Early DTD Qualifier action

Gurdeu Millan raises on the button

Craig Stephens in the small blind re-raises

Gurdeu 4-bets

Craig 5 bet fist pump shove jams (ok terminology kids?)

Gurdeu folds KK face up

Craig shows, kindly, AA


Gurdeu has done over half his stack and has gone for a walk "just to get me head round that I've had that five minutes into the competition"

With 707 runners in the field we've now broken the Irish Open record. 696 remain mid way through Level 2


Some chip counts


Dewi James with 12,000 is sitting next to Snooker's Ken Docherty with 11,000

The Camel has 13,000 chatting merrily to Roland DeWolfe on the next table (90 minutes into his current massage) 12,000

Wadey Ashraf 20,000 when I just popped past

John Eames 9,000 and a study in concentration

Ali Mallu 9,000 but eyes flitting everyhwere, fidgetting in his seat. No blackjack tables here Mr Mallu!

Rumit Somaiya 11,000

Kara Scott 9,000

Greek Jack Dionysiou for DTD 13,000

Brian BAM Martin 9,000

Nik Persaud of BlackBelt over 20,000

The Mole 13,000 sitting two to the left of Richard Chufty Ashby 11,000.Same table Barney Boatman 8,000

Chris Moorman 8,000

Post by: TightEnd on April 02, 2010, 05:31:26 PM
Wadey is doing well and glowing.  He is upto 17k after turning the nut flush but on a paired board and by playing Aces sneekily but perhaps didn't need to be so cheeky as his opponent had Kings.

Wadey "I got a feeling about this one Maria, yeah, I got a gooood feeling!"

Cossy pants on about 7k after holding Queens v Kings and telling me in Greek which was quite amusing as Feldman was straining to listen in lol.

Post by: TightEnd on April 02, 2010, 05:32:30 PM
I arrive as Praz Banzi check calls on a J-7-6 board to a 1500 bet from neighbour Jim O'Callaghan (right of your picture), which is a pot sized bet

On the 10 turn Banzi checks and O'Callaghan fires out an over-bet of 6,500, more or less setting Banzi in

Banzi immediately folds Q-Q  face up and O'Callaghan shows  K-K


Title: Re: Irish Open Days One to Three: At a Glance
Post by: TightEnd on April 02, 2010, 05:53:40 PM
Iwan Jones (oioisaveloy on blonde) feels he is now "free-rolling"

Why?


Well first he flopped a set of sixes but ran into Ross Boatman's flopped straight

Escaping with only minor damage he played 55 in early position and saw an unraised flop of

4-7-7 against Big blind Rene Bradza

Bradza bet, Jones raised and Bradza called

It went check-check on the 10 turn

The river came a 5

Bradz led out for 1,000, Jones made it 3,100 leaving himself 3,100 back and obviously calling anything

Bradza flat called


Jones reports "so obviously I must have him, lovely river. I flip over my house and go to rake in the pot at which point he turns over 10-10!"

Left with 3,000 then, Iwan thinks anything from here is a bonus


Title: Re: Irish Open Days One to Three: At a Glance

We're on a twenty minute break here

Title: Re: Irish Open Days One to Three: At a Glance
Post by: TightEnd on April 02, 2010, 06:30:00 PM
Cos Greekstein had a near double up to 16k just before the break.

A lady had limped 100 utg and Cos bumped it up to 275 from the cutoff.  Lady makes it 1k, Cos takes a flop:

K-J-3

check, check

Turn: A

Lady fires out 2k, Cos calls

River 10

Lady checks, Cos fires out 4,875 leaving about 1k behind in change.  After some dwellage the lady painfully called to show a flopped set of Kings and Cos sheepishly got out of jail on the river and tabled A-Q for the straight!!

