Title: Luton Main Event Overnight Chip Counts Post by: tikay on January 27, 2008, 08:09:14 AM About 52 seats were sold for the Luton Main Event, which was a 2 x 7,500 chip, 1 hour affair. 18 players return for Day Two thus: Dean Morris, T6, S7, 108,825 Asy Ho, T5, S5, 82,700 Dave Gregory, T1, S7, 82,000 James Roe, T5, S5, 51,950 Andy Bradshaw, T2, S6, 50,800 Ben Turnstill (rooks), T2, S7, 49,150 Giovanni Vaccerella, T6, S2, 47,725 Keith Miller, T1, S6, 43,950 Neel Chudusamma, T3, S1, 43,750 Nick Slade (quantify), T2, S5, 34,075 Dave LLoyd (djl), T2, S2, 32,725 Andrew Tracey (Andrew T), T4, S3, 27,525 Richard Lynch, T2, S3, 24,875 Matt Tyler (Cone-Head/b4matt), T3, S8, 24,475 Lalit Khujuria, T6, S6, 23,850 Ian Woodley, T5, S4, 20,775 Richard Wheatley, T1, S3, 18,100 Chris Leventis, T4, S4, 12,725. When I arrived, from work, at about 1am, & Rooks was down to the felt with about 4k - he finished the day in 6th place with 49k+, some comeback! And one inrtrepid player played the Brighton Main Event, bust out, then drove the 2 hour or so trek to Luton, & courtsey of the Alternate System, also played the Luton Main Event! That must be a first.

That must be a first. That was his third tournament of the night, I got told. I'm surprised to see Asy is second in chips. He's not usually one for tournaments. Title: Re: Luton Main Event Overnight Chip Counts Post by: TightEnd on January 27, 2008, 08:28:17 AM Dean Morris is "the Sicilian" on blonde. Very nice guy..knocks around with Vinny "Celtic" Calenti"
Oh, and from the 10% club..go Andrew T!!! and rooks, b4Matt and Dave Lloyd while I am at it, gl. I presume 9 are paid! Title: Re: Luton Main Event Overnight Chip Counts Post by: M3boy on January 27, 2008, 09:11:07 AM 52? Nice turnout
I busted out of the satelite with 12 left (4 seats) and when I left at 5.30 there were only 12 seats sold! Glad this was a (mini) success, Luton deserve it Title: Re: Luton Main Event Overnight Chip Counts Post by: ripple11 on January 27, 2008, 10:44:56 AM 52...good turnout!
Hardly surprising AndrewT making day two, given the superstar field he beat to get there. ;) ;goodluck; today Andrew Matt and Ben Title: Re: Luton Main Event Overnight Chip Counts Post by: ChipRich on January 27, 2008, 11:40:58 AM Gogogo gl all
Title: Re: Luton Main Event Overnight Chip Counts Post by: AndrewT on January 27, 2008, 11:51:36 AM Thanks to the brilliant structure (we're only at 600/1200/75 when we come back) I managed to fold my way to day 2. I must have played about 1 hand every hour, if that.
I am on the table with all the chips with the 2 chip leaders on my immediate left so there is scope for progress if I hit some flops. Quite tired after less than 4 hours sleep. Ian Woodley, Dave Gregory and I had to break into the Days Inn after the night porter fell asleep.

I was down to the felt but made a nice comeback winning one race on the way which im sure everyone in the room new about as t was against mr woodley, My AK runner runner runner runner runner runner runner runner flushed his JJ AIPF.
Matt had a sick beat against a guy i dont know his name, but it goes, limp 800, limp 800, matey shoves 19k, and matt is in sb with AA and calls, matey has KT. flop KTx... Sick.

Excellent place to be - full of opportunitues - your table - not the Days Inn....although.... Anyway - no pressure Andrew - just keep thinking about the 10%'ers - my new shoes are depending on you ;D Title: Re: Luton Main Event Overnight Chip Counts Post by: Karabiner on January 27, 2008, 04:54:43 PM How come that every time that Snatty makes a post the subject quickly turns to footwear ?
I reckon it must be subliminal ::) Title: Re: Luton Main Event Overnight Chip Counts Post by: AndrewT on January 27, 2008, 05:09:11 PM 11 left. Myself and Rookie among them. I have 50k. Average is 70k, though Dean has over 200k of the 780k in play. Matt Tyler and Ian Woodley are out.
Title: Re: Luton Main Event Overnight Chip Counts Post by: Djinn on January 27, 2008, 05:11:51 PM All the best of luck to you both. Sometimes lack of sleep can work to your advantage, somehow. I am going to continue to believe this whatever evidence is presented to the contrary. Let us know when you get heads up... :)

Title: Re: Luton Main Event Overnight Chip Counts Post by: AndrewT on January 27, 2008, 11:03:09 PM So 6th it was for £2340 which means all my 10%ers get £234 (unless Dingdell demands payment in kind).
Was short stacked all way through final day and suffered two cruel blows when 6-handed. First when the other shorty pushed with QJ and cracked the big blind's AA. Then I pushed against Dean with 55 against A7 diamonds. First card on flop was a 5 but it was followed by 3 diamonds. And this all followed getting Sapianoed in the first level of yesterday when I lost my first set of chips with AK against his, er, K3. Fun weekend. Thanks for all the support from everyone. These £750 fields aren't all that after all. Title: Re: Luton Main Event Overnight Chip Counts Post by: Karabiner on January 27, 2008, 11:07:40 PM Good show Andrew, nice result.
There's only one Halibut Sapiano.... Title: Re: Luton Main Event Overnight Chip Counts Post by: M3boy on January 27, 2008, 11:09:38 PM Good show Andrew, nice result. There's only one Halibut Sapiano.... You should of seen him in the £30 rebuy sat.

