Looks like Mr. Thew has only just arrived... latecomers, eh?  A crowd has gathered around the update chairs featuring Red Dog, whom I would be happy to give a go updating if I thought he could drag himself away to go and play.  Malc-M is here too; pictures will be coming once we've got them sitting still in their seats.

Good old hour levels - they are settled into the first level starting with 10,000 chips, at 25 - 50.  We can only wonder what's going on in their hands (and heads) at this point.  Full chip counts, in order, coming in the next 20 minutes, when we reckon they will have moved around enough to be of interest.

Post by: Djinn on December 10, 2005, 06:59:46 PM
It was the Aces, incidentally, which knocked out Willie - the money went in on a flop which had made a set out of his opponent's sevens.

Just saw Simon Nowab coming out of the cardroom, but he said, "No, only lost half of them.  With pocket Jacks."

Gala Javid is OUT

His JJ was taken out by AQ.

The majority of his chips had been lost earlier when his flush was rivered by two pair, KQ, which made a full house.

I'm starting to get peckish here. Any1 got a bone?

The hand which took the rest of Mr. Hewston's already-diminished stack occurred on a board of Q A 3 5 Q.  Ian Woodley's river raise was called by John with his Queen, but Ian showed the  Ac Ad for a big boat.  Almost to the felt, then...


Title: Re: LUTON XMAS CRACKER - MAIN EVENT
Post by: snoopy1239 on December 10, 2005, 07:29:40 PM
Near the start of the comp, Tikay added a few chips to his starting stack when he called Burnley John's preflop raise with Td 9d.

Flop came 9c 9s 5h

Burnley John was holding pocket fives and had dollar signs in his eyes.

Fortunatley for the old fella, the turn came the case nine, saving tikay's stack from serious damage.

River was a ten for good measure.

Something drastic has happened to Steve Vladar's chips, I am sorry to report.  Just saw him moving all-in on a  Ah Ks Kd Kc board (!) and getting a caller in Rob Yong.  They both had raggy Aces to split the pot and Steve has to pick another spot to up his 1,100.


Title: Re: LUTON XMAS CRACKER - MAIN EVENT
Post by: snoopy1239 on December 10, 2005, 07:42:42 PM
Steve Vladar is now officially OUT.

He was down to the felt and pushed in with KQ. A flush draw arrived on the flop, but he failed to 'flush up'.


Title: Re: LUTON XMAS CRACKER - MAIN EVENT
Post by: snoopy1239 on December 10, 2005, 07:43:50 PM
Tikay still hovering around 12k
Aces Trumper - 8.5k
Stuart Nash - 10k
Me - 1000k and nearly won the comp.


Title: Re: LUTON XMAS CRACKER - MAIN EVENT
Post by: Djinn on December 10, 2005, 07:46:28 PM
JP Kelly doubles up - he moved in first to speak against Richard Prew on a board of  6s Ah Qh 3h.  Richard called with his  8h 4h, but JP was in to trouble with his  Th 7h and doubles to just over 10k.

Post by: snoopy1239 on December 10, 2005, 07:54:46 PM
M3boy is avin a faaaaaag.

He's on 13k by the way.

His table initially started with V Kanwar and Chubbs, who were 1st and 2nd at the UK Open with Paul (M3boy) coming in third.

Apparantly Vic is sleeping today and reluctant to get involved.


Title: Re: LUTON XMAS CRACKER - MAIN EVENT
Post by: snoopy1239 on December 10, 2005, 07:58:12 PM
DingDell has 7.6k
Rob Yong, seated next door, holds 8k.
Steve Bovis has risen to 20k.

I like Steve. He has his chips neatly stacked so I can count them.


Title: Re: LUTON XMAS CRACKER - MAIN EVENT
Post by: snoopy1239 on December 10, 2005, 08:02:53 PM
Robert Binelli is OUT.

He's not looking too chuffed and he's quickly finishing off his pint.

Burnley John has 12.5k.

When I asked if Tikay was still running over the table, he didn't take the suggestion too well.



Title: Re: LUTON XMAS CRACKER - MAIN EVENT
Post by: snoopy1239 on December 10, 2005, 08:05:45 PM
I believe Dave Barnes may well be the chip leader with 35k. That's just an approximation though. You need to be Rainman to accurately count his stack!

You may need to be seated for this one.

Anthony Kendall (Yes, that's what the plasma screen reads) is STILL in.

He's hovering around 13k, but looking confident.

He has plenty of green chips, which is the smallest denomination. From my experience, this is a sure sign of a blind stealer.


Title: Re: LUTON XMAS CRACKER - MAIN EVENT
Post by: snoopy1239 on December 10, 2005, 08:13:17 PM
You may have to record the office Louise. Yongster has just doubled up to 17k.

