In today. Is pay structure as before or is it make day 2 make the money? Think this was asked by stato in another thread but never got confirmed. Gl any blondes playing hope u finish close 2nd to me

Day Ones this month are 15 levels not 16. iirc last month it played 16 levels? (if I am wrong ignore the folowing..)

DTD are aware that last month's situation was undesirable, so with a level shorter working for them as well would imagine this time (assuming 500 runners) the bubble will be early Sunday.

In for today.........

See you all there today. Good luck

Hoping we are gonna be playing the bubble Sunday so that I can go back with my 150k stack and pure bubble by playing like a complete w@nker

ok play gets underway shortly

systems are recovering from being down all day, so I am a bit short of info, such as a seat draw

looks like we have 60 in at the start

Late reg is open until 10.15pm

One of these men does not know how to spell "crux"

One of these men could not finish his pre-tournament Toby Carvery

I was stunned to learn that the disappointing eater was stato1 and devastated to learn that the man with the limited spelling capability was stato01 too

There won't be any systems tonight, so its back to old style updating, where I remind myself how much easier it is to do this when the seat draw is updated every exit!

80 in so far now half way through level 1, no exits

cambridgealex raises from early position to 500 at 100-200 and gets no fewer than five callers in and out of position around the button

winnaaaaaaaaaaaaa

The other one is Mozam

As we head to 110 runners in today,and rising

first out today was Martyn Gibbons

He was knocked out by Jack Allen, who I beleive was staked by a blonde member until this week, when the arrangement was rather short-sightedly terminated

Allen c-bet K-3-2 with Q-J

Allen bet the 10 turn

Allen hit gin on the Ace river, and knocked out K-10 for turned top two

Allen 60,000+ and chip leader

I'm there tomorrow and can't wait feeling good  good luck too everyone playing tonight

After a raise, Steven Chennells and Andrew Hulme call

10-10-3 flop

Chennells bets, Hulme raises, Chennell calls

On the turn Chennells checks

Hulme 5,000

Chennells "Will you show if I fold?"

and makes it 11,000

Hulme all in

Call

cambridgealex and Jack Allen are both chip leader with over 65,000

Andy "I don't believe in live reads" Hulme. So gross.

She'll be here on Sunday

So she may not be, I think I'm gonna be The Walking Man, 'cos I Started Out With Something and I Ain't Got Much Of It Left


Lucy absolutely owns me heads up btw, every time.

Never seen anyone hit as many flops and draws ever as Greek Jack. The man is a machine.

Kuljinder Sidhu knocks out Mo Fassil

Fassil raises 6-4cc, calls a three bet and c-raises all in on 10-10-6, called by K-K

Jack of clubs on the turn gives Fassil four to the flush, but he's half way out door by this stage, and the river is an off-suit Queen to confirm his mid-community card despondency

---

Meanwhile Jack Allen raises pre and Jonathan Lithmore calls in the big blind

Lithmore leads 1,100 on 5-2-K rainbow

Allen calls

K turn

Lithmore check

Allen 2,700

Lithmore c-raise to 11,000

Allen gives a trademark dwell-fold wqith no mless than three checks of his cards mid dwell. Impressive technique

Did you not get the invite to the judging panel. Disgraceful!

A plethora of exits spotted in one orbit of the 12 tables

Leonard Gibson called Adam Daniel's short-stacked raise and then all in on a flop of 5-Q-3 with K-Q

Daniel flipped Aces

7 on the turn

K on the river to send Daniel to the cash games

"good game mate. Unlucky mate, Mate" says the broad Scouser Gibson to the scowling Daniel

This went down well

-----

Michelle Bennett Knocked out a short-stacked Guy Barron. Barron all in with A-K v K-Q on a K high flop. Michelle rivered the Queen

---

Peter Wigglesworth 3 bet Q-Q and found a 14,000 stack 4 bet shoving A-10 suited immediately to his left. Call, Queens hold and Wigglesworth wins the pot

---

In a rather strange one, blind on blind

Kh 9h and Jeremy Brown holding Qs 4s see a 6h 6s 5h flop

The flush draw leads and calls off the Brown shove (short-ish)

7h on the turn knocks Brown out

Pretty sick hand actually ive raised pre bet bet checked, he overbets river 10k into about 8k with QTcc on Ad 9d 9c 5c 8c and I check shove for 30k effective with Ac in my hand, [ ] got it through. [ ] he tanked :D

Nicholls check calls flop and turn and checks river on

Linton "that's why I bet so big"

Jack Allen raises to 1,000

Allen check calls  Jc Jd 5h for 1,800

I would also have accepted a joke that implied it was the fair lady who was prevented from getting close to Tighty.

