It tends to settle down later as the field and stacks consolidate

Today the plan is to play another Nine levels, or reach the final first. Nine levels then

Victor Ilyukhin raises in the cut off

Jon Prested flats on the button

Shorter Stacked Dan Borwn shoves the small blind

Ilyukhin iso-shoves...or so he thinks

as he is met with a snap call by Prested


3 way all in


Ilyukhin  Jd Jc

Prested  Ad Aspades

Brown  2s 2h

Aces hold, Prested takes both out and goes over 100,000

Karl Mahrenholz has taken out Stephen Eames and Keir Ratcliff. Eames A-10 on a ten high board, Karl with Kings


---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ian Woodley 60,000 or so, recently shoved over a Talal Shakerchi raise, from the button, got a fold, and made some more progress

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


57 left, 10 gone already today

chris o'donnell and dan rudd to take this down, 1st and 2nd (not sure what order though :p )

How is "all systems go" Gurpreet getting on please?

Go on "shit" JP as Spinks calls him

Simon Hemsworth gets it all in with QQ versus John Man in the big blind on J-2-10-8, Man holding J-9. Jack on the river to knock Simon out

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Jeff Kimber 2,400 on the button, James Price 7,600 in the small blind, Kimber 16,000 on the button, Price passes

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Andros Spyrou wins a big pot against Max Youzdani with J-J on 8-10-K-2-J

Chris Kyriacou insists I tell you all that Max got "jacked off"

Humour works best when it is dry and understated I find


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Danny "Up the Mariners" Rudd drew the tiger on especially this morning with tracing paper and a HB pencil

(https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/_M7mySuUsa6c/TYTC9iKlpaI/AAAAAAAAQX0/-a3dfDN_dA0/IMG_5998.JPG)

Ben Jenkins. No scarf today.

(https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/_M7mySuUsa6c/TYS4IG4oLVI/AAAAAAAAQXQ/rzRdAqoMzio/IMG_5992.JPG)

Tiger blood a la Charlie Sheen

Chris Kyriacou raises utg, and Max Youzdani calls in mid position

The now shortstracked Chris Jaromin shoves in the big blind

Kyriacou iso shoves

Youzdani sighs, says "I have a pair but it is not big enough"

Kyriacou, with whom these updates have some history after his questionable behaviouur was the subject of much debate in GUKPT Luton in 2008, I think, begins his patter

"How can you fold a pair here, are you mad?"

Youzdani folds  Tc Td face up

Jaromin flips  9c 9h

Kyriacou  Ad Kc

flop  6h Ahrt Aspades

Kyriacou "Man you are bad, how can you pass tens? Put a ten down dealer, teach him a lesson"

No ten arrives, no nine comes


Not a fan of it myself, a fine line with this play between cheekiness and going OTT

Anyway, Jaromin out and Kyriacou over 150,000

With 55 left after the first level of the day, where I am struggling to keep up with everything I want to report, Kennedy and Yuen remain chip leaders

Hot on the heels of these two are Karl Mahrenhold...and here is his 180,000 stack

(https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/_M7mySuUsa6c/TYTG8m3WZ6I/AAAAAAAAQYM/-Azih0mPXAA/IMG_6000.JPG)

and Praz Banzi

(https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/_M7mySuUsa6c/TYTG_PL4vdI/AAAAAAAAQYY/gJjaYCdPFk4/IMG_6003.JPG)


both amassing chips like the tournament play class acts they are

Sunny Nagi 85,000 and sitting to the right of Mahrenholz after a table break

"He's a pest" he reports, in heartfelt manner

Also still in great shape is the pride of Essex David Rudling

(https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/_M7mySuUsa6c/TYTG7wE6vmI/AAAAAAAAQYI/rqe_DLQ7aFo/IMG_5999.JPG)

Looking somewhat glum a shorter stacked Ian Woodley

Normally the life and soul of most tables, but not today....

