Today from 2pm, Day1b

30,000 chips, One hour clock, WSOP Blind structure

£150,000 Guaranteed


Late last night, Simon Trumper had this to say

"Unbelievable Value Alert

Day 1a of the £150,000 guaranteed, £500 buy in WSOP Warm Up with 30,000 chips, a 1 hour clock and the $10,000 WSOP Main Event structure got just 85 entries, to break even we need 248 entries tomorrow which equates to 215 uniques and 33 re entries or approx triple the uniques we had today, that means we currently have a £100,000 overlay !!!! Usually we get double the day 1a turnout, should this happen we will end up with a total of 255 giving us a shortfall of approx £35,000.

We also have the two 5 x £9000 WSOP packages guaranteed Sunday and Monday so if these drop in figures continue these could be the easiest Vegas packages ever won.

Tonights £100 Meg Sat in the club produced 11 £500 winners who have the option to play Day 1b of the Warm Up or one of the Mega Sats, the weekend ones will obviously just be for the WSOP package sats, we need 100 entries in each to break even, i predict a minimum 30 players shortfall in both.

On Monday i will be playing the Mega Sat, should i win a package i will play the $10,000 Main Event and the 50 players with the most visits to the club this year will each have 1% of me.

Hope some of you will make the effort to support the club this weekend.

Cheers

ACES "

Sharplea and Joobie will be updating for the rest of the weekend, please join them later if you can't get to the club to take advantage of likely great value.

If the overlay and value wasn't a good enough reason to come down...here's another:

(https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-vFEqrqCuWBo/T8oRSaT96QI/AAAAAAAAAB8/n-zBJwmAF0U/s512/DSC00316.JPG?gl=GB)

The DTD Caribbean Party Girls have arrived and anyone who wants a picture taken with them - can have one!

Sigh :(

They still got that restraining order? :)

Thanks you fran :) will we be seeing you later?

Yea :( was lifted briefly last month

Juse seen Colin Young scoop a nice 8k pot after betting a flush draw on Ahrt Kh 3d and hitting running 7s 7c, then getting paid off on the river by 2 opponents - Colin's 9h 7h easily good.

Rastafish is in the house - I can hear him from the bar!

114 entrants so far - still way off the 248 needed to hit the guarantee, get down here with £500, soooooooo much value!

No chance of me ever getting 3 available days can't even get 2 lol

Quick glance around the cardroom and I've spotted the Flying Dutchman, otherwise known as Marcel Luske.

I'm guessing there will be a big cash game later on...

I also feel sorry for Alan 'Lucky' McBride, his opening seat draw has thrown up a corker!

34   1   Gary Morgan

34   3   Sean Robertson
34   4   Mark Mccluskey

INCRED table. Early candidate for a round with Sharplea imo.

Adam too busy drooling to mention the reason the girls are here...

Adam might have done a round with Table 34..

Incred life for McCluskey

Is it just me / the play today is too slow???

turn that frown upside down Glen!!

(https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-TMPhDUECvxY/T8offi5aJBI/AAAAAAAAACQ/6PSbA_Ij5Og/s640/DSC00318.JPG?gl=GB)

The first player out is Paul Cohen.

He did a 30k stack in 2 hands, firstly folding A-Q (his word) on a A-6-8-6 board when David Gentry set him in. Gentry showed an Ace.

Next hand he got it all in with a massive OESD + FD on the turn, but missed.

127 in, 126 left.

Still over 100 short for the overlay and that means...

VALUE!

A tall stranger in a grey suit entered the room, his face seemed strangely familiar, needing to know more Joobie enquired.... "is that tea or coffee?"

(https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-HtHMziIeaO0/T8oftiWzMgI/AAAAAAAAADY/OIYHczgD4tg/s512/DSC00327.JPG?gl=GB)

Play today is very slow.

so are the updaters ;)

Lol.. just waiting to read some incred hands involving Rasta!!!! HOLD FISH HOLD!!!!!!

