Copenhagen Main Event

[tikay]

Boaz Lavie - I will try & fnd out for you.

[jbsc7769]

I dont know what time they started there but if they have that many left and are playing down to 9, that could be a VERY long night. Good YoYo had some practiceat the late night tourney in Luton last week.

[tikay]

The Final will be an 8 player jobbie. 23 left now.

Thewy is living up to his Yo-Yo nickname. From 45k to 90k back to 45k & now having just busted a short stack (Thewy A-T v Low Stack K-T) he is back to 53k. All in 10 minutes. I have a hunch that Julian & Noah are gonna clash big time soon.

Marcel has cornered the market in low denomination chips, & has them in his trade mark "pile 'em high" stack some 30cm high! Think he has about 90k, hard to count though.

Padraig is on course to make history - the first player to make the money in an EPt & a WPT Event in the same week. Least, thats what he tells me.....

Ram Vaswani, one of the real class acts in the field, looks cool & unflustered, probably about 70k now & absolutely cruising.

Sadly, Vicky Lincoln has exited, but she did so with the grace & dignity of a real Lady.

Bambos is sitting quietly with about 40k.

Xuyen Bad Girl Pham has been card dead for the last 6 levels, and has an awful seat.

I am struggling to find any news on Boaz Lavie.

Thanks for looking. It's a great website you've started here.

A big thanks to Joe Beevers & The Hendon Mob.

He has been incredibly helpful to blondepoker.com & in particular tikay, tonight, when we have been struggling to do updates for the first time.

A big thank you to Joe who is an absolute gentleman.

[tikay]

Julian Yo-Yo Thew is making a nonsense of our updates - he is back to 90k again!

In a pot with 5-6 of spades (he's tightened up.....), he check raised when he flopped 4 to the flush & his oppo moved in with top pair, Thewy caught the flush. Quality starting hands, that's the secret of Thewy's success.

[tikay]

It's BUBBLE TIME

19 left, 18 get paid, it's hand for hand on 3 tables. When it gets to 18, they break for the night, & return tomorrow.

Eric 123 Sagstrom busted out 20th in a 120k pot with TT against the chip leader, the Danish guy Petersen (?).

Noah 55k

Ram 130k- ducking & diving, & playing hardball.

Padraig 66k

Pham 17k & clinging on now, card dead for hours.

Bambos 50k

Marcel 120k

Thewy 90k.

18th gets paid about 35k Danish, thats about 3,500 english. (still no pound sterling sign on this damn computer....).

come on Julian, TV stages again. I wanna close look at what you're upto.
Good work with the updates Tony. What time things kicking off tonight?

[M POWER]

Thanks for the reports Tikay all good stuff.

Good Luck Julian

[tikay]

Thanks Guys

They commence battle at 1500 local time (1400 UK time), & play dow to a Final table of 8. It's a TV table & so it'll take a little time to "wire" everyone & get them set up, so I guess there will be a break of an hour or two before the Final starts.

We will be doing updates throughout.

OK, gotta go. Dinner with Thewy & Bad Girl in 10 minutes. They pay me to coach them, you know........

[Karabiner]

And me thinking all the while that it was Jim'the bandit' !

 

[tikay]

Thewy in action first hand - he had AA (he get's no luck that boy, eh?) against the all-in Katja Spillum with Q-9. Thewy's AA held up on a board of T-7-4-J-A, he wins a pot of some 70k, & unlucky Katja is out.

17 left.

Then Padraig, on the other table, found AA, against Lindholt Juntgungen (?) with KQ off. Board was Q-5-6-Q (ouch!)-9 , for a 70k pot, leaving poor Padraig down to about 30k.

[AdamM]

killer

[tikay]

Jarkko Laine is OUT.

16 left.

Xuyen Bad Girl Pham & Padraig both hanging in there.

18th, 17th & 6th all pay 34k Danish, 15 to 13th inclusive pays 40k Danish. Divide by 10 for real money.

Blinds now 2k-4k, running ante 400.