I did warn you about the shirt

(https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/_M7mySuUsa6c/TYTG-cmWwVI/AAAAAAAAQYU/Lt5q_Qr_aMI/IMG_6002.JPG)

Andros Spyrou is also on table Karl/Nagi

Dangerous player, likes to play a lot of flops, Has tourettes too.

Nice guy

Its a Saturday of miracles. Anthony Kennedy is still in and his beloved Albion beating the gunners. Nice kid that he is I ain't feeling the love for Danny Rudd. Once a cod head always a cod head.

Just seen the most wonderful hand

Jamie Roberts raises pre and Anthony Kennedy calls in the big blind


flop  5c Qd Qc

Kennedy checks

Roberts 3,000

Kennedy 8,000 called

turn  Kh

check, check

river  Ts


Kennedy 10,000

Roberts 40,000

Long think, Kennedy asks how much Roberts has left

"75,000 behind" is the answer

Kennedy all in


this is two of the chip leaders clashing


Roberts thinks and thinks

He looks at Kennedy and says

"I Have a house"

"King Queen?"

"Pocket Fives?"

Kennedy replies

"You can always fold"

Roberts

"I don't see why you'd raise me back if you just have a Queen"

"I have Pocket tens"

Kennedy is implacable


Eventually, to "wows" from the table Roberts passes  Td Tc face up

Kennedy stands up and screams "You have been bluffed mate"

and shows  Qs

"I'll show you the other for £500"

Roberts "£100"

Kennedy "No"

Roberts "Go on then, £500"

Kennedy "No way (laughing). I had  Ks Qs though, I promise. Great fold"

ok after all that, which played out over about 15 minutes we've reached the end of Level 11 and a short break

43 left, 25 paid

Average is 85,500

blinds go 1000-2000/200 in 15 mknutes time


Chip counts to follow when they are emailed to me


Please stick around, this is going to be a good one

 Nagi down to 40,000

"Couple of big hands, lost Ace Jack against Ace King when I had to call off, had to 3 bet fold a few. Bad day so far"

Andros Spyrou knocked out Chuck Clark last hand before the break 4-4 v 9-9 on an 8 high board, 4-4 setted

Pack it in Tighty.

They are the same person, trust me.

Is it just me who thinks that 10 10 fold is just baffling?

Interested. Why is it baffling? Not saying it isn't, just would like to hear why...

Jon Spinks knocks out Paul Mendes first hand back after the break QQ v 10-10 all in pre

IDK I mean he's like losing to one hand. Kennedy is a bit of livewire too. I can deffo see him shoving with a bare queen on the river.

Kev Parkes doubles through, QQ v James Price JJ

Chipcount for Spinks pls? And Prested and Grafton also please Tight one

Jon Prested in the foreground, Jim Dunsford has 4 bet, david Gassian and Rajabimontizeri at the far end of the table

Darren Annis in seat one who was the 3 bettor from the big blind and is out of shot, folded

(https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/_M7mySuUsa6c/TYTsRHB3BqI/AAAAAAAAQZc/cwOjIep6BzY/IMG_6013.JPG)

On a flop of Q-J-2

Jim Dunsford leads
Matin Jouzdani re-raises
Jim sets him all in

Matin thinks saying i don't think you believe i have anything and makes the call

Jim has Q-J for two pair
Matin has Q-7 for one pair

No runner runner help for Matin and he is out

30 left

Jon Prestead raises
Rajabimontazeri moves all in
Jon calls

Rajab 3-3
Jon K-K

Board 5-10-Q-7-A

Kings hold and we lose another player

AWOP pic of their feature table..better than my camera can take!


seats 1 onwards


Duffy, Parks, Karl Mahrenholz, De Weert, Kyriacou, Spryos, Winberg, Loesser, Nagi(now out)

(http://i427.photobucket.com/albums/pp358/TeamAWOP/MBN/DSCF9764.jpg)

Parkes v Kennedy heads. I want it And so does caroline

Danny D'Borin out 29th

-------------------------------

Max Winberg limps utg, Caroline De Weert raises to 7,500 on the button

Chris Kyriacou calls in the small blind. Winberg calls

flop  8c 8d 4h

De Weert leads for 15,000

Kyriacou 30,000

De Weert shoves for 79,000 more

Now you may have seen the length of the dwell on the live feed. Inordinate.

