EPT Warsaw: Day 2 - Interactive

[snoopy1239]

The storm seems to be clearing now and everyone appears more settled. Even some flops being seen! Whilst the sky is clear, I took the opportunity to grab some very approx chip counts:

De Mel -- 18k
Helppi -- 24k
Conroy -- 23k
Grundy -- 19k
Granstad -- 79k
Boatman -- 34k
Kelly -- 9k
ElkY -- 66k
Welch -- 17k
Robson -- 20k
Gregory -- 29k
Jelassi -- 24k

And if you're wondering who the chip leader is amid all this chaos, then look no further than this young chap, who, as well as being the lucky young fellow going out with THAT masseuse, is also a mean poker player, recently running very well in the a Caribbean Tour.

Oh yes, and his name? Peter Willers Jepsen, currently leading the pack with 103k.

Good luck Priyan - hope you're not wearing that ridiculous top again........

The fabulously named Michael Van Putten Due has taken one of the those metamorphising potions and transformed into Henning Granstad, or he could be out. I think it's 50/50.

Speaking of Henning, he's been getting into a few tussles, first hand, it's his big blind and Paul Kristoffersson raises and Henning calls, then check/raises Paul's 8k bet to 20k on the board getting his fellow scandie to pass.

A few hands later and Paul raises again, called by Henning on the button and Age Spets in the small blind.

Flop:



Age checks, Paul bets 11k, Henning dwells and passes. Age check/raises which incredibly makes Paul pass , and there's a gasp as we see Age's hand...

Guess what it was?

I'd hazard a guess at:

 

[snoopy1239]

Jani Sointula and Christoffer Sonnessen have been spotted on the rail, so they're both out.

[snoopy1239]

Also caught Ross Boatman chatting with Andy Black on the rail.

Overheard the following line.

"He's hoping for a 50-50 at best."

Make of that what you will.

Mateyboy Squared one-outer news now.

Remember when I mentioned that Priyan De Mel thought he was due an outdraw after several failed attempts in previous comps? Well, he's just had it. K-Q against Aces, all-in pre-flop. Turn and River came K and Q. Fortunately, another player folded an 8 and an 8 Flopped.

[snoopy1239]

Essex's Dave Welch has also doubled up, this time with Tens vs. and under the gun raiser's A-Q. Ten hit the Flop and it was party time.

Dave now up to 31k, straight from the horse's mouth.

[Tim635]

  is my guess

[snoopy1239]

If we're going to see 'big pot' fireworks, it'll most likely derive from this table, and in particular, this pairing who are both right up there with the chip leaders, Thomas Mathiesen on the left actually leading the pack with 108k.

In fact, I know a little about Thomas. According my source, he isn't short of a few bob, owning the successful site rakerebate.com. Anyone heard of it? Anyhow, he doesn't play too often, his last outing I believe being almost 2 years ago. I don't detect too much rust though.

[snoopy1239]

And not too far behind them is amicable Norwegian player, Henning 'Granismo' Granstad.

[snoopy1239]

A shortstacked Priyan De Mel survives a 50-50. All-in under the gun with , the Brit was called by , but lives to fight another day come the board.

Like his friend Praz, he was a gent in victory. No whooping or hollering here, although I bet he was raving on the inside.
