Hello and welcome to Poland for the latest in the non-stop updating month of fabulousness. Today sees the start of the non-televised EPT Warsaw (no cameras allowed due to Polish law) in the the James Bond villain-like basement of the gloriously awesome but expensive Hyatt Hotel. People throwing their chips in, hoping to take back more, include: Dan Carter, Mark Goodwin, Paul Foltyn, Kara Scott and Craig 'the Apple' Hopkins.

Play starts at 2pm, (1pm UK) and we will be there trying to spell some impossible-to-pronounce names and taking bets on what the highest scrabble scores for said names will be.

If you want to follow someone in particular, please let us know on the interactive thread: http://blondepoker.com/forum/index.php?topic=31890.new#new

Early huge pot for, I think, Christoffer Sonesson with the two guys either side of him.

The board reads and all three are all-in.

Matey to his left:

Matey to his right:

Christoffer: The free-rolling

River: .

Matey on the right is out, Matey on the left has barely a thousand left and we have an early chip leader.

Thewy has lost about 2,700 having on an all club board against and three clubs.

Danny Ryan has knocked out Mateyboy ("He's a french guy," Benjo later says)

Frenchieboy bets 1,600 on a two hearts Two Clubs board, Danny raises to 4,200. Frenchieboy moves in and Danny calls.

A hand between the two American gentlemen below.

Two Clubs



The guy in the 9 seat checks, Seat 1 bets 300, Seat 9 makes it 850. Call



Check check.



Seat 9 now bets 1,500. Seat 1 makes it 3,000. Seat 9 is clearly pained, but then asks for a total count, which is about 9,000(ish). He decides to just call. Seat 1 confidently shows the then the . Seat 9 shows .

Near double-up for Bo 'Legato' Sehlstedt as he eliminates someone-with-his-back-to-me thusly:

Bo raises preflop to something reasonable for the 50/100 level we're currently enjoying.  Two to his left Matey re-raises to a whole 1,000 blue chip.  Think, call.

Flop:    Bo Sehlstedt checks it to the re-raiser, who as expected bets - 1,500.  Back to Sehlstedt who takes out the 1,500, puts it back, looks a bit like he's going to fold, and then slowly, calmly, ships the lot in.  Call from Matey...

Matey shows
Sehlstedt shows for a monstrous top set which duly eliminates his opponent who taps the table and wanders off.

Peter Jepsen -- 1,500
Patric Martensson -- 13,200
Woody Deck -- 16,000
Gino Alacqua -- 13,400
Kara Scott -- 9,800
Paul Foltyn -- 10,000
Marc Goodwin -- 8,150
Johan Storakers -- 9,675

Thewy has doubled up his microstack with a set of Eights against errr...6-2. He has 3,400 now.

Jari Kusta has had a bad day. Going along nicely steadily up to 13k, he then lost over half his stack to this gent with two hearts Two Diamonds vs on a Two Clubs board.



A couple of hands later he raises to 300, Dario Minieri makes it 1200 behind, Jari shoves with Jacks. Dario calls with Ace King, bullet on the flop and he's gone.

***************Break Chat, with your Host - Me*******************

First off, Kara Scott, cool as a cucumber in her Pokerstars outfit and generally enjoying herself immensely... She says that she's had the Aces once, but it was in early position and scored her some blinds, and apart from that it was Gino Alacqua and the guy two to his left who seemed intent on fighting each other over her blind every time.  "I don't care," she said, "If they want to go crazy over my blind when it's only 100..."  Other than that she took a small hit just before the break started after raising with A-Q and finding the shortstack Matey on her left getting it all in against her with 2-2, which stayed good.



____________________________________________________________________________

Dan Carter hasn't played many hands in the early levels.  He lost a few after raising to 225 with Kings early doors, getting two callers and a J-8-6 flop.  He bet 500 at this juncture, and both Mateys called.  The turn brought a 4, and now First Matey bet out 1,500.  One of those 'sigh' moments later and Dan had called, "With the intention of checking on the river, or folding to a bet."  The river wasn't remarkable, but he did fold to Matey's 2,000 bet...

He does say that Dario Minieri is "destroying the table.  It's really annoying because he's never calling a raise on the button, for example, he's always re-raising.  What do I do in the cutoff?"

Julian, who wins more races than Michael Johnson, has doubled up again. This time with against on a board. Up to 6,700 now.

Craig 'The Apple/Water' Hopkins -- 9,000
Pab (on the same table) -- 8,500

Woody Deck raises it up from early position and a short-stack shoves from the button, saying, "I know I'm getting called."

Woody calls.

Shorty shows:

Woody shows...erm:

Board:

three clubs

A anti-climatic river after so much flop fun. Sad

Meanwhile on the next table, the Science Teacher look-alike Johann Storakers raises to 450 from mid-position. The small blind, Samir   Shakhtoor, raises to 900. The big blind, Dennis   Bejedal, then does a evil genius type strokey-beard thing and says, "Johann Storakers..." He repops to 2,500. Johann folds, Samir instantly moves in and Dennis instantly called and there's a split second moment where I and the rest of the table watching, are guessing who has the Kings and who has the Aces. It's Samir though with the bullets and Dennis shows his Kings.

Board:

(but spread out so there was not two shouts of "Ohhhhh", as in one for each card, but just one very long "ooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhh!" as the turn and river came

Finally,

Musicwatch

This man listening to his music so loudly that everyone in the poker room can hear it. Our Canadian friends say it is Avril Lavigne's song "Girlfriend" which includes such cutting lyrics as:

You're so fine
I want you mine
You're so delicious
I think about you all the time
You're so addictive
Don't you know what I can do to make you feel alright?

James Honeybone is standing up. Head in his hands, saying, "I should've folded, I know you have Aces," before trying to justify it at the same time rhetorically asking, "I came all this way from New Zealand to fold Kings preflop?"

But this was all after he had been in with against Anders Henriksson's .

A Two Clubs .... was rattled off and the Swede had just 650 chips left and whilst Honeybone has about 26k now, he's still trying to replay the hand in his head as to whether he should pass, whilst Anders was probably thinking...

In Brit on Brit action, Terry Cook raises to 700 from the button, Dan Carter makes it 2,200 from big blind, Cook shoves, Carter passes.