He slowplayed a flopped set allowing his opponent's AK to catch up with an ace on the turn. Rob moved in on the river and was duly paid off.


Title: Re: LUTON XMAS CRACKER - MAIN EVENT
Post by: Djinn on December 10, 2005, 08:14:40 PM
David Courtney - OUT:  He moved in with  Kd Kc and  As Jh took him on... the flop brought one jack, the turn another and he was looking for a hold'em cash game about 30 seconds later, in no way downcast.  "Next one" he says, cheerfully.

Other more recent counts:

Table 9

(1) Womble -    11,700
(2) Mark Harris - 11,725
(3) Micky Wernick - 11,800
(4) Irish Dennis -   9,000

Boody up to 14.7k.

Two lots of Aces.

Once against Sheriff's AK where he extracted 2k off Mr Fatman.

2nd time board was AKT and Boody managed to take 3.5k with his trips v Mateyboy's trip tens. The jack on the turn fizzled the action slightly.

Tighty is down to 5k after tangling with JP.

Both were in the blinds. JP held  Th 7h and Tight had  8h 4h.

The board came out a very harsh Ah 9h 2h putting Tighty into hot hot water.

Tighty bet the flop, JP smooth called.

Turn was a blank. Both checked.

River was another blank. JP made a good check, Tighty bet, JP went all-in for his remainding stack and Tighty called.

9 high flush wins. Ouch. JP was short stacked though, so Tighty lives to fight for another day... or make the 3rd game 20 minutes up the road at cheesey.

The first break has come and gone and the intrepid players are now playing with blinds of 100 - 200.  Still fairly small change, but according to Xuyen there are some early bustouts caused by this being a relatively small comp by some of these players' standards, and so the chase for the old ranking points has been the big draw...

Anyway, I think it's about time for you to see Pino Valentino's shirt, and a few familiar faces.  So off with the camera.

BLONDITE COUNT

MalcM - 7.3k
Camel - 12.1k
Yongster - 13.5k
DingDell - 9k
JP - 9.6k
Tikay - 12.2k
RED-DOG - 9.2k
Foxy - 13k
M3boy - about 15k

Tikay asked me to add on 10k to any reported value of his stack. I said it be hard enough getting them to believe the 12.2k, so I've stuck with the real number.


Title: Re: LUTON XMAS CRACKER - MAIN EVENT

Stuart Nash and Paul Alterman give the table some minor action.

Board reads 3c 3d 3h Jc

Alterman bets several hundred, Nash flat calls.

River = 9s

Nash comes out betting with 1.5k, Alterman briskly mucks.

Nash = 15k
Alterman = 11k

Tighty is now back up to 9.5k after being very short stacked.

Back to back aces and he won both. Miracle.

First set of pocket rockets saw JP raising preflop from early position. Tighty raises all-in and JP calls with jacks. The Tightster doubles up.

Then, on the very next hand, Tighty receives a visit from the bullets yet again. This time Wernick calls his raise, but folds on the flop when Tighty bets out.

Still, he's back in the game and looking a lot more confident.

Great Rob Yong double-up news now -

On a J 9 5 flop, he (from the big blind) bet 1k.  Mateyboy raised to 3k, call.  Turn: 4.  Rob checked, then called the 2k bet.  On the 2 river, Rob checked, and when his opponent put him all-in, called with  9d 6s.  His opponent showed K 10.  Back to 18,000.  Here he is with Dingdell.

Simon Trumper is OUT.

Down to 1.1k, he makes his move only to turn over a strong hand, Ah Kd. Matey boy shows Kc Qc, and Trumper's comeback looks to be on.

Unfortunately the board of 8c 6d Tc 8s Qh spoils the party and 'Aces' is a gonna.

Malc-M is over here which means.... that Mickey took him out.

KK was the hand which got him - Mickey raised with  4h 4s and he (sneaky sneaky) flat called.  The J 4 2 board didn't look suspicious, but the betting took off and his poor old Kings ended up seeing the trips and busting him.  Malc says his tip to win the European Championship is now Mr. Wernick.

I think the updating team is working well as a partnership.

We're like a cake.

Jen is the base. She's the foundations holding up the rest of the cake. She moves and the whole thing collapses.

I consider us more like soup - Tikay is the stock, holding it all together, I am the bits of carrot which add a bit of colour and texture, and snoopy is the pasta shapes which actually keep you going when you need some energy.  But take away an ingredient and it's just less nice.  Currently he is being regaled by Rob Yong who has re-lost half those chips.  I feel a story coming on.

Yongster down to 11k.

He limped with 8-2 on the button.

Flop = 8-4-2

Steve Bovis bets 1k. Yongster raises another 3k. Bovis moves all-in.

Rob mucks his 2 pair, Bovis shows pocket fours.

