Title: Bluesq.com GUKPT Brighton Day 2: Interactive Post by: danafish on January 19, 2008, 12:46:58 PM Good morning everyone! Rod, Jen and I (suddenly that reminds me of 70s and 80s kids' TV favourites Rod, Jane and Freddy, in so many different ways) have all had a good 10 hours' sleep and are all now fully-rested, well-fed and ready to face the day! No, just kidding, we've actually had 5 hours' sleep and vodka last night while watching Youtube documentaries about children's beauty pageants and we all feel like death. Regardless, we will be down at the Grosvenor come 2pm for the start of Day 2. Those still in include the likes of Julian Thew, Dave Colclough, aforementioned Jen Mason, Dave "Dubai on blonde" Shallow, James Atkin and Stuart Rutter, all playing for a chunk of the £290-or-so-000 pool. JOIN US...

;karabiner; All scarf updates appreciated. Title: Re: Bluesq.com GUKPT Brighton Day 2: Interactive Post by: danafish on January 19, 2008, 01:50:10 PM Cmon the Nutter! ;karabiner; All scarf updates appreciated. So far there has little or no scarf action. In fact, the Rutter seems to be losing garments at an astounding rate. Wednesday night he had an outdoor coat, come yesterday morning he was in merely a sweater, and by end of play last night he was down to just his t-shirt. Expect full-on nakedness if he makes Day 3...

Here is the full list of the remaining 70 players. They will be playing down to the final table today. Yesterday's action was fast, frenetic and aggressive. I anticipate this morning could well start fast as the smaller stacks try and double up, so there should be some blood being spilled...I hope all those who went out till the early hours yesterday are prepared for the firestorm ahead! I just bumped into Alex Martin, who was one of those who partook in some alcoholic beverages last night but he seems relatively fresh and is confident about the day ahead. Jen "Baconhead" Mason is also working off a few hours sleep but once she hears the sounds of chips clicking and cards riffling, she will no doubt fall into her stride very quickly. Too many names remain to mention them all so without further ado, here is the full list plus chip counts of today's particpators. Good luck all! Light the blue touch paper and retire....

Wayne Rideout (http://www.westernposterpage.com/waynehorse.jpg) Actually now I look at him doesn't he look a bit like Kev? Title: Re: Bluesq.com GUKPT Brighton Day 2: Interactive Post by: Dewi_cool on January 19, 2008, 02:11:02 PM He's a cowboy though, that's near enough ;D
Title: Re: Bluesq.com GUKPT Brighton Day 2: Interactive Post by: danafish on January 19, 2008, 02:18:33 PM They have shuffled up, and they have dealt.
Full seating plan on its way, but for the moment I can tell you that an interesting table should be the one that has Jen, Julian and chip leader Robert Cowens at it. I understand there have been a couple of exits already; Junglecat will bring you details shortly. Stand by for photos... Title: Re: Bluesq.com GUKPT Brighton Day 2: Interactive Post by: HornswaggleU on January 19, 2008, 02:25:32 PM ;slavedriver;
Title: Re: Bluesq.com GUKPT Brighton Day 2: Interactive Post by: JungleCat03 on January 19, 2008, 02:35:57 PM There may have been an exit or two, but they were very surreptitious exits if so...
The early exchanges have involved mainly riases followed by passes... Jen was seen raising Julian (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=225) Thew (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=225)'s big blind to 3,600 from late position. The battle between goldenboy Thewy and bacon head Mason was shortlived though, as Julian quickly passed and Jen threw him an apologetic glance, as she quietly mucked her cards. Josh Tyler was seen betting 8k or so on the river of an A high board, only to muck when his opponent called and showed an ace, and he was left muttering something about queens... Ian (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=176) Woodley (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=176) was seen raping and pillaging, well raising from the cut-off and picking up the blinds without too much trouble... Just to clarify, the top 27 protagonists will be paid today with £280,000 of prize money in total and a cool £86,800 plus for the winner. Incentive enough to ignore that hangover for many of last night's revellers I imagine. Title: Re: Bluesq.com GUKPT Brighton Day 2: Interactive Post by: JungleCat03 on January 19, 2008, 02:39:29 PM Here is the full seating plan for today.