I too haven't found many big pots, even with 60 tables to choose from. Pot luck whether you happen to be in the right place at the right time



In news, Greek Stein has been moved two to Channing's left, and still looks confident on over 30,000

Keith The Camel Hawkins also has over 30,000 and I saw him raise pre-twice and take down both pots uncontested post-flop with continuation bets


DTD Qualifier Jonathan Butters approaches 20,000, with Gurdu Millan still nursing a short-stack

Also short and clinging on is Iwan Jones, back to 5,500


Roland De Wolfe 12,000

Tim Blake back to his 10,000 starting stack


Jen Mason who is on the same table as legend Donnacha O'Dea is going onto the feature table next

Flip Flop Brownsden up to 16,000 


Title: Re: Irish Open Days One to Three: At a Glance

Keith Hawkins 50,000. Difficult to tell for sure but around and about the chip leader from a quick scoot round the tables


Title: Re: Irish Open Days One to Three: At a Glance
Post by: TightEnd on April 02, 2010, 08:15:09 PM
Praz Bansi & Javed Abrahams are both out and both looking for flights to "get out if this bokd country"

They kinda mirrored each other, both getting there short stacks back to over 10k.

Praz 3 bet with AhKh and got a shove from a similar stack which Praz called and couldn't beat pocket 7's.

Javed 3 bet with A10 and ran into Jacks.

Ross Boatman makes it 900 in the cut off and Lise Vigezzi (who I recognised from, I think, series of Late Night Poker) re-raised on the button to 2,100

Ross then makes it 4,500 to go and Lise insta-ships for 15,000.

Ross calls as quickly as a fireman going down his station pole


Ross A-A

Lise A-K

The board comes out a harmless, for Ross, J-2-4-J-3 and Boatman moves into the 50,000's

Keith Hawkins is up to 75,000 as his flight departs for its dinner break


"they play a bit funny over here" he says

"well you seem to be coping with it ok" I say and he describes a recent key hand


"There is an Early position raiser and a cold caller. I have Aces in the big blind. I pump it up. Original raiser passes and the caller flats me. Flop 8-9-10 and we manage to get it all in. He shows Q-10. At this point the original raiser tells the table he passed J-J. I fade the outs, but wouldn't have faded Jacks which would have won the 45,000 pot"

DTD Qualifier Gurdeu Millan has had an eventful Irish Open so far.

Down to 2,300 he fought his way upto 8k and then had a beauty with Aces V Kings on an all diamond flop.

Both players held a diamond and all the money went in right there and then.  Milllan now on 33k, what a comeback!


Jen Mason up to 36k.

I caught the end of an odd hand.  Mark Wright had moved to Dan Harrington's table about an hour a go, he says he hadn't played one hand prior to this one.

With a 7k stack at the start of the hand, Dan went all in the turn for about 3k. The board was

  Jh 8c 3d 8h

Matey who was all in with the call, indeed made the call with  Ks 8s. 

Dan tabled  5s 6s with a few raised and furrowed brows from his table mates. No out to help Dan possible and he is outski.

All of them are pretty tired, but all four pots I saw while taking a quiet nosey over there were three and four bet.

DTD Qualifier Tony Millan just lost a good chunk of his chips but is still left with about 19k.

I only arrived at the river with the board reading:

 9h 8c 7s  Qc 6d

Millan's oppo went all in on the river for 13k and with Millan holding  Th Td, the river 6 pretty much ensured the call.

Matey had  Jd Ts for the flopped straight!

Moorman1 late exit

Chris had been involved in a few pots prior to this hand so probably was down to around 20k.

I only got there on a flop of

 Js 4s 3d

Chris bet out 2,700 and his neighbour 3bet to 14k practically putting chris all in, he called, on their backs.

Chris  Tc Ts
Matey  Aspades 5s

Turn:  2d
River:  Kc

Thats it for the moominster.

So that's it for DAY 1 guys, me and tighty are just left feeling thankful that there is no DAY1b tomorrow :)

With no exact figures in just yet, we are looking at approx 250 players returning tomorrow at 2pm.

There will also be a seat redraw for Day2.

Refreshed and raring to go tomorrow with a lot less tables to manouvre through, we should be able to pick out more of the action from specific players.

Remember guys we are here to help you too so get your requests in nice and early for anyone you want us to focus on.

Full chip count to follow in the morning.

Goodnight all!!!