Kieth 'The Camel' Hawkins is OUT.

Camel raised preflop with  9c 9d.

D Sami reraised with  As Kc.

Camel was short stacked and threw in his remaing chip.

Flop brough a King and the board saw 4 clubs to make both players a flush.

'Magic' Sami (as he wishes to be known) takes the flop with the Kc.

"What," you may ask, "happened to Tikay's stack?"  Well, from what I gather he called Bambos' raise with  Js Qs.  He bet on the 8 10 J flop, again on the 9 turn (unsurprisingly - that meant a straight and flush draw) but the wheels fell off with the Q on the river.  Bambos set him in and he passed - the  Kd Kc had suddenly come good.  Let's see if Tikay''s going to double it back up.

Hehehe the nun - I'll pass on the compliment...

It looks like it's all about those little flopped sets today - they've been responsible for a high proportion of the early exits, from Willie Tann to Mr. Sami just now.  Paul King's AJ just lost him a fairly big pot too when the 2 10 J board brought someone else a set of Tens.  But he's still in, just about.


Title: Re: LUTON XMAS CRACKER - MAIN EVENT
Post by: snoopy1239 on December 10, 2005, 10:31:31 PM
DingDell was down to the felt at one point but has now doubled up to 9.3k.

She raised preflop with A-T before moving all-in on a 2-4-5 flop. Mark Harris called with 9-9, but he was soon to be crying in his soup when the river brought a Ten.

Nice.

DingDell is still on what I refer to as the 'Table Of Dooooooooooooom'.

Wernick, Irish Dennis, JP, Tighty, Womble, still accompanying her.


Title: Re: LUTON XMAS CRACKER - MAIN EVENT

Post by: Djinn on December 10, 2005, 10:41:26 PM
Just as the blinds reach 300 - 600, Joe Grech takes out Trevor Webber, raising preflop with  Th Jh.  Trevor called in the blind with  Kd 6c and hit the  Kh 9h 6h board hard enough to push all-in, but Joe had hit it even better and gained another 8k or so.

Dan Samson doubles up - he saw a  3d 8h Qh board with Greek Jack, who bet and found an all-in check raise.  He called with  Kd Qc, which to be fair was ahead of Dan's  Kh 9h, but the turn and river were both of the heart variety, and he knocked about 10k off K. Dionysiou's stack.

Dan Samson raised under the gun with  Qh Qs, got a re-raise and then an all-in from Pino Valentino.  He passed.  They both showed AK and though the  Ad came straight away, it was followed by two Queens!  Lots of shouting drew our attention, but we got the story straight from the horse's mouth.

Alrighty more pics coming -

Just starting up again, blinds 400 - 800.  Joe Grech has been moved to Tikay's table and Tikay says this is his perfect chance to double up... I asked Joe if he would help him out and he said, "I'll help him to go out."

TightEnd runs into trouble with his  Qd Qc which was called all-in by  Kc Jd.  The flop brought a Queen, but the following cards were less kind, eventually bringing a straight-finishing  9c on the river.  The next hand his AK ran into Steve Bovis' AA to finish him off after a harsh post-prandial couple of hands.  "It's just tough going for me at the moment - I'm not doing anything wrong so there's no problem though."  I hear you.

Evening ariston - Womble: 9,500, Simon: 13,000.

There are murmers of some kind of side bet on picks of three, which is exciting for those who chose Stuart Fox (35,000) and Steve Bovis (30,000) but Tikay has just 6,000 left... glad I didn't make any such wagers... but just for the record, anyone have any picks to share with the viewer-readers?

Charmaine - he's down to just 7k or so I'm afraid.  They have just broken another table bringing the number of tables remaining to 4.  Play continues until 3:30am today/tomorrow and then tomorrow afternoon the rest happens.  Just going to get some more counts - I leave this pic of Womble and Pino Valentino to amuse you.

Simon Zach is OUT.

Brace yourselves, it's a painful one.

Mateyboy raises preflop to 2700. Simon flatcalls with A-K.

Flop comes A-5-3

Simon moves all in for a whopping 35k in order to win the pot there and then.

Mateyboy calls and shows A-Q.

Queen on the turn and Zach is out, understandably devestated.

Mateyboy is now stacked up and probably chip leader.

We'll try and get his name for you.

Dave 'Boodereham' Baker is OUT

New arrival at the table, Carlo Citrone, raises it up preflop to 2800.

Boody, sitting on the big blind, peers down to see Big Slick,  Ah Kc, and moves all-in for 19k.

Carlo calls in a flash and shows  Qs Qh.

Flop is good for boody, but dangerous.

Jh Ts Qd

Boody holds his breath as the turn comes 2c.

Then devestation when the dealer flips over the river to reveal the Jc giving Carlo a full house.

Hard luck Mr Boody. The board always teases.

