Are there any girls in DTD this weekend   ;whistle;

Tom Middleton FTMFW

GL Fran too :)

Just in time to see a big pot develop between Tom Middleton and Darren Moy, both starting Day 2 with about 50K stacks.

The flop of 5c 6c 7c saw a bet and a re-raise - followed by a call.

The Ac on the turn didn't halt their enthusiasm, and a bet by Darren was called by Tom.

The Kc brought some smiles and raised eyebrows from those around the table.  Darren bet into the pot which was now around the 25K mark - only to see Tom push all-in.  Darren went into the tank, asked for a count, and then decided to lay down his cards.  

We can only wonder at what they both had...

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=18664&g2_serialNumber=1)

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=18667&g2_serialNumber=1)

Darren thinking about the hand, and what might have been.

lol Tom.

Tom's at it again.

He opened in middle position to 4,200 - Chris Bruce raised it up to 11,000 and Tom instapushed for his remaining 40,000.

Chris thinks for a while, tells Tom he doesn't think he is that strong - and the calls with Ac Js.  Tom turned over 9d 9h

3c 7d 9s Ahrt 2c

Tom now has over 80K and has started the day in busy fashion.

Short stacked Martyn Reeve is out

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=18670&g2_serialNumber=1)

Alwyn (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=785) Powell (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=785) smiling after getting a re-raise all-in through without being looked up.

wiiiiiiiiiiiii.

ul Chris tho.

Rooks has added a few K to his stack in uncontested pot winnings

*cough*  I know - I don't count!!!!

3.15 on a sunday afternoon in a poker club in Nottingham ... and he wants norkage.

[ ] Jizz has a girlfriend

Good luck Tom Middleton. Met him in Vegas recently, Nice bloke and can play a bit too. Also good luck to monkey matt.

vinny

PLAYER DOWN

Short stacked Lee Naylor found the perfect hand for shoving in  Ks Kh

Chris (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=65) Bruce (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=65) made the call with  Aspades 6c

A flop of  5h 7c 8d was looking ominous even before the  4s duly arrived on the turn !!


Chris adds some 22k to his stack

Bad news for Rookie fans.

He's in the SB, and it's folded round to him.  He makes it 4,400 with the blinds 800/1,600 with 200 antes.

Mahmood Basharat in the BB called.

Kh 7c 3c

Rookie bet 5,300 on the flop and this was called by Mahmood.

The 8s turn saw Rookie check, and Mahmood bet 8,500.

After a short dwell, Rookie shoved the rest of his chips over the line (around 25K).  Mahmood calls very quickly and reveals 3h 3s for a flopped set.  Rookie turned over 6d 7s and was drawing dead.  

Mahmood doubles up to what looks like 80K+ and Rookie is down to about 5K.

Mahmood enjoys a cup of tea after his double up.

how's Ralph getting on please?

He's actually known as "little" Bash or Basher locally.

chippy count for Matt 1 and Matt 2 please  (one has a roundhead the other is a monkey)

Rooks is OUT

His last few K shove was called by Matt Tyler with 99

not what rooks wanted to see with 78 ...

So we are down a blondeite

I believe he's watching the Wimbledon final and thinking about a cold glass of something or other....

Monkey Matt has 125k
Matt Tyler about 68k

ty seat 5

Level up:

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=18673&g2_serialNumber=1)

Tom Middleton raises UTG and makes it 4,200.  Darren Moy to his left re-raises to 11,000.  It's folded back round to Tom who quickly folds.

It's getting personal between these two!

Maja Latchana has fallen.

His three pair no good against Danny Toffel's two pair:

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=18675&g2_serialNumber=1)

Danny happy with his life at the moment

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=18677&g2_serialNumber=1)

Mad for it Matt

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=18679&g2_serialNumber=1)

When you're running good, you're running good.  Madchester Matt reinforces the adage. 

Maurice (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=1388) Nicholson (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=1388) is happy to get it all in with  Kh Kd

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=18681&g2_serialNumber=1)

Especially when Matt turns over  Tc Th

Poker can be a cruel game, and the 6c 3d 7c 2c 4c board proved to be for Maurice who bows out.

