They said 1.30 start but started 1.10 instead hehe. Straight away Channing has hit the ground running, after a couple of raises and reraises passed this time he finds Leo Kam flat calling the 8k/16k blind and Paul Gardner makes a raise to 40k more.
Neil (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=302) Channing (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=302) reraised all in after not much of a dwell, Paul Gardner called with Ahrt Tc. Channing says "Wow, didn't expect that hand!" as he turned over Qd Qh. The board was no help and Gardner is about 190k poorer, around 100k now. Channing now on 400k.

Morning, friends! Should you tire of the slowness of following a single final table update, why not head over to the other final day thread, the one from the blondepoker Waterford Festival Main Event? We've just now started with two tables - among the decent-sized stacks is one Ms Jennifer Mason...

Think I'm cheering on Leo Kam who I spent a while with over the two days, he's a nice guy and is just a raising machine, pretty outstanding.
And cheering for Neil Channing too who has played excellently. From being very short stacked early during day one to make a comeback like this is first class. Title: Re: Bluesquare.com Blackpool GUKPT: Final Day - Interactive Post by: Chili on November 18, 2007, 03:08:46 PM Personally I'm really pleased for Neil Channing too and would love to see him win this baby. Being one of the best cash game players in the country, this would be a great string to add.

Next hand Neil raises and Ben Vinson calls in position. Flop: 5h 3s 9s Neil bets 75k again, which Ben calls. Turn: 7s Neil checks, Ben bets 110k. Neil asks how much Ben has left, saying, "After the flop I had you on Sixes, Sevens or Eights. Ok, you win." And Neil folds.

Both show an Ace. Woohoo. Title: Re: Bluesquare.com Blackpool GUKPT: Final Day - Interactive Post by: NoflopsHomer on November 18, 2007, 04:50:27 PM Paul Gardner, Lee Biddulph, Paul Bracken and Mike Williams see an unraised pot.
Flop: 2d Kd 5s Check to Gardner who bets 32k, Biddulph calls. Paul Bracken passes, Mike Williams also calls, and the pot is getting big.

He passes.
Next hand, Vinson raises to 61k and Gardner goes all in for a further 245k, Ben raises a few eyebrows and passes. Title: Re: Bluesquare.com Blackpool GUKPT: Final Day - Interactive Post by: Chili on November 18, 2007, 05:34:13 PM Williams raises again to 80k from early possition, Paul Gardner next to him insta reraises for another 131k more.

Title: Re: Bluesquare.com Blackpool GUKPT: Final Day - Interactive Post by: NoflopsHomer on November 18, 2007, 05:49:50 PM Paul Bracken confidently pushes out 90k from UTG, Paul Gardner calls.
Flop: 9h 3s 6c Ragtastic and check check. Aspades Bracken bets 90k, Gardner calls. Ac Bracken moves all-in, Gardner passes. Next hand, Mike Williams limps UTG. Paul Murrell comes in from the button. Channing makes up the small blind and Bracken checks. 4h Qc Ahrt Check to Murrell who bets 50k and only Williams calls. 5c Chec check. Jh Now Williams leads out for a 'call-me call-me' bet of 60k. But Murrell raises another 60k and I'm speculating Q-J or K-T. Murrell, "I'll show you if you pass...I'll show you if you call." So we're going to see his cards either way. "I can't pass for another 60k can I?" says Williams. He calls and shows Q-J. And the cheeky min-raiser Murrell can only show T-9, "I meant to make it 180k, I don't know what happened." Next hand, Neil Channing moves all-in and wins the blinds to a big cheer from the crowd.