De Weert looks nervous to be fair, and Kyriacou picks up on this and leans over towards her, and she smiles as if he hand has been well and truly caught in a Greek Cypriot cookie jar

Eventually he folds. He tells me he had Jacks. He shows me a Jack. Not both though

She kindly flips  6h 6d

and takes down a big pot

Kyriacou is momentarily silenced, if he had Jacks he's made a mistake pre (clearly, no 3 bet from the small bind) and has then 3 bet folded on the flop, a fold that might cost him a money finish here

So a break for 45 minutes now after 13 levels


28 are left and 25 are paid

blinds go 1500-300/300 next

Average is currently 131,300


Chip counts will be with you as soon as I can

Please rejoin at about 7pm as we move through the bubble into the cash and probably to a final table tonight

It's Saturday

It's 7pm


Welcome to Saturday night entertainment

For someone, it will be No likey No lighty, as this happens

The dealer next to Kimber is a nice girl she works @ the G Cov. Just thought you'd all like to know that!

GL Prested and Spinks!

Good News then, I'm at the G in cov  next weekend, hope she's dealing on my table!!

Very easy on the eye.

Darren Annis shoves and Bruno Fernades calls in the big blind, just covering Annis


A-K plays K-Q, Annis Ahead pre. Queen on the flop, but the board plays switchback running out as below to double Annis up with Broadway straight

Jon Spinks raises from a stack of 78,000

Ken Wong sets him in

Spinks snaps with A-Q

Wong has 4-3 off!! Presumably Spinks snapping was not part of the plan

Wong flops an open ended straight draw but misses to send Spinks into the rarefied orbit of 165,000

Let's go team kimbrenholz

Gwan Sponks and Prested!

With 70,000 in the middle of the pot

board reads   Tc  2h  8c Qs Ks

Marco Fratelli bets 60,000 into Praz Banzi

Banzi thinks and thinks

Eventually he says to Fratelli

"Whatever you want me to do I will do. These people watching (points at me) are my witness. What do you want me to do?"

I am not sure Marco's English is up to the speechplay to be frank. He doesn't reply

Banzi "I am a man of my word, if you want me to call i will call"

Silence.

Banzi tosses his cards away, not a happy bunny. Doesn't like giving up a decent pot.

Excellent mike work on the live feed Tighty

xx

We're on the bubble

Jon Young opens to 7,000

Bruno fernades all in for his last 4,000

Rudling and Kimber call

flop  Th 8d 3h

Rudling bets 4,000 rest fold

Rudling  Jd Td

Fernandes  Qh  7h

Pretty good for him really, an over and the flush draw

However he misses and departs 27th



26th gets zero

25th up £3310

Get tighty on the mic all the time.

Most active table is that with Prester, Loesser and Kennedy


just now Loesser bet 24,000 into 35,000 on the river of a  8s 4d 6h Qh 2h board after big blind Prested had checked

Prested passes with difficulty and is shown  Kh 7h, which was the pre-flop raising hand from the hijack

+1

Next weekend!

APAT Coventry. I get the front of house gig.

So hand for hand.

The shortest stacks are Max Winberg, Kev Parkes, Jamie Roberts, Jon Young, Darren Annis

Of course anything can happen, but those are the stacks that look committed if they enter a pot

Wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii you'll be brill as always!!!

Now get to fecking work ;o)

xx

the blinds go up now to 2000-4000/400

One of the short stacks, name withheld to protect his desperation, just came over to Dena and insisted that the clock should be paused before the blinds go up

"we've been playing for two days, the blinds should be stopped"

He received short shrift from the tousle haired TD with the temptress looks


Of course, this was within earshot of the table. Perhaps the odd raise on his big blind might be in order....

