  pm trigg and hope he wakes up b4 it starts

Please, yes!! Go Moorman's dad!! Gl to BullitPete, Jaffacake and Kaz as well (and i suppose gl to moorman though i'm rooting for his dad to bust him)

imagine the banter if they got HU

"remember son i taught you everything"

"yes dad, but when i was 7 i cheack raised you all in with air and said "in your eye" - "remember you grounded me"

surely floppy can come up with some inspired stars wars darh vader/luke skywalker stuff today!

Good afternoon from Manchester

68 left, and no doubt the usual frantic first few levels whilst the short-stacks get moving or get out.

One time, let the table re-draw give us Moorman 1 and 2 on the same table!

Table 4 ... expect Des Jonas to be raising every pot ... some tight players on that table.

Wow at 7 & 8 ....all the chips on those 2 tables !

I have a sneaky feeling Jeff Kimber could go deep in this.

outsider pick .. Des Jonas.

Robert Boon and Mr Perrins? Boony is a lunatic from what I've seen

players taking their seats, we'll be getting away on time

Saw Jeff Kimber on his way in, and we briefly discussed the table draw...he's expecting a tough day!

glgl moomins and gogogo jack powell

gl Paul E, Steve Holden & all blondes.

GOOD LUCK MR BO LE!!

Mickey Wernick knocks out Aaron Barry the second shortstack on the first hand

I watched Toby Lewis make it 3,100, Bahman Aghatabay make it 9,100 on the button and Toby push, instantly. Bahman passed, eventually

Michael Oakes doubles through Andy Middleton 99 v AK on a 8 10 J flop

Robert Boon is OUT raise, re-raise from Daniel Hook, push from Robert. Call from Daniel. AA v QQ, Queen on the flop for Daniel

christ table 7 is like one of the sickest UK tables I've ever seen.

glglglglgl toby

Haris Mohammed is OUT JJ v Ross Parkhill's 66, which setted on a rag flop

Kai Paulsen doubles through chip leader Chi Nguyen. Kai pushed on the button after two early limps, with AJ off and Chi called with KJ. AJ hit two pair on the flop

bo le and rory cambell from +75k stack
ramsey ajram from +25k stack

gl to dessy jonas too

Joey Lovelady or Andrew Teng?

Kai Paulsen or Jack Powell?

Ben Callinan or Matt Perrins?

Dominic Rossookh or George McDonald?

Chris Moorman or Simon Moorman?

Mickey Wernick or Surinder Sunar?

Jeff Kimber or Keir Ratcliff?


I take Neil Banks on sicko instinct for the shorties, Paul Gardener for the middling and Bo Le for the super stacks.

Bo Le and Toby Lewis. Kidzzz with potential.

 ;goodluck;  ;goodluck;  ;goodluck;

table 7 action, quite extraordinary action

Surinder Sunar made it 3,200 in the cut off, Alex Mah re-raised to 11,600 in the small blind with  Ad Qc as it happens

Surinder looked him up and down, and called deliberately and precisely

Flop  2h 2c 3d

Alex bets 14,000

Surinder asks Alex how much he has left and the answer is a full 35,000ish

He calls

Turn  7d

Alex pushes and Surinder calls instantly

His hand had me taking a double check, and oohs/ahhs/lala's from the table and rail , 8c 2s which of course holds and propels Surinder into a chip lead

Moomin Jr has had a tough start.

First his early position raise to 3,300 was reraise by George McDonald to 11,100 and had to let it go.

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=26202&g2_serialNumber=1)

A couple of hands later and Moomin raised UTG to 3,300 with David Maudlin and Alex Mah calling in the blinds.

Check to Moorman who bets 6,200. Maudlin makes it 16,200, Mah folds and Moorman called.

8h

Maudlin now quickly shoves for nearly 60k, a massive overbet. Moorman1 shakes his head and ends up folding.

Never mind, he can still go rowing with his dad.

(http://bp2.blogger.com/_CsqwvDZlNOY/SGNLR5M66gI/AAAAAAAAALs/bqjTDZibV18/s400/moomin.jpg)

Jack Powell has doubled up to about 60k. Didn't see the hand but I saw 2-2 in front of him and A-J next to Ross Parkhill, so I'm surmising that Powelll hit a set while Parkhill paired one of his hole cards.

Richard Sudworth has doubled up, he pushed over the top of Joey Lovelady's 3,300 raise with Tc Ts and found a caller in the big blind with Ad Kh. A helpful 8h 5s 3c 6d 8c board propelling him up to about 50k.

Moorman has been 3-bet again, this time he raised to 3,300 in midposition. Steve Holden called before Jason Lam made it 15,000 squeezing them both out of the pot.

