Nick Gibson is OUT

A-Q vs A-K

"I thought he was at it"

[snoopy1239]

George Geary is also OUT

He doubled up first hand with Jacks, but a couple of minutes later he was back in the thick of it with Aces. He raised to 4k but was met with two callers and a K-K-4 Flop. One opponent had K-J and the other hand 4-4.


And so is Joahn Storakers.

Shorstacked, he made his move with J-7o, but ran into the A-Q of Wille Tann.

Board = T-6-K-T-4

Andy Black has already eliminated two players - could be his EPT.

First time round he saw off Trigas Maximilianos. Trigas raised to 4k, Andy made it 12k and Trigas moved in for 50k. Andy called with his Jacks, Trigas showed 3-3, which was unable to catch up.

And then, shortly after Mateyboy ran Jacks into Black's Ladies.

Simon Nowab is OUT, he ran J-J into Rob Taylor's Q-Q, then lost the last few chips with J-6 against Jacks.

Marcel Luske is OUT Q-J vs 8-8. Board 4-T-9-6-4

Pascal Perrault and Dave Barnes are also OUT.


dpommo asked me to report his exit for his fans back at home.

"Top pair versus a maniacs top pair, I had about 30 odd thousand, but not any more"

[snoopy1239]

Rob Yong is up to around 80k after eliminating Mateyboy with Nines v Sevens on an A-9-7 Flop.

[snoopy1239]

Tim Flanders and Padraig Parkinson (second hand) are OUT.


Meanwhile...

Ade just got knocked down a peg or two, he's now looking rather sheepish after dropping down to 50k.

He called an early position raise from the big blind with .

Flop =

Scandieboy bets out 6k (leaving himself just a few thousand behind) and Ade, after a brief session in the think tank, sticks him all-in.

Scandie boy shows and is looking good and although the Turn brought the Gutshotter a few extra outs, it wasn't to be for Ade as the River saw a harmless hit the felt.

[NoflopsHomer]

Ramzi is OUT, he came over the top of a re-raise with A-8 but was called by A-K.

[snoopy1239]

Noah Boaken just had Tens v Tens, which held up.

Dave Clayton had the black ones, he remains on around 80k.

[snoopy1239]

Luca Pagano -- 48.5k

[snoopy1239]

Dave O'Callaghan is OUT.

He somehow managed to get his shortstack up to 37k after struggling through the latter stages of Day 1, but after having his A-T check-raised on the Flop (a fold which forced him back down to 19k), he finally pushed with Pocket Fives only to run into a pair of Knaves.


Roland de Wolfe has 165k.
