Title: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 01:48:39 PM OK, we have started a new thread for this, & we will do a little mini-review before the fun & games begin at 3pm. Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 02:17:51 PM Hmm, I just finished the Preview of today's play, quite pleased with it, "painted little pictures" of the main players, then lost the ****** lot.... OK, start again. Sigh...... Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: Ironside on April 10, 2005, 02:28:29 PM sack him
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: Foxy on April 10, 2005, 02:31:54 PM ;) hey tikay im back in brum, good luck to Thewy, and Ben Grundy who I was on the same table with last night he is a very good player and made some great bluffs and showed them checky git ;D gl boys ;)
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 02:37:50 PM Well our Chip Leader is a guy called Dave Shallow. Not a familiar face on the circuit, but makes a good living playing online, & is a genuine contender. He played the WSOP last year, but his stock in trade is internet play. Got a dream double up yesterday with AK v AQ, very nice!
Then we have William Hill's Julian Thew, who don't need much by way of introduction. We are in the same hotel (but not room, he snores for England...) - we drove down together in fact - & we had a good chat this morning about how he intends to play today. He has been, by his standards, quiet since January, when he cleared 50k+ at Luton & Copenhagen. He has made a few tinsy winsy changes to his game to improve it - heaven help the rest of us - and is VERY focused. He ain't interested in second, either, he's here to win this thing. Ben Grundy sat fairly quietly most of yesterday, then doubled up late via AK v KQ, now THATS form, eh? AK v KQ, how nice is that? So he is in great shape now, but I fancy he won't be "grinding" today, as he was forced to do in Monte Carlo. When Ben has chips, he "plays", so look out for a strong showing from the diminutive Ben. And Mick "The Clock" Cook. Mick can give the impression at the table that he is stand-offish, but that's not the case at all. He just sits there, hardly says a word, "economical with words", seems bored in fact, but his eyes are everywhere, & not much goes off that he don't spot. He was cruising along yesterday with about 10k, just solid, sensible play, when he suddenly trebled up. I had bluffed off most of my stack, & was down to the felt with 2k, but scrabbled back to 5k, when I got a bit over-optimistic with 5-5. Geezer behind me comes in with A-9, then Micky joins the party with KK. You just can't get these guys to lay down KK, can you, wassamatter with them? The A did fall, but Micky hit his set, bingo, treble up.So Micky then settled back into watching & waiting. He has never slow-rolled or given a rubdown in his life, & is a steely old pro. He has more experience than all the rest put together, & he'll need to get unlucky not to go close today. He has won oodles of big comps, though he's probably more of an Omaha man than Hold 'Em, but watch out for Mick today. More soon...... Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: Irishdenis on April 10, 2005, 02:39:42 PM Hi mate....pass my good wishes to Julian for me please. What a great play he made last night with 5.6.... It was nearly as good as the J2.....
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 02:45:00 PM Rokesh Chablani is an interesting character. He has 22k. He's Operations Manager for VC Poker - wow, he'd LOVe to win the Coral Comp, eh?! Nice guy, too, introduced himself to me this morning, & is a good buddy of Jon Shoreman who, I understand, suggested Rokesh come & say Hi to me. Lovely guy, but I don't know anything about his game. Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 02:52:38 PM Irish Denis. It was 6-4, not 6-5, that Thewy made his play with yesterday. And it was Q-2, not J-2, that he got so lucky against me with in the cash game. You seem to have a very poor grasp of the game Denis - what on earth would Julian be doing in the pot with 6-5 or J-2? Any more of this & you'll be yellow-carded. Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 03:00:28 PM Play is due to start in 5 mins, & all the players are nervously pacing around, but nobody is sat down yet. The chips are all stacked on the two tables. I will try & see what the new table draw is in a bit. OK, the "take your seats" call has just been made..... Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: simonow on April 10, 2005, 03:06:16 PM hi tony give my regards to jules tell to kick ass wish him all the best for today see you guys in luton
simon nowab Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: Irishdenis on April 10, 2005, 03:07:53 PM You see Tikay you have failed to notice my recovery method. When you experience situations of such magnitude sometimes the only cure is to erase it from your memory. I seem to be able to do this by making small changes to the cards each time I think of them. Eventually I will have a vision of you with AA and that rogue Julian getting very lucky..(as opposed to outplaying you)....You on the other hand seem to be one of the unlucky ones. With your perfect memory you will remain traumatised for life. The future is not good and you could some day end up wearing one of those nice back to front jackets, surrounded by Jack the ripper types.