A Round with sharplea - Table 34

34   1   Gary Morgan - 28k
34   2   Peter Haslam - 30k
34   3   Sean Robertson - 25k
34   4   Mark Mccluskey - 31k
34   5   Alan Mcbride - 28k
34   6   Carl Fitzpatrick - 33k
34   7   Albert Sapiano - 27k
34   8   Ian Gascoigne - 34k
34   9   Colburn Tomlin - 34k

Hand 1 - Button Seat 1

McCluskey min-raises to 200 UTG. All bar McBride, Gascoigne and Morgan call!

Flop: Aspades 6d Jd

Checked to McCluskey who bets 450. Sapiano and Haslam the only callers.

Turn: 2c

Haslam check-raises McCluskey's 850 to 2175. McCluskey calls as Sapiano folds to the original 850.

River: 6c

Haslam bets 4625 and McCluskey quickly folds. Amazingly enough, Rastafish hasn't said a word yet!


Hand 2

McBride folds UTG. Fitzpatrick raises to 250 UTG+1. Everyone else calls, obviously. It's only a £500 comp after all! Oh, hold on, Gascoigne folded...

Flop: Qs Ahrt Th

All check!!

Turn: 5s

Checked round to Morgan who bets 450. Naturally, everyone calls. Except McCluskey!

River: 7h

Rasta finally speaks, cheekily saying "Can I nick it from here?" Nope Rasta, you can't cos Albert has bet 2300. Robertson calls only to see that Sapiano has rivered a set - 7c 7s

brilliant! hope someone busts quick so when i late reg, i'll be on that table!

love how albert calls on the turn with 77 on AQT5 lol, such a hero.

Hand 3

Blinds are now 100/200.

Albert limps. (I'll be CTRL+V this...)

Ian makes it 750. McCluskey and Albert call.

Flop: 4c 7c Ad

Albert bets 750. Gascoigne flicks the call in. McCluskey meekly check-folds.

Turn: Qh

Albert checks, Ian nonchalantly bets two greens and a black (2100). Albert folds faster than an Origami expert.


Hand 4

Albert limps (good old CTRL+V)

Morgan this time punishes the limper - 775 to go. Robertson calls and naturally Albert calls.

Flop: 6c 3c 8c

Morgan bets 1600, Robertson calls, Albert folds.

Turn: Qd

Morgan fires again - 3600. Robertson just calls!

River: 3h

Morgan empties the clip - 5k this time. Again, Robertson calls!

Morgan has Jh Jd but it's somehow not enough - Robertson surprisingly had Kc Ks!

Hand 5

It's Albert's big blind...so naturally Rasta, Robertson, McBride and Fitzpatrick all limp. Albert checks.

Flop: Aspades 7s 6d

Checked round to Robertson who bets 325 into a 1k pot...and everyone folds.


Hand 6

Folded to BTN Fitzpatrick, who limps. Albert makes up and Ian checks.

Flop: Tc Qh 4s

Albert donk-leads 500. It's easily enough, ldo.


Hand 7

Robertson limps. Yes, limps.

McCluskey makes it 525. Rasta pipes up with "oi, on my BB?!" and folds. McBride called and then Robertson obv calls.

Flop: Js 4d 7d

McCluskey bets 950 when checked to. It's enough, natch.

Great updates Sharplea!!!!!

Hand 8

Albert can't limp this time - he's not here...

Robertson raises to 450. Morgan calls.

They check down a 9s 2c Ts 7c board and Robertson bets 700 on the Js river. Morgan makes a crying call and is shown 7s 6s for his troubles!

Rasta wasn't happy about Robertson raising with that on his SB! ;)


Hand 9

Folded to Rasta on the button who...folds?!

OK, so SB Morgan raises to 500 and BB Haslam calls.

Flop: 7c Jd 6h

Morgan check-calls 500 from Haslam. They then check the 9c turn and 2s river. Haslam's Tc 7s is good!

As I type this, Ali Mallu is at the cash desk re-entering. Andrew Symeou appears to have been the beneficiary...

Jamie Sykes just got a gift!

He bet 2k when checked to on a Th Td 8h board, only to see Robert Charlton (no, not that one) check-raise all in for 17,725.

Sykes wasn't happy, asking him "Did you bring enough money to rebuy? I did!" before calling with Jh Jd.

