Title: BlueSq.com GUKPT Thanet: Day 1A - Interactive Post by: NoflopsHomer on October 15, 2008, 07:19:51 PM "And in the blue corner, from parts unknowns..."
So if Thanet was in a wrestling match with the other GUKPT locations, I'm pretty sure that would be the first eight words of it's description. We're in Kent, (Has an International Airport dontchaknow?). Near Ramsgate (famous for the infamous sheep scandal), Margate (famous for the Andrew Marr scandal) and Westgate-On-Sea (famous for discovering wood can float) as well as Broadstairs, (the first place to accomodate the portlier class of people into getting to the first floor and above) and Cliffs Edge (...) Thanet will surely be the unknown quality to this year's GUKPT, as in, unknown if anyone could find it on the map. Being scheduled against the Boylepoker Irish Poker Open that's going on this weekend across the sea, which is expected to get over 1,000 runners, this event may find it tough not being easy to travel to from anywhere other than London. And I make that latter point on the back of a 6 hour journey here from Leeds. Thanet is this year's Plymouth, a new location albeit slightly out of the way, trying to make a name for itself and join a club that seems pretty elite with it's members. Last month, Tony Cascarino was the winner, though helped when Ali Mallu pressed the 'implosion' switch rather than the 'explosion' one. But who'll be the first holder of the prestigious 'Thanet GUKPT winner' title? You'll have to tune in from 2pm tomorrow to find out.

Title: Re: BlueSq.com GUKPT Thanet: Day 1A - Interactive Post by: NoflopsHomer on October 16, 2008, 02:47:29 PM 'One hand Rumit' has lasted, erm...one hand.
It was a can you get away from Kings preflop hand. Najam Qureshi raised to 175 preflop and Dave Barraclough reraised to 600, Rumit called the 600 from the big blind and now Qureshi reraised to 2,675 which Barraclough flat-called. Action back to Rumit and after a minutes thought he moved all-in. Qureshi called and Barraclough ended up folding his Qs Qc. Rumit said as he saw his Kd Kc dominated by Ahrt Aspades, "It's ok, I have an off-peak return ticket, it's cheaper if I can get home by 4pm." Could he have got away after the reraise and call to 2,675?

Thewy flipped Td 9h but was outkicked by his opponent's Kh 9c.

I think Woodley checked because Dave was going to shoot laser beams from his eyes at Woodley if the latter made anysort of bet.

With around 500 in the pot by the 8h Jh 6d flop, he bet 500 and both 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) and an unnamed limper folded. Henry Browne, however, a Luton regular and online qualifier for this, called. The turn was the 3d and Browne checked. Goodwin announced 1k and Browne insta-called. With the 1k chip still in his hand, hovering over the felt, Goodwin said, "Can I put mine in first? I take it you're calling anything on the river." Browne once more checked the 8s river and this time Goodwin bet 2k. As quickly as he called the bet on the turn, Browne passed. "Whew, thank God for that," said Goodwin and showed Qh 9h for the busted flush draw. Joy, he folded!

A clubless turn and river and he's up to about 9k, while Hoivold is down to around 4.5k

Board: 6d 7s 6h Jc Qc Deck: "So sick." Mr Friedman, who had been standing ready to leave since the chips went in, sat back down.

Board: a spadetastic 3d 3s 9s Jd 7s Most unlucky, except for Mr Lee.

