Bolton GPT: Final - Interactive

[snoopy1239]

Praz moves all in on the button, over the top of Greg's 40k initial raise.  No call this time.

--------------------------------------------

Two friends go into battle as Praz raises pre-flop and Karl makes it 160k total.

After some speech play from both players and a lenghty session in the think tank, Praz finally passes.

--------------------------------------------

Alan Henson smooth calls pre-flop, Karl Mahrenholz calls and Ian Nelson checks.

Flop =

Karl bets 25k and takes the pot.

Looks like the dough and the trophy are coming to luton!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

Damon is a very friendly guy who makes luton a great place to play.............Take it down!!!!!

[snoopy1239]

I picked Karl Mahrenholz, and I still think he's going to take it down.

Anyone with me??

[MoodyRiver]

Has he ever won a major event?

Paul Parker? He's probably had around 50 Fessie Cashes in the last 4 years, no Major wins, but he's predominantly a Cash Player. And a survivor.

The only reason I ask is because I know for a fact that you would need a gun in your hand to get Praz or Karl to pass a set there.

and Karl might still call

Agreed, many of us felt the same. I can't pass those Nines, for sure, & I'm Mr Rockity Rock.

But that misses the point completely.

a) He may have been  correct.

b) Neither Karl, Parz, or myself, have survived in Poker as long as Paul has. Paul has played & survived at a high level of Poker since before Karl & Parz were born. So we must be careful how we relative newbies judge the man.

I just wanted people to understand why snoops made the "Paul Parker Syndrome" comment, it makes no sense unless you know what was behind it, & the story had not gone beyond those present at Bolton.

goooo on praz... he really is a class act this guy

Morning Jen.

Flushy texted me to say he'd hit a 3-outer to win a 40k Pot already!

My top three picks?

Flushy & Chubbs, great guys, play the game with a smile.

Joe Grech, ditto.

Karl - due a big win.

Praz - an absoute Gent at the Table. I watched him make an absolutely astonishing (& successful) bluff yesterday against the "hard to push-off-even-half-a-hand" Mick Fletcher for a 120,000 Pot with 8 high. He's some player, & I think I may be in love with him.

Well I still got two of my three running.