Jeff Kimber raises in the small blind and Charles Ihle calls

Toby Lewis makes it 3,100 UTG

Bahman Aghatabay shoves next to speak for 30,000

Toby "I would have won, but can't call pre"

Updates on Lisa Vu pls

Banks wouldn't shake Bahman Aghatabay's hand at the end, because when the river came Aghatabay shouted, "BLANK! You piece of shit..." directed at no-one in particular but hardly the best thing to say.

Haha..

Joey Loveday doubles through Toby Lewis 88 v 55 push pre and called in the blinds

Leaves Lewis short.....after losing that 44,000 pot

On the river of a Jh Th 5s 4c 3s board, Jason Lam moves in for 32.2k, just under the size of the pot. Surinder (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=422) Sunar (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=422) counts out the chips but then folds. 8-2 wasn't good this time I guess.

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=26204&g2_serialNumber=1)

Edward Roger raises to 3,100 from the cutoff but talks himself out of the hand when Andrew (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=1402) Teng (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=1402) reraises all-in from the small blind for 19,500 total.

and then Toby Lewis is OUT

Opponent opens for 3,500

Toby shoves for 14,000 with 10 10

Called by AJ

Ace high flop

Reputedly handsome Paul Ephremsen has made progress so far today. Up to 70,000 though he just had to give up when raising on the button Ac x and folding to the big blind Stephen Spencer's push

Ramsey (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=2956) Ajram (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=2956) raises the small blind and Iqbal (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=178) Patel (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=178) moved in. Ramsey said quietly, "Ok, call," and they flipped their cards over. Ad 7d for Ajram and Aspades 2d for Patel. But the dealer hadn't heard the call and thought the former had passed, mucking the cards and passing the pot to Patel.

"What are you doing, I've called!" said a flummoxed Ramsey.

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=26206&g2_serialNumber=1)

They managed to retrieve the cards from the muck and the deck was reshuffled and a Kh 8s 3d 4c Kd dealt out meaning the 7 kicker played. Just. Patel has been knocked out. Ajram up to about 65k.

Ramsey Ajram has knocked out Kai (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=1817) Paulsen (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=1817)

Kai raises pre with  Ac Ahrt

Ramsey calls in the big blind with  Kc Js

by the time the turn has been dealt on a  2h Jh 7d Tc board all the money is in

Meanwhile Paul (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=1469) Ephremsen (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=1469) has knocked out Paul (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=339) Zimbler (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=339)

Joey (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=203) Lovelady (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=203) is coming back into it, just forcing Rory (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=1880) Campbell (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=1880) out of a 40,000 pot witha  check raise on a  6d 8c 7h board out of the blinds in a raised pot 

Oi! Only updaters are allowed to make nerdy in-jokes that only 3 people get. :P

Update on Bo "skins" Le pls.

Double up for Burnely John Falconer with Ad Ks against Paul Gardener's 9d 9c on a 7s Jh Th 4h Qd board. He's up to the heady heights of 16k.

Shaun Dean has doubled up to 30k, pushing over the top of Joey Lovelady's 4,100 raise with Ac Qd and getting called by 4s 4d. Dean tapped the table as the first card came out Qc followed by a 3d 3h 6h 5h board.

Jeff has Kimber-sliced a chunk off Dominic Rossookh's stack. In a multiwraay pot, the board of Ahrt 5c Jd was checked to Kimber who bet 3,200. Rossookh check/raised to 17,600 but then appeared to hate everything in life when Kimber made it a stack-committing 50,600. Rossookh made a disgruntled fold.

Bo Le update

Chris Cope raised to 3,200 in early position called by David Maudlin and Bo in late position

flop  8s Ts 8d checked to Bo who bet 7,500

Chris check raises all in to 23,000

Bo, after considerable dwellage gives it up

(http://lh6.ggpht.com/_M7mySuUsa6c/SfMh1jM0yUI/AAAAAAAAATI/E4U_q3TYMSc/IMG_9072.JPG)

It's not good news I'm afraid as he's down to about 45k. He made it 4,100 to go preflop from early position with Surinder Sunar calling next to him.

Both players checked the Qh Kc 9h flop before Le bet 6,300 on the 4c turn. Surinder made the call before betting 15,400 on the 9s river after Le checked. Eventually Le made the call and Surinder Sunar showed Aspades Ks and Le mucked. A-Q perhaps?

Karim Jomeen has just knocked out Jason Lam in a huge pot. All the money went in on the turn of a Ts 9h 7s Kc 7d board, Lam with Kd Td and Jomeen with the Qh Jh that dodge the 4-outer on the river. Jomeen probably is the new chip leader now.

How many chips does that leave him with?

Btw, the pic doesn't work :(

He's down to about 30k, George McDonald raised from the cutoff to 4,100. Bo Le made it about 13k, McDonald moved in and Le passed. McDonald showed the 2d.

