Irish Poker Championships: Day 2 - Interactive

Thomas Dunwoodie has jumped from 9k to 30k after his 8-7 made trips on an 8-8-x board. Mateyboy had Threes.

Double up for Dave Callaghan - it's all going right for the young Irish player - moving in with , he found a caller in C. Kennedy's .  The board brought two Kings and no danger after the flop, so Dave's up to around 60k from less than 20k at the beginning of this level.  Mr. Kennedy is literally down to the felt, one layer of chips which, yes, I can see just now have gone...

C Constantionou has bitten the dust.

Danced his last waltz with Pocket Eights, but found two callers, one of whom hit 2 pair by the Turn wiht A-T on an T-5-A-K board. 9 on the River was no help.

There was a short stack under the gun all-in on Jim Reid's table just now - the bet, less than 15k in total, was pretty quickly called by the next player to act.  Slightly less quickly, Jim Reid then passed (Deuces, he said), and the caller actually added, "Do me a favour, all of you fold..." (ah, the total relaxation of anything resembling a Moody Rule, wonderful to watch).  They all did fold, and all-in showed , while caller showed .
Flop: 
Turn: 
River: 

Double up for UTG, slight scowl for Jim Reid.

Not too sure of names because of all the moving around, but the two player sandwiched either side of the chap in red just locked horns, finally ending in a nice showing of hands.

The guy on the left raised pre-flop, only for the youngster in the blind to call, thereby creating a 7k pot.

Flop =

Mateyboy checks, original raiser bets 4.5k.

Mateyboy then goes into the think tank for a bit, eventually folding face up (I don't think he was ever going to call)

The winner of the pot also showed.

Any ideas what they had? No trick question here.

First correct answers wins a coconut.

Quick clue... the winner had the best hand, but he wouldn't have like a re-raise.

And here's a wider view of a couple of the remaining seven tables we've not covered too closely - if anyone sees anyone they know and want an eye kept on, let us know...

Big stack for Mr Pat Callaghan, who is the current chip leader with 125k.

Meanwhile, two players across the other side of the table, one of whom is Albert Alexander, managed to get it all-in with A-7 (yep, both of them) on an Ace high Flop. Albert had a backdroor flush draw, but it never materialised.

Dan Smith    34,000
Dinh Le          OUT
Kieran Small   38,000
Billy Ngo         OUT

Snoops, QQ v JJ?

[snoopy1239]

Big stack for Mr Pat Callaghan, who is the current chip leader with 125k.

Correction, Ciaron Burke was the chip leader with a huge 180k, but he's just dropped down to 150k after a encountering a fearless Richie Lawler.

Flop =

Lawler (right and button) bets 7k, Burke makes it 21k and Lawler moves all-in for 69.5k.

Burke (left) seems to be in pain, but eventually opts for the fold.

Lawler proudly reveals

Georedie lad, Thomas Dunwoodie, is OUT.

First lost 30k to Mats Iremark with middle pair and flush draw vs K-Q on a King high board.

And then lost a coinflip with K-Q vs T-T. A King on the flop teased the Brit, but the following Ten forced him onto the rail.

Snoops, QQ v JJ?
