Bluesquare.com Plymouth GUKPT: Day 1A - Interactive

[NoflopsHomer]

Chips are clicking, cards are being dealt, all the anticipation is over and we are underway!

Still surveying the lay of the land, but I can tell you that John Hewston, James Dempsey and Barry Neville are occupying the same felt. There's likely to be a bit of chip movement, not to mention banter, on that table I imagine....

Barry just raised to 175, Flushy made it 600 more with Aces and Barry passed. Too much, young James, too much.

With the change in gaming laws, players now don't have to be in their seat for the first hand, and alternates can join up to the end of the second level. So with that, you can now tell who were the kids who were always late for class in school, examples 1 and 2 being Praz and Karl, swanning in late...

[NoflopsHomer]

Yes, the back window glare is annoying, hopefully they'll shut that soon.

was that martyn cavanagh on table flushie too?

 and any results from yesterdays omaha boys........?

90 runners seems a bit disappointing considering most of the previous events on the tour sold out or were close to selling out, excellent value with the 10k added to those competing though. Apparently only 105 runners for the WSOPE Horse event which sounds a bit disappointing too. The glut of festivals must be slowly taking its toll on players pockets.

Since we are short on runners today perhaps now is a good chance to test the newish camera on the local norkage or else we might have to start a petition to get the beagle back behind the camera.

4 way chop involving Jaffacake for about £2k each.

I finished 8th.

Yes.

Not masses to report on so far, only 45 minutes in i guess!

Paul Parker is sharing the felt with Praz, and not suprisingly was found to be happy, smiling and chatty when I arrived, well I never!

Praz seems relaxed and prepared for the long haul, still with his starting stack as yet unaltered....

Des Jonas, whose arms are only slightly smaller than Flushy's mouth, was reportedly unhappy early on when he bet and an opponent threw in a 1k chip announcing call. Des apparently didn't hear the call and assumed it was a raise. It got a bit hairy for a few moments with Des "nearly swinging for the guy" apparently.

Click on the link through to some pictures of him from blondepedia and you'll see why this COULD have been a slight problem for his opponent! Luckily the language of diplomacy held sway, although there could be fireworks on this table later.....

I disagree.

On a completely unrelated matter, here are Karl Mahrenholz's and Iwan Jones' tables.





Over on table 3, Rod Langton limps under the gun, Andreas Kallis min-raises, five people, including Langton call.

The flop comes . Check to Kallis who bets er...50. Ben Vinson makes it 250, Langton calls, Kallis and everyone else fold. Both players check the turn before Vinson takes it down with a 750 bet on the river.

Don't ask me what Kallis was doing, I just work here.

Simon Leseelleur (more E's than at a rave) raises the button, Iwan Jones calls in the big blind for 100 more.

The board comes and is checked down til a 300 bet from Iwan takes it on the river.

Maybe because Plymouth takes 8 1/2 hrs to get to?

Ok, should be ok, but you do need excel i think to run it, so I'll post up a jpeg of the image for those who haven't invested in the full microsoft office suite - shame on you!