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=18683&g2_serialNumber=1)

Matt continues to accumulate chips...

AMAZING HAND

Matt Tyler shoves 26k all in ... Sam Saville Barton is obliged to call in the BB with 88 ...

Matt sheepishly shows  Tc 4s

flop

 Th Td 8h

lots of oooohs and ahhhs there

Turn

 Ts

Lots of stunned looks on faces ...

Meaningless river of  Js

And Matt tyler is back to nearly 55k

Fran is on 48k

"I have only played 2 hands"

Tom Middleton and Darren Moy reignited their personal battle with bloody consequences.

A raise, re-raised all-in and called.

Tom Ahrt Js
Darren Ac Jh

A definite chop you'd think...

3h 9c 8h Qh 2h

Tom hits the nut flush and Darren can only shake his head as he graciously joins the other fallers at the rail.

lol, thats just how Tom rollz.

The spoils to the victor.

Dylan Herbert's big blind has come under attack form fellow Welshman Chris Bushell.  After a long dwell and some goading by Chris, Dylan passed his hand.  Chris didn't show.  But he was happy with himself

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=18687&g2_serialNumber=1)

We're down to two tables now. 

of the 1,190,000 chips in play ... 250k of them are sat in front of Monkey Matt

He has so many chips that they've decided to change the smaller denomination chips for larger ones.  Matt 'Jamie (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=839) Gold (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=839)' Doyle complained that it doesn't look as impressive any more.

Impressive? Has he seen himself in that hat?

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=18689&g2_serialNumber=1)

oi, I bought him that!

Shameless "I have horrible taste" brag

Chris (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=65) Bruce (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=65) raises to 8,000 and John (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=2110) Cann (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=2110) re-raises all-in to 25K.

Chris thinks it over, and then calls.  He has John comfortably covered.

Chris Qc 9s
John Aspades Kd

4c 3d 7d 4s Js

John doubles up to over 50K

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=18691&g2_serialNumber=1)

There'll be a break at the end of this level and we'll get detailed chip counts then.  In the meantime, if there's anyone in particular you want to know about - just give us a shout.

Monkey matt is using his chips as the weapon that they are ... re popping any raise and every limp to full effect, Marcus Bebb Jones is playing well though and i expect fireworks soon enough.

Post of forever IMO

Danny Toffel, Alwyn (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=785) Powell (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=785) and Neil Rutter see a flop cheaply.

7s 2s 8s

Danny is first to act and bets 5K.

Alwyn, thinks for just a few seconds before folding.

Neil think a little longer before turning over the Ahrt 2d.

Danny takes in the pot and shows Aspades 3h.  

The larger stacks are quietly stealing here and there whilst the shorter stacks who can't afford to make a wrong step are waiting for a position to get their chips in the middle.

I doubt they'll allow fireworks in here - but you never know.

Rain stops play at Wimbledon.  We don't have such problems here due to the presence of a roof.

Remember earlier on in the thread, I said about the inevitable slowing up ay 17/18 players .... well we have been on 17 players now for a level and a half !!

Another re-raise all-in takes down a non-insignificant pot, this time for Brian Reid

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=18693&g2_serialNumber=1)

GL to monkey 'the hat' matt

;iagree; :)up

Marcus (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=1329) Bebb-Jones (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=1329) takes a 35K pot down against Matt (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=273) Doyle (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=273) on a

7s 4d Th Ac 6h board

Matt's 12K bet on the river was called by Marcus whose Ahrt Tc was miles ahead of Matt's Qd Jd

Matt's still smiling though

(http://www.knitlist.com/00gift/baby-hat-with-leaf-edging-on-a-baby.jpg)

Chip count for Dylan Herbert and Chris Bushell please.

Matt's still smiling, but he's lost another 30K, this time to Brian Reid.

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=18695&g2_serialNumber=1)

Matt's rivered two pair no match for Brian's flopped straight.

chip count for dave clayton please

who do you all fancy to take it down!

