Welcome to latest GUKPT update straight from Walsall, where last year Jerome Bradpiece took home the trophy. Can he repeat the feat this year or will we be crowning a new champion? One person it won't be, is Julian Thew, who is taking a break this week (the poker community breathes a sigh of relief...), however all the usual suspects should be here, so let us know if there's someone you want us to follow.

In the meantime, whilst we're waiting to start, here's a video that made me chuckle this morning, someone edited a few scenes from the Wicker Man remake and spliced them together to make it look more unintentionally hilarious than it was before.  Enjoy...



Guest updating today will be Bongo, whilst Chili will be helping me out from tomorrow onwards.

Tournament begins at 3pm.

It looks as though there will be around 118 runners today. Is it natural for there to be less than last year? Has the lack of TV coverage affected to numbers? Or is it just that most of the players want to spend a bit more quality time with their better halves on Valentines Day?

The tournament still hasn't started, but hopefully will be underway soon.

Floppy is in a rather odd mood today and keeps asking me "How'd it get burned?"

Quick update... they have just started!

Over on table 6, there's a pot as the gentleman to Nick Slade's left checks to Ali Mallu who checks behind on a board. Ali shows his for a rivered straight, but was waaaaaaaaaaaaaay behind to the straight-flush. Although he only won a small pot, he got some consolation, a bear hug from Nick Slade for his river check



Dave Colclough and his EYEBROWS OF DOOOOOOOM!!! And Pete Singleton.



Ian Woodley bets 1,100 on the turn of a board, his opponent mucks, leaving Ian muttering, "Fackinhell..." I'm guessing he felt he bet too much,.

Finally at this juncture, unopened pot on Ariston's table. One player opens for 2,000. Gets no callers. I can't confirm that he showed Jacks and declared, "I only ever seem to lose a big pot with these..."

As I arrived in the arena I saw the end of a hand between matey boy and matey girl, both holding baby aces on the A high flop. Matey boy being the victor of a rather meaty looking pot.

Another matey boy moment, this time with 5 of them! 

An UTG limp was raised to 250 by the Hijack. The button started a string of calls as the SB, BB and original limp all called.

The flop came
  three clubs

Quickly checked round to the raiser who slid a lone 500 chip into the pot. The SB was the lone caller and the 2 mateys saw the  on the turn.

A quick check from the SB saw matey boy in the hijack bet out 1000, again a single chip.

After a brief thought the SB calls and the river is black... but the two spades doesn't complete the possible flush draw.

A quick check from the SB sees 2 chips being slid in from the hijack - a 1000 and a 500.

The SB dwells up and passes, a bit of an anti climax but a decent boost to the stack of matey boy in the hijack!

Just in: now upto 124 runners!