Obviously, Jamie's Nit Tendencies must precede him - Charlton only had 9h 9d!

Turn and river were the biggest of all bricks 2s and 4s respectively...Sykes now over 50k and Charlton hopefully heading for the cash desk!

It's break time - so I'm off chipcount hunting. Joobs to bring you the pertinent details...

Jamie Sykes thought he was going for thin value when he bet the river of a 2c 3d Qd 6d Ts board with 7d 7h. Unfortunately, it was a bit too thin, as Hamid Toghyan had Ahrt Qh and made the call.

A short-stacked Robert Baguley must have thought it was his lucky day when he looked down at Aces in the BB. His heart must have then sank as it was folded round to Richard Seatum in the SB. Luckily for Baguley, it was cooler time, as the 2 contrived to get it all in pre, with Seatum unluckily holding a nice pair of Cowboys. No outdraw on the 3c Qh 8d 6s 7s board and Baguley is back to starting stack.

Blessed

Update on Tom Langley please team, tyty

Using my "amazing" paint skills i've made the mystery tea drinker a little more recognisable...
(http://i1189.photobucket.com/albums/z435/joobie538/marcel.png)

marcel luske here for a cash game later??

Mark "Golden" McCluskey just got it all in with Kings against Sean Robertson's Aces.

I've called him golden because the flop came Q-K-Q. Easy game, especially when the Aces don't rebink.

Cue 5 minutes of Rastafish shouting "I told you the King was coming!"

Maria fans look away now, your hero is down to 20k after having to fold on the turn of a 8s 4c 2s 5c board, when CT Law raised her bet of 4200 to 19200.

Peejay fans unfortunately have to go and puke - he got it all in pre with Js Jh against Alex Clark's Ahrt Ks and Clark had walked away by the river of the Tc Ts Qd 5c Kh board, he had to be called back!

29k and change.

No such thing...

Im here mate, dw. Flipping like the entire stable

Chip count and pic of a mate of mine who travels now and again from bristol
Paul Collins
Please.
Gl all blondes especially Colin young

17k and looking rather mightily pissed off.

rotflmfao ;bumwiggle;

Alli Mallu is out.

Again.

GG £1000.

Update on Prasanna please Sharplea!!

Boom! Flip won! :)

Think the great speech by Russell Crowe in Gladiator... "My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius, commander of the Armies of the North...."

As I try to creep past table 34 unnoticed I realise I have failed as I am met with "My name is Rastafish, I will win, I will teach you how to win! see..."

the flop has already been dealt  Aspades 8c  4d

his poor opponent already looks defeated and folds showing  Qs.

Rastafish assures me that it was pocket Q's and turns over  Ahrt  8s

Cue the remainder of the gladiator esq speech...

I make my excuses and exit stage left not before taking this pic

Paul has about 33k.

We're halfway through Level 4, blinds are currently 150/300-25.

Average chips are 32,364 with 151 left of the 163 entries.

Got some posh kid on my left trying to teach me about 4betting pre antes. What a joker.

Said posh kid just knocked out Jamie Burland with K-K vs 9-9 all in preflop.

The posh kid is that golden there wasn't even a sweat.

Any news on Mr James Williams please?

Matt Simpson just doubled up Sean Robertson when Robertson won the flip with A-K vs Simpson's J-J.

Rastafish was happy to have folded Q-J.

Robert Woodcock was short but doubled through when he shoved Jc 9c on the turn of a 5h 4h 8c 6s board. His opponent, Richard Whiteley, called with 6c 5c but the river was the 7h, giving Woodcock the higher straight.

seems to have around 32k... that's if this is the side profile of the young man you are talking about?

(https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-BCoRXp5mc_k/T8pI88jjGTI/AAAAAAAAAHU/xAMLuBHNpgY/s512/DSC00335.JPG)

I've just walked past the golden Posh One...who isn't so golden, as I arch an eyebrow at his 12k stack.

His response: "It was QUEEN and FIVE, it had to go in".

I'm still shaking my head now. Level 5 thinking there.

Any chance of an update in Sean Quinn table 36 and James Williams (unsure) if possible! Seans birthday today lets hope he gets some run good!