Here are the latest chip counts for your perusal. Blinds are now 15k / 30k (2k).
Seat 1 Ben Vinson 1,262,000 Seat 3 Paul Murrell 1,042,000 Seat 6 Paul Bracken 728,000 Seat 8 Paul Gardner 494,000 Title: Re: Bluesquare.com Blackpool GUKPT: Final Day - Interactive Post by: Chili on November 18, 2007, 08:34:01 PM First hand and Ben comes in dancing with a 95K button raise, Murrell in the small blind makes the call and Bracken passes. On a flop of:
7d 2c 7c they both checked and we see Ac Murrell bets out 140K and Ben passes. Murrell shows pocket nines. Title: Re: Bluesquare.com Blackpool GUKPT: Final Day - Interactive Post by: NoflopsHomer on November 18, 2007, 08:34:12 PM Ben Vinson and the Pauls. (A 60's rock 'n' roll band name if ever I saw one)
Title: Re: Bluesquare.com Blackpool GUKPT: Final Day - Interactive Post by: NoflopsHomer on November 18, 2007, 08:39:41 PM Bracken raises to 90k, Murrell calls from the big blind.
6s Qc Kd Murrell checks, Bracken bets 150k and Murrell looks a little glum, and then passes sharpish. Short stack Paul Gardner raises to 110k, Ben Vinson gives him evils but then folds. Resting his hand on his chin, Paul Murrell announces, "Raise to 320k." "Oohhhhhhhh," goes the pressroom collective. Into the tank goes Gardner, he's made a big raise, he passes though, and I think he'll be rueing not just making it 70k - 80k instead of 110k and then still folding. Title: Re: Bluesquare.com Blackpool GUKPT: Final Day - Interactive Post by: Chili on November 18, 2007, 08:53:49 PM Ben Vinson raises to 91,000, Murrell re raised to 250,000. Bracken nows does a huge dwell up, counts his chips, sighs, even states "I can win the tournament right here!" But then passed!! Back to Ben Vinson who also passes, then Murrell says to Bracken "What you have, Jacks?"
Bracken says "Of course I had Jacks, thought that was obvious!" Bracken looks a little disturbed at his pass on more reflection. Title: Re: Bluesquare.com Blackpool GUKPT: Final Day - Interactive Post by: NoflopsHomer on November 18, 2007, 08:59:29 PM Paul (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=947) Murrell (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=947) raises from the button, Paul Gardner moves in, and Murrell is pot committed.
Aspades 9c for Murrell Td Tc for Gardner Board: 6c Ts 5s 9d Ac "Up the ladder!" is again the cry. Not sure which ladder he's referring to or where it's actually going. He's up to 670k now, but at the same time he seems to limp far too much. (http://moblog.co.uk/blogs/4552/thumbs/moblog_67ec1a2dffe2e.jpg) Title: Re: Bluesquare.com Blackpool GUKPT: Final Day - Interactive Post by: NoflopsHomer on November 18, 2007, 09:01:31 PM Ben (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=47) Vinson (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=47) raises to 91,000, Murrell re raised to 250,000. Bracken nows does a huge dwell up, counts his chips, sighs, even states "I can win the tournament right here!" But then passed!!

Bracken says "Of course I had Jacks, thought that was obvious!" Bracken looks a little disturbed at his pass on more reflection. I can't believe he says this and then passes. Also, Ben is VERY aggressive, and Murrell's re-raising range can easily incorporate most pairs. Title: Re: Bluesquare.com Blackpool GUKPT: Final Day - Interactive Post by: Chili on November 18, 2007, 09:06:16 PM The very next hand Paul Gardner doubles up AGAIN this time through Ben Vinson. Gardner raised to 120k and Ben called in the BB. We saw a flop like:
9d Qd 3c Ben checks, Gardner bets 160,000. Ben then makes it a further 400,000 to carry on and Paul just shrugs "Im all in then!" Ben calls the remainder. On there backs: Ben Jh Td Gardner Qs Kc the cards came 4d 7s and sends Ben Vinson down to the short stack on 475,000 and Paul Gardner catapoults to 1,353,000 for the chip lead. Title: Re: Bluesquare.com Blackpool GUKPT: Final Day - Interactive Post by: NoflopsHomer on November 18, 2007, 09:08:17 PM Kd Jh 4h
Ben (down to 475k now) bets 45k, Muzza calls. 2d Ben checks, Muzza bets 100k and Ben passes.

Flop: Ts 9h 6h Bracken bets 110k, Gardner makes it 310k and Bracken moves all-in. Gardner calls! Gardner: Td 5d Bracken: 9d 6s Turn: Qc River: 7d So Paul Gardner is OUT in 2nd and wins £56,500. And... PAUL BRACKEN IS THE BLACKPOOL GUKPT CHAMPION WINNING £109,700!!!!

Title: Re: Bluesquare.com Blackpool GUKPT: Final Day - Interactive Post by: CrestOfaWave on November 19, 2007, 03:51:51 AM wd Paul - sat with him for 3 hours or so on day one and we had some good banter.
He told me he was mainly a cash player and lives in the US mainly now. He was attentive to every single hand and when I bust with about 13k chips left on level 8 he only had about the same as me so he did well to get to the FT as the blinds antes were crippling at that point. Great updates as usual. Greg |
