Bluesq.com GUKPT Grand Final: Day 2 - Interactive

[Mango99]

An awesome quality field here today for Day 2, should be a great day of fun, froliks and sickly turns & rivers.  With about 15 mins till the start of play, I'll go and see what's happening pre start and possibly try and pick up that elusive confirmed prize payout.

Can you cause some kind of distraction to delay the proceedings? e.g. steal the trophy, set the fire alarm off - that kind of thing?

We are considering sending down a streaker. I'm not sure which will cause more of a delay though, Floppy or Chili?

lol, that should do the trick

Text update from Carter: Delay on the line just outside Paddington. I don't think he's going to make it much before 2.30pm Hopefully he'll still have a few chips left...

Wahoooooo action straight off the bat.  First hand of the day, Alan Dean with only 16,800 made that push with  only to find Ben Vinson completely dominating him with  .  No miracle board for Alan and he is out in 70th place.

Dan Owston is OUT after running Kings into Ross Boatman's flopped flush with .

Karlos Mahrenholz has departed the building pushing over the top of Dave Colclough's raise with , only for Dave to make the call with , the board coming one of those "Hurrah.....Oh bugger." moments:

Stuart Fox has knocked out Paul Webster with K-T against 9-6 and is having his table broken, which he's glad about due to the fact he did have Maz Nawab's equally big stack directly to his left.

Feast your eyes on this picturesque shot of the cardroom in all its start-of-day glory. Isn't it marvellous?

[snoopy1239]

We may be experiencing more casualties than an episode of Chicago Hope, but there have also been the odd double-up, one of those falling at the hands of yesterday's grinder of the day Paul Moss.

Perhaps sensing weakness from the initial raiser, Fatmarra made a timely push with A-9, only to be called by a welcomingly inferior A-8. Loverly jubberly.

As a result, Fatmarra is now on circa 47k. Doesn't he look happy? Almost like a kid on Christmas Day who's just seen all his presents burnt to a crisp.

[snoopy1239]

Kevin Jenkins has just been cabbaged, his all-in with K-Q running into the Poket Cowboys of John Kabbaj and receiving no further assistance.

Meanwhile, Karl Mahrenholz has bitten the dust, although we don't have the details.

[snoopy1239]

They were counting out the stacks as I departed, but it looks as though Paul Webster is down to the felt after his all-in with A-Q on a Jack high Flop was correctly called by Martin Bader's K-J. Due to their seating positions, I can only assume that Bader called pre-flop, before sticking to his guns on the Flop. Bader was duly rewarded with a blank turn and river for a welcome double up.

[snoopy1239]

Mr Manuel Palanca has been a busy boy, first re-raising over the top of Mike Ellis' pre-flop button raise, before pushing all-in moments later against Owen Lock and surviving once again.

Here's the moment Mike Ellis was caught with his panties down.

[Chili]

Maz Nowab never shy of action, knocks out Haran Paheerathan.  All in preflop:

Haran 
Maz   

AQ holds for about 20k extra over to Maz Nowab.

-----------------------------------------

Dan Carter has entered the building finally and only lost about 4k in blinds.  "It's ok, only one steal for me!" enthuses Dan.


-----------------------------------------


Michael Ellis has doubled up through Rumit Somaiya.  Ellis, no messing about went all in from late possition with  .  With Rumit in the cut off - he announces all in too with  though.  Ellis had 42,200 so a double for him and Rumit down to about 40k himself.

[Chili]

Ian Frazer with only 13,200 on a flop of    goes all in and gets a call from Maz Nowab.  Maz hitting the flop again with  and Frazer just in desparate mode with only  .   An Ace on the turn though gives Frazer that much needed double up and Maz gives over about 15,000 that he can afford to lose anyway.

Did Mick McCool show up in the end ?

No, there has been no sign of Mick McCool this week.

Didnt Mick cash in the £300 earlier in week?...

[CrestOfaWave]

Tell Paul Moss he can smile on his next double up.
Never seen him so serious before.
Any news on Matt Novak?
