 26, 2007, 02:51:07 PM Just managed to nab a list of seating positions and early table sharers are:
James Akenhaed Thomas Bihl Steve Billirakis Praz Bansi Andrew Bell Tony Bloom Steve Jelinek Daniel Negreanu Liz Lieu Joey Lovelady Peter Eichhardt Stuart Rutter Ram Vaswani James "flushy" Dempsey Martin Cavanagh Warren Wooldridge Title: Re: Pokerstars.com London EPT: Day 1B - At A Glance Post by: snoopy1239 on September 26, 2007, 03:30:51 PM 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. Title: Re: Pokerstars.com London EPT: Day 1B - At A Glance Post by: Chili on September 26, 2007, 04:22:02 PM 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." Title: Re: Pokerstars.com London EPT: Day 1B - At A Glance Post by: snoopy1239 on September 26, 2007, 05:09:56 PM 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." Title: Re: Pokerstars.com London EPT: Day 1B - At A Glance Post by: Chili on September 26, 2007, 05:32:46 PM 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." Oopps THOMAS WAHLROOS OUT Title: Re: Pokerstars.com London EPT: Day 1B - At A Glance Post by: Chili on September 26, 2007, 05:41:29 PM Neil Channing 6,000
Stuart Fox 12,000 Pete Linton 17,000 Ian Frazer 8,700 Nick Persaud 6,500 Roland DeWolfe 10,000 Warren Wooldrige 14,500 Priyan DeMel 12,500 Stuart Rutter 5,200 Julian Thew 12,500 James Akenhead 2,850 Richard Ashby 5,000 Carlo Citrone 10,000 Title: Re: Pokerstars.com London EPT: Day 1B - At A Glance Post by: snoopy1239 on September 26, 2007, 05:54:31 PM Neil (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=302) Channing (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=302) is OUT. He was down to just 3.9k at the time, but found Ad Qs on a Jc 3h Qh Flop and naturally shoved his chips over the line. Unfortunately, he was called by Ks Th which managed to Turn a 9c, followed by an academic Tc River
Peter Eichhardt -- 3,725 Alexander Stevic -- 950 Martin De Kjniff -- 18,100 Patrik Antonius -- 19,150 Peter Hedlund -- 14,900 Roberto Romanello -- 17,500 Magnus Cormark -- 19,500 Ian Cox -- 12,375 John Murphy -- 17,900 Ian Frazer -- 11,350 Dave Clark -- 10,575 Stuart Nash -- 15,325 Ramzi Jelassi -- 8,275 Emil Hansson -- 7,000 Tony Bloom -- 9,750 Carlo Citrone -- 26,925 William Thorsson -- 9,500 Daniel Dodet -- 13,375 Trevor Reardon -- 7,350 Stuart Fox -- 11,000 Erik Friberg -- 18,975 Steven Van Zadelhoff -- 8,100 Anthony Feldman -- 9,325 Noah Boeken -- 13,700 Vathne -- 8,700 Javed Abrahams -- 5,600 Jeff Duvall -- 5,350 Liz Lieu -- 5,000 Daniel Negreanu -- 10,800 Tony Phillips -- 14,100 Theo Jorgensen -- 12,800 Roland de Wolfe -- 8,200 Michelle Orpe -- 6,750 Ben Roberts -- 11,650 Simon Johansson -- 7,000 Alan Vinson -- 9,275 Title: Re: Pokerstars.com London EPT: Day 1B - At A Glance Post by: snoopy1239 on September 26, 2007, 06:27:23 PM 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.

Any news on Chris Moorman? Just seen him 2 mins ago and he still in there with 4,900 Flushy "luk box" Dempsey (his words) 25,200 Paul Alterman 16,000 Chris Sokrati "soxy" 7,900 Ben Grundy 15,000 Roberto Romanello 15,100 James Akenhead OUT Title: Re: Pokerstars.com London EPT: Day 1B - At A Glance Post by: Chili on September 26, 2007, 06:45:06 PM 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.

Title: Re: Pokerstars.com London EPT: Day 1B - At A Glance Post by: snoopy1239 on September 26, 2007, 07:43:23 PM 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.

Title: Re: Pokerstars.com London EPT: Day 1B - At A Glance Post by: Chili on September 26, 2007, 08:41:15 PM 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 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. Title: Re: Pokerstars.com London EPT: Day 1B - At A Glance Post by: snoopy1239 on September 26, 2007, 10:47:37 PM "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.
