BADEN EPT - Day 1B - Interactive

[NoflopsHomer]

An early position raise to 525 is re-raised to 2050 by the small blind, there is a short dwell and then a call. Everyone else folds.

Flop comes 

SB bets 5050.

EP moves all-in.

SB calls immediately.

So what did they have guys?

5050 pretty hefty bet - committing self with nut flush draw?  Or hoping the other guy will and he has 2 bad pair?  I know I could just ask you when you get back.  But I don't want to.

"It's good but it's not right..."

SO what did they have?

AA and AA.

Here's George Danzer and Ross Boatman. During the last break, George was telling us about the 10/20 cash game he was playing last night. With a 3-player straddle. Yup, 40/80/160.

The early chip leaders. We'd love some names to go with these faces.

Ash Hussain has been moved since his table has broken. He now has position on Mark Teltscher. Expect fireworks...

Hi all, doing a fantastic job

any chance of Pomroy and Gryko updates please

[NoflopsHomer]

Jen here -

We're doing the Wireshare thing again... ah well.  I can tell you that there seems to be (apart from the Megastacked Russian) more of a discrepancy between the haves and havenots chipwise today than yesterday.  Take Andreas Hagen, who I just saw moving in after there were two limpers, from the small blind. He had just 4,425, and eventually under the gun limper Matey decided to call with his (a bit of an odd play all round) while later Matey passed, as did Thewy on the big blind.  Hagen showed:  .

Why, certainly.  (Jen again, in case this all turns out to be fabricated and someone tells off NoFlops.  Although it's all true.  Every word.)

Just saw DPommo play a hand from the button (what a surprise) - he raised to 800, as you do, and found the small blind re-raising to 2,600.  Eventually he called.
Flop:  .  Small blind Matey quickly throws in 3,000.  Call from Pomroy.
Turn:    Small blind Matey's chips are in before the turn is fully turned over, and a reluctant pass comes from the button, whose table looks to have toughened up, as new players thread in from the broken tables at the back.

I'm back!  I'm back!

Just before Homer brings you up to date on George Danzer, a couple of hands which I just couldn't help watching since everyone else was.

First, a lengthy dwell from a fellow German, we shall call him German Ben, on a board, on which George had moved in for around 12k into a 3,500 pot.  Dwell of all dwells, then pass, then shown ...

About two hands later, George raises to 800, and Ross Boatman (a short stack) called in position, as did the big blind.  The flop came:  .  Checked to him, he bet 2,000, and lost both opponents, this time showing no less than ...

Dear friends,

Am I to take it that there is no sign of Mr Fish? Ummm. Wish me luck, Snoopy's making me play something expensive at Gutshot. More photos of Mr Afro and steak, please...

Love,

Interesting and true story, with maybe a photo or two later. Just been chatting to Woody Deck () who exited the comp late last night, apparently he went to play mini-golf tournament today with two random austrians and Richard Gryko's mum! And she managed to finish 4th overall and was undefeated. 

I watched a bit of George Danzer too.

First he called a LP raise of 1k in the BB. Blinds 150/300

Flop:

 

George bets 1500. Called

Turn:

 

George had annouced, "Check in the dark." His opponent checked too.

River:

 

George bets 2000. Called by the LP.

George:

 

LP:

 

He then got involved in another pot holding  and called a 2100 bet after the BB had bet out the turn of a  , the  river was no good and he was forced to fold to the 5k bet on the river, leaving him with just 2700 left. BB showed

Ok, shall do. I know he's out of the main event because he went into day 2 with about 3 or 4 chips. Maybe he'll eat out of boredom...
