Like what the title sayed, not a Live Update, but I will try & give the occasional Update from the Sky Poker UKPC HIGH ROLLER, which got under way at DTD 15 minutes ago. (£3,000 entry, £150,000 Guarantee).

Any questions, fire away, but don't expect Tighty style wordyness, I come from kickapoo.  

WTF is a tribuite ?

hahahahahaha WP.

It's like a thuing of beauity.

Gl picken. Needs 50 right? Think it will be close?

20 entrants so far, needing 50, but it has re-entries. Won't be far off, imo.

Currently recognizable (to me) are......

John Duthie

Ian Simpson

Taff

Martin Frey

Wadey

Neil Strike (joesman1 from Next Door)

Mr Ambo is on his way.

Nobody from a town called Kickapoo appears to be playing.

Yeah, close. Made 78 last year, but 50 would be nice. It has re-entries.

Mr Picken is indulging? Happy days, a face - or at least a mop of unruly hair - I'll recognize.

Add "Raggy" to the list.

First blood to Mr Duthie, who takes a 30,000 pot, he bet (& got called) every street.

Board was.....

 6h 7c 9h Ks Th

Mr D showed.....

 8d 9d

Oppo said he had 2 pair.


Here's John in a crucial titfer.

(http://media.cardplayer.com/assets/players/000/003/852/profile/original_RS16183_4145_John_Duthie_UKIPT_1_Manchester.jpg)

28 now, including......

Chris Brammer

Steve Warburton. (I think - nice hair, like a choir boy, sort of Toby Lewis style?).

oioi, the boys have arrived.

Currently cogitating & ruminating around the Cash Desk & deciding whether to flick it in are....


Cambridge Alex

Keith Johnson

Stato


Mitch Johnson, who, on Sunday evening, was the first propa player I have ever successfully double-barreled (turn bet was around £300 I think, gulp) with the bare ace in a 4/5/6 PLO Cash Game, is apparently too ashamed to show his face. Quite right too. I own. My arse was twitching something shocking, fair to add.

Late arrivals include.....

Mr Adam Picken (complete with hair)

Sharky (complete with shark bite)

Stato, Alex & Co have also joined the frey.


36 now.

Some chuntering is emenating from Wadey, after his Aces got busted by 6-8 for on this run out......


 Ad 3c 5c 9h 7d

Think that cost him about a third of his stack.

Best dressed so far, Mr Updater Tributiser?

Any comment from Mr Ambo on the rumour I read last night on blonde of a certain triple BPA winner being a contestant on this autumn's Strictly? I read it on this forum so it must be true. Granted, I might have written it and made it up entirely, but even still, no smoke without fire...

Best dressed has to be - well hang on, let me try & get a photo.

Mr Ambo has yet to arrive - train delayed, one assumes. We sat with Miss C, aka "The Queen Mother" last night, but I was not party to any whisperings.

Right ho.

I'm sure you'll keep us all updated apprised of developments.

Now THAT is a red tracky. Hat & everything.

Shameless spamming but got rooms at Park Plaza, Jurys Inn and the Hilton tonight for those waiting to spin up a stack before booking... I remember last High Roller we had about ten of them wanting rooms at midnight and not much available - not back at DTD until Thursday but if anyone needs a room, get me on any of the communication methods available :-)

Good luck to all...

38 & motoring.

Latest arrival is that petite & pretty young Lady - Korean, I think? - who is always most inventively dressed it most pleasing outfits.

Pretty sure her name includes two hyphens & includes at least one "c".

You don't get that detail from Tighty.

You would from Woodsey...

Few others I've eventually recognized.

Ben Warrington

Jeremy Nock (won the first UKPC High ro?)

Rhys Jones

Ben Dobson

Andy Bacon

Robert Boon

Late arrivals include.....

Neil Channing, aka Mr Ambo.

Stuart Fox.

39 entrants (excluding those two), 3 players have busted (including Wadey & Mr Duthie), &, so far as I can eee, one re-entry so far.  

Elvis is in the building.

We were on the same 'plane to Vegas one year, & he did his one word Elvis impression 793 times during the flight. Ah-hah.

Tikay

Pls don't neglect TfT

BTW I sent you a PM Monday.  I know you are busy...

Oops, so you did, apols. Very kind of you, thank you.

It was Sunday actually, I now see.

