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

[snoopy1239]

John Shipley doubled up to 30k by calling a re-raise with 6-7s (John was the initial raiser) and flopping trip sixes to his opponent's Kings. He is currently wearing a broad 'thank you poker gods' smile.

any decent norkage around snoops?

I'm sure he'll take a look.  For the mean time, here's Homer juggling.  Imagine that elevator music with it.

It really doesn't get any better than this 
My computer at home is poorly - so I won't be able to see any more of this until tomorrow. I'm just about to leave work and I wanted something really good to finish with - I get Homer jugggling 

My feelings are hurt.

had it been video I would have been more excited!

It's too late to start making amends....

With everyone going on their 15 minute breaks, a few players decide to stay seated and enjoy a friendly chat with their supposed enemies, one of whom is the beige trousered sandal wearing Fossilman that is Greg Raymer. I have to laugh, I managed to fool Humberto Brenes by asking in "Who's that, is he famous?" and pointing at Raymer.

Either way, Raymer's doing very well today with a very commendable 46,650 in chips

Would he be allowed into Luton with those on?

Ben Grundy: "Haven't really got going today, am on 13k but haven't been below 11 or above 16 thousand the entire time."

Ben looked a bit bored, so expect some action shortly from the milkybarkid.

Dusk Till Dawn's Dave Colclough is on 15k adding a dejected, "business as usual."

Meanwhile, fellow English pro, Harry Demetriou, is on 49k.

Yes, we're donning the shirts today, photos will be coming up shortly.

As for your boys, I believe you only have the two playing today in Dave Colclough and Carlo Citrone, but unfortunately, the latter is gone. Dave's got 15k though and is looking as sturdy as ever.

I did spot Kevin O'Connell in the lobby however, He seemed confident about his chances tomorrow, although he's not too chuffed about America's Kevin O'Donnell stealing his name, especially when people texted him during the World Series to congratulate him on how well he was doing.

Peter Linton is on 19k at the moment, but he was struggling earlier on and had to seek a little aid from Lady Luck to stay in the comp.

"I was low and nothing was going for me, so one hand I decided that I was going to raise it up pre-flop whatever my cards. I had and found one caller. The flop came , my opponent bet, I made it 1,600 and he called. When the Turn came the , I decided that he was probably on a King, but could fold if I pushed for my last 5,200, especially considering the tight reputation I'd built up. But, although he thought and thought for an age, he called with K-J and if it wasn't for the spade on the River, I'd be out."

[NoflopsHomer]

Chris Moneymaker slowly building his stack, he's on 21,250 at the moment. Elsewhere Jimmy 'Gobboboy' Fricke is sitting with 16,450.

[DTD-Nick.W]

Anyone got an update on Odd Lavik? A Norwegian travelling with Fredrik "Kirderf" Ostervold. He should be at seat 3 on table 34.

Have you got a picture of him?

Yea i heard about Carlo.
As for other DTD runner's Dave Clayton aka Rayvon and Odd Lavik (above) are also wearing DTD colour's so any chip count's on these guy's will be be well received.

Cheers

Yep, Dave Clayton is here and present although I think he may be a very naughty boy, he's got his cardigan on!
