Amsterdam Master Classics: Day Three - Interactive

[snoopy1239]

Actually, I have just been informed that Matt Tyler exited very late last night, the Day's bubble in fact.

He made his move with 4-5, but ran into the Pocket Aces of Jan Boubli.

Obviously, no improvement.

Another name missing is Michael Keiner, who was seated next door to big stacker, Jerome Bradpiece.

Great updates guys!

Speaking of Jerome Bradpiece, it seems as though he has overtaken Keith Hawkins as chipleader after eliminating H Kakoun.

Jerome made a very good call in fact and so fully deserved the massive pot he scooped.

Battle of the blinds, Jerome made up the small blind (I think), Kakoun raised, Jerome re-raised and Kakoun moved all-in.

Jerome put on his thinking cap (well, he had it on already) whilst Kakoun went into a (ahem) Kakoun, full poker face and everything.

Finally, the Brit made the call.

A-J for Jerome, A-8 for Kakoun.

Board = A-K-2-3-T and railbird James Akenhead clenches his fist in joy for his buddy. The man who should also be pleased is Mike Tse, who has 9% in Jerome. Apparantly they haggled between 5% and 10% to come up with 9. I think Jerome needs some pracitice in skilled negotiating though.

Good luck Keith..take it down!!

I'm afriad we have two more empty seats including Mark Vronsky and Paul Parker.

Paul's seat is definitely vacant, which can only mean 1 of three things:

(1) He is OUT
(2) He has moved tables and has gone to the loo making it difficult for me to spot him
(3) He took my gag about waiting for the final table before playing a hand seriously, popped out for some sexy time and has thus been blinded away.

A naughty part of me would like it to be option number 3, but I feel the first one is the more likely.

Yes, Jerome looks to be chip leader, as pointed out by an excited Paul Parker who's been positioned right on his right.  His chip stack is currently in the shadow thrown by his neighbour's 220k+.

Next door, Jan Peter Postmus gets it all in, called by Alexander Kuzmin with .  He had , and with two Kings on the flop, it was a split, while some wit on the rail calls, "King!"

********************Break*******************

20 minutes, in which the Announcer announces we'll be getting a chip count.  How unbelievably helpful.  Like a lazy updater's ray of sunshine, that.

Here we have Norwegian, Andreas Hagen, and British player, Dave Finney, probably a face that is more recognisable to our more experienced viewers.

In this battle of the generations, Andreas made it 4.2k, and Finney raised to a total of 16 from the cut-off.

Andreas Hagen is very meticulous in everything he does, taking his time on each and every decision. He is very stoic, especially behind those dark shades, and so it's never easy trying to work out how he feels about his hand and the raise behind him.

However, after much speculation, he mucked his cards, enabling Finney to add to his now 70k stack.

Is Paul Leckey still in?

[AlexMartin]

Bonjour.

[snoopy1239]

Players have now returned from the break.

[snoopy1239]

Is Paul Leckey still in?

What makes you ask that? Have we missed his name off?

[Djinn]

Double up for Sigi Stockinger on the TV table (he seems to be quietly popping up everywhere). On a flop of , he moved in with , and it mustn't have been for that much, as he got a pretty optimistic call from Mr. Biri with .
Turn: 
River: 

And he's still there.  Quietly.

JJ Hazan is up to 128k

He re-raised Y Shenkman pre-flop and bet the K-7-7 Flop. Shenkman folded.
