blonde poker forum

This afternoon from 2pm I will be bringing you, together with a guest updater I hope, the live update of what should be a corking event.

£1,000 buy-in, £250,000 guaranteed prize pool.

Many many blondes are playing, though no doubt some will spend most of day one nursing Hopkin-sized hangovers. Just in case they do, I will have my camera at the ready.

While I dig my car out of the snow drifts, and make my way up the motorway, please post your best wishes to the players, and I'll be back the God of Motorways permitting before the start, to update you on the number of runners, Barry Neville's Car Park Car Boot Sales and GreekStein's attempts to crush Larry the lobster.

Meanwhile you can enter the live update last longer here http://blondepoker.com/forum/index.php?topic=45902.msg1104332;boardseen#new

See you later.

its going to be a cracker gl to all players

oh, and gl guys. avoid my table please!

except for papertits. he is always welcome.

As above, except Tom Rutter is welcome at mine ;)

GL Blondes, see you there...

Gl all....

Sigh

You know Im goin to have a hopkin sized hangover when I lose a £400 pot to Vargas because his 8 high is good.

Shamone motherfucker!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GL all, i'm expecting a blonde packed final table.

lol.. Different gear that....
Gl today stu...

Best of Luck to all Blonde, APAT and Ace of Clubbers I know playing in this. Looking forward to the updates Rich should be a cracking tourney.

Cheers

Well I made it. Quite the strangest journey, from ice and snow drifts near me we crawled up the M1 to Leicester and then, as if by magic the white vista was transformed into Green fields and not a trace of the snow North of Leicester Forest East. These Northerners have never had it so good I tell you, never had it so good. Not like us poor put upon Southerners struggling with this weather every winter.

Anyway, the good news is that the plasma in front of me is showing 244 entrants to date, and a very Happy Nick Whiten is walking around with the air of a man who has saved his boss's cheque book from a pounding.

Join me at 2pm for the beginning of the tournament.

Prew Diddy in the hiz house!

You cheeky little prewdle pop.

Mr GreekStein, as play starts

Here is TV personality and poker player Ashley Hames sporting today's early contender for "Christmas Jumper of the day"


 

GL to all the KC crew... John G, Cottonbud and the Rock. Bring it home !

I'll be there in a bit to keep Barry Neville company - got delayed by entirely avoidable circumstances (Mojitos and Jaegermeister)

What a great line up! I reckon this will be a great day for the shrewdies!

According to AlexMartin Flushy will be "in later". Apparently last night was a little too good

Is EVERYONE completely hung over and unwashed???!

The man himself says "I'm too foooking cold tighty" as he puts his fashionably young hoodie over his head and hunkers down for a long day ahead

One for the viewers.

Who is this?

Clue Appeared on Late Night Poker

Thats either a syrup, or he has shares in "Just for men"

For a change, I'm relieved (and so is the liver) not to have made the trip over!  Never good when so many grown men are wimping around the place.   rotflmfao

Good luck to all the piss heads blondes this week-end!!!

GLGLGL all blondes

Hello to an old friend Adam "snoopy1239" Goulding sporting last year's Xmas hoodie.

In travel news, he drove Jen up from London, they made it unscathed but feared Jen's car wouldn't so came in his.

Jan Lunberg. a nice guy

ByronKincaid.

Not a man who likes his photograph taken. In a rather childish but ultimately satisfying revenge for the grief he gives me on forum, I decided to post the least flattering photo I took of him

GL to everyone i know.

Good luck Glen 'Nirvana' Henderson'... what a treat... his first Malluing...

Jan Lundburg is correct.

I KNOW IT goes into the lead in the new "Tighty update Quizzer" competition

The only thing we care about if that is the most obv syrup of the century..these are the questions we need answering...

Couldn't help but notice the resemblance...

(http://i38.tinypic.com/343tch1.jpg)

Shame on you - TV's Tony Kendall surely has this title???