So after 6 levels

84 of 119 remain

I don't have exit data or seat draw (could be a very long weekend), but happy to answer any requests

Millan all in
Vinodh tanks

Millan says "Fold, Barry Neville is behind me"

Barry doesn't scare me, anyway. Though he would probably finish a Toby Carvery. I couldn't earlier

Undeterred by Barry's menacing presence, Vindoh calls

Millan 10-10
Vinodh A-Kss

Nice tank sir

Board runs out 9 high and Millan thinks he has doubled but doesn't realise he has been backdoor flushed and is out

He isn't celebrating now

average 61,000

Chip leaders

cambridge alex
Kuljinder Sidhu
Nick Porter

all comfortably over double average

Take a bow re: a round with Stato Tighty :)

Yeah too good.

How's Lee the fish gettin plz Tighty

Yup

Won't need to play a hand til Sunday, so all looking good

(60,000ish, about average)

Cheers

See ya tomoz  ;D

In the biggest pot I have seen today

Kuljinder Sidhu limps in the cut off and David Shaw completes in the small blind

the flop comes, three way...

2-5-8 two clubs

checked to Sidhu who shoves into this limped pot, a massive overbet

Shaw has 2-5

and calls

Both are big stacks, and this is a 200,000+ pot at 600-1200

Sidhu has K9cc

Turn and river brick for Sidhu, no clubs, no backdoor two pairs

He is out shortly after and David Shaw assumes the chip lead

Meanwhile on a table that has just broken

Michelle Bennett is up to 100,000. A recovery after losing a biggie to Greek Jack 6-6 all in on a flop containing a six, against A-A of Jack. Turn and River both Aces to double Jack

Then, next level...Amandeep Atwal limps UTG

Greek Jack raises in the big blind

Atwal re-raises

Jack calls

K-J-8 flop, rainbow

Jack check raises Atwal, Atwal shoves

Jack calls with 6-6, a strange one with an underpair to the board

and shortly after he himself is out.

Just above 80k mate

  GL Lee & Shell. GL Deano 2moro ;0)

Just lost 100k pot with kk vs 94 off !!
I see why Barry Neville was pissed off now !

the player Lee refers to is Paul Barry

A difference of opinion earlier over a big hand between Messrs Neville and Barry was partially resolved off-premises.

Five limpers at 600-1200

Callum Morgan in the big blind makes it 6,600 and gets three callers

Kc 4c 3s

Morgan leads for 11,700

UTG Aymen Asif, the original limper, shoves for 31,800

The button passes

Ricky Cross passes (a King)

Morgan

"I think I have to call"

"In horrible shape against A-K though"

"I call"

and flops Ac Qh

Asif 6h 6d

Cross "You are kidding me, I was miles ahead, ******* ***** you have got to be ******** with me"

turn Ad

Cross goes *****. Sorry, Cross goes Quiet

river 7d

Morgan knocks out Asif and is up towards 100,000

Paul Hardy limps. Not as a result of what was partially resolved earlier

The cut off raises

Michelle Bennett re-raises on the button

Hardy and the cut off call

9d 4c 6d flop

Hardy leads 4,200, both call

4s turn

Checked to Bennett who makes it 22,000

Hardy check raises all in 85,000

cut off folds

Bennett thinks and thinks and folds ** (shown to me, will fill it in when the table breaks.participants knocked out)

Hardy goes to 130,000

how may did Callum have when he called this any idea ?

Amandeep Atwal raises

Vinodh Jayaraman calls on the button

Nick Porter calls in the big blind

8-6-9 flop

check

Atwal bets

Vinodh nall in

Porter all in

atwal, holding 8-8..all in

3 way main pot is 120,000 wirth Vinodh at risk holding...Aces

60,000 side pot with Atwal just covering Porter, Porter holding 7-5

180,000 then, set v straight v overpair

turn Q

River 10

Porter scoops, Vindoh out and Atwal exclaiming "if Aces had played it properly I win the pot and knock him out"

Porter stays mute

Break after 11 levels

50 of 123 left going into 1000-2000 with 4 levels to play

Average 73,000


Chip counts

Nick Porter 180,000
Alex Goulder 160,000
Callum Morgan 110,000
Charles Akadiri 130,000
Jack Allen 30,000
Tom Ambler 35,000
Peter Wigglesworth 60,000
Michelle Bennett 100,000
JJandEllis Mulligan 135,000
Jin Tse Wu 80,000
Marcin Milde 35,000
Peejay 40,000

Alex Goulder goes over 300,000 last hand before the break

He raises UTG+1. two peelers, including Vargas in the small blind

Q-J-2 two hearts

Goulder 5,500

12,500 from the opponent

Goulder 30,000

Q-J-2-4, 4 is offsuit

Alex jams 90,000 into 70,000

A-5hh calls off, bricks the river and Goulder binks

Interesting spot for Callum, was getting the right odds against flushes, underpairs to the King and even non-paired Kings excluding KQ and AQ.... 20 in to get 85 back

This is what happens when you flop a straight versus a set versus Aces

Nick Porter's 180,000

(https://fbcdn-sphotos-c-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-frc1/374439_592285504128886_732972813_n.jpg)

estimate 80-90k before he bet 11 on the flop. Callum will know the figure better than I do

Thanks Tighty

interesting spot.

agreed, flushes are unlikely as callum has the Ac and the Kc is OTF. Think hes crushed most of the time though.