On a board of

 9s  8h Jh Anthony Kennedy in the big blind checks, Pre flop raiser Jon Prested checks and caller Greg Haik checks

Turn  6d

Kennedy leads for 15,000 into 22,000

Prested calls

Haik bumps it to 50,000 with 120,000 behind

Kennedy looks sick, and eventually folds. 

he insists  6h 6c after Prested folded

 "I'm convinced that was a good fold" he tells the table

She is the man and won't take any monkey business

This is a

(http://i.telegraph.co.uk/multimedia/archive/01455/long-bubble_1455920i.jpg)

45 minutes and counting on this bubble so far. Perhaps 10 hands in this time hand for hand

Interestingly the medium stacks sitting inert and hoping that someone will do their dirty work for them are getting dragged into this

blinds 2000-4000 so for the 10 or so stacks sub 80,000 its clenched posterior time

Amongst the big stacks, where most of the few flops are being see the chip leaders are, in no particular order


Kimber

Mahrenholz

Prested

Kennedy

Loesser

Rudling

Spyrou

Caroine De Weert doubles through Marco Fratelli

She plays 2-2 pre

He calls A-7dd in the blinds

flop 2-4-J two diamonds

In they all go, and the set holds

go on wholllllllllllllllllyfllooooooosh

Andrew Warnes shoves his last 18,000 in late position with A-6 off

Darren Annis in the blinds calls with...K-6

Ace Six holds, Warnes goes above 40,000 and we continue on the bubble

It has suddenly hit me

=

(http://pageslap.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/live_long_and_prosper.jpg)

Amazingly 70 minutes plus into the bubble

Only seen one short stack all in confrontation and he doubled

Of course as the shorties cling on the active Kimber, Karl, Banzi and the others are making hay

Jon Spinks is also right slap bang in the mix. Anyone would think he'd played bubble periods before.

We have a scheduled break in 7 minutes, and chip counts will follow then

blinds next hit 3000-6000/500. That will be crunch time

Oh

they are playing no break and no blind increase til we break the bubble

Oh

Liv, Long and Prosper

Kyriacou opens 12,900

Winberg shoves for 14,000

Duffy calls in the big blind

Kyriacou calls for the 1100 extra


board runs out Q-J-8-10-9 for a three way chop

Can think of worse pass times ;o)

Kimber opens on the button

Rob Topp shoves for 27,000 in the big blind

Kimber calls

Topp  Ac Qc

Kimber  Qs Tc

Topp turns the nut flush to double up


We carry on....

u couldnt make it up!

That's the funniest thing I've seen on a live update thread for ages.
Congratulations.

Max Winberg the shortstack playing 17,000 at 2000-4000/300

He's survived 80 minutes plus so far......

Jamie Roberts 23,000 and has survived for 80 minutes

Kev Parkes has 26,000 and has survived 83 minutes

Jon Spinks has about 200,000

Jeff Kimber the same

they've raised every hand between them for 84 minutes.....

We play 9 levels today or make the final first. We've played six.

the clock is currently paused at the end of the 2000-4000 level

An interesting decision that, or so I thought........

I tried to get closer to take the pic, honest

Max Winberg is MASSIVE short stack at the minute with only 7,000. He has just been through the blinds.

Jamie Roberts is also very short with only 20,000.

Big big 270,000 chip pot

On a board of Q-4-2-A-10

Prested elads for 40,000 on the river having raised pre and bet all streets

Kennedy check raises him all in and is snapped off by AA

Kennedy mucks and Prested becomes a 450,000 chip leader, approx

15 minute break

Why?

the bubble has burst

Jon Young of Team Sky Poker out 23rd A-J v Rob Topp's A-Q

There was a money jump for 23rd, winning £3,680

is it me or does rudling ever fail to miss/ horribly outdraw someone

David Gassian out 22nd QQ battered by Jon Spinks A8

Louise Duffy out 21st Q8 shove, Caroline De Weerdt calls with K8 and holds


The bubble burst has turned into a bursting dam of exits as these short stacks get it in

Have you got matching socks on??