Chinese Frankie has been momentarily silenced when he lost a chunk to Sean Randall on a Qh Ts Ks Kd 8c board, Randall's value bets of 3500 on both turn and river being paid by Frankie, who mucked quietly.

it's break time!!! play will resume in 20mins... i'm off to try the choc brownie and icecream :)

Williams - look up, 25k according to the pic.

Quinn - 34k after Jamie Sykes cold 4-bet with JACK and TWO only to see Quinn 5-bet with what I assume was a better hand.

George Bedi has just quadrupled up when he shoved his 5k in with Ad Aspades and got 3 callers!

They all checked down a Tc Qh 7h 5c 2s board and the Aces were good!

I think Bash Mahmood has just knocked out Carl Fitzpatrick - well that's what the shouts from Rasta were sounding like anyway...

Evening Sharps n Joobs, Updates on 48   7   Tom Kugelstadt  Please. TY.

Busto Neemo

Sean Quinn is unbeatable at the moment, would have 5 bet with the same hand!

Good evening sir!

The handsome young man in 48 7 has been moved to 35 1, and has taken about 55k in chips with him.

(https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-n6JlWmmA8J4/T8pZh2qL9zI/AAAAAAAAAHs/ILAoAwW_HUo/s512/DSC00337.JPG)

Simon has just announced that there is still an overlay of £25k!!!

anyone fancy registering after your night on the town, pretty sure late reg is open longer than the clubs ;)

Maria had 12k, not 6k earlier #icantcountchipstoday

She now has a few more when she raised to 1700 pre and got 2 callers including Pete Wigglesworth. The flop came 7d 6d 4c and 6k from Maria was easily enough to get rid of the other two!

Dahe Liu just got a gift when Larry Mayes called his tournament life off with 5c 4s on a 7d 6c 6s Aspades board. Liu had 7s 7h having flopped the mutts nuts.

Gary Morgan is also out after he 4-bet shoved AK in the BB only to find Conor Beresford on the button with dem bullets.

Rasta just won a pot when he bet 1200 on the turn of a 2s Ks 8h 9s board, Renee Xie and Narendra Ruparel both calling. All 3 checked the 8d river and Rasta's Kc Ts was enough to take the 6k pot.

Ruparel then bled a few more chips when he paid off Alan McBride's 3k value bet with AT on a A-x-x-T-x board, Ruparel mucking.

David "david3103" Amos had to re-enter when he shoved his first stack with Ks Js on a 2 spade flop...unfortunately his opponent had Aspades 2s to kill all his outs. Since re-entering, he got a gift when Duncan Taylor raised to 1200 pre and Amos 3-bet to 4k. Taylor called and the two checked a Qd 7h Aspades flop, then again checked a Ks turn. Taylor bet 3k on the Ts river with Qh Th, but Amos had been lucky enough to see all 3 streets with Js Jd and had rivered the straight. He called and won the pot.

Blinds up, 250-500/50.

George Bedi is over starting stack.

He raised to 2400 with dem Kings after 2 limpers, who both called. He then shoved a 5-A-J flop and Nathan Lee called with K-Q, which missed on the 4 turn and 7 river.

George now on 40k - nice considering he had just under 5k an hour ago!

Robert boon update please ?
Is Tom hall , the Tom hall or the young Turk Tom hall from pboro?

Villain jammed into me and I called :)

What does everybody think the rule is here:

Guy opens to 1100 at 250/500, I throw in 2 1k chips silently in the next seat. Is it a call or a raise?

Raise surely.  The raise is legal, it is two chips, what else could it be?

Pretty sure it's deemed a call

Who was his opponent?

It's certainly a call.

I'm new by the way. Sitting in 31 5 with 190k chips.

Hope to get to know you all soon.

I heard this hand from David himself - he didn't say who his opponent was.

thin

RASTAFISH has just doubled up.

I got to the table as I spotted the man standing up with all of his betting discs in the middle. He'd shoved 7.5k over the top of a 2500 bet from Narendra Ruparel on a 5s Kh 8h 9s board. Ruparel called and was shown 7c 6d, the current nuts. It turned out Ruparel was actually drawing dead, as he had a surprising (well, to me) Kc 4d. The Js finished the board off but nobody cared by then!

