The William Hill Grand Prix II @ The Broadway - Birmingham

[The Camel]

Lucy obviouslly picked up some sort of tell.

For goodness sakes he was totally at it...

I've seen Lucy make some fantastic calls with very weak holdings...she went with her read and nearly got it right.

She is right far more times than she's wrong.

[Chili]

13 left. OUT is Ian Foster and just this second - Dave Smith.  Dave was down to 35k and pushed all in with    but Woodley woke up with    and sent Dave packing.

Ian on 125K.

Blinds are 4,000 / 8,000 with 10 minutes left at this level.

Chilli u should not have reported that as u have just put her reputation down the toilet amongst the BLONDE ARMY. Ah well it was good whilst it lasted Lucy.

It was not Chili that reported it - it was me - tikay.

I reported the hand as played.

I have the utmost respect for Lucy, as a player, and a friend.

I did not understand the play, but the Lady is an awesome player, & we must all respect & acknowledge that.

Tikay mate l know your the big daddy on here, and l respect u as lve played and watched u play a few times, BUT l have my own opinions and dont have to respect anyone that u tell me too.

That was A CRAP CALL, whoever puts their chips in first there, with position should take that pot down which yer man had. I 've only been plaing 7 months, but if l'm making calls like that in 6 months, nevermind 25 yrs l want someone to give me a kicking and dump me in a ditch.

[Chili]

I go back out and we loose another 2 players.  Paul Jackson  (A Q) disposed of Rob Stevens (8 10) double suited PJ said.  Then Kev O'Connell knocked out Dino Constantinou.  Hand for hand now and as soon we are down to 10 I will try and get all the chip counts.

So 11 left.

Looong night ahead!!

[Indestructable]

Good luck to Paul, maybe his night?

Perhaps this reply when you have no idea of the context of the hand proves without doubt if you play for another 100 years you will never be as good as Lucy.

[Chili]

We have a Final.  The unlucky bubble was K Chowdry (not too unlucky because they all did a £500 off the top deal for 11th and £120 to the staff.).  Adrian Bates raised, Chowdry went all in and Ali Mallu (again) went all in.  On their backs:

Chowdry 
Bates       
Mallu         

Board was    .  Bates took down about 100k but Alli actually made 100 chips from Chowdry's all in.  MMMm

Camel in another year l will be better than LUCY ever was and thats not taking the piss. Play has moved on abit and the old guard  results will die out more and more in the next few years. I don't have to prove my ability to anyone on this forum as l improve every time l play. I think your ego has clouded your reply, something quiet common in English Poker players.

I don't mean to be funny but has Lucy been around on the circuit for the last couple of years? her last recorded cash was Feb 2005 for €4700 in a €1k event. She picked up $8k in Jan 05 in a $2k US event. She got her buyin back on the ladbrokes cruise Oct 2004.

She of course won a Vic event in Oct 2004 for £50k, but since then nothing. Does she not play these events anymore? Has she moved online?

How exactly has ego clouded my reply?

I'm not the one claiming I will be better player than Lucy. In fact I know she's a better player than me.

Your ego is quite astounding Sir.

I wiould love to set up a heads up match between you and Lucy, but unfortuantely she has some class and wouldn't stoop to playing you just to prove your words are nonsense.

What a great comp and turnout. Updates are great Chilli. Please wish Action "The Plodder" Jackson some luck. Not sure about these comments about Lucy Rocache, personally I think she is a very good player who is very brave in all situations, whether calling or raising. She has not been playing as many events over last couple of years, which would account for her lack of results, I don't actually know her that well personally. In Barry Greensteins book "Ace on the river", he descibes her as "probabaly the best NL hold'em female player in the world." She would have had a good reason to make this call, I am sure of that.
