[sofa----king]

WAIT FOR THIS ONE OF SNOOPS IWAN JUST RANG ME VVVVVVVV UL SOMEONE OMG

[NoflopsHomer]

Tom McCready aka Red-Dog is OUT and is our 6th place finisher winning £5,000

It was that man Mallu again, he limped in early position and Red pushed all-in, folded back to Mallu who called.

Red:  

Mallu:   !


Board:  

A big well done to the Dog who started off as one of the shorter stacks but got Mallu-ed.

Trevor, Ewan is still in but he has only about 92k and is the short stack. There is a break now and then the blinds will be 8k/16k.

V ul red... i don't know quite how he does it but he's a pain in the asss lol. i've been malued and it hurts, however once again red's proved he's one of the best.

[sofa----king]

is this now real poker at its best or just lets all gamble?  it seems pretty harsh that these guys have played for almost 22hours of great poker to get into the position they are in and now its just whack em in and take a chance??i dunno who am i to coment but from the sideline it looks pretty poor show from me.

well played red.

only played ali malu in a cash game and he managed to get all his cash in pre flop on the first hand blind he won it of course with some total junk, that mans got gamble.

it seems to be lately who can get to the top 9 then gamble do anyone think this is why the numbers are droping for a lot of these big buy in events?coz me and a few of my m8s seem to think its having an afect on the numbers droping

[M3boy]

chip counts please?

[ifm]

how can he call with 42?, that's just sick.

[NoflopsHomer]

Stu Rutter finished 8th in the £100 rebuy which he tells me Burnley John is running over. Stu had his tens cracked by ace eight and won £140, unfortunately he had a rebuy. Doh!


Sofa - Red probably only had about 4xBB and Ali is well stacked a gambler.


Snoops and I are down to one laptop now, Snoops gave his to give to Tikay for the updates in Paris which start this week, so I'm typing and snoopy is writing down the action.


Chip Counts:

Rob -- 455k
Ali -- 280k
Simon -- 430k
Iwan -- 60k
Rudders -- 210k

You need to hit cards at the final table and get lucky, always been that way. Got to take into account that i assume red was very shortstacked and ali could afford the gamble. Why he limps utg with 24 is a mystery tho.
