Mo Rafique shoves 50,000 with 3-3 and Andrew Psaras calls with A-J

Ace on the turn, 3 on the river doubles Rafique up



This proves to be but a flesh would to Psaras as he takes AKo against Andrew Probyn's QQ, all in pre. Big pot. Upwards of 175,000

Ace the door card.

bobalike Psaras up to around 350,000 and second chip leader

I arrive to see Zippy Aslam bet 15,000 blind on blind on a board of

 7d Tc  2d 8s

Suzanne Gilbert in the big blind all in for 55,000 total

Aslam has a monster think and eventually calls for the majority of his stack


He calls with  6s 8c. A brave but absolutely superb call when Gilbert reveals  Ahrt 9h

She has an over and an up and down to hit, this duly arrives on the  6d river to double her up



the turn:

Andrew Micholson also making progress

Called a raise from Wadey Ashraf in the big blind with K-Q

He checked the river, having called two streets, and Wadey duly obliged with the the third bullet which he also called with Broadway, and was good

Hows my dad doing? is he winning some? :P

Kate Langshaw raises the button to 8,500

The response is the quickest all in you will ever see from Angry Bird in the big blind with 62,500



"They raise my blind, now you raise my blind. No, no more" comes the immediate comment

Kate raises a quizzical smile and looks at Angry Bird

Angry Bird now in full flow

"I limp, they raise, I raise they re-raise. Enough. I all in"

Langshaw is foolish enough to offer the following

"I know you don't want a call"

Angry Bird is almost out of her seat

"I WANT A CALL!" she insists

"You think I would go all in with nothing, its the third hand I have played today. You crazy"


Eventually Kate folds, reluctantly

Angry Brid nods with emphasis and thrusts her cards at the dealer.

As if vindicated, she now seems calmer

next hand Langshaw gets unlucky

She opens  Ahrt Kh in the cut off and thwe short-stack in the big blind shoves for 25,000 more with Ad 6h

 6d 5s 7s 5c 5h later and Langshaw has lost further round

Welcome to blonde

Over on table chip daddies I have been watching an interesting dynamic taking place, where Pete Linton has been extremely quiet by his standards, ahrdly getting involved between the super aggressive Umar Khan, chip leader William Swinscoe and, the other side of the dealer from him, Andreas Kyprianou also with a top 5 stack now


these four players are probably the chip leaders of the 27 left, all sat in a row

and with that post Swinscoe is moved for table balancing to a table of shortstacks, to the right of Paul Romain with 158k, average 180k. blinds 4-8k

Kirit Patel raises to 17,000

Zippy Alsam all in 57,000

Suzanne Gilbert all in 101,000

Patel calls from a 250,000 stack

Aslam 6-6

Gilbert A-K

Patel A-Q


Queen on the river knocks both out

Ed Ireland all in 75,000 on the button

Angry Bird most distraught at having to pass A-7 for her stack in the big blind

small blind versus big blind

small blind William Swinscoe bets 20,000 into a 110,000 pot on the river of

 2c Qd 9c 4h Qs

Paul Romain has, I gather, called a raise pre, and flop, and turn

He reluctantly calls, getting 5.5-1

Swinscoe shows  9h 7s which is good

This leaves Romain short


Admiring noises from the table about extracting so much value, for the chip leader

Umar Khan out 22nd

Down to under 100k shoved A-6

Pete Linton called with Pocket Nines, and held hitting a Nine on the river for good measure

and we are on a break

21 left

blinds 6-12k when they come back

average 222,000

William Swinscoe with 670,000 the chip leader ahead of Andreas Kyrianou, Andrew Psaras and Kirit Patel

Knocked her out of an event at Luton a couple of weeks back, she was totally fumming as it was a come from behind victory

Good luck to bobalike   sorry i didnt mention in my earlier post, met him yesterday and he is a top man

First hand back is quite fun

Andreas Kyprianou raises to 24,000 UTG

Smart dressed Anon calls in the cut off

Swinscoe calls in the small blind

Paul Romain almost shoves in the big blind, thinks better of it

flop  8s 6d 3d

Swinscoe leads for 40,000

Kyprianou calls

Anon folds

turn  2c

Swinscoe 50,000

Kyprianou makes an extraordinary/good fold with  Qh Qs

Swinscoes shows  5d 4d


Kyprianou, a volatile Londoner, goes on tilt

"You have no idea man" to Swinscoe

"You should never been in the hand" to Anon

"You call my raise with that and hit the nut straight" back to Swinscoe


Swinscoe 750,000 and running well.