He'd given up after 3-betting A-8 vs Jerome (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=199) Bradpiece (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=199) when the latter called but then caught a Ad Qs 8s flop and proceeded to get it all-in against Jerome's Aspades Js. The Kh gave Bradpiece extra outs on the turn and Ks river was enough to leave Trickett with around 400 left. This all went in against Bradpiece with Qc Jc in good shape vs Js Ts but the Th was the first card out. Jerome is less Droopy and more Perky now. Title: Re: BlueSq.com GUKPT Thanet: Day 1A - Interactive Post by: NoflopsHomer on October 16, 2008, 05:09:41 PM There's a min-raise to 300 and a call before Pete Singleton reraises to 1,300 from the cutoff leaving himself 3,400 behind. The button then pushes for just over 6,000 and it's passed back round Singleton who thinks for a moment before passing his Ac Kc face up, he's rewarded by the button showing Ad Ahrt.
Title: Re: BlueSq.com GUKPT Thanet: Day 1A - Interactive Post by: danafish on October 16, 2008, 05:25:35 PM James Akenhead has busted Paul Hardy, who moved in on the turn of a 4c 4d 9h Th board. Eventually Akenhead called, although he didn't really look like he wanted to, but he was rewarded by Hardy turning over Aspades 2s for more or less nothing at all, while Akenhead could boast the pair-licious 3s 9s. An irrelevant 5s on the river, and the chips were Akenhead's.
--------------- Similarly OUT is Andrew Wakerall, who got his chips in with 8c 6c on a 6s Ac Tc flop and failed to make his flush against Paul Mcintyre's Aspades 8s. Title: Re: BlueSq.com GUKPT Thanet: Day 1A - Interactive Post by: danafish on October 16, 2008, 05:30:34 PM Meanwhile Nik Persaud has been enjoying some good fortune, betting out 2k on the river of 7d Aspades Th 7h 4s board with 5k in the pot already and less than 2k behind, and thus inducing a call from James Price. "Ace jack?" asked Nik sa he flipped over Tc Td for the full house. "Yes," said a dejected Price, and admitted that if Nik had shoved for his whole stack on the river, he would probably have folded. "i thought so," said Nik, "That's why I opted for the small gay raise." Good to know.

No help and Yo-yo is off to the town of El Busto (which does actually exist in Spain, incidentally).
JJ Hazan is also out. Looked like Aces cracked by Tony Cascarino's Q-T. Pete Singleton has doubled up with a set of fours on an eight-high board against Alex 'AlexMartin' Martin's A-8.

He has just doubled up, getting it in I believe on the turn of a 3h Tc 9c Kh 9h board holding Kd 9d against Martyn Robinson's Qs Qd. Jerome now up to around 20k and at liberty to resume hibernating, while the unfortunate Robinson is rather short.

He shoved his last 2k or so across the line on the turn of a 9c Qs 9h 2s 4d board, but got no callers and upped his meagre stack slightly to around 5k, still munching on a lollipop. To Gab: He says hi back, and he can't come to the party because even if he's short he's still going to be making final table. Re. Nandos: I recommend a half chicken, plenty of extra extra hot sauce on the side, and the ratatouille. Mmm. Thanks for the update, even though I guess it's going to be the last one for today! P.s. I will most likely go for exactly what you just said in Nando's and will make sure to let you know how awesome it was eating it. Im out of here now, thanks for the grand updates and much love to all.

I shall do, he's on a very tough table with Dave Colclough, James Akenhead and Jerome Bradpiece, but he is definitely holding his own. I saw him reraise James Akenhead preflop and make James lay it down. He's now up to 19.5k. Go, my 2%!

Marc Goodwin and Nigel Smith's "I Think There's Something Wrong With Me" (http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=22110&g2_serialNumber=1) Title: Re: BlueSq.com GUKPT Thanet: Day 1A - Interactive Post by: NoflopsHomer on October 16, 2008, 08:55:50 PM Double up for the GUKPT's form man, Nik Persaud. His jacks winning the raise against Martin Holmes Ac Qs, the sweat not nearly so tough after the first card out was the Js followed by Aspades 7h 2c 5h.
(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=22114&g2_serialNumber=1) Meanwhile next to him, Andreas Hoivold has been doing well to recover after his earlier knockdown against Julian Thew, scooping up a pot having missed a big draw with Jc 9c on a 4c Qh 9s Tc x board, third pair was still good however though. He's not a big fan of Thanet though. "It's like Hell," said the Norwegian, "...Hell on toast."

Joaquim was rising to leave when the flop came down 5c Ks Kc, but sat right back down when the turn came the 9s. River unimportantly the 2h. Title: Re: BlueSq.com GUKPT Thanet: Day 1A - Interactive Post by: NoflopsHomer on October 16, 2008, 09:05:17 PM Mikey Tse has doubled up through Jim Reid with Kings against Tens.
El Blondie has also doubled up, a lucky escape with 6s 6c against Martyn Robinson's 8h 8c after the board came out 9h 7d 4h Td...8s Colclough now up to around 12k.