Title: Re: Bluesq.com GUKPT Brighton Day 2: Interactive Post by: danafish on January 19, 2008, 03:25:45 PM A number of incidents:
Two simultaneous boring A-K v A-K splits, one on Table Dubai, between Dubai himself and Mr Farbod Javad (below, in shades), and the other between Nik Persaud and Josh Tyler. (http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=8129&g2_serialNumber=2) (http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=8130&g2_serialNumber=1) Dubai looks a bit short after allegedly being (allegedly) slow-rolled by Joe Grech who was holding A-2 for trips, but he isn't slowing down any. Saw him raise utg (says Woody Deck, now on his left - "Stop raising! Fish!") and again be called by Javad; they both checked the 3s 5c Tc flop, and Dubai took it with a big ol' bet on the 5d turn.

After starting the day in good shape, he lost half his chips with Queens v Kings, all in on a raggy flop. He then shoved with A-J to a raise and found himself called by the mighty 7-8 suited, which obviously hit. Unlucky, Adam.
Unlucky also that he appears to have some kind of growth on his shoulder. I'd get that checked out by a doctor I were him.

Title: Re: Bluesq.com GUKPT Brighton Day 2: Interactive Post by: danafish on January 19, 2008, 03:31:41 PM This beshaded gent, one Ian Holman, seems to have doubled up with Q-Q against A-Q on a Q-high flop. Ouch, that A-Q. I got to the table a bit late to 100% confirm, but I believe the unfortunate A-Q-er was Dave Colclough.

I missed his exit, but his assassin, Paul Gardener, filled me in. Apparently Lam called a raise with Ad Qd in late position. They both checked the Q-9-4 flop, and then ended up all in on the turn, which was another Nine. Gardener was holding 9-T.

Title: Re: Bluesq.com GUKPT Brighton Day 2: Interactive Post by: JungleCat03 on January 19, 2008, 03:38:22 PM Hows Dubai getting on? I am sure he will have had an early night last night and wont have been on the sauce ;) Dubai is looking a little the worse for wear and was recently involved in a bit of a dispute with Joe Grech. Apparently Joe took a while to call a large Dubai bet holding trip deuces, and Dubai was somewhat miffed at what he felt was a slowroll. He soon perked up though, raising on the button on Chris Sokrati's big blind. Chris found 9-9 and decided this had to be good versus a Dubai raise on the button and shoved his chips in. Sadly for him, Dubai had a genuine hand for once in A-A and once he insta-called, Chris couldn't spike the 9 he needed to remain in contention, meaning Soxy has joined the rail. "That's as much of a coldeck as Kings into Aces versus Dubai!" bemoaned Chris with some justification. Tony Mackay is also one of the early casualties, and Dave Clarke adn blondeite Alex Martin are also early casualties. I'll try and ascertain some details of these hands in due course.... Jen is prospering though. She has just taken a healthy chunk in the region of 25k off Roberts Cowan, one of the overnight chip leaders. With 6-6 on a 7-8-9-2-2 board, Jen called all the way, including what was perhaps the toughest call on the river, but her baconhair-fuelled bravery was rewarded as Cowans showed her Q-T for a missed straight draw, meaning Jen is now 65-70k and well in contention with the leaders. The cowboy Dana has been fantasising about all morning, Wayne Rideout, has hightailed it off into the sunset, losing a crucial coinflip and a fistful of dollars to Karim Louis somewhat brutally. Holding A-Q vs Karim's 2-2, the flop was good for him, coming x-Q-x-, the turn x wasn't bad for him.....BUT the river 2 was as UGLY as it gets, meaning Karim had rivered a 2 out for a set cruelly ending "John" Wayne Rideout's tournament/ Title: Re: Bluesq.com GUKPT Brighton Day 2: Interactive Post by: danafish on January 19, 2008, 03:41:06 PM Dear Guests reading this update thread - why don't you sign up to blondepoker?

Title: Re: Bluesq.com GUKPT Brighton Day 2: Interactive Post by: JungleCat03 on January 19, 2008, 03:44:15 PM Stuart Rutter, who has worked tirelessly to remove the indelible association he has with scarfs this week, by failing to be spotted in one all week, despite the cold and rain, is also sadly out.
He shoved on the button with A-K, only to find a hero caller with T-8 and the flop came Q-Q-5-5...T! Another cruel river consigns one more player to the rail and Stuart looked a bit glum as I spoke to him about his exit. He's been a great laugh whilst he's been in the tournament though and we all know he'll be back soon...