gl to Kirit, get it won  :)up

Greek Jack out 21st

Shoved 100,000 UTG with A-10o

Andreas Kyriacou finds A-K next to act and knocks him out on 5-Q-Q-8-J

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


Paul Romain doubles up, KQ in the bb vs Swinscoe's Q-J in the small blind

Only a flesh wound for William though, as Romain is now up to 120,000

Update and pic for pete 'absolutely bless me' linton pls

Kate Langshaw 30,000 pre, called by Francis Jones in position

flop  Js 6c Td

Langshaw checks

Jones 35,000

Langshaw c-raises all in, just covered by Jones

Jones a long think, presumably puts Kate on the draw, and calls with  7h 7d

Langshaw though  Ahrt Ac

She holds and doubles to over 300,000

Linton has shoved a couple of times an orbit for an hour

Approx 300,000 and very much in "the zone", concentrating/sensible head on

Francis Jones out 20th, Kate Langshaw raises  Ahrt Jh, and flops  Jd which is good enough against Jones low pocket pair, calling all in pre

With the exit of Richard Horton, which I missed, we are down to 2 nine handed tables

Money jump to £959 too

Kyprianou doubles

Linton down under 100,000

Romain out 18th

Pic of Kyprianou pls

He's a local to Leicester Gala. I know he won't mind me saying he can be very hot headed and tilt off when he loses a hand

Andrew Nicholson shoves 120,000 at 8-16k with A-7

Andrew Psaras in the small blind calls with A-J

Andreas Kyprianou is from North London, big bluff club territory with the likes of Irfan Hasan


This is Kyprianou

11 left and for the first time in three days we have new chip leaders


All with 650-750k Kate Langshaw, Andrew Psaras, Andreas Kyprianou

William Swinscoe 550,000.

Not much to report on Swinsoce except he has limp-called away a portion of his stack


Current shortstacks are Ali Ahmed, who sometimes misses two orbits a time six handed away from  the table. odd with a 300k stack now at 10-20k and Andreas Kyriacou

One way poker/Bankroll supply badges on

Not Encore today

Gogogo celticalike.

Still 11 left


The major movement is we now have a clear chip leader in Andrew "bob" Alike Psaras with 900,000

Swinscoe min raises pre with Jacks

Psaras calls in the big with 4-4

Flop Q high is checked

4 on the turn

Psaras c-raises 55,000 to 110,000

Called

A on the river

Psaras leads, Swinscoe folds


Swinscoe down to 290,000

How many left in?

Ali Ahmed the short-stack finds  6c 7c and shoves

Andreas Kyriacou 10-10 in the big blind calls and knocks him out in 11th


True to his nickname, Ali goes out with "a bag of bollocks"

Here we go then, the final table bubble.................

Andrew Psaras limps the small blind unopened

Kate Langshaw 64,000 in the big blind

Psaras limp re-raise to 160,000

Looks like a very tough forld for Kate who eventually says

"I can't see you doing that with worse than this" and folds

Psaras the first player over 1m

Andreas Kyprianou 60,000 on the button

Michael Darrall shove 260,000 in the small blind

Kyprianou not happy, but also not a huge fan of folding on the evidence of today. Calls

Kyprianou  Qh Jh

Darrall  Ahrt 6s

Darrell holds as both missed, he doubles up

blind on blind William Swinscoe shoves K-J into Scott Phillips

Phillips finds A-Q, calls

Paul wilson  4 me seem him regular at gkupt festivals nice chap

In early skirmishes

Kate Langshaw opens to 65,000 and Michael Darrell calls

Langshaw opens, Kyriacou all in in the big blind

Langshaw has to pass, and is now one of the shorter stacks

Celticalike ftw

brill updates as usual thanks tighty. Pity i couldnt go a little further but hey ho. Amazed to see michael darrel there tbh as he was doing some very strange things (pokerwise that is) yesterday. gems such as 3 bet folding with half his stack in the middle and limping in EP with 35os out of a 10bb stack (no plan other than checking till he hit wheel on river then min betting so that muggins here can pay him off with third pr) anyway gl to all finalists

Still here

Haven't seen a flop since I last reported


Andrew psaras, Paul Wilson and Michael Darrall the chipleaders with 700-900k each

Scott Phillips shoving at least once an orbit

Kyriacou active but over-bet raising means he will only get action if he is losing lol


blinds 15-30k for another 12 minutes, average 585k. No stack in mortal danger, so its attritional stuff

yeah great work tighty,
average age a little on the high side for this one no?
 ;popcorn;

the "new" bad boy of poker is also ageist 

shame on you ;)

andy dont like to play flops

gl to him tho and bobalike...