My moneys on marcus, come on big man, bring home the bacon

Break now, I have sent the mug boshi for chip counts

Dave Clayton was out 18th

Another genius move by Rob Yong :D

GL to Matt "twisting my mellow monkey" Doyle

Chris Bruce 36k

Dylan Herbert - 93K
Chris Bushell - 42K

Danny Toffel - 100K
Fran Creed - 37K


Official counts coming soon

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=18697&g2_serialNumber=1)

Official counts coming soon...

Good news for Fran fans.

With a little over 35K she moves all-in with Ad 5s.  Sam Barton-Savile calls with  Ahrt Ts, and he has Fran covered by a few thousand.

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=18699&g2_serialNumber=1)

The flop is kind, and the turn kinder for Fran and the river makes no difference and Fran doubles up to over 70K whilst Sam is down to dust.

And then very next hand Sam got his dust in with  Aspades 6s only to run into the dominating  Ac Qs of Chris Bushell

Sam Saville Barton out 17th ...

Just got back.

Lets fkin gogogogogogogogoogkin go Middyyyyyyyyy and Fran, 1 timeeeeee. gl Matt too.

Gogogogogo Fran

What are the blinds/antes?

Marcus Bebb-Jones is OUT.

All-in pre-flop with Aspades Qc against Tom Middleton's  Js Jc.

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=18701&g2_serialNumber=1)

The board failed to improve either hand, and Tom wins a very large pot.

Eaaaaaasssssssyyyyyyyyy   FRAN!!!!

Here are the chip counts from the break (things have obviously changed since)

Table 14

Chris Bruce 35,700
Matt Doyle 235,000
Brian Reid 140,800
John Cann 44,100
Tom Middleton 105,300

Danny Toffel 100,900
Sam Savile-Barton 40,700
Mojid Khan 69,200
Alwyn Powell 27,800
Neil Rutter 33,800

These updates are interactive.  To prove that, we have a message from Fran to her Dad.  "Can you make sure the kids are bathed/showered?"

:)up

Yeah come on Frans Dad ... she aint gonna pay you unless you do your chores ;)

Hiren Kanabar re-raises Neil Rutter's 11K raise all-in making it 35K in total.

Neil dwells a while, and then folds showing 9d. 

Hiren shows Kh Ks, and Neil breathes a big sigh of relief.  He was close to calling, but I think he's happy he didn't!

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=18705&g2_serialNumber=1)

Hiren wishes Neil had called.

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=18707&g2_serialNumber=1)

Neil thankful he didn't call.

Most of the chips in play are on one table - most of them in front of Matt Doyle, Brian Reid and Tom Middleton.

kev,

Chris Bruce raises to 11K, and is called by John Cann.

Tom Middleton spots and opportunity and moves all-in, and he has the other two covered.

Chris folds, as does John.

SNOPPY,get it changed quick, we cant have players moving countries with the price of petrol as it is!!

croeso Jenna

Gl to Matt & Matt,Fran and Chris & all the welsh lads

Some chip counts (approximate):

Matt Doyle - 170K
John Cann - 85K
Tom Middleton - 170K
Matt Tyler - 120K
Chris Bruce - 55K

wiii sick squeeze!

170k, sennnnnnnd.

Hows Fran doing?

Fran Creed - 50K
Dylan Herbert - 85K
Danny Toffel - 88K
Mojid Khan - 73K
Alwyn Powell - 63K
Neil Rutter - 120K
Brian Reid - 60K
Chetan Patel - 60K

The average stack is a little under 90K.  However, most of the chips are on one table...

Chris Bruce has just knocked out Chetan Patel... all the chips fly in on the flop of a SB BB coup  4s Jd 7s

Chetans  Jc 2c was not in the best of shape against Bruce's  Jh Qd

and although the  7h came on the turn offering split pot possibilities, the river  Qh sent the chips to Chris Bruce and we are down to 12

John Cann (with Welsh tatoo on his left-arm) raises to 14K from the button.

Tom Middleton re-raises to 55K.

John folds and shows the Aspades.

Brian is fairly chuffed at the outcome of that hand

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=18731&g2_serialNumber=1)

This could be a very late finish tonight

bless they will be soo tired

Dylan Herbert raises to 18K.

Danny Toffel re-raises all-in to 83K.  Before the hand they are both about level.