Yes. Grey.

20 left with 5 exits in the first fifteen minutes of the new level

Money is £3,680 up to 14th

Anthony Kennedy out 20th, the damage done by the Prested set of Aces an hour ago

Another success story since the break

Scotsman Gary Lindsay has spun 35000 into 190000 while I have been typing up exit after exit....

GOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGO WAYNE!!!!!

Team Sky Poker FTW

Keep going Tighty, doing a grand job. Pls can you tell Phil to put the camera on Karl's table :)

See you tomorrow when I rail Karl ftw and Jeff/Praz for 2nd and 3rd.

C'mon Clarke Kent......!!!!

Way it's going hopefully you'll be out of there by midnight Tighty!!

I join the action with the flop reading

 5d Jd 3c

Loeser in the big blind checks, Prested bets 13,000, from the cut off

Turn  Ac

Loeser checks, Prested 22,000 called

River  2c

Loeser checks, Prested overbet 115,000 into a really wet board

Loeser considers. He is the only player on the table who covers Prested, counts out the call and folds


These two are battling for the chip lead ahead of Karl, Praz, Spyrou, Rudling, Spinks and Kimber

Three way all in

Rudling KK

Topp JJ

Warnes 10-10

All in pre

Kings hold

Rudling knocks out Andrew Warnes 19th, Robert Topp 18th

He assumes a chip lead

Haik raises

Durnsford pushes 80,000 wuth K-Q

Haik auto calls QQ

3-5-10-9-J Durnsford doubles up

The table break has produced a complete doozy.....

Rudling and Kimber moved onto table Mahrenholz/Banzi/Spyrou/Kyriacou


Great news for Prested, he avoids the lot at this stage...

Rough chip stacks for the final 17


Roberts 120

Lindsay 190

Prested 380

Haik 90

Durnsford 160

Loeser 380

Spinks 200

Rideout 160



other table


Kimber 150

Wong 80

Mahrenholz 320

De Weert 130

Kyriacou 200

Spyrou 180

Rudling 500

Fratelli 150

Banzi 260


and as I write that Durnsford raises the button, Spinks shoves the big blind, Durnsford makes a heck of a call with 88. Spinks 77

88 holds and Spinks becomes the shortstack with 80,000

Lindsay opens QQ utg

AJ, Haik all in

Spinks calls all in for 18000 NOT 80000 as above with 2-4

Lindsay calls

Queens hold

Jon Spinks out 17th

Greg Haik out 16th

Lindsay up over 300,000

Level 17

blinds up

4000-8000/500

15 left, money jump at 13th

average stack 245,000

David Rudling chip leader ahead of Jon Prested, Manig Loeser, Karl Mahrenholz and Gary Lindsay



Phew. A minute to catch my breath would be good, but its not happening... :D

Kyriacou the player moved across to balance the tables

that is a good move for him

the other table is nightmare tough, in my partially informed opinion

Gogogogo Team Mahrember & to Jonny Prested

Ken Wong open shoves 90,000 or so from the small blind

Karl Mahrenholz snap calls in the big with A4 suited

Wong JJ

A 3-4-Q flop means it hasn't yet gone Wrong for Wong.

K turn, Q river and Wong doubles up

You had two bubble hours...lady git ;)

Hello to Sarah Rudling, David's better half who I gather is following his progress on here as a guest

 :hello:


To Sarah and the other 40 guests. Sign up to the forum and say hello on here.

Its free, its fun and I don't bite.

Praz Banzi knocks out Caroline De Weert 15th

All in pre

Caroline  Ad Qh

Praz  Aspades Jd

board comes  Qs high, and Praz hits four spades to eliminate the vistior from the Netherlands


Praz up to 450,000 or so. Not that he knows what to do with a big stack of course....

go on Jon Prested

Whollyflush ftw!!!

