i will try to find stato, i was called away for 5 mins and missed it

pre-set order, the system isnt "gamed" at all.

here we have about 35m of the 50m in play on one table at 60-120k soon

so the other 7 (ho yin, bayley, garland, angell etc) are at averages of 2m and the play is much much cagier, some shoves, some raises but nothing too exciting.

the other table with much deeper stacks is seeing flops, multiway pots etc. it also happens that the two most aggro players in the comp, leo and edmund are button to big blind at one end of the table

More info on Bayley for you Tighty (sorry if posted earlier but couldn't see it)

Supernova Elite. Plays as BigStealer on Stars. Plays the $60+ hypers and Spin and Gos. Previously only played live once in a blue moon but chatted to him at the PCA and says he plans to play live a lot more this year. Usually a chatty presence at the tables, reminds me of Nick Wealthall in terms of table talk and general demeanour.

Pretty sure a flush beats a set?

Also, go leo!

Leo still the short-stack of the three but somehow the most aggro too. Playing 13-15m he can get away with a lot given these pay jumps, or so it seems to me, just can't be called light and can shove/bet wide

Well done to Edmund, a pro cash game player from London

£210,000 for the cash games. Nice

thats all from us. Thank you to DTD and Sky Poker for their hospitality and support.

Until next time, whenever that might be, from tikay and myself a weary goodnight.

Great effort Rich. Thanks again as these updates are really appreciated.

Nice work Tighty, much appreciated from all blondes and guests!

Good to see the updates back, kept an eye on them all week and imo it adds a lot to the event on a whole.

Hopefully something can be sorted to get them back regularly for the major DTD events. Good job!

Thanks Richard, TK & Tal - always enjoy the updates

This.

Nicely done as always Tighty.

Great job Tighty and Teeks, love these updates.

Well done Edmund! Chatted to him at a cash table with him recently, came across as a decent person. One for the good guys I reckon!

Thanks Tighty, top draw as always.

I forgot how much I enjoy the updates. They always make me wish I was playing.

interview with the winner

YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nNqe9UrMXZo

Definitely this.


Congrats to all involved, and the winnaaaaaars!

Great job guys, thanks for taking the time.

Great updates tighty. As mentioned by a few it was great to have them back for this. Maybe we should start a petition to get them reinstated.

I hope Carl does not mind, but I wanted to share this with you, it was a Post he made Next Door, where we had our own little Live Update, & where the social Community really were funking for Carl.


Thanks for the support and wishes people. Just read through the whole thread now and it's nice know people are sending the positives vibes. (Please send more when I'm AI with KK��). If you don't know, I qualified for £16 so my ROI on this is massive. The whole tourney,trip,experience was superb and I'll deffo be trying to satellite into the next one. As for being crestfallen, it was more a combination of little sleep, long days and mental overload finally being over. It was so intense at times that I even miscounted my stack(thought my 2 milly stacks were 1 milly). More of a relief and a quick chat with Simon Allen(who's appearance later on in matters to rail was a boost) over a brew in the reverted me back to my normal jovial self. As for the money, plans are afoot for new bathroom,stair and landing carpet, new heating install, garden work, garage roof,stuff for the kids and couple of new tattoos. Any left may end up being punted over counter at my local Yamaha dealers. Once again, thanks for the support, it means a lot. Hopefully it'll inspire someone else to make the most of their shot at a big pay day. Regards,Mohican.

MORRRRRRREEEEEE

I really hope something can be done in bringing the live updates back to Blondepoker. Im uncertain of the poltics behind why they stopped but I hope it can looked at again in making a return.

The live updates  were blondepoker forum originated from and it proves in the post tournament messages that they are really missed. Also in reading most of the later posts it actually encourages people to want to go out and play live poker and in effect support DTD.

Thanks again Rich for your efforts over the past few days and hopefully the updates will once again be a permanent feature and help bring Blondepoker back to its glory days

If there's one thing for sure it's that it's not due to lack of popularity that the updates haven't been around. Everyone loves them, everyone knows that everyone loves them. It's obviously out of our hands but I really hope there's a way to bring them back.

hi there's no politics its just that most operators run their own updates, party do for example with their own events (so do stars, gukpt etc etc) so with them being in the "nice to have" category rather than been easily provable as leading to business for the venue (yes a few people say it makes them want to play) it became difficult to justify them if they were duplicating what others were doing for the same event

We have some plans for blonde in conjunction with DTD and in a meeting soon with Rob I am going to try to get updates for the smaller DTD events back on the agenda

Thanks for the updates Tighty, Tikay & Tal, really enjoyed them.

In the same ball park as everyone else, I wasn't commenting but I've read every page of the updates this weekend, excellent to see them back.
