Starts on Wednesday in France, i am thinking of going but it is dependant on selling shares.

Imagine the GPT but even weaker given its all French players!

The buyin is €8500 i am looking to sell 10% shares for €1350, so just under 1.6 which is pretty generous given the standard.

I would need this all locked up by the weekend in order to sort travel and accom.

Cheers!

GL m8, would buy if had fundage, although think 1.6 is little to steep. ship it! TAPIS!

good luck with this flushy.

no funds for backing but am sure you will get it.

1.6 too steep!!!!

Think i am well above 2 here

if i had funds i would take some action. gl m8  but i'm out.

Seriously, if you think you are well above 2 v the field, why not keep all your action ?

Because 8500€ is a lot of money

And he's broke from staking everyone else.   rotflmfao

Only messing.  Good luck with it. 

i hear its the only way he makes money these days

You not got that sort of cash lying down behind the sofa?  ;)  Sure one of your horses will luckbag something big and get you the funds.

I'd deffo take a punt on it if I had enough cash :(  if I get a coupon up on saturday of if I uckbox something online on the next few days I am in on a share.

Go Flushy!

Im sure youll happily fold to French Donks.

do you know if they are running a live sat before the event? I can't see anything on their site, only a couple of smaller comps?

Not sure, i would assume so

i thought they would aswell, It looks there is one in aix en provence tomorrow possibly but its a bit vague. I might have to phone them as the web site is terrible, what is the venue? I can't even find that on the website?

glglglgl win all the monies 1% ---> 10k euros pls

There's an €800 sattelite according to poker player magazine...

Good luck dude...

Already down £300 because i couldn't get € anywhere but the bank, LIFE TILT!

free@lloydstsb

eh?

Obv its free everywhere i am talking about the rate.

1.6!!!???  Looking forward to seeing this outcome.  Great terms boys  :)

happy to play for stacks with AQ.......good luck boys............(not my blog by the way)

After dropping down to just under 20,000, my A10 beat by a short stack's QQ, I eventually found what I was looking for 10 minutes from the end of play. I raise to 3100 utg with AK. James Dempsey re-raises to 9100 on the button, he is playing around 25,000. I re-raise allin, and he calls with AQ. Just under a 40k pot, if I win this I am comfortbale going into day 2. Unfotunately the first card out was a Q and that was that. I love poker sometimes.

The above was an EPT.  Boldie will be on momentarilty to defend Mr Flush.........

obv we aint backing him for his poker ability, were backing him cos he runs good.

glglgl flushy win it all

[ x ] JJ sometimes loses to Q6

[ x ] gtf over it

lol wheres the hate come from?!  and how isnt that hand anything but standard?

DungBeetle<<<<<James Dempsey.

Live players are lol. This happens like twice a day everyday.

Anyone know if there's somewhere to get updates on this one ?

flushy's I-phone imho. 

GL flushy.

lol funny thing about that it was against Pommo!! Who was obv pfr'ing in the 20's

AQ was maaaaaaaaaaasive.

Dung lifetime i am over 2.5 so selling at 1.6 in a weak field with a slow structure is way above fair.

Why are you selling anyway if this field is so weak?

Conceded Pomroy's opening range < AQ.  Was a bit tipsy last night and just trying to stir up some trouble in a juvenile way ;)

Anyway - good luck (still think 1.6 is outrageous though:) )

Spotted a few scandies here tonight but other than that seems like field is full of very rich French/Italian people

How many runners they expecting for this?

And how many days is it being played over?

2 Day 1's tomorrow and Thursday.

After that Fri and Sat play till last 8

Sun final

Sound like a poker players dream.

Gl Flushy.

cheers flushy.

good luck.

[  ] our small syndicate won't fly over to france and meet you at the cash desk if you win the 1million euro's

lololol. roaaaaaaad trip.

and then on to sunny Marbella with our sick dimez.

lol

GL Flushy

Sod the tournament then - just go and sit at a cash table and wait for the bustees.

GL Flushy ... win it all !!

Been informed that the standard is ridic bad as expected. Pokernews are doing updates here.....http://www.pokernews.com/live-reporting/partouche-poker-tour-cannes/main-event/day1a/


obv i hope this is ok to post but if not mods feel free to chop.


gl Flushy 1 Tiiiime!