Now say after me "I shall not play 10.2...J.2...Q.2 or any other combination again. Denis ??? Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 03:10:35 PM Wow, man out first hand! Short stacked Mike (Tse?) got it in with 55 & was done over by A-9. Fancy moving in with 55, eh? (Ahem....).
They have announced that everyone who came back today (well, 11th to 20th) will get 200, taken off the top & second prize I believe. Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: kpnuts on April 10, 2005, 03:17:09 PM Hi Tikay, please wish Dave 'Dubai Millennium' Shallow and that young Mancunian Rob 'King Of Filth' Sherwood all the very best from their fellow Betfairer kpnuts :D
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 03:17:56 PM The table draw?
Of the 4 deep stacks, three have ended up on one table. Mick Cook, Ben Grundy, & Dave Swallow are all eyeing each other warily. The other one has drawn the table full of Billy Low Stacks. That Thewy is soooo lucky, eh? I pray for those poor Low Stacks if Yoyo starts ducking & diving. He promised me he would sit quiet for the first few hours today. He just got caught nicking & had to let his hand go after trying to steal it with a 10k bet. Some notice he takes of MY advice, eh? Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 03:29:03 PM Another man gone, Paul Murrell. Paul had 4-4, Mick Cook had AA. Dave Shallow lost some 25k when his AJ was outpipped by Mick Dunleavy's AQ. Dunleavy doubled up. Thewy down to 40k, he just caught a guy at it, Matey Boy had 3-7 & moved in, Thewy read him for weak & called with A-J, first card 3...... Ben Grundy just lost a "race" with JJ v AK & has taken a hit too. So of the 4 chip leaders, 3 have run into strong head winds, whilst Micky Cook is sailing serenely onwards with a following wind. Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 03:33:27 PM Carnage here. Stuart Forsyth is OUT, his QJ not improving against A-8. And James Browning took a big hit when his AK failed to hit against QQ, in fact the PP hit a set. Blinds are now 1,500-3,000, & the crisis is deepening for the low stacks. Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: divaflava on April 10, 2005, 03:40:37 PM howay dubai. can't believe filth is still in kp, can we claim bennyboi as one of ours?
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: GingerD on April 10, 2005, 03:43:00 PM Why, whats wrong with Filth? :P
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: kpnuts on April 10, 2005, 03:46:21 PM Indeed we can, Diva... looks like a 1-2-3 for the Betfair boys ;)
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: divaflava on April 10, 2005, 03:48:12 PM there's a time and a place to discuss filth, not sure this is it
his plan was to attack early wasn't it, obviously paid off. Bet he's sitting quiet as a mouse at the moment tho' ;) Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 03:51:54 PM All going wrong for the deep stacks. Dave Swallow loses another pot with 99 against KK held by Cemal "Jimmy" Alp.
Ben Grundy, Milky Bar Kid, has been moved to Thewy's table. Tom Sambrook is making good headway, he is up to about 40k. I think he's the "Poker Night Live" geezer. And poor Rokesh is out, he had TT v A-5, & the A-5 merchant hit a house. Rolandinho is assisting blonde with the updates, thanks fella, very much appreciated. Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: kpnuts on April 10, 2005, 03:54:31 PM Two Shallows never made a summer ;)
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: divaflava on April 10, 2005, 03:56:56 PM hope he's not gone off in the deep end (boom boom), must still have 40-50k tho, tikay?
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 04:00:20 PM Wow, SENSATION here, Julian Thew is OUT!