Also OUT is Efty Neocleous, who made a pretty 'Efty all-in raise with pocket Sixes and ran them into Karim Louis' pocket Kings. No Six on the board, although Efty remained vocally convinced it was coming until the very end, and he's gone now.

The turn and river were Ac and 8d, so please insert your own Sudworth/suds/flushing joke here, and know that he is gone.

Just a quick question for the Jungle Cat.....did u manage to get the turtle back from the neighbours balcony as a result of another flushy blunder? I know how much that fluffy little dude meant to you! The turtle was used as a pawn in the never ending power struggle between myself and flushy. An innocent casualty of war, he was captured by our neighbour and an unsuccessful SAS operation to recover him (involving dangling a piece of rope over the edge of our balcony) failed, meaning he is missing, presumed dead. Flushy is a moron, it neverends, but I must move on. Thanks for the concern though! As soon as I express how well I feel Jen is doing, she loses a mega pot where she passes top 2 with A-K on a K-x-T-A turn. It's an interesting hand, I'm not quite sure who it was played against but it involved Jen raising preflop then betting out with her A-K on the K-x-T board. She was check raised by villain, before making a VERY large 3 bet, which was flat called... On the arrival of the turn A, villain moved in for his, and also her CONSIDERABLE stack and she passed...Interesting, she felt like he had a set/ straight here. I'm not 100% sure I agree....what do you guys think? Title: Re: Bluesq.com GUKPT Brighton Day 2: Interactive Post by: Thomthecom on January 19, 2008, 05:22:28 PM Yep the pictured player is indeed Gutshot's own (Dealer) Stevie Z, who final tabled at the London Poker Masters at the Clerkenwell Club a few weeks ago

"How could you call?" lamented Woodley... Jen was also in this hand but was sandwiched on the river and passed a 9 to Ian's bet, fearing Jelinek waiting to act behind. She looked quite gutted after this hand and after finding herself with 100k+ earlier, she now was down to 40k or so... Jelinek followed up this coup with a 10K bet on the turn of a T-8-7-T board, and a 15k bet on the A river which was called, but his opponent mucked quickly as Steve showed a sparkling set of snowmen with 8-8... Title: Re: Bluesq.com GUKPT Brighton Day 2: Interactive Post by: JungleCat03 on January 19, 2008, 05:39:49 PM Baconhair-Jen's play may have been slightly streaky so far but her feeling of malaise was swiftly cured however as she found the now relatively short stacked Ian Woodley raising in late position.
Jen looked down to find a manly pair of cowboys staring back at her and moved allin. The pot committed Ian Woodley called, showing the limp but not yet done A-6. The board filled up with a series of inconsequential cards that changed nothing meaning Jen receives a healthy boost to her stack whilst the inimitable and loud but not unpleasant Ian Woodley is OUT! Never one to give an opponent the rub-down, there were no rind-ups from Jen for Ian(despite the fact he mocked her for "just being a girl" earlier) , but a quick shake of the hands and Jen was almost back to having a pig stack again...

A couple of key hands include one where he knocked out the very short Neil Fox (incidentally a well known Brighton local player - not the chubby capital one DJ) in a 4-4 v K-J match up... Not long after, the aggressive Dave (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=114) Shallow (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=114) raised it up from middle position and Julian re-raised from the big blind. Dave instantly moved in and Julian instantly called,. Dubai was holding A-10, Julian a spiffing pair of Kings, which duly held, plummenting Julian up towards the higher echelons of the leaderboard whilst Dubai, who has had a difficult first period of Day 2 has seen his stack reduced yet again...

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=8180&g2_serialNumber=2) Both yesterday and today he made bold statements with his choice of polo shirts.

However, they both check the Ahrt Kd 6d Raiser's Flop, and give it up when Fletcher bets 8k, Louis folding pocket Fives face up. "That's the last time I give you chips," vows Atkin. Fletcher is not afraid. Well he should be afraid. Very afraid. James Atkin isn't internationally known as "The Atkinator" for nothing you know! Title: Re: Bluesq.com GUKPT Brighton Day 2: Interactive Post by: danafish on January 19, 2008, 06:05:48 PM Entertaining machismo-isms from Robert Cowen:
Luke Trotman bets 10k on a 5d Qc 6d flop. Cowen asks for a count; Trotman has 24.3k remaining. He asks, "Is that 24.3 or 24.2?" "What difference does it make?" says Trotman. Cowen thunks 24.2k down on the table. "You call this, I'll check it down," he challenges. Trotman folds, and looks harassed; Cowen shows 5c. Jen is clearly bored of poker and checking how long is left until the dinner break.