Tikay is living on the edge.

He moves all-in from the button with Ac 8c.

The big blind ponders momentarily before calling with Ad 9h.

Flop comes a rather lovely looking Jc Td Js

Turn = Kd giving Tikay a split pot.

River = harmless 5s


So...

BREAKING NEWS


Tikay is still in!

With a stack of over 80k, Stuart Fox is threatening the chip leaders.  He just knocked out another player with a lucky pair of Deuces (they were up against QQ) - they hit a flop of  Kc Kd 2s square on and (all-in on the flop) gave him a tower of chips.  Which is hard to count accurately.

Also out are Pino Valentino (who never took his coat off long enough for me to snap his great shirt), Martin Green, and Chris Mycroft.


Title: Re: LUTON XMAS CRACKER - MAIN EVENT
Post by: snoopy1239 on December 11, 2005, 01:29:36 AM
Hold onto your hats folks.

Tikay has doubled up.

Yes people of Blonde, you heard me right. Tikay has some chips!!!

His preflop raise found a caller in chip leader Adda.

Adda shows J-J.

Tikay turns over a King, followed by... Blimey, it's another King. And it isn't a misread!

The board is harmless and the cowboys stand up for the cowboy.

Tikay's back in town guns ablazing. Yeeeeeehaaaaa...

Post by: Djinn on December 11, 2005, 01:36:30 AM
More counts (not planning on kissing the players, sadly - not part of the remit) but will pass on the goodwill :)

Steve Bovis    50,000
Dave Clark      17,000
Paul Moss       13,000
Mohammed Asif  28,000
Womble          9,500
Pascal Perrault  26,000
Ian Woodley    27,500

Title: Re: LUTON XMAS CRACKER - MAIN EVENT
Post by: snoopy1239 on December 11, 2005, 01:52:05 AM
BLONDITE COUNT

RED-DOG - 20.8k

He was on 9.5k, but has just doubled up. He went all-in from the button with Ah 3s. The big blind called with Ad 4d.

Board = 3s Ts 8d 6h Qs


Tikay - 16k

Foxy - around 90k

I believe M3boy is down to 5k. He is looking rather disgruntled and is fiddling around with one 5k chip. I don't think he has any others.

AA gets hammered by KQ news now (thanks a bundle to Helen - how helpful is that?) -

Micky Wernick = 55k


Womble faces an all-in bet from mateyboy directly on his left.

Womble does some first class dwelling with a flop of Ad 7d 5d before mucking and showing the Ac.

Womble is left with 14k.

Blinds 600-1200, so no need to panic.

Another out. They're dropping like flies now. Well, two flies...

Ian Woodley is OUT.

Perrault raises preflop with A-J, Woodley reraises all-in with A-K, Perrault makes a brave call.

Board = 9-T-Q-8-3

... giving Pascal a straight.

Ouch.

We are down to just three tables.  Aerial view full table photos to follow (well, me standing on a chair view).  But first, spare a thought for Ian Woodley, who is out and experiencing that "sick of poker" feeling when AK is beaten by both AQ and AJ in fairly rapid succession.  He says he'll be going to bed never wanting to play again, but probably by tomorrow night be looking for a game.  Such is poker.

Stuart Fox extracts a few thousand off Paul Parker.

Board showed K-T-Q-A-rag

Foxy bets 4k on the river. For some reason, there's a crowd hovering. Not sure why, not a massive pot. Maybe it's because I'm there.

Paul calls the 4k and mucks when Foxy turns over a jack for the straight.

Foxy marches on.

I must report the demise of Tikay - He spotted a spot on the button and moved in (short stacked again after Ariel Adda pushed him off a big pot) with  6h 7d.  Great timing, as the big blind had  Ks Kd!  The flop and turn brought some hope - 7 8 8 5, but the 5 river sent him out so close to (yet) another final.  Don't let him try to convince you that it was him with the Kings, as I just saw with RedDog and Tracey...

Don't worry Trace - just because snoopy is a real person you needn't stop believing in those other, slightly less real people!  There's no toothfairy here today to ruin your preconceptions with a funny photo...not that I think that photo is funny.  I took it; it's artistic, and he looks good.

jeff looks down to find  pockets kk

jeff hates playing big hands so was expecting the outdraw to come

the sight of two kings appearing on the flop put his mind to rest

flopping quads on the last hand of the night cant be bad

well played jeff  51k now

Hi all - just got home and read the reports - great reporting from all!

Having been cruelly dismissed from the tourney (Ok I made a rubbish call) I spent the rest of the evening with Kev drinking gin at the bar and putting the world to rights....never ever drink at the casino so it made a nice change to loose money and care even less about it than before.....hmmmmm.....

Good luck to every one that's left but especially Bern Litman who I have 10% of! :D