He had AK v TT, first card K, but then it all went wrong, board came K-Q-J-9-x. So the overnight favourite is on his way home. Poor lad looks gutted, but ever the gent at the table, he shook the winner's hand, "nice hand Sir" & off he went. The victor was Hugh Kirtin. Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: Mrs C on April 10, 2005, 04:10:44 PM Tony Jarman just moved all in for 16K with QJ of hearts.
Mick Dubleavy called. The flop came K,K,10, 7, 4 Putting Tony out of the comp. Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: KeeNeeOw on April 10, 2005, 04:36:45 PM Go on the Betfair Boys - good luck to you all.
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: String on April 10, 2005, 04:38:09 PM Excellent reporting guys,
Any recent news...... How many left, Chip leaders etc?? Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 04:42:49 PM Sorry, slight tech probs here, but back now. Chip counts, how many left in a mo, but first.... Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: Irishdenis on April 10, 2005, 04:44:25 PM Tony can you tell me what the play was on Julian's hand. Pre flop I assume it all went in. Otherwise how could 10 10 call with that flop.
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 04:44:55 PM Overnight Chip Leader Dave Swallow is OUT.
So that's both the overnight leaders gone, & they were well clear of the field. Sensational stuff, this is proving to be a real afternoon of upsets..... Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 04:48:20 PM Denis, Yes, it all went in before the flop. Thewy wondered afterwards if it may have been better to just call the 10k R pre-flop then move in post flop, but easy to be wise afterwards.... But the earlier AJ v 7-3 was a jaw-dropper. Thewy R'd 6k in the SB with A-J, the BB only had 13k & moved in, he must have known Thewy could not pass for another 7k. On their backs, Thewy AJ, Matey Boy 7-3. Work THAT one out! Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: CelticTiger on April 10, 2005, 04:49:08 PM chip count pls
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: boro_fc on April 10, 2005, 04:51:16 PM Shocking ul dubai.......up tto filth to bring it home for betfair crowd now gl

[attachment deleted by admin] Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: divaflava on April 10, 2005, 05:35:13 PM erm, looks remarkably similar to the 'departed chip leader' ?
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 05:37:34 PM OK, OK, you sussed out we don't know how to use our new toy........... But we WILL get a pic of Mick soon........and we'll call him Dave, just to level thngs up..... Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: divaflava on April 10, 2005, 05:38:59 PM lol ;D
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 05:40:01 PM See, we knew EXACTLY what we were doing. Mick really does do good impressions eh? Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: El Oz on April 10, 2005, 05:42:47 PM Hi Tikay. Any news on the Milkybarkid from Norwich ?? Does he know that Norwich wacked his team - Man Utd - 2 - 0 yesterday eve ? MBK was in fact born in York, so he could be the Yorkiebarkid !!!
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: El Oz on April 10, 2005, 05:45:07 PM Hey Tikay. How about a picture of Ben ??
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 05:47:49 PM A pic of Ben? Try page 3 of this update........Unless we got him mixed up too, but that's unlikely, Ben is one of kind! Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 05:49:01 PM And here's departed Chip Leader Dave Swallow doing his equally good impression of Mick Dunleavy....... [attachment deleted by admin] Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: RobS on April 10, 2005, 05:49:45 PM Thanks for the support on here. There have been a lot of outdraws today. I was on the wrong end with my AK no good against AJ, and of course my exit hand Tikay has mentioned. However, that pales into insignificance against the two overnight chipleaders, who couldn't make a hand stand up for love nor money.
Got to say it was a pleasure to sit next to Julian Thew for most of last night, tremendous player and one of the real good guys at the table. His call against Koresh in a huge pot that Tikay detailed last night was absolute class. Rob Sherwood Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: El Oz on April 10, 2005, 05:51:21 PM Sorry Tikay - didn't recognise my own son !! Must be due to the red eyes. Is that what Poker does to him ?? How's he getting on ?