Goulder over 400,000

On a board of Q-6-8-10 he check calls the pre-flop raiser from the big blind

On the Q river they both check and Goulder's 10-7 beats A-K


A few hands later John Bousefield raises

Goulder 3 bets

Bousefield calls

Qc Jc Tc flop

Bousefield checks, Goulder 7,000

Bousefield passes

Alex half groans, half smiles and flips  Ac Kc

Three levels to play (groan, worst shift of any live DTD event for "staff" is the Friday 1a starting 5pm with its post 4am finish back in 8 hours later)

36 left on 4 tables, and probably bringing less than 20 back when we finish tonight

blinds now 1200-2400, average  102,500

On the last four tables then

1. Table has Peter Wigglesworth playing 140,000 next to Lee Mulligan with 130,000. They are both out of position to table chip leader Daz Loynes from Liverpool with over 250,000

2. Table is the shortest stacked, containing amongst their number Tom Ambler and Peejay both grinding shortstacks

3. Hugh "h" Black" and Nick Porter with 160,000 and 180,000 respectively are at the head of affairs here

4. Chip leader Alex Goulder is not only running well on the table but on table breaks he is red hot. Having had Ayres broken onto his table earlier he has now had his own table break and he is two to the left of the unpredictable Paul Hardy

Hardy has 180,000, Goulder over 300,000

The thing I find about watching Goulder is his feel for where he is in hands, in marginal situations. A lot of people find the Ayres/Hardy's of this world difficult to play against. Difficult to assign ranges to and quite often leave tournaments thinking they were "unlucky" at the hands of the really loosey gooseys

Goulder's feel seems to allow him to avoid these wrong marginal decisions, and its a huge advantage. Its a trait/strength that someone like Wadey Ashraf shares too.

Also on this table Callum Morgan with 140,000 and Michelle Bennett playing just under 100,000


Average is currently 105,000 at 1200-2400

Paul Hardy is a Gala Nottingham regular that Alex probably should know fairly well. Always played any 2, always will (well, thats until someone actually properly takes him up on his offers of sorting things outside, then he probably wont be playing anything at all)

So a flavour of the action at that table. These are consecutive hands....

Hand 1

Hardy 2,500 UTG

Goulder 7,000 UTG+2

"Its the third time you have done this" says Hardy "You like me, don't you?"

Call

2s 3s Tc

check

Goulder 7,500

Fold


Hand 2

Goulder 5,000 on Hardy's big blind

Michelle Bennett 12,000

Goulder folds


Hand 3

Goulder 5,000

Hardy calls in the small blind

They check down 7-8-J-9

Hardy 16,000 on the 5 river

Goulder "I will let you have this one. Well played"

Hardy shows him 6-5


Hand 4

Seat 3 all in 47,000

Hardy on the button

"I feel lucky, call"

Goulder in the big blind. Pause. Trance like face, a picture of concentration and calculation. Pause

"ALL IN"

Hardy

"Now why would you do that?"

He leans back, like a Derbyshire Compo in Last of the Summer Wine savouring a meat pie in his local pub, twiddling his fingers on his tummy

"Its against my nature this. I don't like to back down"

He folds, Ace-Jack of hearts face up

"Good fold" says Alex, stroking the Compo Tom-Cat two to his right

Alex K-K

Seat 3 A-K

2-5-2-5-Q

Alex takes another out, and goes well over 400,000

How come he didn't fold turn versus Ayres then :P

Its a good job he can play, I've just seen his breakfast video.

Andy looked devastated bless.

Reactions at the end of highlights a mandatory watch.

Your welcome mate  :P

Jin Ze Wu calls a raise from a Welsh player and they see a flop of A-8-6 two hearts

Cymru bets, Jin pushes and Cymru calls with Aces.

Jin has K-Qhh and binks the heart on the river to go to 180,000

Tom Ambler is out. Blinded down to 12x bb and shoved K-7 on the button, big blind had Queens

Conversely on the same table Peejay has just doubled to 30x bb, finding Kings against Ace-King and holding

With one level to go we have 28 left from 123 starters

the final level, blinds 2000-4000 average 127,000 after the final break

Chip counts in the last level

Thank you Tighty:

As per usual

Just for the unusual hand/arm combination

(http://theentertainmentnut.files.wordpress.com/2012/06/et4.jpg)

Great updates Tighty
Pretty happy with how the day panned out
We had 4 Blue blooders playing day 1b, 3 of whom made it thru to day 2....myself, Michelle Bennett and Callum Morgan, Jeremy Brown went out fairly early, however he won a seat in the Satellite for a 2nd bullet today.
A great event, credit to DTD, 15 levels is a long old grind, finishing at 4:30am ain't fun either!
