Walsall GukPT Day Two - Interactive

[Djinn]

And in around the same minute, Maria 'Chili' Demetriou is OUT - sick of being a short stack, moving in and picking up blinds to stay level, she found , raised to 5k preflop (leaving 12k behind).  Nik Persaud, who'd just been moved to her table with towers of chips re-raised to 20k.  His reputation preceded him (she said, "He was calling everything, had chips up to here...") but this time, when she called, she found him with .  I think a King came, too, just making sure, and she's off, although not too upset seeing as she double qualified for this event, and gets to play the next one.

Just got some texts from Dan "Lucky Scrote" Carter..

Started on 13k for the day, in 104th/129 runners.

Up to 32.6k by 4.45pm, 46k by 5.15pm, and 78.6k by 5.30pm.

That must surely be some kind of record!! Keep it up mate!!

Rory McHugh is OUT.

Nick Slade took most of his chips with K-T vs A-T.

But he was eventually finished off by The Welsh Wizard, Iwan Jones, whose A-K was more than enough to see of the shortstack's (and I mean VERY shortstacked) McHugh's T-9.

He was teased though, Ten first card, Ace on the Turn.

A bit more detail on the stack-destroying Nick Slade hand - I saw the chips which doubled up Nick heading his way on a board with the in front of Nick and the in front of Mchugh... I was just puzzling over what had happened when Iwan Jones says, "Look, Jen's trying to figure out where the money went in on this board...it was preflop."  A sheepish look from Nick, whose rivered Jack for the straight kind of went over his head for a few seconds before he realised he'd been given a new lease of life.

I saw him moving in repeatedly early doors...thought he wasn't in a sitting still kind of mood.  He wasn't called the times I was watching, however, but something has clearly been going right for the guy.

Unlucky Chili...


Come on Flushy Fish!!

[Mango99]

Go Lucky Scrote and Flushy! (would be good to see you finish top 2 - in that order! )

Peter Smyth is OUT.

His flabber is very gasted too.

"The guy in Seat 1 made if 4k, I moved in with Queens for 25k and he called instantly, no hesitation, I couldn't believe it... A-J. Of course, he hit his Ace and the rest is history."

[Djinn]

Paul Moss has had a pretty good afternoon - early on eliminating Tim Blake with A-K vs. Q-J, and then getting into a three-way pot with Kings, which got him up over the 30k mark.  More chip counts after a full circuit of the Room (which now involves a kind of detour round the TV table building site...).

[snoopy1239]

John Vaccarella is also OUT.

Coinflip with Ian Woodley, John's Queens losing out to Ian's Big Slick.

[snoopy1239]

Also caught Stevie Rees on the rail. Nines v A-Q, Queen on flop.

[snoopy1239]

Edward Phipps and Andrew Douglas are gone too.

Everyone in the press room has agreed to use the following line...

"Them bastards killed Kenny!"

Sry.