Dylan says that he thinks Danny is making a move based on previous hands.  He also says he does have a good hand.  After a dwell he reluctantly folds.  

Danny shows Ad.

Bubble NEARLY burst there

John Cann Raised all in on the button and Tom Middleton insta calls on the sb

Cann has AK v Toms AQ

First card out is a Queen ... but a rivered King sent the chips the way of the Welshman he is now on 140k

Middleton down to 90k

ffffffffs, ridic cooler.

what is the chips like at the moment?!*

Might be a nail biting tourney but they're all missing the tennis!!! What a match

WOW at the tennis.

No one was missing out.  The poker sort of stopped during the end of the tie-break.  Amazing stuff.

Now back to the poker.

any chance of an answer kinboshi or kev ..................
is brian a preston lad and tell tyler and fran good luck

gl matt,matt fran

BIG HAND.

Mojid Khan pushes all-in for about 60K UTG, and is called in the BB by Danny Toffel who has Mojid covered.

Danny Aspades Kh
Mojid Ac Td

The board speaks for itself

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=18733&g2_serialNumber=1)

Mojid gratefully doubles up and Danny is philosophical about it all and still manages to smile.

how is john cann doing at the moment?

r we still on bubble?

Fran Creed raises Neil Rutter's BB to 20K.  Fran has 40K back, and Neil knows his decision is for the whole lot.  Neil has Fran covered comfortably, but decides to fold.

He shows a 6d and says he had a pair of sixes.

Fran showed Jd Jc.

Still 12 players in.  It's still hand for hand.  It's still very tense.

Time for a break.

10 minute break, We'll endeavour to get chip counts and answer the other questions.

 Players now on a break and still no sign of the bubble bursting !!

I am sitting in between the 2 tables watching both ... its easy with my eyes ... and seriously play is slower than a 4 x 100m relay team consisting of Me, Tighty, Matt Tyler and Ironside !!!

GL to Fran, Matt and Matt.  Surely one of them can win this?

  london 2012 ftw i would pay 2 see this

Matt Tyler raises 24K, Chris Bruce moves all-in for 82.7K.

Matt has Chris covered, but if he calls and loses he will be short.  He has a long think and then says "this is probably a bad pass".

He shows Aspades Qh.  Chris didn't show.

Bad pass or good pass?

We haven't got exact chip counts, but we'll try and bring counts for everyone ASAP.

Depends how much of his stack hes put in imo.

How much was he left with after he folded?


ty

ty god ... Bubble burst


boshi has the details

against him bad pass ................matt goes with his gut instinct chris tends to lose prospective on hand values this late stage

Mojit Khan called in the SB and Alwyn Powell in the BB shoved all-in for 23,700.

Mojit dwelled for an eternity... and then calls.

Neil now has over 200K and is feeling buoyant.  "I will win this!" he declared:

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=18741&g2_serialNumber=1)

Not much change in the counts.  Chips are moving back and forth, but small pots each time. 

Raise and fold, or limp see a flop, bet and fold.

Hopefully something will happen soon.

I'll pass on the messages from the Reid family.

well done Matt & Tom

Come on Brian Reid win lots of money for my bessi lol

We have a hand!!

Chris Bruce and Neil Rutter involved.

The board is

Th 2c Qs Kd 6c and it's checked to the river.

On the river, Chris bets 24K.

Neil raises 48K.

Chris moves all-in and after a long dwell, Neil calls.

Chris shows Kc Qc for two pair, and Neil has Ad 6h for a pair on the river.

Chris doubles up and Neil is now the short-stack.  We'll get chip counts in a moment.

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=18785&g2_serialNumber=1)

nh

Another hand.

All three see the flop for 30K.

5s 5c 6d

check-check-check

Qs

check-check-check

4s

check, Brian Reid raises to 40K, Chris Bruce folds and Neil Rutter goes into the tank.

After a few minutes, the clock is called and Neil Rutter calls.

Brian Ahrt Jh
Neil 7c 6c

Neil takes the pot but is unhappy about the clock being called on him.  

Players are now on an end of level break .....

Chris and Neil are both on around 300K, with Brian on about 600K.