Jen herself is on around 65 or 70k. Robert Cowen and Dubai are becoming increasingly aggressive in their banter with one another. The buffet will hopefully be nice. Back in 45 minutes when we'll have full chip counts. Mmm.

News is that Mick Fletcher went out in the last hand before dinner to Monstrous Stack Joe Grech. By the way, here is the rather long overdue payout, stolen from the nice Bluesquare people: 1st Place £86,800 plus seat in Grand Final 2nd Place £46,200 3rd Place £30,800 4th Place £22,400 5th Place £16,800 6th Place £14,000 7th Place £11,200 8th Place £8,400 9th Place £5,600 10th Place £4,200 11th Place £2,800 12th to 15th £2,240 16th to 21st £1,960 22nd to 27th £1,680 280 players, total of £280,000 Final tablists each receive a nano iPod, apparently. Title: Re: Bluesq.com GUKPT Brighton Day 2: Interactive Post by: JungleCat03 on January 19, 2008, 07:31:09 PM Just before the break a very big hand played out between Roberts Cowen and Talal Shakerchi, who Jen has been duelling with.
Talal raised to 7k, which was called by Cowen. The flop came Qs Qc 4s. Talal now led for 10k and Cowen raised another 15-20k. Talal now pushed for 50k more or so and Cowen (who incidentally is carrying a piece of paper saying "STOP AND THINK") followed the advice on his paper and after firing a few questions at Talal and thinking about what to do decided to make the call with J-J. It proved a good call, as Talal flipped over 9-9, leaving Cowen punching the sky happily as the turn and river blanked. Exit Talal and Cowen moved into the dinner break in 2nd spot, behind the extremely well stacked Joe Grech... Here are the rest of the chip counts as we approach the bubble. Players will no doubt go crazy now, all desperate to finish outside the money... Either that or they will merely follow convention and all the medium and short stacks will lock up allowing the biggies to bully them. Let's see what happens! Josef Grech 438600 Roberts Cowen 260400 Karim Louis 227500 Julian Thew 193100 Niall Charlton 163200 James Reid 151200 Robert Garfield 120200 Nik Persaud 95600 Steve Jelinek 93900 Marcus Bebb-Jones 71900 John Eames 70600 Jen Mason 70400 Jonothon Butters 68900 Fabio Esposito 68800 Alan Dean 67500 Farbod Javad 63500 Darren Grosvenor 61200 Paul Gardner 57800 Colin Linton 57200 Micheal Bolger 56600 Woody Deck 55700 Ross Campbell 55600 Dave Shallow 50500 Josh Tyler 48700 Stephen Slavin 43200 David Colclough 40500 Jason Powell 40100 Simon Wickenden 38600 James Atkin 24900 Mark Bointon 22400 Title: Re: Bluesq.com GUKPT Brighton Day 2: Interactive Post by: danafish on January 19, 2008, 07:37:10 PM Here is our Monstrous Chip Leader:

Title: Re: Bluesq.com GUKPT Brighton Day 2: Interactive Post by: JungleCat03 on January 19, 2008, 07:46:22 PM Paul Gardner played out a big pot earlier. Having raised he was re-raised allin by a shorter stack, Alan (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=16) Dean (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=16)...
The shorty didn't have him covered but there was still a sizeable amount in the pot as Paul called with J-J and found Alan with As Kh... Josh Tyler ran a commentary on the hand as the dealer dealt out the cards. Qh Th 3s.... "oooooohhhhhhh" (said Josh) 7h "OOOOOOOOHHHHHHHH" (said Josh) "No heart, no heart" was the heartfelt plea from Gardner... River was.....A JACK! making a set for Gardner but completing Alan's straight to keep him in the competition. "Oohhhhhhh.......SICK SICK SICK!" (was Josh's final contribution)....I feel he may need to work on the diversity of his commentary if he ever wants to seek professional work in the field. In the words of Dana "You can see the moment Gardner's heart actually breaks in two..." Showing the ruthless streak that causes her to steal my puns and dye her hair pink, Dana nonetheless bravely dived in and snapped the man's moment of pain. And here it is...