I thought I felt the ground shake.

Then I glanced behind me as Joobs was frantically waving. It was Mitch.

Robert Boon has around 90k sadly no pic as he was using the little boy's room when I had the camera to hand.

as for Tom Hall, he's a not so happy looking fella on about 16k

(https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-oiEHiY9tOsw/T8plS7dXLZI/AAAAAAAAAH4/_ry-C7_Y9u0/s512/DSC00338.JPG)

Is it too much trouble for chip counts on his table? I understand if you're too busy atm tho.

Hi Andy
Welcome to blonde.
Pssssssssst - give me some chips please, 3 to your right :)

Sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhkes

Chipcount + pic of Ben jones if possible plz.. 27 7 I think

Nathan Lee, called my 3bet pre, I bet flop, he raised, I shoved...

2nd stack up to average now.

Thanks it's the Tom hall too not young Turk Tom

100% should be a raise surely. He increased the bet by 600 and you increased that bet by 900 using more than one chip. Legitimate raise IMO

Robert Boon has around 90k sadly no pic as he was using the little boy's room


You've seen it too ?

Mark Elliot 37/3 - Picture of him please, so I know what hoody he is wearing.
Craig Stewart 27/3 - Update on him too.

Thanks.

By the book its a raise but it usually goes as a call 'cos nobody knows you're allowed to raise to <2.2k

David's at a new table now as he re-entered. We have a break in 10 mins so I'll do that table then.

George has just bust Paul Leckey with Ahrt Th all in pre against Paul's Kh Jc.

Flop was a parsley-tastic 3c 7c 9c giving a sweat, but the 8h turn and Js river gave Bedi the straight and the pot.

Nah, it's a call unless spoken.
Looks like you need 900 change, just announce it peeps.

our new boy Andy after a run in with Maria.

nice double up for her to about 65k when her Ahrt Kd  squashed Andy's 7h 7c with a 4h Ad 9s Kc Kh board.

Common the sheffield! Great hoodies!

I'm on 160k after doubling Maria up. Was nearer 200 before

thanks

Hey, can I have an update on 26   4   Kyle Outhwaite please?

We're struggling with our internet connection at the moment! Please bare with us we expect we'll be back online once the voice has finished ;)

Ben Jones Manchester player? How you know him Tom?

if by removing either of the two chips the remaining chip is less than a call the action is taken as a call

Please do not post "The Voice" spoilers in this thread.

Joobs hasn't seen it yet!

I'm assuming it's finished as we appear to have some more internet access...

another thread started which has serveral discussion pieces on this.... in case you didnt know

He's not looking too cool he's got 36k

(https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-Q29gQe3brUE/T8p21xDRTEI/AAAAAAAAAJU/CzMp-amqzmc/s512/DSC00347.JPG)

Alan McBride has doubled up.

He shoved his 7,250 stack with 5c 5s over 3 limpers on Rastafish's BB. Rastafish folded with a whimper but Mark McCluskey called with Ac 9s after everyone else had folded. McBride won the flip on the 6d 4h Jh Jc Kc board.

Guess which Blonde this chipstack belongs to...

(https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-MMgWggG2hLc/T8p22kqIfRI/AAAAAAAAAJc/xtPTLkNHLrQ/s512/DSC00348.JPG)

ah thanks didnt see it. new to forum

That's George's lot.  Orange stripe on cuff of sleeve gave it away.   ;)

I didn't announce because I was trying to call, accidentally dropped the extra chip in cos I'm a live feeeeesh.

no problem :)

So they took it as a raise?

Congratulations!!!!

you win a "wahooo" from me

Stephen Rawle is headed out after he got short and shoved A-K, losing the flip against Barry Randall's 4-4 on a 9-8-5-4-7 board (3 diamonds by turn, Rawle had Kd)

They did.

Could I get a chip count for Rasta-Fish please... Thanks..

QUICK!!! HURRY UP!!!

Only 4hrs of late reg left anyone currently lliving in the north of France you may just have time to jump on a plane/train and make it!!

Narendra Ruparel is either going to win this or bust in the next 2 levels.

