Amsterdam Master Classics: Day Three - Interactive

[ariston]

jules has to come- he usually runs real well at blackpool and a lot of the players you would expect wont be there (softer fields??). Will see you all there and will probably on the rail drinking myself most of the week- maybe a guest update one night if you lot are only coming up for the main event??

Ranking pints?  Is that some kind of drinking contest held in conjunction with the poker festival?

Yes, but only the first 10 count.

And we've lost another, this time Brit Dave Finney, who really is one of those under-the-radar type players, rarely seen playing a big pot, yet always seems to make it through to the latter stages.

And he got his money in ahead too, re-raising Jonathan Fahl all-in with Tens, only for Fahl's A-4 to Flop an Ace.

Although the looked grim, the created 9 more outs to the flush draw, but the final spade never arrived and a bad beat takes out Finney in what I believe is 18th place.

[The Dundonian]

Go ON the Camel keep in there!

[snoopy1239]

Andreas Hagen is OUT.

The Norwegian found a pretty strong holding in A-Q, but it was ultimately no match for Alexander Kuzmin's A-K, which held up on a board of K-Q-3-4-4, eventually making four to a flush on the River.

[snoopy1239]

16 players remaining.

I think they're aiming to play down to a final table of 9, but with the casino closing at 2 (so I've been told), they may be forced to come back tomorrow with one or two extra, especially with the 90 minute clock and still relatively small blinds.

[snoopy1239]

You guys still keeping up?

Who's the smart money on at this stage?

How's the Camel when it comes to playing with a slightly diminished stack?

[snoopy1239]

Irishman Tommy Watson is OUT in very exciting fashion.

Classic 50-50 with Tommy and Frenchman Alex Jalali Abadi, Queens (Tommy) versus A-K all-in pre-flop.

But how about this for a board?



A cruel River for Tommy and the Irishman exits in 16th.

That was the last hand of that level, we are currently on a short break.

 

[snoopy1239]

Here is the 'popular with the ladies' Andreas Hagen, the fellow who departed in 16th.

Not sure where the camera man's gone though, he seems to be speaking to himself.

[snoopy1239]

Two more faces for you.

First up, Frenchman Jonathan Fahl, and below him, German player Michael Keiner.