Hi TightEnd mate, if you're able too; can you get pics of  John Conroy (21-3), Alexandra Jackson-Palin (56-6) and Sebastian Powell (14-1).
Cheers

I said syrup.. not most obv distressed dipped in domestos kitten

I predict early exit or he will completely flummox the locals and go v deep. Off to buy shares in any wine wholesalers in the Nottingham area.

Snitchy Henderson is held up in traffic by all accounts.

Photo of Handsome Paul Ephremsen?

A fair few runners here from Continental Europe and one of these Frederik Hobl has just won a nice pot off Karl Mahrenholz

Karl bet the  8c 2h 7c 9s board and Hobl raised to 1500 on the button, which Karl called

Karl check called a 2500 bet on the  2s river and mucked when Herr Hobl  showed   9h 9d

Bad beat's Sebastian Powell

What are the blinds at levels 3 4 and 5 please.

Karabiner is sharing a table with Alex Martin and Alexandra Jackson-Palin, pictured below

He beckons me over....

"That Alex Martin is in every bloody pot"

"Well Yes ,Ralph" I reply "He is the Future of Poker"

"I've never played him before" says Ralph, arching an eyebrow and looking at me beseechingly

"My only advice Ralph" I say "is to always assume he is bluffing, this is why I am updating and he is playing the competition"

I would say this is the most obv syrup of the century

Hi thanks for all updates. Picture of toby lewis when you can please

Please wish good luck to a couple of 'Stokies' .  Craig Bickerton & Mark Wilson.  Cheers

Competition time

GreekStein pops over and says "I was down to 20,000 and now back to 30,000. Who is the guy on my table with the mouth? Boy am I going to get him!"

Who would that be? With respect to said gentleman, if you were going to try to tilt a play by speechplay....GreekStein is not a bad candidate!

Pics and chip counts for Ben Vinson, Jon O'Mara, Laurence Houghton and Gem Husnu please.

Luke "FullFlush" Schwarz is here. Pic to follow, if I dare

Simon Trumper announces "just to let all players know, the sandwiches are not free" *







* this is not true, but I wish it was.

Andy Bradshaw OBV.  That guy tilts me HARD.  Not even with his gob, which is boring at best but by the way he lobs chips across the felt!! Odds on Cos bslapping him??

1.01 A.Bradshaw
1000 Bar

At a guess

Craig Summerskill, for Mike Saban

First player OUT

Ali Mallu. Kings full against Quads.

Well I suppose if you are going to go......

The object of Chompy's affection, an already short stacked Paul Ephremsen

Dealer.

Pic of Dubai Dave please.

Jon "Bas" Spinks from EMS and Leeds

on his right, Marcus Bebb-Jones. Only kidding!

Thanks Tighty. Wrong name, right person though - cheers.

Any information on Adam 'Lego-hair' Munson would be really appreciated Tighty.

Karl Fenton knocks out Rab Bain JJ v 55 on a J-5-x flop

Glenn Henderson up to 50,000, he was the player that knocked out Ali Mallu

Current Chip leader clue for those that know him

Any chance of updates on the 3 KC POKER CLUB reps from Swindon, 'Honest' John Gardener, James 'Cottonbud' Williams and Adrian 'The Rock' Pound. Also, Guest Member (attended once and I knocked him out first hand) Matthew 'runs bad' Lewis.

Thanks Guys, know you're busy.

Ben Vinson and Rich Hare

Good Luck to Jamie Sykes

Grind it out Jamie

I beleive this is John Gardener, next to Steve Jelinek

John has got off to a poor start, and requested "can you leave it until I have some chips?"

Far be it for me to name the table wag who piped up "He hasn't got that long"

Jonathon Butters and Adrian Pound

update daniel best and rooks please

Luke Schwartz pushes all in over the turn bet of Marius Lietnuvinkas on a 5-J-Q-6 board

Marius calls with Q-Q

Luke flips 5-6, and his stack is crippled.

Good Luck to Jon Spinks ,Dean Pearson and John Eames.

Gemal Husnu

Adrian Pound still wearing that hurrendous 60';s WSOP shiney tracky top he was given for going out first of the $1k side event.