He just won a 50k pot when calling down Rastafish and Pete Haslam with Q-4os on a 3h Qd Td 7d 3c board. Haslam mucked and Rasta had J-10. The table laughed as apparently Ruparel likes hands with a 4 in them - a few times now I've seen him show down Q-4 and K-4!

15k and quiet...

Ok thanks, please post if anything arises.

The Voice has just announced their winner.  Plug yer ears, close your eyes and stay away from Facebook for the next hour or so Joobs.

aye aye captain!!

Mark McCluskey has re-entered and has been seated in 36/1.

That would be to the direct left of Alex Goulder and BB to Jamie Sykes' cutoff.

Could be interesting...

Golden Boy Goulder has just doubled up.

He raised with Tens on the button and Suzanne Gilbert called in the SB.

They checked the K-Q-Q flop and Golden Boy bet 2k on the gin T turn. Suzanne called and then led 4.5k on the river. Goulder shipped and she was priced in to call.

Gilbert has since busted at the hands of Guy Webster.

Thank you Sir.. Great updates...

15 min break for a chip race.

Bad rulings should = free food imo.

how is a correct ruling a bad one?

it wasent a correct ruleing it should have been taken as a call

You can announce call btw,

the td gave a incorrect ruling according to dtd riules? u sure . most places if u put in more than 50% than a call its araise but i dont know there ruling. tbf they dont get many wrong

thats it pokerfan announcing call would of saved his grief

The ruling must be right. The min raise here is to 1700 so how can 2 chips totalling 2000 not be a raise??

And we're back. 400-800/100 are the forced betting amounts.

+1 unless the player sticks in a single chip which can be way in excess of 50% in which case it's a call.

YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c_e2D2qsaso

very apt that this comes on the radio as we start again :D

I did query this with Ryan, the TD involved.

He did state the TDA rules above but also confirmed that 2 different coloured chips or 2k with more than 2 chips would have been a raise. The reason given for the 2k in 2 green chips being a call was the same as above - take one out and it's less than a call.

btw great updates as usual. how is the prizepool looking

Taken from the Official TDA Rules website...

http://www.pokertda.com/custom_posts/view-official-tda-rules/

39:   Multiple Chip Betting
When facing a bet, unless a raise is first declared, multiple same-denomination chips is a call if removing one chip leaves less than the call amount. Example of a call: preflop, blinds are 200-400: A raises to 1200 total (an 800 raise), B puts out two 1000 chips without declaring raise. This is just a call because removing one 1000 chip leaves less than the amount needed to call the 1200 bet. Placing mixed denomination chips in the pot is governed by the 50% standard in Rule 37.


Dealer ruled it as a raise, TD confirmed it should be a call.

If you live in Kent or Newcastle or Somerset you might want to get a shuffle on!!!

We have just over 3 hours of Late Reg left!!

And yes there is still an overlay!!!

ok cheers alex must admit not heard of the ,two chips the same, bit before.
free food it is then  :D ;)

Someone has OUT-FISHED the FISH!

Ruparel has been limping a LOT of hands - pretty much playing 95/0 in a £500 comp. Anyway, he limps UTG again and Rasta isolates to 3k. Renee Xie and Sean Robertson then call, and naturally Ruparel calls.

The flop is a drawtastic Jd Td 8d and Rasta, first to act, shoves 14.4k. Xie and Robertson fold. Ruparel....calls! On their backs we go....

Rasta: 9h 9c

Ruparel: 7h 6d!

Needless to say, the board naturally ran out 3c then the Ad - sending the fish to the rail after being out-fished!

joobie was that random counties or u been peeping ?  :)

You learn something everyday - egg on face time

Ruparel is awesome to watch, some of the hands people are getting into with him are unbelievable. Would make for a great final table if he can survive that long!

For example, the hand before the Rasta bust, he's limped and Bash Mahmood has isolated. Rasta calls behind knowing Ruparel is going to call and the three see a 8h 2s Th flop. Amazingly enough, the rest of the hand plays out as follows...