By way of mitigation, I never got home from DTD until 0500 Monday morning, felt like poo, & then I had a puncture which I had to go get fixed, a few hours kip then up to the British Poker Awards last night. I've obviously spent all day today polishing my trophies.

Think I'll steer clear of TfT tonight. Not Fred's best day ever, all things considered.

I was going to PM you over the weekend, but saw that you had the Sky thing on, so thought I'd leave it until you're home and messing about with your allotment again ;)

I'm not due up the allotment until the weekend after next, Friday 6th March to be precise, around 8.30pm.


(http://www.mydoorsign.com/img/lg/S/do-not-disturb-sign-se-2440_showcase-burrev.png)

42 + 3 re-entries now, so it can't be worse than 5 entries shy of the Guarantee. Just the £15,000.

I haven't pm'd you and have no intention of.

Sky poker clearly aren't paying well these days, Tikay looking not as respectable as the weekend. Sporting a stripey jumper, and a red scarf. Must have nicked it from CambridgeAlex

Good, that'll save me not replying.

Any chance of an update informed brief of recent poker events, please?

Or have they chopped it already?

Eh?

This is just a tribuite tribute.

Here's a few approximations.

Neil Strike 25,000

Keith Johnson 45,000

Stato 50,000

Alex Goulder 72,173

Neil Channing 45,000

John Duthie (2nd bullet) 100,000

Chris Brammer 40,000

Ben Dobson (2nd bullet) 35,000

Taff 80,000

Raggy 80,000

Anthony Nicholls 20,000

Stu Fox 25,000

Steve Warburton (backed Augero to score Any Time @2/1) 75,000.

Adam Picken 40,000

Ian Simpson (2nd bullet) 50,000



Currently 43 uniques + 6 re-entries, of which 36 remain present & correct.

Ave stack 68,000

Blinds 500-1,000/100. 

There, easy game this. 

The "Best Turned Out" award goes to Steve Warburton.

That's why you're on Stelling money, tikay. All wheat, no chaff.

Keith Johnson busted moments before the end of the last level for late-regging, his.....

 Ahrt Kh

...being no match for.....

 Ad Ac

The flop gave reasonable grounds for optimism......

 Qh 3h Tc

....but then blanked.

He has re-entered, bringing the number to, if the plassy is accurate, exactly 50.

Chris Brammer, unforch, also just busted, & appears to have left the scene of the crime.

8 minutes remain for re-entries or Late Regs, but assuming no more customers choose to invest £3,000, the final numbers are....

43 uniques + 8 re-entries = 51

The Guarantee is therefore officially smashed.

nice, congrats rob

thanks for the updates ticket

Alex Goulder moves north of 100,000 after the button shoved all-in for not much with Q-10, & Alex quickly called with A-J. Not even a pair, incred.

Cmbolas, who won the WPT here at the back end of last year knocked out John Dthie on the final table bubble

Duthie raised with 6h 3h and flopped 6-10-K two hearts against Cmbolas in the big blind

(second hand from the dealer), Duthie bet the streets and was called by a rivered set of sevens

Alex Goulder 225,000 won a pot off Andy Bacon to double (? close to it) just as the bubble was breaking on the otherl table

as you will see above, 5 paid only and a lovely £10,000 bubble on the way

Steve Warburton out 9th, Taffy Bacon turned a straight with Q-9 against a short-stacked small pair

Stuart Fox has just shoved all in on the turn of A-10-4-J two clubs and Bacon has folded 4-5cc, unshown but spoken

Johnson looks to be the short-stack

Gomez, Bacon and Cimbolas the chip leaders


here is the final in action

Decent of sky to get compo from last of the summer wine to present the trophy.

Thanks for the updates.

Cheers Tighty, much appreciated!




:D

Top class updates as usual Tighty thanks

Yo, I would lose the beard! Makes you look like a hobo! Maybe consider some Thai eyebrow threading and tint?? If you wearing brown shoes or any kind of sandal change them! Finally, if you swap the errr burgundy jacket for navy blue we have a dece colour combo that doesn't make us look like a coach driver. Great updates! Oh and when you want money??

I thought the ron burgundy jacket was more Sky sports presenter chav chic circa 1995, but the driver motif works equally well. Old fella looks better irl tbf

You should see me with my clothes off.