Think his old man must have been a Las Vegas binman...

pics of full flush pls

Rooks is going great guns 60,000+

Daniel, who I recognise as a dealer at G Luton and is pictured below has 26,000

Yes I would love to, but can't get to his table. Bear with me

Sunny "Free Rollin'" Nagi and Thomas "hitthehole/Middy" Middleton

Much appreciated,

Cos "you made a bad call, just face it"

third player "yes he should have laid down his set"

Bradshaw "I made a bad call because I lost"

Cos "I would have folded"

Bradshaw "I was sure I had you"

Cos "Not yet"

Bradshaw "I'll get you"

Cos "No you won't"

Bradshaw "I will believe you one day"


repeat ad infinitum, within my earshot

chip counts for all 300 please, thx ;)

go go baby x

James Atkin is on the same table as Luke Schwarz

He reports on the travails of FullFlush

"After the 5-6 v Q-Q where he lost most of his chips, he has doubled up three times. First with J-Q v K-Q, then Q-3 shoved into Jen Mason's 10-10 and hit trip 3's on the river, then finally 3-bet shoved 8-8 into Toby Lewis' A-A and binked an eight on the river. He is running like I know not what"

Nice table that, Toby, MC, Jen, Luke.....

Early exits

Outrageous76, Guy Johnson is here

He reports "I played a really spewy hand with Queens..."

Go on then, I tell him.

"I had QQ and flatted a raise from Rivermanl and a third player calls. Flop 9-9-5, two hearts. Riverman checks, I bet to 750, other player passes, Riverman raises to 2400, I make it 7900, Riverman tank-jams and I tank fold"

Toby Lewis 25,000

Rick Trigg 31,000, from 22,000


Meanwhile Tom Rutter makes a renewed challenge for Beanie of the Day honours, he is alongside Hoss Parhizkar from Southampton

At £1 per minute, money well spent

Surinder Sunar models his new hat, sent to him from Ireland I gather. Sadly Alan Stearn does not look too impressed

Dean Pearson "BulldozerD" on blonde

After an early position limper at 100-200 Mat Russell makes it 700 in mid position and receives three callers including Tommy Cunningham on the button

flop  5h 8s  Tc, checked to Matt he bets 1100 and Tommy is the only caller

turn  6d Matt bets 2200 and Tommy calls

River  6s Matt bets 3500 and Tommy passes saying "must be nice to make a full house on the end"

Matt flashes  3c as he takes the pot in

Here's Tommymfc on that hand

Dwayne "TheChipPrince" Owen is on the Matt Russell table, with 26,000

Any chance of getting an update on Alexander Jobling on table 46 and seat 4?

Has he managed to get anymore chips than 26,400 chips?!

Much appreciated,

Alan Stearn knocks out Jon O'Mara 77 v 66 on a Q-7-6 board



Guy Johnson out, limps utg with  4c 5c, Pab raises to 700 (for about the fifth time on the trot), button smooth calls, Guy calls

flop  Qd 4h 5s

Guy checks, Pab 1250, button flats, Guy makes it 4700 with 10,000 behind

Pab folds. button smooth calls the check raise

turn   2d

Guy open jams

Button tank calls with JJ

River  Qs. urgh.

Get James to challenge full flush to a rap battle in the break.

Puke, wtf does he think Jacks are beating there !!

Ben Turnstill, still going very well and "looking in the zone" to me

Trying to catch up with all the picture requests...

Laurence "rivermanl" Houghton

thats sick

John "Punk Floyd" Conroy

Sitting next to Dave Colclough as it happens

the limp utg?

yeh unlucky Jono

 Cos Paperestis makes it 525 in the hijack and ChipRich flat calls on the button

Andy Bradshaw shoves for 14,150 in the big blind, stands up and starts the patter

Cos counts out about half his stack, the amount necessary to call, and looks like he is seriously considering it

Eventually he passes, Rich passes and Andy sits down with a smirk the size of a very large smirk, claiming King-Queen

These two have been at it all day

half the field going on a buffet break now, while the other half plays the next hour

Karabiner reports he has hardly played a hand, once found KK on the big blind and got a walk. Not feeling too well, sadly, so off for some fresh air

James Sudworth bets out on a  Jh Kh Jd board and Nick Hicks calls in position

Sudworth bets 2500 into a 3500 pot on a  6h turn

Hicks calls

On the  8c river Sudworth checks, Hicks checks

Sudworth shows  6s 4s, Hicks flips   Ks Tc to scoop

So close parents, so close.