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: Colchester Kev on April 10, 2005, 05:52:41 PM Tikay, never mind a pic of milkybar kid .... get us what we all want ..... a pic of Mrs C ;)
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 05:53:15 PM Spot on Rob, & it was lovely to meet you this afternoon & put a face to the name. Let's hope next time we feature you it will be on a Final Table. You gotta feel for Dave Swallow & Julian Thew, but they both have the game to bounce back quickly, & I know Julian will be at Luton next wek on a recovery mission.
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 05:55:55 PM Jeez,the blinds are a whopping 4.5k-9k,thats about 8 Big Blinds based on an average stack! Ben Grundy remains in good shape, but if his don't recognize him, we DO have a problem. Explain please El Oz! Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 06:01:24 PM There you go Kev, Beauty & The Beast. I took it as a given that you really wanted a pic of me.......

Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 06:21:38 PM James Browning? Going nicely. He is in Seat 1, nice & quiet, enough chips, just waiting for his moment..... The Latif you refer to - is that Maniac Latif, from Newcastle? Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 06:24:08 PM Management have decided to delay the buffet planned for 6pm & play the comp through to the finish. With these blinds, what you reckon, 8pm, 8.30? 10 mins left at 4.5k-9k, then 6k-12k. All gone a bit quiet now, but I fancy it will all go off shortly..... Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: riverdave on April 10, 2005, 06:24:26 PM Good luck to everyone left in. I'm predicting a Milkybarkid, Mick "The Clock" 1/2.
I'm currently cruising along in this Hills added $50k tournament but i'll check back later. See you all in Luton next week. Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 06:25:35 PM And so it proved! THREE players all-in, Mick Cook has AA against Mick Dunleavy & Karl! An A turns, & that's TWO players busted out, Mick Dunleavy & Karl.

ta Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 06:26:35 PM Good read Dave, Mick Cook is BIG chip leader now with 180k. Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: Gamblor21 on April 10, 2005, 06:26:50 PM Mr Latif from teesside!
Yes James has been described as him once or twice in the omaha cash games... once or twice! Were all raising maniacs up north TIKAY thats why you come up for the hundred pound comps... see you in luton if your there i'm going to win one at this festival! well they are running paper rock scissors stone this time are'nt they! Tell James Vienna is paying off... Ian Bradley Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 06:30:17 PM Now Mats Gravisan busts out, James Browning busts him.
Neither had much of a hand, 9-5 v T-7 - two MONSTERS! James, with the bigger (??) hand actually caught his straight, so 6 left now, & the cream rising to the top...... Six left, & the pain increases for the short stacks with a blinds increase in 5 mins. Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 06:32:41 PM See you in the Final at Luton then Ian....!
And yes, I love the Newcastle 100 monthly jobbie, sadly I missed it this month. but I'll be back next month. Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: Gamblor21 on April 10, 2005, 06:35:06 PM yeah i won it this month!
I'll challenge you heads up to paper rock scissors! James played a hand without a n ace in it? He is more and more like latif! ha ha Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 06:37:26 PM The momentum is swaying every which way. The chips currently seeem to reside with Mick Cook, James Browning & Cemal Alp. Ben has reached he "slider" stage - moving in with any A.
They are on a short break now, just 5 mins, so let's see if we can get some chip counts. Ben tells me he has 70k. Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: riverdave on April 10, 2005, 06:38:24 PM I won't have anything bad said about my old mate Latiff everytime i venture near the seaside he doubles me up. ;)
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: boro_fc on April 10, 2005, 06:40:05 PM which casino in newcastle is that tikay?.. never been but not far from me
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 06:42:23 PM Right, here we go......
Tom Sambrook 53k Ben Grundy 70k Hugh Kirtin 70k James Browning 124k Cemal Alp 136k Mick "The Clock" Cook 233.5k And a reminder that Blinds are now 6k-12k for next 45 minutes. Will it last that long? Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: Gamblor21 on April 10, 2005, 06:43:41 PM Stanleys in newcastle you play in teesside?
Whats ur name?? Latif likes doubling up his friends especially when a cash game is starting! lol Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: Irishdenis on April 10, 2005, 06:44:28 PM I assume you will strut your stuff in the 50 at gutshot tonight Tikay.