Ruparel - lead for 2200.
Bash - Raise to 8000
Rasta - fold
Ruparel - flat

Bash: Tc 3c

I rest my case. Joobs had to come and literally pick my jaw up off the ground.

google maps is your friend ;)

no way i can get there in 3 hours in moi tracktor

ooohh aaarrrr seems a good idea

Bash has ~ 175k now and is vying with Andy Symeou for the chip lead.

ACES

I took down a pretty decent pot preflop with a 5bet fold fold fold fold on my table, up to 190k now.

And miles behind Bash now after this gift...

Ruparel is OUT!

He raised to 2k and Bash 3-bet to 7k with Jh Jd. Ruparel then cold 4-bet with Ac 5d to 27k! Bash flats and they saw a 7d Qc 8h flop.

Ready for it?



Ruparel leads 30k, Bash makes it 80 and Ruparel calls it all off!!

No help on the turn or river and Bash has 300k.

Ruparel has re-entered and is now 3 to the right of Nick Hicks - who I honestly hadn't noticed until now...

really!! where the hell has he been hiding?

Barry Lane had a nice double up to around 100k thanks to our newbie blonde Andrew Symeou

The chips are all in preflop  Barry has Aspades Kc  Andy the original raiser is behind with Ac 4h 

nothing special on the board of  5d 8h 5c 2d Th

Andy now has 130k ish

Incred hand

Colin Young is out. He ran Queens into Jack Allen's Ace-Queen.

Jamie Sykes has just doubled up Neil Barron after they got it all in on the turn of a 9-7-6-Q board with Barron's AK against Sykes' KJ. The AK held on the 7 river.

Kelly Saxby doubled up when she binked the river of a A-6-8-6-Q board against Bharminder Maker's A-K, the two getting it all in preflop.

Rupinder Bedi continues on the rise, he's just KO'd Skullman (Gerald David)

Level up!

Good going Andy and welcome to Blonde...

Why does Bash remind me of the Merchant of Venice.. ..?

Ruparel has doubled up again. He got it all in with 5c 3s on the turn of a 2c 3c 2h 8d board, with Leon Campbell holding Ahrt Jc. No help for Leon on the 4h river and Ruparel has 60k. Leon has scraps.

If i've found the right guy he's on approx 40k

Ladies and Gentlemen, if you didn't already know, this is the Famous uncle from the Vic... He's Rich, and Loves to gamble and actually a nice guy... Plays the big game in India too which is huuugggeee...

Thats the fella! thanks for that michelle next door looks like shes struggling is that like 17k? :(

I am so glad to see him in a different hoody.

Good Luck Mark!

what a dude... i wish he was my uncle!

nice pot for George 2 L

I turn round just in time to see the turn being dealt

Board Ahrt 6d Qc 3c

George bets 2750

Nathan Lee in seat 3 shoves

George makes an easy call with Ad 3d

Nathan has Qs 6s

river is 3s

G2L is now on 180k

Apparently these two have been battling for a while

Bronto he's everyone's uncle... The 5/10 plays 10 handed when Uncles playing.. Defo deserves "Legend Status"...

Nick Hicks is out and re-entered.

He shoved 17k over the top of a Frank Flanagan 3k raise and the obligatory Ruparel call, only this time Flanagan shoved behind and Ruparel passed.

Nick had Kc Jh and was in better shape than he probably thought as Flanagan had Ahrt Qh.

The Jd in the window was nice but the Qs was underneath and no more help for Nick sent him heading to the cash desk.

Just under 2 hours of late reg left

and we still have a 13k overlay

anyone fancying a shot at it get here quick

Blinds are 500/1000 ante 100  so you'll still have 30 BB's  

fancy a gamble?

George Bedi has broken the 200k mark.

Exact number of betting discs of Michelle Bennett please.

17k, on my table

Cheers Alex, hadn't even seen that.

Break time - 15 minutes. Time for some pics of some heroes...

Robert Boon is over 100k after eliminating Anon when Anon shoved over 7 limpers from the BB. Boon had limped Ac Qc UTG and was miles ahead until the 6h 8c 9s flop.

Thankfully, the turn was the Qs and that was enough for Boon to take the pot.

Less than 1 hour left for late reg

we still have an overlay of about £10k

the cash desk are ready and waiting to take your £500 from you!! 

