Brighton GUKPT: Day 2 - Interactive

[NoflopsHomer]

Roberto Romanello has tripled up with Ace King against Barney and Marty, hitting an Ace on the flop. He's up to 80k ish. Anthony Romanello is, meanwhile a bit gutted with his call with Nines against the Jacks. "Only mistake I made," he said.

Taner Hasan is OUT in 20th spot (£2,100).  Short stack pushing preflop, he found newly re-chipped Roberto Romanello - definite favourite for Climber of the Day - calling, along with the other blind.  They checked it down - Roberto's had flopped two pair, and for the all in Hasan was the last hand he played.  Handshakes all round, and Roberto clearly barely believes what a comeback he's on...

Pictured, Hasan putting on his coat and Roberto bouncing around too much to take a steady picture...

Sick exit for Richard Ashby, who can say nothing more than this one-word condemnation of the occasional cruelty of poker... Richard Ashby raised to 30k preflop (blinds are now a chunky 5k/10k), Mad Marty re-raised 100k from the blind, and Richard's chips were over the line as fast as he could push them without their falling over...

Marty wasn't thrilled with this, but he said, "I can't fold..." and the chips went in.  He showed .
Richard Ashby showed and promptly walked away from the table eating noodles as the board cards were dealt.

Marty, on the other hand, stayed glued to his seat.
Flop: -"Ace!" shouts Marty
  "Ace!" shouts Marty
  "Ace!" shouts Marty
Turn:     "Ace!" shouts Marty.....

[Djinn]

River: 

"Good luck all," says Richard.

Nik Persaud is OUT in 16th place, made his move with 9-8, but ran into Shaf's A-Q.

Raj Modha doubles through Marty Wilson with against , all-in on the flop I'm guessing.

Board:

Quickly following in the last 20 minutes of play tonight is Koroush Nikkhahe, who finishes in 15th place (for £2,400, slight jump from £2,100)... can't say any more than preflop vs. - Albert Sapiano's overcards both hit and he was just covered.  Consolidation of two medium stacks into one very large one now for the Day One chip leader.