You should of seen him in the £30 rebuy sat. First 10 hands he wins 8 of them, felting at least one person EVERY hand LOL...he usually plays the £100 re-buy at the Sportsman on a Friday night.....and often adds £700+ to the pot!!...as you say, it can work against you, but I do pray to be on his table!! Good to see everyone in the Blonde special 6 handed sat. made some money...thanks to Andrews fantastic effort......hopefully it will lead to these sats being well supported in the future. Title: Re: Luton Main Event Overnight Chip Counts Post by: Laxie on January 28, 2008, 10:28:47 AM Well done Andrew and Rookie!!!
Sounds like it was a great week-end for Blondes all around the shop. Title: Re: Luton Main Event Overnight Chip Counts Post by: boldie on January 28, 2008, 11:56:51 AM very well done Andrew.
Title: Re: Luton Main Event Overnight Chip Counts Post by: b4matt on January 28, 2008, 12:10:14 PM Nick Slade and Dean Morris chopped it HU.
Dean played a great demolition game all the way through and Sladey played some exceptional poker nursing a short stack for hours to finally get Heads up. A brilliant structure and a much weaker field than i would normally expect for a comp of this buy in, well done Luton. Title: Re: Luton Main Event Overnight Chip Counts Post by: Snatiramas on January 28, 2008, 12:10:47 PM Well done to Andrew and to Rookie of course
but a big up to Dean who I have had the pleasure of playing with on many occasions in Luton. IMHO this result has been coming for a while. Well done mate Title: Re: Luton Main Event Overnight Chip Counts Post by: RED-DOG on January 28, 2008, 01:51:20 PM Well played all. but special congratulations to Mr T.
(I pity the fool who didn't have 10%!) Title: Re: Luton Main Event Overnight Chip Counts Post by: Royal Flush on January 29, 2008, 03:22:11 AM Why is a structure that lets you sit there doing nothing referred to as good?
Well done all. Title: Re: Luton Main Event Overnight Chip Counts Post by: tikay on January 29, 2008, 03:28:51 AM Why is a structure that lets you sit there doing nothing referred to as good? Well done all. One of lifes little mysteries Mr Flushy Sir. Like why so many prefer five day Test Match Cricket (as most connieseurs of the game do) to 20-20 hitfests, it's horses for courses. Some of us prefer a little more subtlety & time, others prefer the pile 'em in quick & hope style. Each to their own, eh? Title: Re: Luton Main Event Overnight Chip Counts Post by: the sicilian on January 29, 2008, 07:57:11 PM Very true Tikay... I personally prefer to play poker and have the facilities to pick and choose when i commit my chips...so often you hit a final table and its one mistake and your buggered and 9 hours of hard work turns into a coin flip....if that the case flip it now and i can go home and do something more interesting...
The main event final table on Sunday was fantastic! turning into a war of attrition with tons of play and manouvering by all concerned..i for one managed to keep all my opponents down and controlled with strategic strikes and the use of a 300,000 chip hammer...until heads up no one got within 200,000 of me...whilst they jostled for position... the structure also allowed Nick Slade to play some of the deftest poker I have ever seen and I must admit now I was gutted when he escaped elimination when dominated with AJ v AK.....if he had gone then there would have been no chop... Leave the wham Bam to the £20 rebuy crowd and lets play proper poker where skill really is the defining factor ! Title: Re: Luton Main Event Overnight Chip Counts Post by: turny on January 30, 2008, 07:44:15 PM flushy the £20 rebuy crowd i love it! rotflmfao
Title: Re: Luton Main Event Overnight Chip Counts Post by: Royal Flush on January 30, 2008, 07:56:57 PM I'll have you know i won the £20r in Brighton last night, and i only moved in on 80% of the hands in the final. It helps to have 240k of the 340k 6 handed.....
Title: Re: Luton Main Event Overnight Chip Counts Post by: booder on January 30, 2008, 08:05:45 PM no chop?
Title: Re: Luton Main Event Overnight Chip Counts Post by: Royal Flush on January 31, 2008, 02:56:27 AM no chop? When we got HU payouts were 1540 920, i offered to only take 1500 but he said no.... Title: Re: Luton Main Event Overnight Chip Counts Post by: tikay on January 31, 2008, 11:13:13 AM no chop? When we got HU payouts were 1540 920, i offered to only take 1500 but he said no....