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 06:44:58 PM Which Casino in Newcastle? Stanley's, first Tuesday of every month, 100 rebuyfest. Terrific bunch of maniacs & at it merchants.
And Riverdave Penly v Latif? That'd be real 7-3 v 8-2 stuff, both of them only need a bag of spanners to go to war with. Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: Foxy on April 10, 2005, 06:46:27 PM Hard lines Thewy, Ben grundy was impresive last night and I pick milky bar kid to win :o
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 06:51:19 PM Maybe Denis.
Derek, one of the Partners in Gushot, says he has entered me for tonight's comp TWICE - says I'll still not have any chance. What's all that about, eh? Is there any need for this constant haranguing? I guess it's the jealousy factor, sort of like David Beckham. Get to the top,the very pinnacle of one's profession, & the wannabes start knocking you..... Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: boro_fc on April 10, 2005, 06:51:59 PM cheers m8 thats the one i've been too, only once tho i am going wednesday and thursday this week its only low stuff i think.
have fond memories as i won the time i went (well shared 3 ways) :) Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: riverdave on April 10, 2005, 06:52:27 PM Tikay you must mean my heads up strategy. You know i only play the aces. ;) Just doubled up to 14k on Hills with them!!
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: sixpac on April 10, 2005, 06:56:17 PM Tikay you must mean my heads up strategy. You know i only play the aces. ;) Just doubled up to 14k on Hills with them!! whats you're name on hills dave Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 06:57:56 PM No Riverdave, you are getting confused. Heads-Up is TWO players.
When you R'd on my BB in Deauville, I seem to recall you had J-8.........That was a FULL table....... Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 06:59:01 PM Right, they have restarted.
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: riverdave on April 10, 2005, 07:01:21 PM Tikay you must mean my heads up strategy. You know i only play the aces. ;) Just doubled up to 14k on Hills with them!! whats you're name on hills dave I'm "Bokked" on Hills at the moment. Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 07:01:36 PM Tom Sambrook doubles up with AJ v Cemal ALP'S A6, & catches his J for good measure.
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 07:03:02 PM It seems to be "any A will do" time. Guess they been coached by Irish Denis & Riverdave. Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: riverdave on April 10, 2005, 07:04:26 PM No Riverdave, you are getting confused. Heads-Up is TWO players. When you R'd on my BB in Deauville, I seem to recall you had J-8.........That was a FULL table....... J8 sooooooooted and i raised in early possition. What's wrong with that? ;D Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: stewart on April 10, 2005, 07:06:03 PM well im back in sunny old manchester now, after by dismal performance down there, in which i trapped myself out of the tourneyment ? what a mug lol, one thing i was happy about was outlasting alot of players without ever getting over 10k in chips to finish 26th respectfully
but had to sit with julain on my table all night and he was chip leader after 30mins lol nice reporting tikay, doing a good job as allways how is rakesh the vc host doing btw? (and i was the guy in the vc top dont think we met ?) cheers stu Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 07:07:46 PM James Browning & Hugh Kirtin just got together with AK suited v A6.
Board included KQTJx, so that's a split pot. But this is doomed to end soon, it's all-in or nothing time. Mick Cook, meanwhile, with his chip lead, is sitting & watching these guys cut each other's throats, dreaming of that lovely ladder............ Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 07:10:16 PM Thanks Stu. I am sorry to say that Rakesh busted out before the Final, but a great effort by the lad, who is a great guy, lovely manners, & a very impressive individual. Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: webshadow on April 10, 2005, 07:11:21 PM great reporting tikay, I was there yesterday (finished 21st *sobs*) great setup by all concerned esp the gutshot club! Mick McIver
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: Colchester Kev on April 10, 2005, 07:12:59 PM "dreaming of that lovely ladder" is that the trophy ??? step or extending ??? ;)
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 07:13:17 PM Thanks Mick, & I thought you were going to win it at one stage!