Wow look at the updates:-


[ ] stacking off with QK on a 510Q board on the first level is smart
[ ] calling down chris fergusons utg open multiway w 66 on 8447A two streets is +EV

"British player James Dempsey informed me that the French players on his table love to see flops. "All but one hand has gone at least as far as the flop so far. The one that didn't took a raise of 8,500 to get everyone out!""

LOL

I think this could lead to some jokes......

"the French Deck

Our modern 52-card deck of playing cards is commonly known as the "French deck," having been altered and modified through centuries of play. This style of card is used worldwide with some slight variations. In the United States, we are familiar with the Anglo-American style of the deck. The face cards, from lowest rank to highest, are labeled "J" for Jack, "Q" for Queen, and "K" for King.

Here in France, we are getting used to their own traditional variation on that format. Face cards, from lowest to highest, are ranked "V" for Valet, "D" for Dame, and "R" for Roi. During our reporting, we will be using the Anglo-American lettering for face cards, to avoid any confusion."


I got Kings....shit jacks!

tyty

win it alllllllllllllllllll.

gl flushy

win it pls

win it alllllllll

Third Pair No Good
Just before the break James Dempsey took a few chips off an opponent. Dempsey was sitting on the button and bet 300 into a multi-way limped pot after a  Kc 3s Td    flop was dealt. Only a player in middle position called before both players checked through the  5d turn.

The river brought  Qc  prompting Dempsey to bet 500. His opponent insta-called with   Tc but it was no good to beat Dempsey's   Qd 7d

Dempsey up to 25,000 now.

Nice Play.

Keep it Up!!!!!!

Flushy's Flush
The flop was out and looked like  5h 8s 4c   . Three players still had cards and one of those was James Dempsey who bet 900 when it was checked to him on the button. Both his opponents called so the turn was dealt as  3h .

This time a player in middle position bet 1,000 and only Dempsey called before the river came  7h . Once more the player in middle position led out for a 1,000 bet but Dempsey raised to 10,000 that time, enough to put his opponent all in.

His opponent snap-called and showed an eight but it was no good against Dempsey's  Kh Qh  for a flush.

Dempsey up to 32,000 now.

Nice Flop

James Dempsey's stack had dwindled down to about 30,000 before he made a standard raise from middle position. He found a caller in the big blind before the flop came {3-Clubs} {3-Hearts} {6-Clubs}.

It was checked to Dempsey who continued his aggression with a 3,050 bet. His opponent promptly made this 7,000 to play. Not deterred by this move, Dempsey re-raised up to 23,000 signaling his intent to play for his whole stack. The message must have beamed across loud and clear as the big blind player duly folded.

Dempsey told me after wards that he was holding {4-Clubs} {5-Clubs}. So, not a bad flop to play back at an opponent!

lol such a comical tournament, despite the ridic juice of €1500

If my net worth this time next year is 9k i am playing this comp.


Got 107k at the end of the day and even managed to get Gus Hansen to call ME a sick man, lolz

Seriously though the standard was insane people stacking so light pre and post with 400BB!

gogogogogoogo win it allllllllll.

[  ] happy i didnt get involved for % like everyone else

£0 pn and less than 20 min drive>>>>>>>£200pn and it aint even that great

No worries Flushy.  You're going to win the tourney and won't even notice the bill when you check out.

Raising Machine
James Dempsey is in the middle of a chat with Glen Chorny about how much the Englishman has been raising today when Demsey finds another hand he likes enough to raise and it happens to be into Chorny's big blind. The raise is to 3,000 and finds a call from the player in the on the button before the short stacked small blind goes all-for 13,600.

Chorny folds before Demsey tries to isolate and shoves over a big stack of 5,000 chips. It works as the player on the button folds to leave it heads-up. Dempsey tables   and his opponent winces and we see why as he reveals  .

The dealer takes us all the way to the river on this one     .

A set of nines good to see Dempsey rise up to 129,000 while his opponent takes the walk of shame out of the room.

Ship ship, GL Flushy

He just lost a decent chunk..

Raises Q7o in CO. button and bb call. BB leads the QJ4 flop for 6k, Flushy calls button folds. turn 6, check check, river T, check and flushy bets 6k, sb min raises and flushy calls..