Title: Re: Bluesq.com GUKPT Brighton Day 2: Interactive Post by: danafish on January 19, 2008, 08:33:18 PM Ok, we've been standing around in the cardroom watching basically NOTHING happen for ages now, so I thought I'd better come up and check that no-one has done anything terrible to our thread.
Paul Gardener was all in at one point, but he had the other guy (I think it was Farbod Javad) covered. He's still hanging in there. Also just about hanging in is James Atkin, who was kicking himself. Super-super-short (like 15k short now), he found himself squirming on the cut-off. "This will be SO tight if I fold. SUPER-tight." Eventually, with much face-pulling, he lays it down. Joe Grech and Rob Garfield in the blinds see a A-K-9 flop. "NoooooOOOH!" squeals James. Afterwards he says he had A-Q. Says tablemate Dave Colclough to him: "Weren't you in second place or something this morning?" James confirms he was. "Folding A-Q?" Coclough continues. James has become somewhat hysterical. As expected, Joe Grech is ripping them up down there. At one point he was heard to say, "Just 27 left..." I did get a photo of his gigantic stupidly monstrous-huge stack, but I left the camera with Junglecat in the hopes that he might catch the unlucky bubbler in the act, as it were. Soon, my pretties, soon... Title: Re: Bluesq.com GUKPT Brighton Day 2: Interactive Post by: danafish on January 19, 2008, 08:36:34 PM Everyone seems pleased with the payout structure this year, what with the bottom rung of the payout almost twice the buy-in rather than just slightly more than the buy-in. This information comes to the attention of Nik Persaud: "£1680?! That's big money! I might start tightening up!" It's true, I haven't seen him play a hand in half an hour.
Title: Re: Bluesq.com GUKPT Brighton Day 2: Interactive Post by: danafish on January 19, 2008, 08:40:25 PM Here is a picture of a lot of chips to give you some sort of idea how Joe Grech's stack might look:
(http://www.latestbuy.com.au/img/productImages/tripmain1.jpg) During the dinner break Jon Raab speculated that Joe's stack would already be about average for three-way on the final table. He has more now. Snoops, this is definitely the guy to nip. Title: Re: Bluesq.com GUKPT Brighton Day 2: Interactive Post by: danafish on January 19, 2008, 08:42:10 PM By the way I found out what happened to Dubai -
He was down to 60k and was shoving every few hands; eventually he button-shoved his A-7 into Steve Jelinek's Pocket Queens. He took it very well, apparently. "Yeah, he doesn't care," said Jen. OOH, OOHHHH, the bubble's burst. Title: Re: Bluesq.com GUKPT Brighton Day 2: Interactive Post by: Card_Shark on January 19, 2008, 08:57:27 PM Great updates guy's, any chance of some chip counts for the leaders please? also expect a strong finish from the very consistant Steve Jelinek.
Title: Re: Bluesq.com GUKPT Brighton Day 2: Interactive Post by: celtic on January 19, 2008, 09:00:19 PM Well done to Rob Garfield for making the money and to Joe Grech, the 2nd best poker player of maltese origin in the world :)