Woodley min-raised and Alex defended with Kd 9d. The flop came Ks-x-x and Alex check/called a flop bet before both players checked the Qs turn. On a blank, non-draw making river, Alex bet out 2,800 and Woodley raised to 9,600. "His hand is either queens or air and he's going to have air a lot more of the time." Alex called and Woodley mucked. Title: Re: BlueSq.com GUKPT Thanet: Day 1A - Interactive Post by: action man on October 16, 2008, 09:32:45 PM gogogogo alex

Not too many eyebrows were raised when he flipped Ac Jc saying, "Can you beat the nuts?"
The real surprise was the fact that the overcall came from a player holding Qc 9c for the second nuts, which makes you wonder how much value Friedman could've extracted from this hand.

Down to apparently just 300 chips not so long ago, Tim (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=433) Flanders (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=433) is now up to the heady sweet heights of around 30k, largely as a result of a massive triple-up, his nines up against queens and A-K, he spiked a nine to win a monster pot and put him above average for the first time today. Doesn't he look happy?

He called all in to Kristoffer Huynh's (brother of Kiem) reraise, and found himself racing.
Huynh: 9d 9h Evans: Ac Jc Board: Qc 5s 7c 8s 9c Evans seemed to think he'd lost at this point and attempted to leave without raking in the chips, until it was pointed out to him that he'd made a flush. "Phew," he said, clutching his heart, and went off to the break much happier.

Getting it in with Ad Jc against Mateyboy's Ahrt 4c, he was ahead all the way down the 7s 9s Js 8d 8c board, and is now sitting precariously on 5.5k.
Title: Re: BlueSq.com GUKPT Thanet: Day 1A - Interactive Post by: NoflopsHomer on October 16, 2008, 10:24:03 PM River of the day
Spencer Lawrence raises to 1,500 from UTG and Dave Penly calls with 4-3. The flop turned up 6c 5h 4h and Dave check/raised what he felt was a weakish 1,800 bet to around 5,000. Lawrence then moved all-in for an additional 13,000 or so and Dave called thinking he needed to hit against an overpair. Lawrence though was holding Th 8h and behind to the pair, though Dave no doubt would've preferred to see the overpair as Lawrence would never be drawing dead on the turn with his flush draw and gutshot. The turn put Lawrence in the driving seat with the Td, but the river was the 2d and Dave made his straight eliminated the WSOP triple finalist and going up to 60k himself.

Turn: Qc River: 4d All is well until the table is broken before the next hand, when Morgan realises that he has been short-changed - it looks like the dealer counted one of Morgan's stacks of 500 chips as Browne's, and so Morgan's stack is around 5k short. I believe it was deemed too late to do anything about it though...

Title: Re: BlueSq.com GUKPT Thanet: Day 1A - Interactive Post by: NoflopsHomer on October 16, 2008, 11:03:22 PM Bizarre hand goes against Marc Goodwin, he raises to 2,100 preflop. Bets 3,600 on a Qc 6h 4h flop and then 8,000 on an Ac turn before the river goes check check where he finds his opponent called him with Ad Jh on the flop.
'Exasperation' would probably best describe Marc Goodwin's mood. Snoopy's table got broken and he moved to Goodwin's table sitting with Mark Friedman and James Akenhead. A superstitious beagle went and actually got his own chair from the table before and moved over to the new one...

Too easy, that pun. Apologies. Jerome Bradpiece made it some k from the cutoff and Cheryl went over the top of him from the button for another 4.2k.

