Yesterday's end of day chip counts can be found here:

http://www.blondepoker.com/index.php?q=node/8099

[snoopy1239]

Nic Slade has lost a few k with two pair vs. an open-ended straight draw which hit on the river.

Bertrand Grospellier is up after his 2-3 flopped trips on a K-3-3-6-5 board.

Kevin O'Connell ran into Anders Berg's flush (6-8) on a K-Ad-Td-7s-3d and paid off the 600 to 1,500 River re-raise.

[snoopy1239]

Anders Wijk, who you may recall from Copenhagen several weeks back. Anyhow, he's just eliminated Jonny Hewston in dramatic circumstances, catching 'Texas' with his fingers firmly trapped in the cookie jar. On an all heart flop, John had hit top pair with his A-Q, but come the River, the board had dealt out four hearts. Still, this didn't stop John Hewston taking a stab, well, more than a stab really, with him betting out, Anders Wijk minimum raising and 'Texas' moving all-in. Of course, Anders had the Ace of Hearts and oc course he called, leaving Jon to wonder aimlessly around the rail with a slightly perplexed expression on his face.

Marcel Luske -- 11,650
James Honeybone -- 10,625
Luca Pagano -- 9,100
Rolf Woods -- 10,775
Nick Slade -- 10,000
Matt Tyler -- 10,950

[NoflopsHomer]

Elky raises from the cut-off to 300, Ben Grundy re-raises from the button to 1200 with . The ex-gamer calls.

Flop:



Elky check/calls Ben's 1800 chip bet.

Turn:



Elky checks, Ben checks. Now at this point Ben looks at his cards and realises he doesn't have the at all but the !

River:



Elky bets 2k, Ben moves in for 6k. Elky calls and mucks. Ben on around 18k, the Frenchman was down to 6k as I left the table to watch a couple of others, but when I came back a minute later Elky was back over 10k again. He's faster than a Quake Pr0 that one.

[snoopy1239]

Iwan Jones -- 13,475
Jonas Molander -- 9,750
John Conroy -- 10,100
Thomas Wahlroos -- 8,800

[NoflopsHomer]

hey could i have an update on how tom grundy is going please

He has 15k at the moment, piccy to follow a bit.


Morten 'Pokergirl' Erlandsen (He of the super huge shoulders) is a bit short. Ben Grundy limped for 150, Morten made it 750 which was flat-called by the Jacob Wisniewski in the big blind, Grundy folds.

Flop:



Jacob check/raises Morten's 1200 bet to 2500. Morten calls

Turn:



Jacob leads out for 2500 and Morten passes. I think Jacob flashed something along the lines of , but the cards weren't lifted up high enough for me to see properly.

[snoopy1239]

Martin Vallo -- 13,200
Anthony Mackay -- 7,950
Roberto Matic -- 13,125
Alec Torelli -- 7,200
Age Spets -- 19,625

Peter Willers Jespen -- 8,975

Just after I completed those counts, Tony Mackay doubled through with vs. Scandieboy's .

All-in on Flop with the board reading

[NoflopsHomer]

Flatcalling with full house news now. (Blinds still 75/150)

Seat 6, (who I think is Cornelis Alblas) limps, Christopher Ulsrud makes up the blind and Roy Brindley checks.

Flop:



Checked round.

Turn:



Checked to the limper who bets 425, Christopher calls and Roy folds.

River:



Now Christopher bets 1200 and Cornelis calls.

Christopher:



Cornelis:



A bit cautious?

Elsewhere, Matt Tyler claims, "I'm being outplayed by eight players, luckily Tony Cascarino is here."

Cautious set play now.

Helge Rahbek Pedersen raises and finds two callers in Peter Eicchardt and Espen Uhlen Jorstand.

Flop:



Jorstand check calls Pedersen's 600 bet, Eicchardt gets out of the way.

Turn:



This time Jorstand check calls a 1,700 chip bet.

River:



Both check.

Pedersen:



Jorstand:

[NoflopsHomer]

Ash Hussain raises preflop and leads out on a board and he is check/called by his only opponent Cornelis Alblas.

The turn is an and Cornelis checks, as does Ash.

The river is the dangerous looking and Cornelis leads out for 1,775, Ash thinks for a while and raises to 5,000. Cornelis calls quickly and Ash flips over . Cornelis mucks his cards in disgust though I saw he had . Good raise.

On the same table Roy Brindley raises from the button to 500 and Azad Pirooti pushes his 3.4k stack all-in. Roy calls.

Azad, "You got a good hand Roy?" As he flips over .

Roy, "I hoped I was in a race." Showing .

Board:

.

[NoflopsHomer]

Kevin O'Connell is on

He made it 600 from the button with and found a similar sized stack push all in for around 6k.

Eventually he called and found himself up against .

Board:



Seeing the river, his opponent let out a whoop of delight and told the table how he doesn't ever hit any outs.

This left the DTD player with just 625 chips.