DTD Qualifier wise the following players are left

Butters Jonothon 44,550 8 6
Herbert Jason 25,475 17 5
Ashrafÿÿ ÿ Waheed 20,800 21 4
Millan Tony 19,500 21 2

This promises to be a very exciting day. We have The Camel in the chip lead, where he was for most of yesterday. The very talented blonde legend Jen Mason is lurking just behind, and she was certainly sounding very confident at the end of play yesterday.

Elswhere the likes of railtard1, 810ofclubs, GreekStein, RobS, FlipFlop Brownsden, BAM and JaffaCake are all in with a shout for blondes. I know they'd appreciate your support this afternoon and onwards


All you need to do is shout them on, request information from us and we'll (it being easier to get hands on 25 tables rather than 70) do the rest

One of the DTD Qualifiers was a certain Jason Herbert who we didn't look out for yesterday because we heard he sold his seat to his friend. Indeed he did but he did play the event due to winning "2 or 3" seats, hence the paddy power shirt alongside his DTD badge.

Jason Herbert - 25, 475

Marc Wright (railtard1) makes it 1,800 on the button.  Small blind Yann Dion 3bets to 4,800, Marc flats.  Flop:

 4c 7h 4d  check check

Turn:  3c  Yann leads for half the pot, Marc called.

River:  Ad  Yann bets out 12k and sends Marc to tankcity.

He eventually calls the 12k and gets show pockets ACES from Yann.

Channing has now rollercoasterd his way OUT of the Irish Open.  He was bemoaning the fact that they chose a feature table with no player having above avergae chips!  I believe his exit was A5 v A6 whilst turning a 5 but not liking the 6 on the river.

There is now a new feature table with Keith Hawkins (the camel) and Iwan Jones who has done a great come back job.

Stu Rutter is positively flush.  He has gone from 5k to 24k whilst being all in 5 times and winning 3 of them.

He also knocked out Paul Gourlay with AJ v KJ and left Gourlay reeling after just hearing about the free drinks in the players lounge.  It's ok, Paul can probably just buy out the entire bar!!

Cos was upto 82k down to 65k and now currently residing on 72k.  With table mates big stacked Ross Boatman, Ben Roberts & the WSOP near final tablist John Magill, I suspect things will be lively.

Julian steady on 17k
Jen slightly up 95k and staying quiet.
Ben Dobson  20k

Post by: Chili on April 03, 2010, 04:38:24 PM
James Mithcell battled pre flop with his oppo's 20k stack but came up against QUEENS which were triumphant v his JACKS.

He still has 3 tall stacks behind (very descriptive I know lol).

-------------------------------------------------------------

The organisers tell me that "in theory" we shall be playing 6 levels today.  

If we hit the money at 72 players though, the day will definately come to a stop!

Currently 170 players remaining.

Post by: Chili on April 03, 2010, 04:50:37 PM
Marc Wright is OUT.

He lost a big pot to his neighbour who he tangled with earlier.  Marc held JQ on a 10 9 6 flop but his oppo held J10 and held.

That hand left him with 3 bigs so he shoved with A9 and the big blind checked down his 74 to take the pot and the scalp of our railtard1.


Title: Re: Irish Open Days One to Three: At a Glance
Post by: TightEnd on April 03, 2010, 04:53:31 PM
DTD Qualifier Tony Millan is out

Frustrated he tells me he moved table, first hand sitting down he got dealt KK on a misdeal. Next hand he defends in the big blind with QJ. Q high flop two clubs, the raiser with AcKc turns a flush, money in on the flop

That leaves Jonathn Butters with 50,000 and Jason Herbert with 40,000 flying the DTD flag



Jeff Kimber is out. He tells me "The lunatic on the table manages to find Aces on my big blind. I defend with Q-10, 10 high flop sinks me"

The lunatic is Dublin's Thomas "The Bomber" Nolan. I must stress that it is The Bomber with a capital "B". He's about ten pints into today and I wasn't going to argue with him

Post by: TightEnd on April 03, 2010, 04:54:11 PM
Chip leader, I think, is Ciaran Taggart. 150,000 or so

"Who is he?" I enquire of my Irish blogger counterparts

I am told

"Young lad, was a dealer and got put into a few tournaments. Tore them up, gave up poker dealing and here he is"