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: webshadow on April 10, 2005, 07:14:52 PM thanks tikay... i was hoping ... never recovered from when I had AA against 2 3 suited ... guess the poker gods can be fickle ... hope to see u around m8 :-)
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 07:15:30 PM Man overboard in a real this way & that rollercoaster jobbie!
Hugh Kirtin had TT, Cemal Alp had JJ, but a T flopped, so it looked like Hugh had survived - until Cemal four flushed it... Oucharoonee! Hugh Kirtin OUT Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 07:16:58 PM Now Tom Sambrook is OUT, he took his chance with 44, but Killer Cemal caught his flush with a card to spare. Hugh out 4th. Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 07:19:34 PM So it's Ben The Milky Bar Kid Grundy, James The Geordie Browning, Cemal "Jimmy" Alp, & Mick The Clock Cook.
I will try & get some chip counts in a mo. And a CORRECTION - Hugh was out FIFTH, not FOURTH, as I reported. Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: Colchester Kev on April 10, 2005, 07:22:15 PM why is mick cook called "the clock" and why is cemal called "jimmy" .....just curious .
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 07:27:39 PM What a bizarre game this poker is. Ben Grundy is TOTALLY dominated with Q-T v Mick Cook's Q-J, but a board that includes J-9-K-x-Q takes the chips for Ben, & Mick Cook can only shake his head in frustration. Ben dobles up - BIG smile from Ben...... He seems destined to do well at Gutshot- yesterday he caught QUADS! Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 07:29:26 PM I have no idea why Cemal Alp is known as "Jimmy", or Mick Cook "The Clock", but maybe someone out there does........ Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: riverdave on April 10, 2005, 07:32:21 PM Having played dice with Mick he should be known as "The Bokk" :)
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 07:33:14 PM I am only 6 foot from the Final Table, but it's hellish crowded here, plenty of railbirds, so it's tough to see the action, but easy to hear the oohs & aahs.......
But a lovely atmo. Barry Martin has the microphone & is calling the hands, & there is a good spirit between the players, though poor Micky Cook still looks a bit dumbfounded as to how Ben Grundy slipped off the hook. Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 07:34:24 PM How you doing in the William Hill comp Dave? They got your number yet? Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: riverdave on April 10, 2005, 07:37:08 PM Tikay i'm 73rd of 140 left got about 12k they are paying 120 of the starting 1500. Grinding away Whacker style at the moment.
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: riverdave on April 10, 2005, 07:39:29 PM Just doubled down with 22 in the BB blinds 800/1600 small stack moves in for 4k he had 33!
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 07:43:35 PM Down to THREE. James Browning had slipped to about 40k, and took his chance with K-T, Ben Grundy had 66, & hit his set. James Browning OUT 4th. Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: webshadow on April 10, 2005, 07:44:01 PM can u give us a general chip count pls tikay :-)
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 07:46:40 PM Blinds now 6k-12k. Jimmy Alp has about 350k, Mick Cook has 260k, & Ben about 170k, all approx. "Business" is being discussed now. They seem to have redistributed the prize money for 1st 2nd & 3rd & are playing on, but they are insisting it is NOT a deal, they are still playing for the trophy, comp, & ranking points..... Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 07:47:53 PM And Ben Grundy's great effort is over, he is OUT 3rd, he had 5-6 against AK, they both hit, but Jimmy prevailed.
Ben Grundy OUT third. Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: webshadow on April 10, 2005, 07:48:20 PM thanx 4 the input ... could go anyway now......
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 07:49:19 PM We will try & suss out what "business" they agreed, as it is important for the Ranking points to clarify if it was a deal or not.
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: redsimon on April 10, 2005, 07:50:00 PM 8000 starting chips 85 runners. Isn't that 680000 total? Seemed to have gained 100k???
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: redsimon on April 10, 2005, 07:51:34 PM And Ben Grundy's great effort is over, he is OUT 3rd, he had 5-6 against AK, they both hit, but Jimmy prevailed. Ben Grundy OUT third. WP Ben. Showed your anon blog knockers a few things... Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 07:53:51 PM OK, Ben tells me the "business" was......
