The Vic Live EPT Update

[Djinn]

Hello there wsop - Dave is clinging on to around 5,000 but it's hard to tell from the sidelines... No - hold that - Dave moved all-in for 4,850 on a flop of
 

Call from Sven Polarski with  ad

Dave held    tc 

The turn came  , the river  ts!  He doubles up to over 10k.

Other TV table counts:

Gusten Sjaberg 17,500
Richard Gryko    38,000
Simon Trumper  7,000
Sven Polarski     22,000

Other Yo-Yo count - 23,000 after making, according to Phil Quayle, a huge call for all his chips.

That's your lot Andrew.. no more wine

[Thorma]

uh oh, i'm predicting that the tilt-sensitive polarski will be out within the next 30 minutes now...

[Djinn]

So - Greg Raymer moved from the TV table with over 45,000 in chips.  I just so happened to see him call a guy all-in just now with  jd jc vs.  ks  kh.  The Kings did their job and doubled the guy up to 42,000, which means he just lost about 20k in that one hand.  Ouch.  To his left Chandra Khajuria has 25,000.

Kiril Gerasimov (To Mr. Thew's right) has just taken out Michiel Brunnelhuijs taking his stack in two big hands. 
I caught the second one where on a board of  qc qs he moved all-in with  kd tc and was called by Kiril's  ad .  No help came and the Dutch player is eliminated (Rolf looked briefly saddened)

[AndrewT]

That's your lot Andrew.. no more wine

OK, The_nun has spoken.

BTW, our paths have crossed before. At an SNG at the Betfair forum night at the Gutshot, I was the guy whose eyes you spent a wonderful ten seconds looking into whilst deciding whether your pair of nines were good in the face of my limp/reraise all-in.

[The_nun]

I Enjoyed that weekend very much....

[Djinn]

So Julian's table now looks like this (after Julian made a brave move with pocket eights on a 7 Q 9 board, betting 10k against his opponent (the button) who called with Q K and took 13k off him)...

Julian Thew   6,500
Kiril Gerasimov  36,000
Kevin O'Connell 13,000
Dave Shallow    35,000 (I didn't notice the little stack of blue 5,000 chips for a minute)

Also, I just saw Raymer call KK all-in preflop with his 88... and spike an 8 on the river, sending him back to what must be around the chip lead.

[Djinn]

Quote from Greg Raymer about his surprise success for over 20k:  "I thought you had a baby pair, you bet so much.  You got me good; I got lucky."  Hands were shaken, feelings not hard.

Aha theNun, you've been rumbled - he'll be telling the blonde world how you play any second now...

[The_nun]

Stop him .. Now...pleaseeeeeee

[Royal Flush]

So that makes 2 of us after Sven's chjp count!

Also i spoke to a swede on the phone about 1hr ago, Viet is his name Vietnamese-Swede, he was on Sven's left but is now out, he is planning on checking out the gutshot tomorrow he has no idea how to get there so i told him to "ask the old guy with dyed blonde hair"

Has he narrowed it down to Tikay yet?

[Djinn]

While distracted by the excitement upstairs, the lone table remaining downstairs seems to have given Ram Vaswani 40,000 chips, and Anders Berg 30,000.  They are getting rid of the green 25 chips at present, so there's enough time to grab a red bull and try to get the camera to work...

I have to say that despite the new batteries, the Battery Warning Light is still ominously glowing and it won't let me take any more bad pictures.  You might have to wait for the return of Tikay to get the goodness from the camera.  I never said I was any good with technology...

[Pontecarlo]

send all the best to dave shallow from the betfair forum please jen if you get the chance

[AndrewT]

Jen and The_nun - I would never reveal a lady's secrets...

Pontecarlo - the revelation of 'the real' Dubai was the highlight of the BFWCOP for me - it's superb to see you wishing him well. Dave is a top bloke and an almost limitless fountain of entertainment - go Dave!!

[Pontecarlo]
