No Dimes For Dempsey
March 25th, 2010 at 10:31 pm

James “RoyalFlush” Dempsey is OUT  took 99 up against the AK of Mark Winter which spiked sending Dempsey either to one of three places

a) The Bar

b) Bed

c) Rehab

"Not quite sure who is chip leader as no-one has ran away with it today, Toby Lewis & Marc Wright are up there both having around 90k each, also doubt rule out Priyan DeMel who also has close to that."
weee blondes at the top...

disappointed at this blonde not being on top

got like 100k i think.... lost a pretty gay pot near the end KK<KTo... but apart from that the day went pretty good.
glgl tomo guys...

Who is it?

Willing to buy triggs line if her name was publicised. Cnt w8 to drive down in 5 hours, I'm not even home yet. Gg gtfo my life.

Ps. Wp demps, u were an inspiration buddy.

Am playing today.  Does anyone know the maximum players, as don't want to get there ridiculously early if I don't have to.

reply to my own post.  200 players, so maybe I should get there not long after 12??

Her name is Jessica Dawley ... Rumit and Flushy were putting in some serious graft with her, Dubai was happy to lay at a million on each of them !

Doubt i have ever played as drunk as that, fun times.

Flushy was that you who came over to me, counted my short stack and said "Lets sack it off and go and get pissed?"

Without being there and having absolutely no clue of anything that happened I can confidently say that yes it was.

Shame.  If you were wearing a BSQ badge you'd have binked a $10k bonus.

also not being there, can confirm it was flushy.

Flushy trying to get people out was pretty much all you could hear on the live stream for about five minutes straight rotflmfao

I wasn't to know the geezer had 66 when a 6 turned.

Bollox.

Good fun though. Freerollin is a top fella.

Paiiiiiii me DryEm

fun final table tomorrow with riverman, vicky coren and channing.

gogogogo Laurence and Mick

Feckin sick turn. Unlucky Camel.

Gonna be a fun final table way Channing and Mick McCool there plenty of banter i'd expect.

Gogogo Mick McCool ftw

norrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

ul bud

+1, gl Micky!

Mick suffering with a bad cold today, could be a bit subdued at the table for a while I think, should be a cracker though, the Canadian Stephen Ducharme is probs most aggressive along with Leon Bui ... Rumit wont be giving his chips away cheaply thats for sure !

Rumit Somaiya - 1,286,000

Wiiiiiiiii, Mick doubles through Rumit

Top Set vs Uber Draw, Mick fades

http://blog.grosvenorukpokertour.com/

Pretty sick beat for Mick UL.

Yuck, ul Mick :(

It was a pleasure playing with you sir, was hoping you would go far with the chips you acquired! AQ hand was sick though.

Thanks for all the GL's guys, was really hoping to make a deep run in this event. I thought I was GG'd though when I got moved over to a new table and saw that it had the likes of Javed Abrahams, Toby Lewis, John Eames, Neil Channing and a good 2/5 Vic regular on it. Managed to survive that table though, but it was The Camel who managed to crush the dreams of a £127k payday.

There was a good end to the night though, I bumped into a mate from Norway at the Vic, and we managed to go through their stock of Black Label in the 2nd floor bar...wiiiiii!

Oh yeah, forgot to add: bubbling sucks.

Cuong is King of London GUKPT


Cuong Tran from London has won the 3rd leg of the London GUKPT, outlasting a field of 318 players to secure the first prize of £127,800. He defeated Neil ‘Bad Beat’ Channing after a short heads up battle in the £1,500 NL Hold’em tournament at the Grosvenor Victoria Casino in London. After Channing had eliminated Leon Bui in 3rd place he held a 2-1 chip lead over 30-year-old Tran, but the outcome was decided in the final two hands of the four-day tournament. In the first of these Tran doubled up and took the chip lead when making a straight on a turn that had improved Channing’s pocket eights to trips. On the very next hand Channing had pocket nines and Tran found himself all-in against him holding T-7. It looked like the former Irish Open champion was going to get right back into it, but a ten on the turn concluded matters in favour of Tran.


Vietnam born Tran, a former beauty salon owner, placed fifth in this same event last year, but was elated to have secured victory this time. Third placed Leon Bui, who was also born in Vietnam is also a former beautician, but like Tran, now spends most of his time playing poker. Tran humbly commented afterwards

“Leon should have won, but I got lucky on the day. Sometimes the cards fall the right way, but hey, that’s poker.”

Tran now intends to play more tournaments on the GUKPT and in particular he has his sights set on the £2,500 Grand Final in November. He has also ensured his participation in December’s £150,000 Champion of Champions tournament.

Property developer Rumit Somaiya, who finished in 4th place went into the final as the chip leader, but was eliminated after losing a massive pot to Channing when holding a straight draw against pocket aces. Canadian student Steven Ducharme finished 5th, while Salman Behbhani from San Diego was 6th. Former greyhound trainer Mick McCool was 7th and Darren Annis, who was the only previous GUKPT winner on the final table exited in 8th place. Broadcaster and journalist Victoria Coren, who four years ago won the EPT London main event went into this final with the lowest chip stack and finished in 9th place. Laurence Houghton, participating in his third GUKPT main event final table completed the line up, exiting in 10th place.

The tour now heads north to Manchester when the G Casino, Bury New Rd hosts the 4th leg from 17th - 25th April. But before then, the second round of GUKPT Club Championship tournaments takes place on Saturday April 10th. New for 2010, the Club Championships are a series of £200 freezeouts, which take place in all 23 G and Grosvenor casinos with poker rooms. The April 10th events are being held at the G casinos in Bolton and Dundee and the Grosvenor casinos in Stoke and Southampton.

Players are now able to buy in online to all GUKPT tournaments via Blue Square Poker and the soon-to-be-launched poker room of tour sponsor gcasino.com. For those who want to relive the GUKPT experience all over again, there is a £150 NL Hold’em Freezeout on Blue Square Poker at 8pm on Monday 29th March as part of the Online 10% Series. GUKPT ranking points are awarded to players in the prize money and a Champion of Champions seat is available to the winner.

The Final Result

  Place Player Prize GUKPT Ranking Points
1st Cuong Tran £127,800 150
2nd Neil Channing £84,700 120
3rd Leon Bui £56,000 96