Andrew Teng is out. He had apparently lost an earlier pot with Kings against Ace King and pushed with 9d 9s, Karim Jomeen called with Aspades Ac and a Js 7d 3d Ad Jc board was pretty clinical.

Jomeen is up to almost 190k.

Charles Ihle doubles through Keir Ratcliff, but not without a severe scare on the way

He min raised with  Aspades Ad and Keir called in the big blind with  9c 2c

flop  9h 9s 5s.

All the money goes in

turn and river  6s Ts to provide the switch-back

Charles "I want the action, but not with 9-2 on that board!"

Keir "You made it too cheap"

50,000 pot

Andy Middleton has doubled up through Karim Jomeen with Ad Js vs Kh Qs all-in preflop with the board coming 7h Ts 3c 9s 2c.

Photos btw, are taking absolutely ages to upload for some reason, but they are coming.

Players are now on a break. Like Ross and Rachel.

Making their way across to the bar at the break Surindar is getting ribbed by the table 7 players for his 8-2 play. Surinder smiles, shrugs his shoulders and adjusts his beanie hat!

Play resumes

first hand back Burnley John is eliminated..before I had the chance to waddle across he is gone

any news on the moormans please?

Moorman1 is down to about 30k. Moorman2 looks to be on about 120k. Full counts to come shortly.

Joey Lovelady has a nice double through

Bahman bets 6,000

Joey makes it 18,000

turn  9d

Bahman checks

Joey pushes all in for 35,000

Snap called by Bahman

river  9s

Joey Lovelady up to 130,000 give or take, Bahman short-stacked

Surinder Sunar has been moved off table 7, from the big blind onto the Chi Nguyen, Ramsey Ajram table

Dominic Rossookh is down to the virtual felt after getting the worst of it in a blind on blind battle with Keir Ratcliff.

Kc Tc 9d

Ratcliff bet 4k and Rossookh check/raised to 13k. Call.

Kd

Rossookh bets 16.5k and then mutters, "Sick," when Ratcliff moves in for an additional 17.3k but makes the call for most of his stack.

Rossookh: Jc 8c
Ratcliff -- Ks 4h

The 5h river helps neither play and Rossookh has about 5k left. Ratcliff on almost 100k.

Des Jonas has doubled through Andy Middleton with Ad Js versus 5c 5d. The board coming Ts 4s Qs Kd Ks. Middleton went out soon after.

Chip leader at the break Karim Jomeen.

Chi Nguyen has knocked out Fakshad Ferdowsian to consolidate his strong position



Meanwhile I arrive at a hand between Richard Sudworth and Ryan (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=390) Fronda (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=390)

on a  6h 7c 7d board big blind Fronda has just check raised all-in over Sudworth's flop bet.

It's a big pot, 30,000 in the middle and the re-raise is 29,300 more for Sudworth to call from his 50,000 stack

Eventually he calls tabling  8d 8s and Fronda flips  Td 7h

turn and river  Ks Kc

Fronda up to nearly 100,000 and Sudworth struggling   

cheers chris, good luck to the moormans, kimber, bullitpete and jack powell

Tighty, you can start planning another trip to London Road next season

 ;yippee; ;yippee; ;yippee;

Pete Haslam raises to 5,500 on the button and gets called by blinds Edward Lundon and Jeff Kimber who both fold to a 10,500 bet on the Qd Jc Td flop.

Andrew Booth has doubled through Costas Kkola with Jacks versus Kings. The binkage in question even more surpreme than usual because a third player confessed to folding K-J after the hand.

George McDonald bets 26.5k on the turn of a Ad 7d 5c 6c board against Ryan Fronda which reprents maybe half of the latter's stack. He can't stand the heat and folds. Wellchief is erm...well over the 100k mark.

Joey Lovelady has bust Paul (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=1469) Ephremsen (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=1469), all I saw was the chips being scooped up at the end and Paul striding off purposely towards the car park

Joey (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=203) Lovelady (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=203) has just knocked out 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). I arrived a touch too late again but only to hear the refrain from Tim "I don't know why I pushed all in". Joey is amongst the chip leaders now

Paul E all in pre with AK v K7, flop came K7X

yikes

Joey Lovelady is now the new chip leader with over 200k and starting to run over his table. Karim Jomeen has dropped a lot of chips to Paul Gardener, the latest being on a Td 8s Qc 6h 9s board where Gardener bet 15k and got paid off by Jomeen who mucked when the former Blackpool runner-up showed him 9c 7d. Gardener probably has about 175k now and Jomeen is down to about 80k.

The dinner break will be at the end of this level, an hour early, but we're not complaining. 43 players remain.

We're now on a 1 hour dinner break.

