Cardiff GUKPT: Day 1B - Interactive

[snoopy1239]

Another brave (or silly depending on your viewpoint), this time from Dave Smith.

Flop =

Dave bets 4k, Stephen Slavin moves all-in (as pictured) for around 30k and Dave calls for his remaining 16k saying, "I can't pass".

Dave =
Stephen =

Turn =

River =

As the Turn hits, Slavin looks disgusted and can't help but mutter his detest for Dave's call. "How could he call that?" he says shocked.

Dave doubles up and Slavin is left with 14k.

James Atkin has been playing with unexpected steadiness (and is threatening to make Day Two), but just lost a bit, doubling Steve Craig up in the process.  He raised in early-mid position and found Steve pushing in on the cutoff for a further 7,400.  He eventually made the call, with his rather dodgy-looking , but Steve had so at least he had two overs...
Flop:    (Steve, presumably, draws breath and holds it)
Turn: 
River: 

So down to 23,600 for James, up to 20k for Steve.

James counts out the chips with the face-saving, "Why is it always the worst hand you raise with that gets seen?"

In the final two minutes of the day's play, I spot Dave Colclough with all his chips neatly stacked over the line, patiently waiting for Pete Haslam to make a decision.  From the positions of the chips, I deduce that Dave raised preflop, Pete made it another 10k to go on the button, and DC moved in for 27,700.  The ebbing seconds of Day1B tick away, and Pete passes, meaning that El Blondie will finish the day with a tidy 42,000 chips.

good job guys as always

[snoopy1239]

Bit zapped here, so I'll leave you with the fork jobby and post the chip counts as soon as I can. Not sure when that'll be, but they'll definitely be on the site before the start of Day 2.

Toodle pip, peeps.