Gogo bobalike and Kate!

gl to Kirit pokers Mr Consistency. gogogo

wanna take it outside sunshine?

hell no, i'm too old for gangsta brawls :D

Kirit Patel 120,000 at 20-40k

Paul Wilson all in 700k

Patel passes 10-10 for his stack




two suggestions already mooted

one of the big stacks "anyone interested in a chip count chop?"

from the shortest stack "if we chop it now everyone would get third" (£10k)


Both given short shrift at this stage by a couple at the table

bader than bad!

weeeeeeee

So glad I hadn't taken a sip of my beer reading that exchange!   rotflmfao

is it still 8 handed?

8 handed 10k each?

£82k still to play for Paul


Kate Langshaw has become a shoving machine, which on a quite passive table has paid dividends

3 times uncalled picking up 90k a time


fourth shove under the gun with AJ for 400k

Michael Darrall finds a hand to call

AJ, chop chop, audible groans from a few at the table!

Darren Fuller shoves A-5 for 250,000

Kirit Patel re-shoves

QQ

A on the flop doubles Fuller up

must be them old biddies that thewy hates so much

Scott Phillips shoves KJ for 300k

Michael Darrall in the big blind finds Aces

board K...J ("oooooooooooooh")...A ("aaahhhhhhhh")


Scott Phillips is out 8th winning £2,398

Gl to Kate - big score been a long time coming.

Chip counts

Darrall 1.5m
Fuller 800k
Kyriacou 750k
Wilson 700k
Psaras 600k
Langshaw 475k

£76,000 plus still to play for

just would be shocked that the big stacks would deal so flatly

Board reads

 9c 2s 4s Kd 5d

only 100k in the pot blind on blind Darrall and Fuller

Darrall checks, Fuller bets 150k

Darrell check raises to 550k

Fuller is perplexed, enquires of Darrall "really?"

After contemplation moves all in

Darrall passes despite it being only a small amount extra to call



My sources tell me Mr Darrall is a regular at the Rose and Thistle pub game in Reading, and TCs Maidenhead/Maxims Reading the local poker club/casino games


Nickname is  "King of the Pixies"


Now that's added value reporting

Andrew Psaras in the small blind with 500,000

Psaras completes with  Qh Th

Kyriacou checks his option

Good work Tighty! Award for funniest post in thread, goes to George for giving birth to the nickname 'angry bird'. Top marks.

N1 Andy, well deserved

Thx mate. I am secretly praying I'm not on her table any time soon. She might not appreciate her nick name.

[ ] she will read your comments
[ ] she will understand them
[ ] she knows how to use a computer

Wpwp Vinnyalike

At least any vitriol from her regarding her nickname will mean you can say

"I rest my case"

top work on the updates Tighty

LOL.

Well done Kate & Bobalike!

That the most relieved you've been to get a bluff thru ?

WP Tighty, congrats all.

Lol@pho

Thanks for the support. Had a great couple of days of poker. Managed to grind my way back from 3k on day 1. So overall happy with the cash. Although just pissed off that starting the final table with over 1 mil I couldn't capitalise on the fold or push poker.

Well done Kate as she was easily the best opponent by far which made my 3 bet bluff blind on blind ever so sweet.

Thanks for all the support guys and gals and great stuff from blonde updates.

Bobalike, pleasure playing with you today, we actually had a really good enjoyable table.

Nearly tilted off after losing that 600k pot with JJ vs A8 early on the final but managed to keep it together.

See you all at the next one.

P.S Tighty, I haven't logged in for a while as I couldn't remember password. Any chance of changing my name back to Kaibobble plz :D tyty

Very well done Kate, chuffed to pieces for you. Lovely bit of lolly to play with xxxx

Also awesome to meet fellow countryman bobalike, you are a true gent wpwp.

Also I cant pissing believe uncle Andy won this!!! He isn't my real uncle but he is my Uncle Kim's brother in law. Legend, and i'm sure Gala Leicester regulars will all be raising there glasses to his great result too. Bravo.

A final with 3 Andy's (I know, imaginative lot we are), all Cypriots and a lovely little lady too.

For a nation of complete and utter fish, the Cypriots done good! Wp guys

lol well said!

Lol, I suppose I am I fisherman.

For you non Greeks, Psaras = Fisherman

P.s Chilli it was a pleasure meeting you too.

Great updates as usual Tighty & so pleased for Kate!

had 88....villain had taken similar betting line with bottom pair and AK when missed before - but nevertheless in hindsight... :-(

for the record Paul I refused to deal even when short stacked

^^^^^^
wish I'd have seen this yesterday, having never played against/seen Michael Darrel previously. He was a nightmare to play against, and that's not a compliment.