Ryan Fronda check raises to 20,000 out of the blinds over Chris Cope's 8,000 flop bet on a  2s 8s 8h board and Cope, clock called, makes an agonised pass

Steve Holden and George McDonald have been scrapping

on a  5c 2h  Js flop George bets 6,000 into a 15,000 pot and is check called by Steve

turn  Tc check check

river  Qh check, George bets 8,000 and Steve calls, mucking when shown  Kh Jh

Steve struggling with 40,000 while George continues to look comfortable

How are Bo Le and Mickey Wernick doing pls?

Boom Boom Boom

Bo has recovered somewhat after his tribulations from earlier. I'd guesstimate 80,000

Mickey Wernick is sitting to the direct left of Joey Lovelady, with guesstimate 70,000. I haven't seen Mickey play a pot today, but he's clearly ducking and diving whilst others fall by the wayside

Jeff Kimber comes over and tells me he has 177,000 at this break "back to where I was last break, I haven't played a hand for a level until just now when I raised with  Kh Qh and Keir Ratcliff paid me off for two bets on a King high flop"

play has resumed

Yes, that was Joey Lovelady with the K-7.

He also busted Tim Flanders who limped A-A and checked all three streets of an A-9-4-T-6 board before check/raising all-in on the river against Lovelady, who had got there with 8-7.

We join the board where Jeff Kimber is betting 6,500 into a pot against Simon Moorman on a 5s Ahrt Kh Kd turn. Moorman2 makes it 20,000 and after some deliberation, Kimber just flat-calls.

The river is an innocuous looking 6h. Kimber checks and with shaking hands Moorman2 bets 40k, Kimber announces all-in and Moorman2 shovels his stack equally quickly.

Kimber flips 5c 5h for the flopped set and turned house but Moorman2 turns over 6d 6s for a rivered bigger boat. Stunningly, Jeff Kimber is out and Simon Moorman has perhaps 350k and is our new chip leader.

Photos to follow.

Wow With 350k he has to finish in the top 3 now for sure

[  ] you know a lot about poker tournaments!


gogogogogogogo Moorman2!!!

lol, go on moormans dad!!

the casino just got a bit noisy for some reason....

meanwhile Joey (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=203) Lovelady (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=203) is steamrollering over a table now joined by Ryan (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=390) Fronda (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=390). I watched him raise 4 of the last 6 hands..only once contested by the blind who then gave up on the flop

He'll be second in chips behind Moominseniorbot quite comfortably now

Matt Perrins update plzz

Teach me pls Moorman2! Awesome run. Moorman's heads up one time plz!

Ramsey (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=2956) Ajram (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=2956) looks in agony when he has to fold a 12.5k bet to a minraise from Surinder (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=422) Sunar (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=422) on a Js 6d 9d board.

Not to be outdone, Chris (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=69) Moorman (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=69) has doubled through Steve Holden, only Moomin with his natural rungood genetic makeup, could make a button push with Jd 8c and find himself in a race against 7c 7s with the board coming 4c 8h 3h Qd 2h.

Poor Steve Holden though, is on the brink with just a few k left.

Matt's been flying under my radar most of the day. Sitting two to the right of Joey (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=203) Lovelady (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=203) he currently has 75,000

I attempted to conduct an in depth interview which went as follows

"How is it going Matt?"

"OK, just got a bit lucky a few hands ago, spiked to stay in"

"Feeling confident?"

eyebrows raise...sheepish look....next hand is dealt and I sidle away quielty

is surinder sunar still in plzz

youve collected dunk.

yes yes 150,000 or so

Watching him in action is quite something. Every move is deliberate and measured. When he raises the chips go over the line almost imperceptibly, with a light touch. Voice muted, soft and understated actions throughout.

He is the poker equivalent of Rudolph Nureyev nimbly manoeuvring his chips across the felt, only without the tights, but a grey beanie hat instead

updates on kier ratcliff pls guys....

Updates on Bo Le please.

:)

Oooooooooh. You are the bokkage daddy...

He's just busted. Pushing over Rory Cambell's cut-off raise from the button, but Bo Le found Kc Ks behind him in the small blind. "I've only looked at one!" said Keir showing Aspades 7c, the board of Kh Qh Qc Tc Jh rivered him a straight, but the major problem with that was that Le had already flopped a boat. Le has made a big revival from earlier and now is easily back over 100k.

I haven't mentioned it for a few updates now so here goes..........................NORKAGE UPDATES PLEASE.

Steve Holden is out, the remains of his stack went in with Kc 9c but couldn't outdo Ryan Fronda's Ac Qh on an 8h 2s 5c 8d 3c board.

Moomin and Steve Holden after Moomin's double up but before Steve's exit. (The camera uploading is very slow).

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=26220&g2_serialNumber=1)

You never do a post that isn't a request for norkage. ;)

Thank youuu. Great updates guys.