Any news on Ian Woodley please?

Any chance of some chip counts from table 32 please.

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

Nirvana update please Rich.

Narciso saved his great moment for when I went to check on his chips

He check calls a bet from Robert Cowen on a  5d 9d Jh board

He check calls the turn of  2d

He then check calls the over-bet shove on the  5h river

He shows  Jd Jc as Cowen mucks unshown, exiting the competition


Narciso, who appears to have stolen his mother's tea cosy from the kitchen table and placed it atop his cranium, now has over 60,000

Now then, to find a photographer who can actually focus the camera, sigh

He then check folded the  5d river and was shown  Kc Ac

Brent Horner up to 78,000 as he goes off for his dinner break

"You must have won a big hand?" I say to the Leeds man, his bouffant hair more luxuriant each time I see him

"Yes" he says "a Christmas present really"

"I had 8-8 utg and made it 800. The button makes it 3000, the small blind smooth calls and I call with 32,000 behind

Flop  Qd 3d 8c

Small blind checks, I check, button makes it 4500

Small blind calls, I make it 15,000. The button shoves for 30,000 total"

"Aces? Kings?" I enquire knowingly...

"You'd think so" he says "but no, Ace-King off"

All I can muster is an "Oh" as Brent chuckles softly

LOL Rich (TightEnd) is doing the updates, buy him a bowl of cheesy chips and he will do anything you ask ;)


Save the LARGE JD & Ginger for the 300 weekends :)

Daniel Best meanwhile was down to 12,000 after a "big lay down with Kings"

He then shoved with Jh Jc to be met with a re-shove and a re-re-shove behind him

Coat half on and nearly out the door, he was up against  Ad Ac and  Ks Kc

board ran out  Kh Qh 9s  3h  7h to treble him up to where he is now at over 30,000

Guys, any chance of an update on James 'Cottonbud' Williams, 'honest' John Gardner, Adrian 'The Rock' Pound and Adam Collins please? All from the KC club in Swindon!!

Sorry Rich and everyone else - I was mystery last minute volunteer/updater yesterday afternoon when there wasn't any weather ...... and then the snows came - and I decided a trip to Nottingham, with no room for the night, and a trip back again in the wee small hours with potential of more ice and snow was not a good idea...  :(

As it is you are doing a fantastic job, and my misreads, mis pronounciations, and mistery identifications of non attending celebrity players such as Gazza may not have made your day any easier..... I would however have been fascinated by Luke revving up his engine in the car park. I really feel a photo is in order please...! x

So no both LeKnave and Tommy still in, maybe some counts left off the dtd site  when I copied it across

Ben Vinson has knocked out William Martin

Paul Pab Foltyn is making progress up over 60,000

One of the chip leaders is Scott Thacker, pictured below next to John Exley. Just lost a 30,000 pot to Barry Neville though with second nut flush versus nut flush in spades on a spade turn and river

The Jen Mason/Toby Lewis table has broken, and she has moved to the right of Stuart Rutter and RED DOG, with Brent Horner round the back. Indeed you could say she's moved to the right of a rock and a hard place.

Jen has 18,000, about half average

Danny "UptheMariners" Rudd is indeed here, below average stack..but still Grimsby's finest.

Michigan Jeff Buffenbarger is here, though his mood has blackened a little when being on the wrong end of a 50,000 chip pot with James Tomlin this level

Tighty, all Ed Hardy hoodies should discounted from Hoodie of the day.