Marco Fratelli out 14th

It all goes in on the turn of a 9-K-5-9 board

Fratelli with QQ has been done by Rudling with KQ


Rudling reasserts his chip lead

Money jump now to £4,590 for 13th up

Come on JP!!!

wayne rideout of Team Sky Poker raises the cut off, Jamie Roberts 3 bets the button

Wayne 4 bet shoves A-Q having raise folded twice before that orbit

Roberts snaps with Aces and flops the case Ace for good measure to knock Wayne Rideout out 13th

Andros Spyrou pushes 9-9

Banzi finds JJ behind calls and flops top set

Banzi up to 600,000 and challenging for the chip lead

Spyrou out 12th

Jamie Roberts opens for for 16,500

Gary Lindsay 41,000

Prested 4 bet shoves with A-J

Roberts passes

Lindsay snaps with AA

Aces hold, Lindsay had 320,000

Prested had 320,000, strangely

So Prested is out 11th and Lindsay has had a remarkable recovery from 4x bb two hours ago to 660,000 now

bubble for the final table

Short stack is Kimber

Hand for Hand here so things have understandably slowed down again

£4590 for 10th

£5510 and up for 9th onwards

Jeff Kimber has 70,000 or so at 4-8k

Chip leaders Rudling, Lindsay, Banzi, Loeser in that order

Mahrenholz, Roberts, Kyriacou, Durnsford and Wong round out the field, in that chip count order

Judges..ie me..v impressed with Loeser today

some investigation reveals he cashed for $50k in the WSOP main last year, 2nd in an EPT London side this year, won a Bulgarian event for over 50k European this year too

A name to watch

Meanwhile Karl and Praz are set to reprise the first ever GUKPT event in Bolton in 2007, when they finished 1st and 2nd

Jamie Roberts being railed by his proud Dad Ben

Chris Kyriacou talking non stop, nothing new there

Durnsford very quiet and understated. Tight and conservative

Lindsay being railed by a girlfriend with bright red hair and the strongest Glasgow accent since Rab C Nesbitt was on telly

Wong is ebullient. A lively character

Rudling polite and consistent. Not seen him around for a while, but was a consistent UK circuit winner in 07 and 08



Tomorrow's final should be awesome, but who will miss out?

Stay tuned

Gary Lindsay won his way into this in Wednesday's £250 live sat. Travelled down especially for that and then a few days in London if he didn't win his seat

Normally an online player on Ladbrokes, no previous live form to speak of.


I will stop pestering his girlfriend for info now

Please can someone stake me a life ;)

blinds up 5-10k/1k as we enter level 18

So, not much news

Kimber and Roberts, one on each table, under 100,000 and sub 10x bb

No flops, push and fold

Presumably waiting for a couple of hands to collide




Gary Lindsay is a celtic fan

By tomorrow I will know his inside leg measurement, Cashpoint PIN number and Shoe size.

goodnight

thanks for following today

Please join me for the final tomorrow

loved the more in-depth analysis of some of the hands, think it proved alot of people wrong that they are super boring.

Cracking updates Tighty :)

praz gotta be close to even money jolly here

price on karl?

Excellent solo update again tighty, fun to read what was going on and remember when I had chips! Me and spinks musta raised 99% of hands in that near 2 hour bubble period yet don't think either of us made a profit, win two uncontested, lose the one we get action on. Ran pair into overpair three times in 20 mins when all the shortstacks were goin mental when the bubble burst, think (hope) I made a good fold of jacks to Rudling's 3b and c-b on a 10-high flop. He showed one queen, said they were both the same, will never know.

Abolsute grind once I moved to praz n karl's table, just managed to shove once a round to stay afloat, hopefully will find a hand in the first couple of orbits tomoro....or outdraw someone.

Tx to the well wishers, gonna be a great final tomoro...hope I have some involvement :)