He and Mick Cook give Jimmy 20% of their winnings, (if they finished first) & Jimmy gives Mick & Ben 10% of HIS winnings if HE wins it. And no, it makes NO sense to me either. But an intersting point, is this a "deal" or not? Perhaps PokerInEurope's Jon Shoreman can advise, he may even end up being asked to "rule". Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 07:55:24 PM RedSimon, I DID say "approx", & I did mention that the rail is heaving with guys watching the action, so it's hard to tell exactly...... Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 07:56:04 PM Ben, pre-demise, with Cemal Jimmy Alp ......

Probably need to take a step ladder to future events? ;D Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: JonShoreman on April 10, 2005, 07:57:58 PM Sounds like a deal to me.
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 07:59:39 PM Jimmy & Mick seem to be discussing the "arrangement" again......Can hear raised voices!
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 08:00:29 PM When they were 4 handed, but Ben is hidden behind Jimmy Alp.
[attachment deleted by admin] Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 08:03:39 PM Thanks Jon. It's nowt to do with me, but I don't envy your situation hear - I think it's called Lose-Lose....! But you'd need to hear what the guys themselves say, Ben has told me his version, but I can't guarantee I have reported it accurately. Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 08:05:00 PM Good Idea Red! Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: redsimon on April 10, 2005, 08:05:27 PM You're doing a fine job there Tony. Next stop Luton?
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 08:07:58 PM Still almost impossible to see the action, there are scores of railbirds, but Mick Cook has seized the initiative & has some 450k, with Cemal Alp on about (note that word Red!) 230k. Guess it will all come down to a couple of all-ins....... Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: riverdave on April 10, 2005, 08:09:30 PM Came 78th in the end tikay picked up $130 $17k to the winner for just $25.
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 08:14:13 PM Oh dear, things are turning a bit nasty now. The "arrangement" was agreed when Jimmy was big chip leader, but now Mick is in charge, & there seems to be some misunderstanding as to how they stand. Barryy Martin has been asked to clarify what was agreed, but he won't, quite rightly, he says it's between the two guys. And the two guys are getting VERY ratty with each other now, Mick asking the railbirds to confirm what he thinks was agreed. More raised voices. Oh deary deary me........... Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: kashman on April 10, 2005, 08:18:12 PM i knew it..terrible deal anyway sounds like ben should clarify his situation........cos he threw his chips in and he mite not be getting anything extra........ :'(
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 08:18:41 PM Mick Cook wins it!
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 08:21:11 PM Mick hit trip threes with K-3 against Jimmy who had two tens....... Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: JonShoreman on April 10, 2005, 08:22:17 PM Please find out the details of the deal, thanks.
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 08:23:10 PM And a worthy winner, Mick was probably the class act in the Final, he waited his time, & came through to win it comfortably in the end. As they say in horse racing, "wins cosily".....
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 08:24:15 PM I wil try Jon, but I have a hunch they will have different opinions as to exactly what was agreed.
Give me 5 mins....... Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 08:25:22 PM And maybe Ben will be able to give you a steer as to what it was before he exited.
I will see what Jimmy & Mick say, if I dare ask....... Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: julian on April 10, 2005, 08:26:57 PM good job tikay & well done to barry, derek & the whole gutshot crew - hopefully clubs like this will be the future of poker in the uk.
i had a great couple of days & met lots of new faces - tx to all for the kind words. poker, don't you just love it Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: webshadow on April 10, 2005, 08:27:51 PM great coverage tikay .... many thanks... perhaps u could go in on the deal too lol ;-)
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 08:31:23 PM The deal appears to have been some sort of "saver", based on 10%-10%-20%, between the two lowest stacks & the chip leader as WAS at the time.
But the difference of opinion seemed to revolve around "10%/20% of WHAT"? 10% or 20% of the TOTAL prize money, or those same %'s on the difference between, say, 1st & 2nd. Glad I don't have to sort THAT out..... But all parties are adamant it was NOT "business" in the sense of a "deal"........ Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: Junior Senior on April 10, 2005, 08:33:22 PM My understanding is that if ANY form of deal is struck then the ranking points are frozen?!