He's still fine, we should have full chip counts in the next few minutes as we're approaching the end of the level. Title: Re: Bluesq.com GUKPT Brighton Day 2: Interactive Post by: JungleCat03 on January 19, 2008, 09:12:01 PM yes indeedy, the protracted bubble period is indeed at an end.
Various things happened during the bubble, such as Paul Gardner getting very short with J-J vs A-A before multiple shoves, which weren't looked up got him back into the running. Dave (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=95) Colclough (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=95) took some chips off Joe (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=205) Grech (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=205), nicely judging a value bet with his K-K on an A high flop before making a good bet for a decent amount of his stack with 2nd pair as Joe bluffed with a missed gutshot... HOWEVER, most importantly, we had our unlucky bubbler in 28th spot. James "Mcepitome" Atkin had become very short over the bubble period, missing a spot to double up earlier when he passed A-Q to no raise in the cutoff... Down to 14k or so with 4k in the BB, he was virtually committed if someone raised, although perhaps the A-Q pass from James earlier convinced Rob (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=381) Garfield (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=381) that he could get one through, so raise he did and James called allin, holding Ah Kh versus Rob's surprising 6-2... "This is going to be sick!" announced James and his words were to prove prophetic... The flop came 9s 4c 5h ........"OOOHHHHHHHHHHHHH" said the watching crowds, who have clearly been attending the Josh Tyler school of commentary excellence, if such an organisation exists.... The turn improved Rob's chances of outdrawing James even further as a 7h fell, meaning Rob now had an open ended straight draw. James could barely look at the river and it fell.... THE 6d! A single pair on the river was sufficient to give Rob the popt and consign James to the growing ranks of nearly men, leaving the casino to console themselves with fish, chips, gravy and large and bountiful quantities of ale... Here is James, taking his defeat in good grace and managing to squeeze a smile out despite his beat... (http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=8209&g2_serialNumber=1) And here is Rob, happy to burst the bubble and increase the size of his piles...of chips.

Title: Re: Bluesq.com GUKPT Brighton Day 2: Interactive Post by: danafish on January 19, 2008, 09:38:40 PM Farbod Javad has won a HUUUGE hand off of Roberts Cowen.
Javad raised preflop and Cowen called. Flop - Kh 3d 6h - Cowen checks and Javad bets 15k; Cowen calls. Turn - Kd - Cowen bets out 27.5k and Javad flat-calls. River - Jh - Cowen now checks and Javad goes all in for 60k or so. Cowen dwells up longer than it takes Junglecat to think of a pork-centric pun. "Will you show me if I show you what I'm folding?" It is agreed. He folds and they show. Cowen - 7s 7d Javad - Ts Th Wow.

Title: Re: Bluesq.com GUKPT Brighton Day 2: Interactive Post by: danafish on January 19, 2008, 09:55:28 PM I agree!! Very slow. Apologies if you feel we're too slow. To get from card room to press room, we have to walk literally the entire length of the casino floor, up some stairs, through a door with a combination code, up 4 flights of stairs, through another door with a combination code, and down a corridor. In addition to this, uploading photos is just shockingly time-consuming, and while they're uploading our computers freeze up. If you have any suggestions as to how to improve this, please share them, we'd be grateful.

Facing a button raise from Rob Garfield, Dave re-raised allin and was called pretty sharpish by Rob, who was holding Ah-Kh. Dave sighed and flipped over As 6c. A board devoid of 6s transpired meaning Dave's slightly mis-timed move failed to pay off and he departs leaving in 19th place or so... Here is Dave sans chips but wearing a big smile as he leaves the tournament to deserved mumbles of "well played" by his tablemates.

Title: Re: Bluesq.com GUKPT Brighton Day 2: Interactive Post by: JungleCat03 on January 19, 2008, 10:25:16 PM Jen has been super busy since those last chip counts went up, blossoming her burgeoning stack into half a million or so chips and she is very likely to be the new chip leader now as we approach the run up to the final table.
Here's a reminder of the payout structures. 1st Place £86,800 plus seat in Grand Final 2nd Place £46,200 3rd Place £30,800 4th Place £22,400 5th Place £16,800 6th Place £14,000 7th Place £11,200 8th Place £8,400 9th Place £5,600 10th Place £4,200 11th Place £2,800 12th to 15th £2,240 16th to 21st £1,960 22nd to 27th £1,680 The competition looks pretty open at this stage. Julian Thew has played sensibly all day today and finding himself near the summit as we approach the final means he will be a big threat to take down his 2nd GUKPT and roughly 27th title(ish) in a few months... Jen Mason's reputation should be spreading far and wide given her propensity to accumulate chips and run deep in virtually every worthwhile live event she plays. Can she put the icing on the cake, shake off her denigrating bacon-hair tag and take down her first GUKPT? The highly experienced Joe Grech is also very well stacked and his breadth of experience in these situations should give him an edge that lots of players here won't have. Steve Jelinek is another highly consistent player and he has kept himself well in contention all tournament and has to be taken seriously as a contender to take down the trophy. Who will win...? I'm off to join Dana as we approach the last few furlongs to see who can make it through to do battle tomorrow on the final table.