Charles (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=2234) Ihle (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=2234) is OUT. 29 left

Ross Parkhill has finally found a hand so someone can fight back against Joey (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=203) Lovelady (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=203). Lovelady opened as per usual for 7,500 and Parkhill found Jacks in the big blind and popped it to 21,500

"How much have you got behind?" enquired Lovelady

"150,000" came the reply and Lovelady folded

"two overs" he said when the Jacks were flipped

Not to worry, next hand Lovelady raises again and its uncontested again

Ask for updates on Andreas Holvoid ... that never gets ignored ;)

One camera, and I don't have it much!

 :D

Don't start!

Is Kevin Holdstock still in thx?

Now if the updating team was the beagle and kev we would be innundated with norkage even though Manchester probably is 99.9% devoid of any half-decent norkage.

Updates on Paul Gardener and Dave Maudlin plz.

Trigg what price ftw and each way for these 2?

Bo Le to beat Moorman's Dad heads-up please. lol.

George McDonald "WellCheif" has eliminated Bahman Aghatabay

blind on blind Bahman raised by 5,000 in the small blind and George called

flop A J 8 check check

turn K Bahman pushes, George snaps him off

Bahman AQ

George a nut-tastic Q 10 with no flush draws on the board it was game over

Pretty epic omaha session last night mate! Hope he's there next week lol. Can't believe I laid trip aces down to him. Should have thought about it for longer

Bo Lee has over 150,000. On the table break to three tables Surinder Sunar was moved to his direct right


Dave Maudlin is comfortable on 100,000 plus

Chris Moorman is out. He pushed the cut-off with Ahrt 5d and Karim Jomeen quickly called him with Ac Qh from the button. A Qd 3d 6h 6d 4c offered only the slighty flushing hope on the turn, but Moorman (Jr) misses out while it looks like his dad is sure to cash.

Matt Perrins and Pete Haslam surviving at the moment on raising machine Joey Lovelady's table.

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=26222&g2_serialNumber=1)

You have the internet. I'm sure you can find your own!

To answer queries Paul Gardener has over 150,000. Looks like Kevin Holdstock is out

Two away from the bubble Najam Quereshi has just doubled through Mickey Wernick  Ad Qs v  5h 5c,  Ahrt on the flop

Yeah, good game indeed! I had to resort to the old last-hand-of-night-get-out-of-it lol. I reckon he'll be there tonight.

who is the live one nick?

Ken Broad- he was on 88.com poker open. Loaded. Pots everything pre and will not lay anything down!

gogogoo perrins + moorman 2

hahahahaah. Loud obnoxious??  i was 3 handed in a final and just chopped, for 8k, 8k and 10k and we bumped into broad after one of his roulette spin ups. He said, i"ts took you 2 days to earn that, it took me 15 minutes to win twice as much"

Yeah lol. Potentially playing for stacks every pot. I'm shizz at omaha but it was good fun!

Ryan (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=390) Fronda (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=390) raises preflop and Simon Moorman reraises an additional 11k. Call.

Ks Ts 5d

Fronda checks, Moorman bets 25k. Two minutes of dwelling. Call.

3c

Check....check.

Jd

Fronda checks a third time. Moorman2 bets 50k which is the majority of Fronda's stack. Fronda thinks for ages, he looks like he really wants to call but eventually folds after having the clock called on him and getting Moorman to agree to show. Moorman shows 9s 9c, apparently Fronda folded Queens, which is surely a call in this spot, or is it not that clear cut? Incidentally, Moorman1 was sure Moorman2 was bluffing the river.

bullitpete Haslam has perished pushing Jacks and finding Chi Nguyen behind with Kings.

Moormans dad ftw 1 time, be funny if he overtook moormans live db in his 1st tournament

Short break, 26 left, 24 paid

That's him- he stacked Linton and then gave him a real rubdown

This!

Ramsey Ajram doubled up just before the break, pushing Aspades Qs and having Jehan Zaib shove behind with Ad Kh.

Qc 9c 3s 8s 7s

Ajram up to about 50k or so. Zaib left with shrapnel.

Short break.

Just caught up with the updates, great job yet again :)

Will be down shortly to buy in for 2moro!

Jehan Zaib goes out in 26th place meaning...

;mc;

Joey
Geo
Ross Parkhill

Doing a great job with the updates guys!

Jehan pushed AQ short-stacked, indeed micro-stacked

Ramsey (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=2956) Ajram (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=2956) called with 95 in the blinds, first card out was a nine

+2

yeah im pulling hard for moomin now tobes is out

THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


gogogogoogogo moorman2

still on the bubble here. Hand for hand play, slow progress until this dam bursts.

£2,240 for 24th onwards...