John? / Tikay? Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 08:34:56 PM Well said Julian, perfectly put.
I hope you are feeling better now, a quick look at that boy of yours will do the trick. Watch out the Luton boys, the money is going North up the M1....! Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: JonShoreman on April 10, 2005, 08:36:16 PM Having a saver like this does constitute a deal.
The top four finishers will all receive ranking points for fourth place. Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: Foxy on April 10, 2005, 08:37:11 PM Hey Junior how you doing ? And why was you not at the Gutshot ??? ;)
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: Junior Senior on April 10, 2005, 08:38:18 PM from the horses mouth!
thanks John Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: Junior Senior on April 10, 2005, 08:39:47 PM golfing today foxy and had commitments yesterday. Will be at Luton though - see you then
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 08:40:20 PM Point taken Junior, but we need to be careful here.
I have nothing to do with how this is "ruled", that is Jon's problem, & I don't envy him. But for the sake of fairness, I AM obliged to report the truth as I understand it. At Luton, I reported the deal - which nobody else did - and it cost Julian a sack load of Ranking Points - quite correctly, too. It just needs to be "policed" all season, to ensure that these guys are on a level playing field. blonde will report what they see & hear when at Ranking Tornaments, end of story. Jon has to sort out the rest. Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 08:41:51 PM Nice one Jon, that's settled that! I have no idea if thats right or wrong, but if the ref say's it's a deal, it's a deal.....! Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: julian on April 10, 2005, 08:43:24 PM no worries tony, not sure what was worse tho, busting out of the comp or having to endure the train journey
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 08:46:30 PM Train Journey? That was the REWARD!
Remind me to lend you my "Great Western Steam in the 50's" Video. Excellent stuff, unforgettable. But don't watch it in bed, it tends to get me a bit worked up whenever I see it. Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 08:47:21 PM The happy couple........ [attachment deleted by admin] Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 10, 2005, 09:01:28 PM OK, Rhow & me are packing up the gear now, & gonna set off for the long drive home. Thank yous will be done later, we OUTA HERE..... Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: Ironside on April 10, 2005, 09:07:18 PM nice report tikay sorry i missed most of it took my family out for dinner
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: 7djl on April 10, 2005, 09:29:16 PM top coverage tikay, cya and julian in luton next week. "id rather be lucky than good" lol
;) all the best david Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: divaflava on April 10, 2005, 11:06:01 PM cheers, btw, kpnuts, who was cheering on the betfair boys earlier on here (while he attempted to shake off his hangover) has just pocketed $17.5K by winning the WH 50k+added ;D
Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: Milkybarkid on April 10, 2005, 11:34:24 PM thanks for the good luck messages
In regards to any deal it was between the first three.... but we essentially swapped percentages in each other. Jimmy and Mick said that this meant that the ranking points wouldn't be affected. It was just that whoever finished higher had to give a percentage of the difference to the other two. So i got 10% of the difference betwen me and Mick and Jimmy got 20% of the difference between him and Mick as he had double our chips when the percentages were agreed. Me and Jimmy didn't give each other anything..... Confused? We all were........... Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: Milkybarkid on April 10, 2005, 11:49:46 PM I think my family are becoming devout fans of Blonde's coverage.....
Thanks for keeping them up to date on my progress Tikay! Title: Re: The Coral-Gutshot Main Event - Final Day Post by: tikay on April 11, 2005, 12:04:53 AM Well, dealing with Ironside first, we sure did miss you fella. blonde Live Updates are not the same without Ironside stoking the fires, & giving us his startlingly awful predictions. I have not had time to read about his Aberdeen heroics yet, but I will tomorrow. You are excused on this occasion Ironside - don't let it happen again. Ben Grundy's family? Is that the Dad that does not recognize his son.......? As to the "saver", Jon has given his ruling based upon what we reported, case closed. If anyone is unhappy about that, they should conact Jon. And kpnuts won the William Hill comp - nice one!