We've lost connection again! Normal service will be resumed shortly, we appologise for any inconvenience caused :)

Rob Baguley busted when his A-K did not win the race against the 7-7 of William Anderson.

Michelle Bennett is also out but I missed the hand...Alex?

glad they have got close hate to see massive overlays at dtd.....

when im not their to take advantage! (self "fish") i know

She shoved about ten bigs on the button with 44 and the sb found aq and won the flip

Sigh

sigh indeed! He turned the straight.

what time does play end? and will a chip count be provided when it ends?

Play finishes about 2:40am and a full chip count will be posted as soon as possible after that.

Confirmed.

Also confirmed is that Alex Goulder runs golden.

He just eliminated David Amos with 7-7 against Amos' T-T...the hard way, the board running out with 4 hearts and Goulder holding the 7h!

OK 5 min break for last buy ins....

Peter wigglesworth sill in?

Busted in 140th.

Sorry about that, felt a bit dirty, but we had a 3betting dynamic believe it or not and I felt it was too strong to fold.

Lucky - who has busted since but says he is playing the £500 Vegas Sat tomorrow which we will be keeping an eye on...

(https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-KdPtaPYVNL0/T8qdVmBvFSI/AAAAAAAAAK4/BvraGgegLtw/s640/DSC00354.JPG)

Done better then normal  then :D

So we finished up 26 players short which means there was a £13,000 overlay. 221 entries today; 175 entrants and 46 re-entries.

Adam Palethorpe just eliminated Mark Elliott with A-K vs Elliott's A-2 all in preflop. There were chop outs for mark after the 3-7-3 flop but no good on the T turn and 4 river.

PALETHORPE YAYAYAYAYAYAYA

edit : how many chippies ^?

bad times unlucky markus!

Liam Batey has made swift exit from the table and ultimately the tournament but not before sliding his chips across the felt to Alex Zeligman after his A Q was no good on a Q high board!

Liams hopes of winning were shattered when Alex turned over K's

Goog luck george2loose from all the leicester boys bring the money home lol

He's given a chunk to Dan Ward.

from facebook "Bedi Blow up" not good!

A lot. Not entirely sure how much as I was slightly distracted at the time, but we have 12 minutes left so I'll wait for the official counts.

Chipleader, and newbie blonde, AndySymeou with 475k (ish) after KO'ing Abhishek Khaitan with 3-3 on a K-3-2hh board. Khaitan had QJhh which improved on the 10c turn but no good with the 7x river!

(https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-TbU25ekjBVQ/T8q8D6zlfAI/AAAAAAAAAMU/wnxMaaOavSs/s640/DSC00364.JPG)

Bedi out, and it was sick.

Andy opened and Maurice Nicholson called before George shipped 25bb with Q-10. Andy then made it 100k with 9-9 and Maurice called all in.

The flop was Q high but the turn was a K and the river a brick...Maurice had K-6 to scoop!

THAT'S IT!!!

DAY 1B OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Chip counts will be posted when they are available

pretty balla stack

Hate Maurice's call there but I would've lost to the queen anyway. Finished up 439k.

 See you tomorrow folks

It happens - it was fun till then though. had  3s 5c thie first time we tangled, flop had a 3 and I think I was 'bluffing with the best hand'?
Others were stronger, sometimes.
Since Bedi's out I guess I better funk for you, not that you need it.

Joobs and I are off to sleep as we have been up since 7am yesterday morning!

The 2 fields will be combined for Day 2 tomorrow, which is a 1.30pm start.

Join us then as we play down to the final table (we think!)

Night!

i reckon this is a call by the book. only goes as a raise if you throw in chips of differing denominations, or more than the amount of chips of 1 given denomination than is the minimum to match the inital bet

True. Dan's a mug.

3s 5c ?!?! I should've raised preflop. Oh wait...

Win

should have found the 4bet ;-)

Bruno Mars is a member on blonde ? Sick

Andy reminds me as a mixture of Bruno Mars and Dario Mineri :-)

Bruno mars and Vanessa selbst imo

Ive heard them all before, except Vanessa selbst. But if you want to liken me to her I'm cool with that :)

Super 50? :D