He finished 3rd in the Green Joker Shorthanded, which is his major result to date

Stuart Rutter comes across a Nutter, sends his heart aflutter


Stuart Rutter raises to 3,000 utg, blinds 600-1200

Michael Mazilu next to act announces "All in" for 90,000. Michael is European, wearing a bright Ferrari F1 Jacket, sunglasses and has the sort of spray on orange tan that suggests that if in doubt, you should call him


Stuart asks him "So you have Ace-King"

Michael says "Yes"

Stuart visibly flinches, laughs and I think he believes him, anything is possible Stuart's body language is saying


Stuart eventually says "I have to call" which with Q-Q, 20,000 left and the blinds going through he probably does

Mazilu the Ferrari man flips Ad10d, misses and Stuart doubles up to 50,000


Title: Re: Irish Open Days One to Three: At a Glance
Post by: Chili on April 03, 2010, 06:21:20 PM
Jen Mason adds another 35k to her stack.  A chap made it 3,800 to play, Jen 3bets to 8,500, matey makes it 20k leaving only about 8k behind.

Jen does tank a little bit but eventually says CALL rather than all-in to put the guy all in.  They agree to get it all in pre-though and matey is gutted to see Jen's JACKS seeing as he has TENS.  No drama's as the board runs out

Some local player news


Alan Trueick is the chip leader after taking A-Q versus Michael Murphy's J-J and seeing the sort of flop you quite like when racing overs v pair: A-A-5


The magnificently named Zsomber Gall was far from sombre, or galled, when he bust Peter Krikkay's K-K with 4-4 on a 10-4-2 board. Krikkay had raised in E-P and Zsomber called on the button


Peter Murphy (Irish, who'd have thought?) cracked the Aces of Samuel Lehtonen (Finnish, finished) with K-10 that turned two pair on an innocuous looking board 


Title: Re: Irish Open Days One to Three: At a Glance

Toby Lewis has just busted, after getting lower than his 100k high.  All in preflop with 77's but up against QQ.  A queen on the flop sealed the deal and Toby busts in about 78th just 6 players shy of the money.

There are now 77 players left and the announcement just tells us that we will now play on until we reached 72 players.


Title: Re: Irish Open Days One to Three: At a Glance
Post by: Chili on April 03, 2010, 11:33:47 PM
Obv with 8 tables playing hand for hand it is kinda sloooooow.

We have had our first all in and call. It was raised in early position to 5,200. Called by one of the chip leaders Janne Nevalainen.  His neighbour Esref Govsa with 35k more went all in.  The original raiser passes and Janne is left to dwell, not really wanting to call.  I think his chip stack dictated his eventual call plus possibly the fact of 5 TV camera's shoved in his face.  Anyway

Janne had  Kh 7h
Esref had  Qs Qh

The board came  4d 4h 6d 5s with some ooooooo's from the crowd, then  2s

Esref doubles and the bubble continues with 2 more still to bust.


Title: Re: Irish Open Days One to Three: At a Glance
Post by: TightEnd on April 03, 2010, 11:52:59 PM
Anthony Reilly pushes with Aces

Jannie Neuvelainen makes another interesting call with Jh9h

board comes 5-7-7h-Qh-5h and Reilly is out in 74th

Now the real hand for hand can start!


Title: Re: Irish Open Days One to Three: At a Glance
Post by: Chili on April 04, 2010, 12:11:07 AM
Cos seamed to be flowing and taking advantage of the bubble, with 10k here and there he bumped his stack up to 127k.

Then this happened:

Ben Roberts raised to 6k in middle position, Anthony Kennedy calls in the hijack, COS bumps it up form the bb to 16,900.

Ben passes and Kennedy insta calls Cos.

Flop:  Ks 2h 8d its check by Kennedy, Cos bets out 10k, Kennedy goes all in for another 16k more.  Cos passed!!

Kennedy showed pocket eights for the set!


Title: Re: Irish Open Days One to Three: At a Glance
Post by: Chili on April 04, 2010, 12:31:41 AM
The bubble situation has been so bizarre and mental I'll try and explain it.

