EPT Grand Final - Monte Carlo: Day 1A - Interactive

[NoflopsHomer]

Judging from the way he has turned the slowest of slow starts into 32k by the first half of the dinner break, it looks like you might be hearing more about him, Hans...
and the Beatles reference in no way is meant to imply that he talks absolute nonsense.  A calm, slightly intimidating player who reminds me a bit of the Terminator (not Arnie, the other one) he's actually a pretty laid-back guy who drives halfway across Europe for a poker tournament (ask Roland) and whose plan B last time was to go to one of P Diddy's parties...

The other one?

You know, the policeman, "Have you seen this boy?"  Turns into mercury...

The T-1000, Robert Patrick.

Joseph Karl Michael   USA

Do you have a photo of him?

Norwegian unknown Hans Varsi locks horns with the titan that is WSOP 2005 champ Greg Raymer.

Seat 1 raises it up pre-flop and finds several callers including Varsi and Raymer.

Varsi (seat 2) then bets 2k on the Flop, Raymer the only caller.

By this time, a biggish crowd is standing around the table, if only because Raymer is in the pot.

Turn =

Varsi checks and Raymer bets 4k, Varsi calls.

River =

Varsi checks again and Raymer bets 7k.

At this stage, there is a BIG crowd watching, Greg Raymer the target of their glares as he puts on his best poker face.

After a long wait, and a few grimaces, Varsi eventually folds.

Later, I got the hand off fellow Nowegian BA Kildalen, but my question to you guys is:

(1) What do you think Varsi held?
(2) What do you think Raymer was betting with?

Both players had above average stacks.

JP Kelly is OUT - just caught him exiting the tournament area as I was wandering in.  He didn't look upset, but I think that's because he was still in shock over his exit:  After a preflop raise to 600 and one call, JP moved in for 5k.  One of them got out of the way, but the other "called instantly" in spite of the call being around a third of his stack.
JP: 
Caller: 
Flop:  5-7-8 (or all low, at least, one club)
Turn: 
River: 

A big call with Ten-high, and apparently JP had been looking to get this exact player to help him out - but it wasn't to be.

Plz get a report on Annette Obrestad (Annette_15).  Last I heard, she was at table 22.  You can't miss her: she's probably the shortest person in the room.

The seat Ashley Alterman was last seen in has between 13 and 14,000 - that half of the room is currently still on dinner break.

We heard that they would be playing seven levels on each Day One.  Factor in the breaks, and that is around 2am, probably.

[snoopy1239]

How is Foxy doing ? Okay I hope, please ask him if the structure is to his liking....

Stuart Fox -- 23,500

Board =

Mateyboy checks, Kevin O'Donnell checks, Stuart bets 2,775.

Mateyboy fold and Kevin, after a dwell calls.

Stuart shows , Kevin taps the table and mucks.

"Did I get you on the River," asks Stuart.

It was a bit mumbled, but I think Kevin confessed to holding K-T.

Thanks Jen. I always said, if you want a job done well, ask a woman to do it.