Kenny Burke reraised an extra 20k on Ramsey Ajram's button raise. Ajram taking a couple of minutes before shoving and Burke instantly folding Q-3o face up. Ajram showing Queens. Rory Campbell shouted, "Ramsey, you slowrolling c**t!"

George McDonald is picking up a lot of blinds bubt had to fold once to a Matt Perrins push.

Joey Lovelady raises Surinder Sunar's 12k bet to 36k on a 6c 2d 5c board. Surinder calls the raise before setting Lovelady in on the 5d turn for about 120k. Lovelady shakes his head muttering how sick it is and folds. Sunar shows 9d 8d. Still hand for hand.

Still on the bubble but Rory Cambell is fuming.

He raised preflop with Edward Roger calling from the blinds.

9s 2d 7d

Both checked.

8s

Roger bet 16k and Campbell called.

3c

Check check. But when Roger showed 4d 3d for a missed flush draw but rivered pair, Campbell was very upset and slammed a couple of chips on the table loudly having lost around 30k from his stack after making the correct call on the turn. The tension of the bubble no doubt getting to him given that I've never seen a single emotion from him in the last two days.

your not talking about this ken are you

http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/article921080.ece

where is he playing now quite a few people wanting him

Edward Lundon doubles through Moomin 2

Lundon raised with  Ts Td and Moorman in the blinds shoved over him with  8d 8c

Lundon called and hit a   Th on the flop for good measure to win a 200,000 pot

factoid that interests me, but probably not you

Rory Campbell's dad is Tony Blair's chief spin doctor and director of Communications Alistair Campbell

update Joey Lovelady please?

over this one hour bubble period his stack has remained at the 200,000 level

Most recently he raised to 14,000 and Ryan Fronda pushed in for 50,000 more. After much though Joey Folded

How's Bo Le doing guys?

The bubble has broken.

Here comes Floppy

Lol, Kenny Broad! Not one to mess with.

In Walsall one night, Bob The Butcher - who's thing is to kiss blokes, smack on the lips, full on, kissed Kenny. Not a wise thing, & it nearly went off big time, between 2 geezers who both have a bit of, err, history. I think Kenny said "try that again, smack on the lips, & I'll smack you good & proper". He's a big bugger. Casinos must  love him, he's sticks a good bit down on the Tables.

Reraised pot preflop between Bo Le (small blind) and Surinder Sunar (button) putting in around 90k in preflop.

2s Ac 7d

Le bets 71k, Surinder Sunar makes it 166k. All-in. Call

Le: Ad Ks
Sunar: 7h 7c

8c

Kd

Bo Le goes out on the bubble, everyone else is in the money. Surinder Sunar is one of the chip leaders now.

Fab Glittering Cash Prizes:

1st -- £88,630
2nd -- £54,380
3rd -- £35,760
4th -- £23,240

Bluff a bit, does he?

Maybe when he wants to gamble, he says "OK, I'll give you a spin".......

So sick for Bo, that's ice cold.

So much game he's got but the rub of the green never seems to run his way.

after the snap, crackle and pop of the bubble bursting the next two exits came pretty quick

Sean Dean took A7 against George (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=1050) McDonald (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=1050)'s 44, which tripped up on the flop rendering the river 7 irrelevant.

Leaving in 23rd was Dominic Rossokh, pushing with  Kd 8d and running smack bang into Joey (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=203) Lovelady (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=203)'s  Ks Kc behind

George (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=1050) McDonald (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=1050) is happier now "I'm off hand for hand tilt now", which I suppose 10 hands per level would bring for an experienced online multi-tabler

What a joke. Undeserved.

my mate was OOP to McDonald earlier in the comp and said he played pretty sick good so I think I'll support him now, as well as Moorman's dad.

I probably know some of the others by face but not by name.

Kenny Burke pushes the small blind and George McDonald calls in the big blind.

Burke: Ad 7h
McDonald: Ahrt 6h

A topsy-turvy Jh 9s 8s 9h 8d ends up with them splitting the pot.

Burke, "How can you call with that shit?"

Najam Qureshi who came back today with just 12k, goes out. He lost a big flip to Kevin McInally with 5h 5s vs Kh Js on a Jc Tc 7h 6d Td board before his shrapnel went in with 7c 2c vs Karim Jomeen's Ahrt 6h and almost got there on the 5c 9c 4c Ad 4h board.

Mickey Wernick is really in the danger zone with 40,000 and OOP to Karim Jomeen

"I havent' had a hand all day, then I look down at AK suited and the dealer declares a misdeal"

Norrrrrrrrr. Gutted for Bo.

Ramsey Ajram is out, he pushed in for 10BB's UTG with A-9 but Chi Nguyen found Queens in the big blind. The board bricked off and Ramsey left but Kenny Burke was the only one at the table to raise an eyebrow.