AQ for SB :(

min raises on the river = big hands from moronic players no?


gl frogbasher!!!!!!!

LOL two texts :

"Sick 3 limps at 1k, i make it 7k with T4 from the bb, woman from hand before flats and check folds the 445 flop for 6k, FML"

"Just lost a big race sigh, 3 bet AI with AK soooted and TT called"

125k @ 600/1200

"150,000 in Chips Down the Drain for 'Flushy'

James 'Flushy' Dempsey just went from having 150,000 in chips to none in a matter of minutes, sparked by one pivotal pot that left him with less than 26,000 in chips.

The pot saw Dempsey make it 5,500 to go from the button and Philippe Rottemberg made the call from the big blind. The flop came {Q-Clubs} {Q-Spades} {2-Clubs} and Rottemberg opened with a 6,000 bet. Dempsey then raised to 20,000 and Rottemberg re-popped it to 40,000.

Holding {6-?} {9-?} and on a complete bluff, Dempsey moved all in putting his opponent to a decision for all of his chips. Much to Dempsey's dismay, Rottemberg made the call with {K-?} {Q-?} and Dempsey was drawing dead.

The hand that dealt the fatal blow came shortly after when Flushy announced 'Tapis' and slide his stack, worth 23,000, across the betting line. Joseph Balvay opted to call and the rest of the table folded.

"I've got three outs . . . I just don't know which three," Dempsey said as he tabled {A-Diamonds} {5-Clubs}. Balvay then revealed {J-Spades} {4-Spades}, saying "I like greens!" in reference to Dempsey's four stacks of green chips that were up for grabs.

The {8-Spades} {9-Diamonds} {Q-Spades} flop was a poor one for Dempsey, as it gave his opponent flush and gutshot straight draws.

"That's a good flop . . . I'm a big fan," he said, sarcastically of course.

The turn brought the {7-Clubs}, at which point Dempsey got out of his chair and said "Well played," as he misread the club for a spade. After a double take, he regained interest in the river which brought the {J-Hearts}, giving Balvay a single pair and the best hand.

"Well played," Dempsey muttered again, as he wished the rest of the table good luck and exited the tournament area."






Big talk, 2 French guys make him take walk La Croisette. This I like.

Reported wrong? Or the guy he re-re popped must have been at it more than me!

4 bet bluffing with 70 players left and €1m first prize is a good idea.....

unlucky.

sighhhhhhh, gg.

Am feeling so sick right now, i blew a really good shot at $1.4m never will a find a comp with 70 runners left that weak, sigh

looked well yetiish to me m8, i probs felt 99 in his shoes tbh :)

Ul m8, u gave it good shot and he probs folds a bunch, there will be next year lol.

How was this Rottemberg character playing before the KQ hand?

Tight, sigh



If you felt 99 here please return the $1580 i sent you!

Whats up with the rubdown from the frenchies? LOL

When do we go through this one on the HA board?

;)

when flushys had the time to justify it.

unjustifiable

Decent run anyway - with your style these hands will happen.  Live by the sword die by the sword and all that.  Good chance missed though from the sound of it though (this isn't a rubdown by the way).  Is this an annual event?  Haven't heard of it before. 

7 Frogs 1 Swiss is this final.


Next year more rosbif. Your money we like. Merci.

I LOL'd

can i still invest in this?

This you like?

Do you actually have any money?

Meh not really was an uncharacteristic move for me, i still don't know why i did it, i was half way through my thought process when somehow my mouth just opened and said 'tapis'

Yeah annual event, will have online sats next year apparently, gg value

Is it part of a tour or just a one off event.  Can we play Partouche amongst the vineyards of Avingnon or the historic venues of Normandy? ;)  I assume as this is GF it must be - their equiv of UKPT?

lol just seen the guy who won it was a complete tard from my starting table, he stacked off 20k @ 25-50 on a 754 flop with QQ

put Lawrence Gosney in the same category - I made a play on him with a 234 board at Bolton whilst he was holding a big overpair.
He only dwelled for 30 seconds before calling my all in with KK - FML!

he was ahead?

mais oui - it was a limped pot v good chance could have hit with A5 for wheel on flop.

No complaints I missed my 7 outs and wouldnt play the hand that way again.
