So who the leaders at mo?   

Sam Hapak -- 77,400

[NoflopsHomer]

Stu Rutter and Petr Hedblom tangle, Stu raises to 2200 in EP, Petr next to him re-raises to 6000, it's passed back to Stu who re-raises it to 20k leaving about 8k back. Petr eventually mucks and Stu shows AK... What did Petr pass? TT perhaps? Is that how to play AK?

Pommo is OUT I'm afraid.

[Numpty Dumpty]

i would guess that stu figures there is enough in the pot to warrant taking it down there, rather than having out of position tangle. if flop misses he is going to struggle to take hand

I wouldnt have shown though

[HornswaggleU]

I think its a fine way to play AK noflops, how do you think it should be played?

[Numpty Dumpty]

hmm very interesting one actually. obviously if petr had AQ then bad play from stu,but seems unlikely for a reraise. the bet takes away the position disadvantage, and knowing stu im sure he doesnt want a 50-50 against tens or jacks, which surely cant call here. what do u reckon homer? admittedly not much point in showing tho true

[rudders]

hows martyn cavanagh doing??

[better than hellmuth]

Yeah no point in showing.....unless hes settng him up for later, so that puts stu on about 40k yeah?

What do you know, your just the updater

[Colchester Kev]

what price Ivey donking off his chips before the end of the day so he can fly over to Dublin tomorrow for the Ryder cup ??

[snoopy1239]

Just witnessed a huge Mateyboy squared moment between the two players either side of the dealer.

A massive pot which increased in size on each street, eventually culminating in an all-in on the River, which was called.

In the end, with the board reading , Mateyboy on the left had Q-Q, just pipping his opponent's Pocket Knaves.

If his intention was to set him up, wouldnt it be better to show rags?

[HornswaggleU]

Stu is just managing his image at the table as he sees fit, he won't show many times.

The standard is probably fairly high seein as it is an EPT event, showing someone rags once at this stage probably
isn't going to send them on an UberTilt

[better than hellmuth]

Depends wasnt saying he def was merely maybe depends what e thawt the other guy thawt he had really

If Luke goes on a losing run in poker, he could always turn his attention to architecture.