"How can he push there? That's f**king terrible!" He turns to Matt Perrins and says, "Isn't that awful?"

Matt Perrins, "Seems pretty standard. He only has 10 big blinds."

Burke is aghast, "Standard? Let me tell you, even if I had Aces, I still make it 3 times the big blind and just shove the flop. Come on, explain it to me."

Perrins, "Well, I don't really have to explain anything..." He presses the check/fold button on the conversation sensing perhaps Burke is not going muck his point of view whatever the case.

Burke, "You're talking out of your arse..."

Meanwhile Surinder Sunar is the chip leader with about 560k. Look! He does smile! :)

(http://blondepoker.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=26226&g2_serialNumber=1)

how long are they playin down to today? or how many are they playin till left?

Paul Gardener and Dave Maudin updates plz

Kevin Holdstock. I am afraid I incorrectly reported he was out earlier..oops, sorry. Has just doubled through Paul Gardener with AK v AJ blind on blind, push and call. King on the flop


Joey Lovelady raises to 15,000 into Surinder's blind "Oh no, I didn't realise it was yours"

Surinder calls and then check-folds  Ac Qs face up on a  6d 7d 8h flop to Joey's 29,000 bet


Two more levels tonight maximum or stop if they hit the final before that. Short break now

chip counts at the end of the break. Neither are in any trouble though, medium stacked behing leaders Sunar, Nyugen, Josseem, Lovelady, Moorman2 in my estimation

Ryan Fronda

"Struggling now, haven't found a hand or a spot for two levels really  and I am in a difficult position as Surinder has so many chips and I can't attack him, yet have to raise through him. Tried to steal the blinds a couple of times and been pushed off pre-flop and now I think its shove time"

o sick fronda still in.

Team Bagley -  Fronda/McDonald/Moorman

True to the mini-interview, Ryan (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=390) Fronda (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=390) shoves the first hand back with A7 and walks into Moominbot2 in the blinds with  Js Jh. No help and he is out in 20th

"it was the first Ace I have seen in aeons" (actually he said ages, but I like the word Aeons)

Matt (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=2954) Perrins (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=2954) is out, he pushed blind for 58k from the small blind (he actually only had 6-2o). David Maudlin took about a minute to nitroll call with A-Q from the big blind. No luck and we're down to two tables.

Oh and I'll leave you to guess what Kenny Burke thought about Matt Perrins play... ;)

hope kenny burke busts asap sounds like a total ****

We've broken to two tables and table Loadsachips is a real doozie

In a row Joey Lovelady, Moorman2, Chi Nguyen, Surinder, George McDonald. We'll see what Kenny makes of this lot!

Only Karim Joseem on the other table has anything like the individual stack of these guys

Just now blind on blind Surinder raises to 25,000 and McDonald pushes for 135,000 total in the big, Surinder dwell-passes

He moved in once more from the cutoff and Surinder dwelt for ages before calling on the button, Rory looked in agony before the call purely because Surinder takes a long time with every decision, usually a minute or more anytime Rory had pushed.

This time though they were raising, Campbell flipped Ahrt Qs, Sunar showing 7d 7h.

Kh 8s 5h Js 8h for an 18th place finish for the youngster. The Sunar-crushing-machine marches on. Very. Slowly.

Edward Lundon raises to 24k on the button. Kenny Burke flat-calls in the big blind with 33k behind. Joey Lovelady raises one eyebrow.

Th Qh 9h

Burke moves all-in. Lundon folds Aspades Ks face up. Burke shows 4c 3c. Lovelady and George McDonald share a smile.

[X] Sigh.
[  ] Deserves being on the PHA board.
[  ] If you're reading this and playing online, you sure won't tilt.

Two exits to report on

The ever patient Mickey (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=283) Wernick (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=283) at last found a hand, Jacks and pushed into Karim Jomeen who called with K7 in the blinds and hit a King

Kevin McInally then pushed UTG and Ross Parkhill next door pushed over the top. This was a classic unavoidable race, Kevin's Jacks against Ross' AK off. King on the turn, King on the river knocked Kevin out

15 left

lolol

 Even live old-timers can figure out that may not be totally optimal.

Surinder raises in mid position

Edward Roger re-raises from the small blind

Surinder calls

This has already become a large pot. Over 100,000 in the middle

flop  2h Js 5s

Edward bets 65,000

Surinder thinks. Thinks some more. Thinks again. We can hear the whirring of the camera and the jingle of the gaming tables as we wait. He Passes

Edward throws  9s 7c over in the general direction of the flop

Surinder cracks a smile and nods his head in appreciation

Huge pot for David Maudlin.