If you honestly don't like the updates, then perhaps you should go to another site instead. I covered Brighton last year and after the Vic, it has the longest distance between the media room and the competition area, combined with some dodgy wireless, makes regular updates hard to deliver. And as Rod (and I'm sure Flushy) can testify, it's not exactly the most spacious or well laid out casino that Grosvenor have. If you have any problems with the updates then you should be PM-ing me about them rather than putting it on the thread.

Cowen actually took out another player with the same Aces - afraid we don't know who, as he'd only just been moved to that table and no-one could tell us who it was.]
Another victim of the monster that is Grech-del has gone - this time the shortstacked Alan Dean. Nik Persaud raised utg and Alan Dean flat called. Grech got himself some kidn of read, and re-raised to around 60k - enough to cover Dean. Nik got out of the way pretty sharpish, and Dean proceeded to dwell and squirm. Eventually he declared, "You know what I've got," and called. Alan Dean - Th Td Joe Grech - Kd Qd Board - 9c Qs 6c Aspades 8s There was some good-natured handshaking, and Grech the Great marauds on.

Title: Re: Bluesq.com GUKPT Brighton Day 2: Interactive Post by: JungleCat03 on January 19, 2008, 11:12:00 PM An enormous hand just played out between Jen Mason and Julian Thew...
I joined the action on a flop of 7c 8c 9s contested three way between Jen, Julian and Roberts Cowen. Julian had 50k in front of him laid out as a bet and Roberts Cowen considered getting involved before passing. The action moved round to Jen, who clicked and shuffled her chips in her unique, deliberate thoughtful way as she pondered the ramifications of the different options open to her.....before quietly announcing "ALLIN." Julian leaned back in his chair and sighed, apparently not too overjoyed at this turn of events...the lack of insta-passing meant he clearly had some sort of big decision to make here though. Could he call off his remaining 140k or so chips? After much face rubbing, smiling at Jen and contemplation he finally made the call, turning over 9-8 for top 2 pair. Jen tabled T-T for an overpair and open ended straight draw. A huge coin flip then but who would emerge victorious? The turn was the...As. The river was the 9h! This gave Julian a winning full house, an enormous pot and a massively relieved expression. Jen looked shell shocked as she complimented Julian on a nice hand. She lost a lot of chips on this hand but is still left with roughly 100k, which she is well capable of spinning up. Here is a shot of the aftermath of the hand, so gripping not even the merest glimpse of Dena's cleavage can draw you away from the action I bet...well....

Man, they're like buses. First up John Eames is out, apparently shoving with 5d 7d into Jim Reid's Aces. Oops. I have photos but for the sake of prompt informationizing, I'll upload them in a minute or two, after I tell you about a spectacular crazy three-way all-in. After absolutely nothing at all happening on Table Grech for some time, it was like they all collectively snapped or something. Niall Charlton is all in with 8s 8h Rory Campbell is all in with Ts Th Karim Louis has sensibly called all of this with Ahrt Ac Board - Kd Tc ("yessss!" says Rory) 2c Qd ("jack!" and "no jack!" are the assorted cries of onlookers) Jh Rory Campbell and Niall Charlton are both OUT.

Somehow l don't think l am, but l am telling it how it is. Jen and Adam updating is worth reading, and is interesting and makes u feel as though your there with the way they deliver them. These UPDATES are lifeless and boring. Then u give an excuse when u should be seeking a solution. These are outrageous comments. Why don't you try having a go at updating? Keep going Rod and Dana, I for one think the updates are great I agree 100% Pelham Boy, I would also love to see Mr McCool even attempt an informative, humorous, clever and FAIR update himself. Alas I fear though that Blonde's great reputation would go down the tubes if this was allowed to happen. Obviously from doing updates in the past myself, I can appreciate the difficult conditions at times to even get a constant internet connection and the distance that the press are put away from the action at most casino's. So congratulations slickid at your marvelous constructive criticisms at 2 guys who are giving you a great free and interactive service.

As a matter of fact l could probably go to the local graveyard, dig up a couple of corpse's, give then a laptop and a Vodafone Dongle, with an SAS assault course to cover to get to the press room from the cardroom and they would be better updates than the ones you have been involved in. You need to get of your high horse! I made a comment as to how l found the updates, but this is the last comment l will make on Blonde (NICEY NICEY).