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=18787&g2_serialNumber=1)

So at the current level there is 28.5K in the pot with the blinds and antes.

If all three limp/check to see a flop there's 52.5K in there.

Big Pot time.

Unraised pre-flop.

Flop Aspades Ks 3c

Bet from Chris (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=65) Bruce (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=65), call from Brian Reid.

8s

Same again - there's now 120K in the pot.

9h river

Chris (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=65) Bruce (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=65) bets 100K and Brian calls.

Chris has 7s 3s for the flush
Brian has Ad 9c for two pair.

We think the chip lead has now moved over to Chris along with that pot.

Pre-flop action between the new chip leader Chris (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=65) Bruce (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=65) and Brian Reid.

An all-in by Chris is instantly called by Brian.

Chris - Ah 4d
Brian - Qs 6c

Qh Ts 5d puts Brian into the lead

Ac on the turn puts Chris back in front

The 9s on the river is a blank, and Brian Reid is out and finishes in 3rd place for £4,819.

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=18789&g2_serialNumber=1)

We're now heads up.

Chris (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=65) Bruce (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=65) has a chip lead of something like 2 to 1 over Neil Rutter, but things can change very quickly.

cHIP COUNT NOW IS

Chris Bruce 820k
Neil Rutter  380k

go chris

8s 7d Ts flop.

check-check

Jh

Bet of 40K - called.

8h

Neil bets 16K

Chris raises 100K - Neil calls.

Chris 9s 4h
Neil 9d 6h

Both turned the straight and it's chop chop!

(http://blondepoker.com/forum/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=34951.0;attach=21012;image)

Chris takes down another pot, and the count is now very one-sided.

Chris has about 950K to Neil's 250K

Chris now has about 1,000,000 - and he's relentlessly applying the pressure.

all quiet?

Did they find where the bar is?

Great updating guys, Thanks.

Is this hand correct?

If so come on Chris polish off the slowroller!

no flush then?

Chris has been slowly chipping away at Neil's stack.

Some of the crowd are on the pitch....they think it's all over... it is now!

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=18791&g2_serialNumber=1)

Chris's 9-kicker wins the last hand for him and a cool  £12,495.

Neil Rutter finishes second for a not too shabby £7,318.

Possibly the most one sided heads up i have ever witnessed, im sure Chris will post on here in the next day or 2 ... but if he has ever earned an easier £5k (the difference between 1st and 2nd) then i would be amazed.

Congrats to Chris though, one of the games Gents and a top bloke.

well done lads

N1 Chris 10% is ok

well done chris.

Here's our winner - Mr Chris Bruce (and his lucky card protector, Moshi).

Awesome Chris, VWP.

And tx to Kev and Kin - great updating.

Was refreshing to see this played out to a true finish as well ... no talk of a chipcount deal at any stage on the final table.


[  ] Trigg is good at predicting chops

wd Chris, thanks Kev and Kin.

well done chris nice result!

Delighted to have got a good result in the Monthly DTD comp.

Thanks to DTD staff and dealers for hosting another well structured competition with lots of room for ducking and diving.

I did run well especially once we got heads up.

This was made easier though by an opponent who never once re raised me pre flop ?

Sorry Matt for taking  you out again at the final table.

I will try to do a quick blog for any one who is interested in the next few days.

Cheers Kev & Kinboshi for the updates.

Mosh may be available to hire for any players who need  to change thier luck at the Poker tables.

Thanks for the well wishes, much appreciated. Very well played Brucie, your game is superb mate and a deserved win.

aye, well played mate - good result. if i was to pick one hole in your game its that you don't use enough speech play at the table, you're far too quiet! ;whistle;

thanks to all staff at DTD for well run tourney as always and to Kev & Kin for the updates, next time though i'm changing my name if drawn at a table with b4matt :D

now if you'll excuse me i have some melons to twist.............

n1 Chris.  You played v well on day1, i run bad having 1 of the probs 10 ppl who can play on my direct left.

Standard not as good as you'd expect for a £300 then?

Pretty dreadful standard of play.  So I saw from my small sample size anyway.   Maybe I just had a soft table but everyone i've spoke to is of the same opinion.

Sounds like a standard £300 then

fyp
