Tikay describes Ashfag Ahmed as a `cool guy', I am afraid I may have to beg to differ.
I thing I better clear something up from yesteday.
Ashfag knocked me out when we were down to about 28 players and the pot would have been more or less for the chip lead.
I had no problems with Ashfag prior to this incident.
In a raised pot I held ak and bet the akq flop. Ashfag raised the pot and I pushed all in.
It was now only about 17k for Ashfag to call into about a 180k pot. At this point he has to call the tiny extra with just about any 2 cards.
Ashfag started to dwell, stood up and started muttering about getting involved in another big pot.
He then reluctantly chucked the extra chips in.
At this point I am 99.9% certain I am winning.
I turn over my ak immediately.
Ashfag then dwells again and says either `yes, you've got it' or `yes, I knew it'.
Now I am 100% I have the best hand.
He eventually turns his cards over, TWO QUEENS for a flopped SET!!!!
Ash Hussien who was on the table said `Wwwwaaaatttt' and Gary Chatterton said `that is f*&%$ disgrace'
and called for an ace or king.
I have been slowrolled by a few scumbag yanks in the states but this one took the biscuit.
I see he has just chopped up the comp for £35k.
Made up for him, another win for the nice guys.

[NoflopsHomer]

Marcus button-raises to 70k, but Richard makes it 160k more. Paul and Marcus pass.

Next hand, Paul limp calls Marcus' raise from the small blind, but passes to a 70k bet on the board.

A couple of hands later, Richard raises to 70k from the button. Paul re-raises all-in. Marcus passes A-T in the big blind, but Richard calls with . Paul shows .



Board:



Paul doubles through.

Rough counts:

Richard -- 500k
Paul -- 500k
Marcus -- 1.2 million.

Slowrollers should lose the pot they are in.

Or taken into the car park and shot in the knees.

I agree with you tikay, I can only imagine that Ashgaf lost the plot for a split second which we all do

I am sure that's the case Iwan, I've spent many happy hours sharing a table with him, & never once has he got out of line, although I can imagine he's not a man it's wise to cross. Playing poker aparrt, I don't know the guy, so I'm not flying a flag for him, but I've played with him a great deal Live at Walsall, & Online, & he's always seemed like a proper man to me.

Maybe something had gone off yesterday & tilted him. There but for the grace of God, eh?

not sure if you watched the wsop last night, when Scotty went up against Phillip Hilm flop came 55T the scotty turned a house of 9's - Hilm put him all in with nothing and Scotty had to take the time to call because it was his tournament life - maybe same kind of thoughts went through Ashgaf's head after a preflop raise he could be behind to bigger set

ash flopped the nuts against me which would have also been for the chip lead, his tournie was on the line and he checked an rechecked his cards thinking for a while then he called. Good luck to him, wish i was a little slower when it comes to your tournie life. I like the guy, good luck to him, he's a great player and i think he should play more, perhaps calling my raise with 74 off was a bit cheeky but good luck to him now and in the future.  Andy Bradshaw.