As we enter level 7 300-600/50 with 232 remaining I am taking five. It's subtropical in here, and subzero outside. Something midway between the two would be ideal....!

talk amongst yourselves

Good luck to Jason, met him last week in Galway, came 3rd to MC in the 500, top bloke.

Also good luck to all the Shrewdies. Nice to see Brent and Rooks with nice stacks.

This is the ever dangerous Paul Rayner. Ever dangerous. Lunatic. Aggressive and dangerous. Lunatic. Dangerous.  :D

Cheers Rich... Any update on John Gardner, Adrian Pound and James Williams?? KC ftw!!

ah bad timing! john out...

LOL. Played against him for the 1st time not so long ago at the mini GUKPT at Coventry. It was one of the most active tables I've ever played at. Mainly because Paul rarely peeped down at his hole cards and saw 2 he didn't like the look of!

I got chatting to him there over the 2 days and he seemed a really nice guy. He's certainly got some gamble in him!!!!

Full chip counts to follow at the end of the break I hope.

Karabiner has made a comeback from 17,000 to 27,000. This is good news. Worse news is that he is running out of tissues and sneezing like a good un

sorry, apparently not. End of the day for them.

How greek doing please

Cos Paperestis 65,000

John Eames 60,000

Rich Hare 25,000

RED-DOG 60,000 "That's plenty for me, tough table have got Brent to my left who is active and hitting cards. Just got to get to the end of the day and see where we are"

Brent Horner 90,000. Going well

RookieITB 70,000 still, been a bit becalmed for a level or two

Updates on Jon 'Looofsea' Spinks and Dean 'Bulldozer' Pearson plz?

Quite a hand here

Mark Westbrook raises to 3600 utg

Paul Rayner flats as does the button

Rick Trigg pushes for 14,000 more from the big blind

Westbrook calls

Rayner calls!

Button passes

So we have a three way coup and a 60,000 side pot for starters

flop  Tc 4c Ts

Westbrook pushes

Rayner beats him into the pot for a 80,000 main pot, and 140,000 in total

Triggs flips  Kh Kc

Westbrook  Js Jh

Rayner  Th 7d

turn and river  6d 3h

and Paul Rayner becomes an enormous chip leader

Paul Ratchford doubles through Julian Thew, now out, with 10 10 on a 4-5-10-6-3 Board..60,000 pot

As I said, he rarely sees hole cards he doesn't like the look of.

Liam Bullock 16,000

BOK! taken a huge hit, down to dust unfortunately

ul trigg

Alex Martin's table has broken and the line up on his new table reads, in order

Alex Martin
Jen Mason
Stuart Rutter
Tom McCready
Brent Horner
Lucy Rokach

Off to investigate!

+1 trigg ul - redic hand yo

How does he call the push with 10,7 there ????

update on Scott Summerfield please, and advise him he's been blinded out in the Ace of Clubs snowball, a slightly smalller buyin and prize pool

Karl Mahrenholz is up over 100,000

UTG pushed a shortstack in for 8,000

Karl flat calls with KK

The button makes it 20,000 with AQ

Karl shoves, button calls

Karl makes Quad Kings.

hey hey, could i plz get chip counts on dan rudd, chris o'donnell, seb powel, toby lewis and chris brammer?? cheers mate

Great solo update Rich. Much apprecitated from those, like me, who wish they could be there. Too many blondes to wish well too but one time a Shrewdie or Bedi/Blatch please.

Any news or photos of James Williams if possible? Thanks in advance!