Jen was involved in a big coup to build her stack back up. Facing a raise from late position from the stripily shirted Michael Bolger, Jen re-raised allin but found Jim Reid behind her also moving in. Jen's exact words were a quiet "oops." Michael showed his A-8 and passed, and Jim showed his inevitable big hand of K-K, Jen tabling the highly dominated 6-6. The flop came 3-9-8-5 to give Jen a few more outs in the form of a gutshot but a blank 3 on the river sent the brave young lady crashing to the rail. Jen is understandably quite dejected at the moment and babbling things about donking off, but she has played well in a strong field, and once we have a moment, we will force some whiskey down her, and make her see reason, in that yet again she has done herself proud and run deep in a big event. Well played Jen! Here is Jim Reid stacking up his ill-gotten (well maybe not but we're allowed a little Jen bias in this sad moment) gains.

Fabio Esposito ("the little Italian guy" a la Words Of Woody) was "pissed off" with Woody for "outplaying him" in an earlier hand, and as a result had raised Woody's big blind from the button four times in a row.

Jim Reid took little time to call with his Ahrt Kh, and Farbod showed his frustration fist-clench style as he turned over his dominated As Th. The board came 4-K-T-8-4, meaning, since Jim's enormous stack more than consumed that of Farbod, that Javed Farbod is out in 11th to the congratulations, hugs and handshakes from his assembled supporters on the rail... 10 remained at this point but any suggestion that this would mean a laborious drawn out process as the players tried to outlast each other was shattered soon afterwards. Rob Garfield raised to 25k from mid position (5k/10k/500)on Joe Grech's big blind... "He loves your blind!" exclaimed Nik Persaud, possibly cheekily trying to encourage a little action to boost his chances of making the final table...possibly. He needn't have worried as Karim Louis called from the small blind, and Joe felt obliged to call the extra 15k for value and did. The flop came an action packed Jc Qc Kc. Karim now moved allin for what was Rob entire stack of 150-200k. Rob stood up and rubbed his forehead as he tried to make a decision... Eventually...HE CALLED! Karim showed Jd Js for bottom set whilst Rob showed Ac 9d for a gutshot, nut flush draw and gutshot royal flush draw. All eyes were on the Dena as she flipped over the turn which was the 9c, meaning Rob was now in the driver's seat with the nut flush. The river fell the ....9s though, which meant Rob's flush was now redundant, ruined on the river by Karim's splendid and final-table-bubble-bursting full house! What an exciting culmination to today's play! As the players were now reduced to the final 9, this brought an immediate end to proceedings. We have some photos of the final drama to share with you, which will be appearing shortly and we will be passing out accurate chip counts for the final 9 players any time now...

He looked absolutely gutted in Luton last year when he held K-J on a K-2-K-2-3 board and ended up bubbling the final table as Warren Wooldridge held K-3.

Thewy must have gone for a curry at the break! He is on such sick form, good luck pal. Best of luck to Jim Read to, great game he has and i'd love to see him and Thewy HU. Title: Re: Bluesq.com GUKPT Brighton Day 2: Interactive Post by: tikay on January 20, 2008, 11:45:21 AM Great Updates, we doff our collective caps to Dana & the Cat for such superb work at what has been, technically, one of the most awkward & demanding Updating gigs ever, with Server issues, & the very long trek between Cardroom & Press Room. And big thanks to Lord Raab for his unstinting help with Chip Counts, using the Patented Raaby System of Player Cards. And what a show Jen put up! Now established as Britain's best Female player, she must be very near the top of the list of best British Player, male or female. Most of us were gutted she busted out so deep, after playing such terrific poker, & Julian told me this morning that her exit hand, in which he narrowly prevailed, (it was about even money post-flop) was bittersweet for him, because Jen & Thewy Heads-Up would have been the match-up of the century for all of us in blonde. One wonders who'd been favourite between those two. But we still have a terrific Final in store, & from blonde, we wish all of them well. I'd quite like to see Thewy & Jim Read get Heads-Up, as they are both personal friends & top blokes, but whoever wins this will have done well. I am down there today with a Camera Crew, thanks to Blue Square, & hopefully we can get some nice interviews with a few of the Finalists. Good Luck to all of them. And that goes for Dana & Junglecat, too, who thoroughly deserved the support many of you you displayed yesterday.