On Camel and Ste Kings table, Michael Odderskjer had passed for 2 hours and left himself with 1 BIG BLIND - 3K.

He CALLED all in with  Qh 4d even though he had another 5 hands until the blinds got to him.  Obviously the hand went 5 way and they all checked it down to the river.  Board was:

 9d Kc Js 6s 6h

Ste King flipped his cards over and already shown that he had  Kd 5d for top pair.  The shortie now knows he is OUT but the TV wont let him leave because they wanted to set up the live feed. It must have been 10 MINUTES they made that poor bloke wait at the table. He hadn't actually  turned his hand over until he was told too after all that time. 

Upon showing his Q4 off, mouths dropped.  Pah, oh well.

Michael Odderskjer is the actual bubble boy.


Title: Re: Irish Open Days One to Three: At a Glance
Post by: Chili on April 04, 2010, 01:25:35 AM
Lastly from me, on the very last hand of the night.  Nik Persaud is involved in a mental triple up to now have cira 130,000.
I missed all the preflop action, I wish I had seen it:

On a flop of  4d Td 8d

80 yr old Paddy Hicks bets 10k, Janne Neuvelainen went all in, Nik Persaud went all in too for about 40k & Paddy calls for about 70k.

On their backs:

Nik  8c 4s
Paddy  Ad Kc
Janne  Kd 3d 

So Janne second nuts and ahead, Paddy drawing to the nut flush and Persaud two pair.

Turn ........ Th




RIVER.......... Tc

Paddy's side pot goes to Janne and Persaud a happpppy bunny!!


I'm off and goodnight until tomorrow!

So by my reckoning 14 of the 60 odd remaining are fighting the good fight for the Brits


Keith "The Camel" Hawkins. Day One chip leader and good chips all day yesterday with a steady progression

James Mitchell. Consistent Live MTT Winer, BlackBelt Poker player

Andrew Miles, from Southampton. Frequent visitor to DTD and regular GUKPT player

Ben Roberts. Veteran Live Cash player at the Vic, many TV appearances, big final tables too

Jason Herbert. DTD Online qualifier, great track record in ireland

Rob Sherwood. blonde Rob S from Manchester. Very successful Online MTT palyer, much of it on the blonde Poker card-room

Nik Persaud. Black Belt Poker shareholder/owner with Neil Channing. Cionsistent track record in big field Live MTTs

Ste King, Liverpudlian Online MTT player

Mad Marty Wilson. Veteran Live player, established TV format TD for Matchroom

Jen Mason. Blonde shareholder, Black belt Poker employee. Great game, final tabled the Waterford festival that blonde ran.

Cos Paparestis. GreekStein. Might be a donk lol, but lets hope he goes deep! Not least for those of you with percentages

Anthony Kennedy. Walsall Live player. Railed all day yesterday by Mickey Wernick, interestingly enough

Ross Boatman. Described to his face yesterday by Maria (I'm tactful, me) Demetriou as "my third favourite mobster". Actor, Hendon Mob veteran, but a very solid record in big events too

Stuart Rutter. blonde Member, sponsored Pro, good blogger, fine player


Good luck to all of them, and please post your support and encouragement on the Interactive thread. I know, because a number took their time to tell me yesterday, that such messages are seen and really appreciated.

THere is action all over the place:

Ste King faces a 40k on the river of  Kd Js Th 4d 4s.

With about 40k in the pot already, he folded and was rewarded by being shown the JACKS of Sean Van Slujis.

----------------------------------------------------

Francisco Torres Her doubles upto 65k

-----------------------------------------------------

Adrian O'Donoghu didn't look at his cards and was all in for 8k.  Liam Flood called with  Jh 8h.  Adrian flipped KINGS one at a time lol. Doubles.

------------------------------------------------------

Miloslav Vachulka doubles to 40k through Keith Hawkins with 88's v JQ.

Classic Hand:

Ste King had previously done about 25k to Sean Van Slujis on his right.  This hand, Sean raised the button, Ste shoved his  7h 3h from the small blind BUT Andy Black woke up with  Kh Kd in the big blind!!  Andy had 52,400 which was just a bit less than Ste.