Dan Rudd 23,000

Seb Powell 90,000

Toby Lewis 35,000

Chris Brammer 70,000

Chris O'Donnell 42,000


RookieITB 80,000


Pab gets it in with  Ahrt Qd against  Ac 7c on a  7h 8c Tc flop

He rivers one of his two Queen Outs to double to 30,000

James cotonbud Williams 23,000. Next to him Jon Spinks is one of the chip leaders with 140,000

Neil Blatchly has been solid all day, currently 50,000

any chip counts and pictures on barry neville and paul rayner pls

Paul Rayner Gazillions. Estimate 300,000 though allow a bit of rounding error on that, he's moving them about like its the last poker competition he is ever going to play

Barry Neville 60,000

Stuart Hopkin who has been short all day, just out as is Alexandra Jackson-Palin who never rose above her starting stack either

Justin "Byronkincaid" O'Shaughnessy 71,000

Jen Mason 40,000. Adam Goulding 30,000. Just raised pre-flop in the cut off, was called by the big blind and c-bet a A-Q-A board and flashed me  3d when the blind passed, cheeky Beagle

Paul Ratchford on Jen's table has over 100,000

Daniel Best recovering to 40,000

James Keys, it being one of the delights of this strong field that I have only just discovered him in the ninth level, such are the number of people to keep an eye on, is dangerous with over 120,000

chip count matt perrins please

25,000 as of a few moments ago. Been below average all day

Exits include Rupinder Bedi, David Jones and Paul Ho, sadly

alex joblin pic pls.

ul jones, how is tommyc doin plz?

I join the action with Brent Horner betting 4,500 into a 6,000 pot (presumably raised pre by Brent in the cut off, and called) on the turn of a

 Qd 7h 4c Qh board

The big blind Suzanne Gilbert flat calls

On the  9h river Suzanne leads for 7,500


After a considerable dwell, a quizzical smile etched over Brent's boyish features, Brent calls

Showdown

Suzanne  7c 8c

Brent  Ad 7d to scoop with the Ace kicker

He has 120,000 currently

Pic of Spinks with his mahoosive stack of mirrions of chips plz.

Tommy Cunningham has 70,000 which is a nice recovery

Also doing better Dwayne Owen The Chip Prince with 50,000

Sadly EvilPie Matt Russell is struggling 20,000 and looking intensely frustrated. Paul Rayner joining his table next to him cannot have helped, fewer spots to go at.

gogogogogo BH

thanks tightend.

Again? I'm such a soft touch

Alex still going well over 125,000 and as we can see attracting the attentions of a player on the next table

Looks like he has picked up a few sponsors after his recent bink, mbn.

Great updates Tighty, do you think there will be done by 1am tommorow so you can watch the Dallas game?

Dean Pearson, BulldozerD from Leeds is on 120,000

How?

Well he raised with 88 UTG picked up SIX callers

flopped a set, and got it in against top pair and a lower set to triple up.

Must be very nice indeed.

MBN indeed! Goooooooooo Deano!

Nine 75 minute levels starting at 2pm tomorrow. I will have to ask the nice DTD people to put it on here. Or not, if recent form is a reliable guide to the likely result

Battery out on the camera for today, so that's your lot on pics til tomorrow I am afraid


Meanwhile Neil Blatchly is up to 90,000


Level 10 is starting the last level of the night. 159 remain

Glenn Henderson is down to 40,000 sitting next to Rich Hare struggling with 25,000

Glenn tells me he "has been raise-folding for England" on his table

I reply that he clearly learned everything he knew from me and am most perturbed when he took me seriously!

cheers TightEnd! top updates! how come Kev is not doing the updates? was it at DTDs request? just with it being a 3 day comp do you think they were worried about the cost of feeding him for 3 days!?

Jane said 'NO'

yeah and tighty obviously eats less!!!

I'd love to do more updates, but rarely have weekend's free to do them. I said to Kev I'd spell him for this weekend as I was actually free. Chance to earn a bit of cash too.

Thanks for the chip count on Kai. Could you also check on Henrik Eklund table 22.

Adrian is clinging on with 16,000

Superb stamina by Kev there, that's some solo Update.

What a field, too!

Two seriously class acts near the head of the field - Steve Jekenik & Nick Hicks, but dozens of tidy players everywhere you look - Shrewdies, blondes, Hit-Squadders, Team Saga (Ralph & Tom) & even a nipper or two. I wish them all well. Well, most of them.