The river is the Aspades, and Hoivold checks with Woodley firing out a hefty 4,525 and says, "What you going to put me on now?" leaving the Norwegian looking perplexed. He thinks for ages before whispering, "Ahrt 7h...? So sick..."
(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=22132&g2_serialNumber=1) Woodley has remained quietly and motionless for a couple of minutes but now calls for a clock. Dena comes over and tells Andreas he has one minute to make a decision for a significant portion of his chips and you can see the cogs are working as opposed to many players who 'Hollywood' it up these days when never looking like their calling. "I can't put you on a hand," declares the former EPT Dortmund champion, but he still looks reluctant to push any more chips into the pot. After about 15 seconds though, the decision is made and Hoivold, who looked like he was going to fold pretty much the whole time, decides instead to call. Woodley sinks back in his chair a little, "Good call," and proceeds to muck his cards. Hoivold turns over Qd 6c. (http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=22134&g2_serialNumber=1) "It was a good bet," says Persaud sympathetically, "Not a weakish, silly 3.2k that I would've bet, but a full-on proper bet and there's a lot of hands you could have, I reallly thought you might have A-8 there." Title: Re: BlueSq.com GUKPT Thanet: Day 1A - Interactive Post by: danafish on October 16, 2008, 11:13:04 PM Dave Colclough and Elliot Peterman made it as far the turn of a Ts Tc Qh 2h board before Colclough got his chips in - he check-raised all in to a 3.2k bet from Peterman. Colclough turned over Kh Qc, but Peterman was holding Td 6h, and the 2c river couldn't save El Blondie, who is now El Outie.

Title: Re: BlueSq.com GUKPT Thanet: Day 1A - Interactive Post by: danafish on October 16, 2008, 11:42:22 PM Shortly before the break, Mr James Akenhead made what would be his last move of the tournament. Michael Moore (NOT the Michael Moore of TV Nation and other provocative documentary works) limped in, as did Snoopy on the button. Akenhead then moved all in from the big blind, and most unexpectedly, Moore called. Less unexpectedly, Snoopy folded.
Moore: 9c 9d Akenhead: the not-so-hot Qc 4c Board: 2c 5s Jd Ks 9s And he's a goner. Title: Re: BlueSq.com GUKPT Thanet: Day 1A - Interactive Post by: NoflopsHomer on October 16, 2008, 11:44:07 PM Matthew McKinlay is a goner. His Ahrt Td shoveaments were no match for Mikey Tse's Aspades Ac on a blankety blank board.
Martyn Bebb is also out, he couldn't beat Sami Yusuf's Kd Qd on a 6s Kc 9s flop with 7s 4s despite additional help on the 7h turn due to a blank river and then his A-9 was no match for Kiem Huynh's pocket eights. Players are on a short break and they'll be playing one more level or down to two tables, whichever is quicker.

He shoved under the gun, but apparently Andreas Hoivold didn't notice and attempted to raise to 3k in mid position. The floor was called over and it was ruled that he could either call for a few k more or fold and give up the bet he put in. He called. Delahunt: Td Tc Hoivold: "I have one overcard." Qh 8h Board: 9h 3c Aspades Qd Jh Poor Mr Delahunt, what a dreadful way to bust. Mr Hoivold was most apologetic. Title: Re: BlueSq.com GUKPT Thanet: Day 1A - Interactive Post by: NoflopsHomer on October 17, 2008, 12:25:19 AM Michael Moore is on a roll, he's just knocked out Marc Goodwin with 9c 9h against Ad Kd after the board came Ac Jh 4c 9d 8s. Probably will be the chip leader tonight the way he's going.
I suppose tomorrow a few of his friends in the stands will be asking him, while he dances combing his hair, "Tell me Moore, tell me Moore, did you get very far?" Title: Re: BlueSq.com GUKPT Thanet: Day 1A - Interactive Post by: danafish on October 17, 2008, 12:27:59 AM Dreadfulness for Snoopy.
He's still in, but there are many possible worlds in which he is now sitting on a workable stack, while in this reality he is still on a very dangerous 14k or so. Michael Moore made it 3.5k from the cutoff and Snoopy shoved for 13,425 from the small blind. After some brief deliberation, Moore called, and was dominated. Moore: Aspades Qs Snoopy: Ad Kh Board: an incredibly exciting but ultimately split-a-licious Td Qh Jh 7h Kc Bad luck, the Snoopster.

Title: Re: BlueSq.com GUKPT Thanet: Day 1A - Interactive Post by: danafish on October 17, 2008, 01:05:49 AM Some last-minute craziness from Mr Woodley, determined not to come back for Day 2 with a short stack.
He went all in, claiming he'd only looked at the one card. Michael Moore called and turned over Tc Ts, but Woodley asked if he could wait until the board had been dealt before turning over his hand. Dena attempted to protest, but Moore didn't mind so they proceeded that way. Board: 7c Kh Ks 9s Th Woodley turns over... ...Busted Ad Ahrt. Ouch.
