phew that was a lot to catch up on!! Great work gang. GL to Andy Black. He was obviously warming up for this game playing the €50 double chance in the Fitz on Tuesday night!! lol
He keeps putting himself in good spots to get a really big score in these events and I hope this itme it comes right for him.
Andy is absolutely dominating his table - with what I can only describe as a fearsome intensity, he raises almost every hand with a kind of routine - grab some 1k chips, cut them in, while throwing a couple more smaller denom ones in for good measure, stare at everyone as they generally pass, and restack the blinds and antes with alarming speed and dexterity. Then grab some black chips and rotate the top five, followed by the bottom one, top five, bottom one until the dealer is ready to start the whole swift process again.
Just now a young chap in a green hoody (could it have been Andrew Robl?) re-raised his utg preflop raise of 2,400 about another 8k. Andy called instantly. They check-checked their way down to the river at lightning speed, and the board stood
. Andy bet as soon as the river was out: 12k. He was called immediately, and showed a winning
.
It looks like his fast-paced, unrelenting aggression inspires quick reactions from his opponents too - not giving themselves time to think about decisions. He's about as focused as a person is possible to be without setting fire to the baize with the concentration of his stare.