Flushy & Dubai exited early, one assumes?

they dont have me down on the chip counts,
138k

gl Blatch, Ant The Teeside Champ Arlott and Stacy, bring it home to Leicester

Always a good day when you finish with one 100 chip more than the oracle.

So glad to get off my first table which was gonna be hard as the blinds got big.

[ ] Being sandwiched between Ben Vinson and John Eames is fun.

Is it true you swapped addresses, so you can send an Xmas Card to Andy B?

Let's doooooooooo this.

gL all Blondes esp the Jew looking greek guy.

P.s Dave Jones and Tom Rutter are soooo bad at poker.

lets gogogogo bh, oracle, shrewdie and fatman.

Hello everyone and welcome back to DTD from me and my friend

I'm quite pleased really, the Leicester game at Cardiff has been postponed, which means I can make the re-arranged game for Different League Ground visit number 86, it being a new stadium

That apart, I joined Neil Blatchly at 2.30am last night in a quite protracted defrosting the windscreen process on our respective cars. He, being a balla type, was using an Amex Platinium card to do so with one hand whilst with the other he was trading US College Basketball on his laptop via Betfair. Very impressive. I used my RAC recovery card, and got the job done in exactly the same time. Yah boo to you Blatch!

[  ] lies

I had BV on my immediate right for the last three levels yesterday.

[ ] I thoroughly enjoyed it

[X] I am hoping for a redraw today

Have a few of the pics from last night to put up, as the battery went dead late on

Lets begin with Blatch hmself. Rumour has it that all he has on his IPod is self improvement speeches. As I walked past he was listening to "I must learn how to understand Betfair better".

 

Toby Lewis and the superlatively consistent Nick Hicks. I expect both to feature strongly today

Another top player, the strangely attired considering it was very hot in here last night, Nik Persaud

About 12 hours ago a picture was requested of Jon "LUAFC/Bas" Spinks. Better late than never

First came across Mr Spinks when he played a few APAT events, and he was different gravy then a few years ago. Good winner online I gather, and a prominent member of the EMS forum. I also expect him to be in the shake up. Unfortunately for him though, he still supports Leeds United, which is a cross he has to bear throughout his life.

Great work yesterday tighty - really good updates


Gogogogogog BH - nice stack buddy  -gl

GL to all others i know  - will be keeping up with this later on today

Also GLGLGLGL to tommy MFC in the 300 today - no justice yesterday - i can feel some binkage coming on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Remember for those of you local enough at 3.30pm this afternoon there is a £300 NLHE Freezeout, capped at 270 runners

Right then that's me caught up. Off for a bit of downtime before we kick off at 2pm. Please rejoin me then

DTD website says 2.30 start time

Will there be a guarentee? how many runners do you expect to play?

2.30pm is correct by the way, my mistake

No guarantee that I am aware of, currently 23 registered. No idea how many to expect. What do you think? 75? 100?

gl to mitch the ginger warrior for today.
go easy on the cheesecake tho as the routine of poker, cheesecake, sleep, poker, cheesecake,sleep, poker, cheesecake, sleep catches up with even the best of us athletes.

i doubt that they will get many runner! maybe 100

I think they should do some omaha tourneys during the festivals maybe a 100 plo

Players taking their seats. As ever on a Day 2, early action should be brisk as the short-stacks ship it in

Go go go beagle, take it down!

(http://www.carolannjohnson.com/Crufts_D4.281_Hound_Grp_Winner_Beagle_ow_.jpg)

What, please, is this?

Brought in today by a player well known to many of you as a gift for a member of staff....


Guess away....

Cranberry sauce.

Good luck, seb, toby, brammer
and chris!

