blonde poker forum

I've decided that I want to play these 2 events but due to a few financial problems (drunken 5/5 dc at the weekend  ;grr;) I've destroyed my monthly poker allowance.

I'm hoping to sell around 50% of each tournament and will sell at 1:1 so 10% will be £22 and £55 respectively.

My live tournament record is reasonable but doesn't include any major wins although I hardly play any majors to be fair.

Since I started playing in October 2007 I have played a total of 172 tournaments ranging from £20 rebuys up to the 1k DTD tournaments.

My total entry fees have been £19775 with winnings of £24297. I have 29 cashes, 28 final tables, 4 3rds, 2 2nds and 5 wins.

Transfers will have to be via bank transfer, pokerstars through a friend, Blonde or cash on the day.

Cheers for any interest

Matt

ill have the rest but no dropping out if you win it before the weekend

Even if I win like 20k?

You can only drop out if you are: -

a) Dead (hopefully your not though)
b) You win £17,019 exactly

but if you win £16,048 then I get an extra 10% for free

Pah!! Small print!!

The price you pay for being a Blatch horse.

What price can you put on GTD rungoodaments?

Ok so this sold quicker than I ever thought possible. Thanks for the interest, much appreciated.

I only intended to sell about 50% of each but as it's Blatch I've given up a bit more than initially planned.

This may change because I'm awaiting confirmation from the 2 PM guys but will update when I know.

Everyone who's in is 100% trusted so I'll go to Gala tonight or tomorrow to buy in.

I'll be seeing all of you at some point soon so cash when I next see you will be fine. Transfer ok as well if you prefer.

Thanks again guys.

Matt

good luck

Cash on day sounds good.

Just let me know how much and want % I get please.

Also can you let us know what registration number you are please?

this- still need to buy in!!!

Let me know if anyone doesn't come through. I'll take it mate...

Cheers Nick

Good luck with this Matt. 

Not surprised it's sold out so quickly.

Every staker wants to be invovled as soon as LeKnave is

rotflmfao

That wasn't my point, but yes I see what you mean.  For that same reason I think you'd all be wise to sell a few percent to Mr Hicks as well :D

Surely with Mr Hicks', Mr Jones' and my money behind Matt everyone else is playing for 2nd?

gd luck matt

erm.....

Have updated OP with confirmed stakers.

Will be buying in tomorrow night to avoid potentially missing out.

Can everyone let me know how they want to pay.

Cheers all

Matt

Cash - £1 coins ok???

That's fine mate. I can use them on the fruit machines.

Are you playing the tournament?

yeah

Just been to Gala to reg.

65 runners so far for the 550, 20 odd for the 220.

sorry to miss this,

gl mate - see u there

gl, not suprised it went so fast, good offer.

Oh man

You lot are so lucky!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bought in for this last night and realised that Matt being staked screws our standard 10% swap.

He is absolutely bound to bink it now with all that lucky money on him and the chance to put it in my eye!

good luck Matthew.

Eye of the tiger.

Toasty, Matts got 85k. glglgl

go on Matt!!

He finished the night on about 30-40k after Blatch played like a spaz and got it in [  ] good vs our man, Blatch's A8 obv too good for Pie's AQ though, sigh.

Need to get Blatch drawing to 2 outs to have a chance, 3 is too many.

Ha ha. Can't complain about Blatch's bit of luck tbh. I had my fair share.

Played really well yesterday and had a few lucky hits which meant that when I got unlucky I survived.

Still sat on 22 bigs for the return so there's a good chance particularly on this table.

Not saying it's weak btw just that there's plenty of light raising so I'll get a good chance to shove and be ahead.

Starting table was absolutely sick.

Kev Smith (very aggro), Thewey, Me, James Keys, Toby Lewis, Bookiebasher. We got joined by Tom Rutter and George on level 2. I don't think there was an orbit without a 4 bet by someone. Very entertaining poker.

GL everyone still in.

Especially me!!!!!!

GL Matt  ;cheerleader;

gogogoog pie. Ship the 14 large plz. PS, dont chop with Jones HU if he offers, he is tez HU.

Go go Stumpetta!

any updates?

I can't find the live feed.

If anyone has the links pls pm me!

Got it...

Matt now on 70k! Doubled with AK vs A8.

(Knave got it in for a 90k pot with AQ vs A8 and lost, sigh).

lets gogogogo Matt.

ul Matt.

wp

Well we managed a return of £1400 so at least a little profit for everyone.

Got a nice early double up with AK then won a few more pots to get me up to 80k.

Made a big mistake with AA against a Matt Perrin raise. I 3 bet from the cut off where I think a shove gets his chips. With 3 left to act the shove looks like an iso raise and I think he calls with his 99.

Exit hand was standard I think. I'm not one for laddering so I thought a bb shove with  Ks 8s against an aggro sb raise was fine.

Maybe I pulled the trigger a bit early. I was on 60k with the blinds at 1500/3000 + 300 so I had a bit of time but certainly not much. Oppo had AJ and held.

So payouts are as follows:

Rooks - £280
LeKnave - £280
Chris Bruce - £140
Blatch - £280
Me - £420 wiiiiiiiiiii

Blatch. I've left your money with TK. Didn't want to disturb you at the table. If he forgets give him a prod.

Chris, I'll sort you out next time at DTD if that's ok.

Rooks and Knave. Let me know how you want it. Bank tx or Blonde is easiest for me. I'm at the apat thing in 2 weeks. If either of you are there I can give you the cash then. Just let me know.

Cheers for the support guys. Sorry I couldn't bring us a big win but a little profit's better than nothing. Really fancied it tbh but there's always next time.

Matt

VWell done Matt, sick exit too.

Well played Matt - good result.

n1 mate

WP Matt, ul. Fine shove with your exit hand mate.

WP Matt

nice result

wasnt it  Kd 8d?

No mate

If they were blue they would've won obv.

Well played Matt. Top job!

Got the cash thanks bud.

Thought you played a real good solid game today just a bit unfortunate in one or two spots.

Well done Matt.

Cheers mate.

So what did you have in "that hand"?

6's or 7's?

And do you think you call the shove?

Really enjoyed that particular hand. History played a big part in it. I was sure you were raising light but I think you know I'm 3 betting light against you. That's why i nearly shoved your 4 bet.

Looked like a good steal to me but I so nearly went. If you had less chips than me I definitely go because it's an even tougher call for you then.

WP mate. Where'd you end up?

haha QFT

I had QJ off.

I was pretty certain one of you two were going to 3 bet light with the history so had the 4 bet ready.

Not sure if you noticed but I had left enough of a raise left to enable me to fold ...... which I had ready if the 5 bet shove came.

That was why I checked your stack. When I saw you had 80k I knew my 50 could get rid but I just couldn't quite pull the trigger.

Nice one mate.

I don't think you'll ever realise how close they were to going over the line.

I had A4 btw. VWP

I saw your ace when you lifted it up and thought hmmmmm ok insta muck coming here when the shove comes.

This is worth a look lads......