Karim Jomeen raised preflop to 24k and Paul Gardener moved all-in for about 130k. Then David Maudlin moved all-in behind him and left a big decision for Jomeen. Eventually the latter called with Qh Qc, Gardner had Td Tc and Maudlin flipped Kh Kc. But this is where it got controversial, Jomeen flipped his Queens as soon as he called but Maudlin waited until after Gardner had flipped his cards before he turned over his Kings and Jomeen said, "Thanks for the slowroll."

6h 2h 8c 4h 7c board eliminated Gardner and left Jomeen short but the latter was more concerned that Maudlin had waited too long to show his cards. "You know you've got the best hand, I'm just saying open your hand. It's bad etiquette."

Maudlin was unrepentant, "I never slowroll anyone."

I'm not totally sure it was a slowroll or not, but Maudlin did take longer than most would to flip over Kings when they know they have to have the best hand, so I can understand why Jomeen is upset, but Maudlin did take ages to call with the A-Q earlier though so perhaps it's just his style.

Jon Raab, who watched the hand also, thought it wasn't a slowroll.

Knowing Dave this would never have been deliberate

never a slowroll.
Very unlucky paul, good performance m8.

Chi is not Nguyening at the moment.

He's just doubled up Eddie Lundon with Js Jh vs Kc Qs on a 5c Qc Qd 4c 6h board.

Then a couple of hands later he raises preflop once more with Js Jh and Kenny Burke flats for a big chunk of his stack with Ac Qs and they get it in on a 9h 2c 6c board, Burke hitting the Ahrt and then the Ad for good measure...

George McDonald tells me, "Kenny has been drinking pints of wine all day..."

honey man for the win

Nothing like a pint of wine. What's Kenny's online name?

I think the thing that aggrieved Jomeen was that David Maudlin was standing back a few feet away from the table and did wait until Paul Gardener had flipped his cards first rather than just turning his hand over when he was called.

Perhaps Jon Raab stated it best though, "At the end of the day, what difference does a few seconds make?"

Maudlin is vying with Surinder Sunar for the chip lead.

[  ] Spoken like a true poker player.

Slowrolling is disgusting, if someone does it to me they go on 'the list'

totally agree

Harri Isomaki has been very quiet all day but has sprung into action

First he pushed in the cut off with  Ad 9d and was called by Maudlin in the big blind with  Ahrt 5s

a  Kc Qs Jh Qh 4s produced a split pot


Very next hand he loked down at  Ac Ahrt and conveniently I was stood behind to have a sneaky peek. A subtle dwell, another push rather than a suspicious looking standard raise and frustratingly for him no business

Very next hand he looks down at  3d 3c and possibly thinking his third successive push would receive no respect he passed. Immediately Kevin Holbrook next door pushed in, uncalled

whats the list? ppl u can slowroll in the future? can we make a list in the blonde hall of fame for perpetual slowrollers so that whenever a blonde plays X, we can take 10 mins and order a coffee before making them flip out on the river?

this is not a slowroll get over it. bad etiquette, he probably doesnt know better. game on

You took 11 minutes to nitroll me with A-K in Brighton! You are now on my list.

its ok to slowroll in brtghton

20 minutes of the day's play to go, 14 left

SonOfMartinGreen..get ready to restrain your dad, keep him offline for an hour...its nearly that time again! 

Ross Parkhill pushes UTG for 62,000 with  Ks Jc and Harri Isomaki re-shoves next to him with  Ad Qh

Board  2s 7c 4h Ac Qs and Ross Parkhill is OUT in 13th

Last six hands  ;)

Andrew Booth just doubled up through Ross Parkhill with Ahrt Kd vs Aspades Jd. Parkhill had had to fold the previous hand to an all-in reraise which hadn't helped.

Eddie Lundon raises to 27k, Surinder Sunar makes it 85k. Now Lundon pushes for 158k more. Surinder folds what I swear was a flash of A-K...

George McDonald has gone out to Surinder Sunar soon after. Sunar button raised and McDonald shipped in his 140k or so stack. After a couple of minutes thought, Sunar made the call with Ad Js, dominating McDonald's Ks Jc and leaving him drawing dead on the flop after the board came Aspades Ahrt Jh...

We're almost at the final table with about 10 minutes left...

Juuuuune! You cold 4'd! Your range is like AA suited+

Minumum. 

Surinder Sunar raises to 35k on the button. Edward Lundon flat-calls before Kenny Burke moves all-in. Sunar quickly folds (I mean for him) and Lundon deliberates before making the call with 6s 6d. Burke shows Ad Kh and we're off, off, off to the races.

Qh Aspades 5c Th 9s

Burke screams with delight, "In the treeeeeeeeeeeee!" Or something along those lines.

He's over 200k now.

And that's the end of play, 12 players back for tomorrow. Chip counts etc... to follow later.

Play will begin at 2pm.

See you then.