Here we are PRE FLOP

(http://lh4.ggpht.com/_M7mySuUsa6c/S7icKk3pFSI/AAAAAAAAJN0/Qn04Ium5vC4/s576/IMG_0883.JPG)

(http://lh3.ggpht.com/_M7mySuUsa6c/S7icLL_GsqI/AAAAAAAAJN4/WaTYufZoMLY/s576/IMG_0884.JPG)

We've lost Ste King in 45th. He pushed on a flop with plenty of outs in straight and flush cards to hit.  His opponents AK stood to knock him out.


Title: Re: Irish Open Days One to Three: At a Glance
Post by: Chili on April 04, 2010, 05:09:41 PM
On this flop :   

Pter Krikkay bet out 20k, called by Snteri Valikoski.

Turn:    check by Pter, 21k from Snteri.  Pter moves all in for 77,500 more.

After a short dwell and asking Pter "do you have it?" He made the call with    and it was good so far as Pter had   . 

The river bricked and Pter Krikkay is out and Snteri stacks yet more chips.

---------------------------------------------

Very next hand, Snteri Valikoski adds another 90k to his stack:

After having AK v Liam Floods QQ's.  A King on the turn seals the deal for Liam who has had a horrific day 3 to exit in 42nd.

Tyler Bonkowski update

Table 7 has seen a lot of 3/ 4/ 5 betting mainly coming from Peter Murphy and Tyler Bonkowski. The two clashed yet again.

Alan Trueick raising the button to 16k, Murphy in his deliberate (slow, metronomic, ever so slightly dull to watch) style made it 38,000 in the small blind .

This sent Bonkowski in the big blind into the tank.

A few minutes passed before Bonkowski four-bet to 92,000.

Trueick on the button grimaced and folded with Murphy following suit.

Bonkowski broke his cool stare for just a moment to have a cheeky smile as he raked in a nicely sized pot.


Title: Re: Irish Open Days One to Three: At a Glance
Post by: Chili on April 04, 2010, 06:54:34 PM
Big Big hand.

Zsombor Gall had AK v Martin Hanitz AA.  The aces held to give Hanitz a 600k stack.

Gall was left with about 25k but is out a few hands later.

Canadian Noseworthy has been getting abused since the table have worked out that he qualifed online for like $7.  Plus the fact that he passed with a short stack to a shove from fellow Canadian Candy Tyler Bonkowski holding AQ.

Actionnnn.  Sadly for Marty Wilson he runs  Qh Qs into Sweeneys  Ad Ac.

In a 600k pot there are no cards that save Marty so:

Marty Wilson exits in 17th place winning €18,300

Disaster for Nik Persaud.  He 3bet Snteri Valikoski's raise from the sb to 60k with Kings.  Snteri called.

 Ac Js 6h

I missed the betting sadly but the turn was  Jd and river was  Qd.

The money went in on the river and Valikoski tabled  Qc Jc for the full house.

Nik Persaud is out of the Irish Open this year in 15th for €18,300.

Nik had about 500k behind at the start of the hand.

Yann Dion who is Celine Dion's brother (seriously) pushes A-K off on the button and chip leader Sneteri Vlikowski insta calls with A5 ss in the small blind to make a 600,000 pot

Q-3-A-4-8 and Yann's Heart must go on, no worries over it being River Deep, Mountain high etc etc

With 14 left, play is naturally slow and cagey.  Nearly all pre-flop action and folds to 3 bets.

Still 6 players left until we can wrap up for the night so estimates are for for another 2 hours at least here!

Rob Sherwood wins the Sole Survivor €100,000 in cash/tourney entries


Yay Rob S!!


Title: Re: Irish Open Days One to Three: At a Glance
Post by: Chili on April 05, 2010, 02:17:46 AM
Indeed Rob wins the €100k Sole Survivor because.............

On the other table Declan Connolly raised to 49k, Barry Donovan in the sb made it 120k and Declan went all in to be called by Barry.

Barry Donovan -  Aspades Kc  and covered by Dec
Declan Connolly -  Kh Ks

 9h 3c 3h Td 2h

To send Barry Donovan out in 12th and VERY NEARLY another 100k.

Well done Rob Sherwood.