Chip Rich Hare pushes, Neil Blatchly re-raises to isolate

Heads up, Rich A-9 off, Neil 9-9, which holds on a Q-8-10-6-5 board and eliminates Rich.

gl Red Dog......take it down :)

Couldn't play the £1000 but I've made it down to play the £300.

gl to all blondes :)

Kai Paulsen, auditioning for the latest Curiousity Killed the Cat Tribute band about to hit the scene

It's good, but it's not right

Is it some sort of Sloe

Yes Maureen, Sloe what?

got a strong fancy brent gonna scooooooooop

Tighty, you are THE fuinniest man sometimes, the humour in here is awesome. Subtle, too. ;)

...roll

The very talented Ben Vinson takes down another pot whilst the very old Karabiner looks enthralled to be playing alongside him. He has his hands full with the active Ben taking the lead next to him

Sebastian Powell

Not that I am saying that Sebastian is vain, but this is my fourth attempt to get a picture of him before he was even vaguely happy to send me on my way.

For what he is about to receive, he is truly thankful. Chip leader Steve Jelinek

pic of alex jobling plz

when am i gunna learn to take % in friends....

Jason Clarke from Milton Keynes. Second and third ranked player in Milton Keynes in fact.

$muscle$ on here

Great updates as usual.

What time does day two start and can I have updates on John Conroy please mate.

Rich - pack it in! I'm in stitches here.

Brilliant stuff, brilliant.

Our hero, Brent Horner. Played great yesterday. Only owns one tracksuit top though, and possesses a very eccentric pair of headphones

It's underway, and yes I'll keep you in touch with Mr Conroy's progress

Here's Chris Brammer, raking in another pot after 4-betting the Mad Turk Yucel Eminoglou to win the pot


Railed yesterday by his Dad Paul, who looked every inch the proud parent, Chris is putting together an impressive sequence of results I am expecting a final table run in this. However he continues to show a very Millet-esque taste in shirts, something that one can only hope changes with maturity.

Best of luck to Scott Summerfield from Ace of Clubs today.

Thanks for the updates so far Rich, keep up the good work and a few of us from AoC will see you on the rail later tonight.

Oh boy


Paul Rayner raises the button and Pete Charalambous re-raises from the small blind. Rayner calls

flop  4h 8s 9h

Pete checks, Rayner 12,000, Charalambous check raises to 25,000 called

turn  4c check, 25,000 bet, all in from Charalambous for about 150,000 total

CALL! says Rayner

Charalambous flips  Ad Ahrt

Rayner flips  4s 2s

river  9d

Rayner once more moves into a big chip lead

Cos Paperestis is OUT

Firstly he chopped a 100,000 pot all in pre Aces against Ace-King off

Then the button raised into him for the third round in a row, he pushed with  6s 9s in the small blind and the button had Aces, which held

wtf :o

Hre's the view directly behind Rayner on the right and Charalambous on the left as the flop comes on that crucial hand

The ever focussed and usually inscrutable John Conroy.

Not easy to remain inscrutable when sat next to a man with a tea cosy on his head for hours at a stretch

The £300 has 99 runners. 88 left.

Paul Rayner limps for 2,000

Narciso Baldo raises to 6,000

Robert Charlton re-raises to 16,000 from the button

Rayner flat calls the 16,000

Baldo folds

flop Q-6-K

Rayner leads out ALL IN for 94,000 having lost most of his stack recently

Tank Call (a long time in the tank too) with A-Q from Charlton

Rayner shows K-4 diamonds (!) to go over 200,000.

Any news on ChipPrince tighty??

chip counts on pkr sponsored(shud make it easier to find them no >?) pros henrik eklund and kai danilo paulsen please......

He is suspiciously Welsh sounding.

Nick Hicks calls a raise from John Bousfield with 2-2,  and flops a set on a Nine high board

Nick Check raises Bousfield, and Bousfield re-raises. Nick ships it, and the Bousfield calls with Q-Q to double him up



Jason Clarke OUT. In the small blind, button raises to 5200, Clarke raises to 16,700 with 10-10, the button shoves, Jason calls. Button has A-J and spikes to win a 130,000 pot

lol rayners pure com, minimum limps every hand, usually limp/calls cause everyone desperate to get into a Heads up pot with him. When he had 260k at 600/1200 i was offering 6/1 on him cashing. He's a nice bloke though and an utter gambler so i wont begrudge him going deep. Pretty sure someones gonna take his stack in the next 60mins tho.
