Bluesq.com GUKPT Newcastle: Day 2 - Interactive

[danafish]

One gentleman finding himself short around the bubble will be Mr Alan Vinnicombe after losing a sizeable pot to Mr Ganesh Rao.

Mr Vinnicombe limps in early position, small blind Mark Dalimre also limps, and big blind Ganesh checks.

Flop - - and it checks around to Alan, who bets 7k. Mark gets out of the way, but Ganesh just-over-min-raises to 15k. This looks suspicious. Alan looks suspicious. He calls.

Turn - - and Ganesh instantly announces all in. Alan looks like he's in pain. Eventually he passes, leaving himself only around 20k.

Also not messing about around the bubble, Lynne Beaumont. She relieved Ian Farrell of 7.5k, pushing all in for 33k or so to his raise in a blind-on-blind confrontation out of which he emerged the loser and she the Lynne-r  .

Stiil on the

Alan Vinnicombe has doubled through Ganesh Rao with Tens vs Nines.

Pete Linton raised to 7.7k preflop and fired bets of 10.5k and 20k on the flop and turn of a board but folded to a push of 25k more.

Rob Sherwood moved in over the top of Adam 'Clarkatroid' Clarke's button raise but wasn't called.

Clarke then just re-raised James Akenhead's UTG raise from 8.5k to 30k, making the Hitsquad member fold.

Still waiting for this bubble to burst.

[JASEKELLY]

Go GO GO   ADAM CLARKE!!! aka "clarkatroid"  at last he is having a better run in one of these events! Lets hope he goes far from the Blackpool crewe!!!!!!!!!

Yes indeedy, our bubble has burst like an overripe tomato hitting a mediaeval adulterer in the stocks, and in classic unfortunate outdrawy fashion too.

Peter Smithson shoves from the button, and Dara O'Kearny in the small blind calls him more or less instantly.

Dara -
Peter -

Board - an absolutely standard

Ouch.

[NoflopsHomer]

Play will restart at 10pm.

Poor old Mr Smithson.

Rob Sherwood raises to 8k (just before the end of level). James Akenhead makes it 26k. Rob does the long slow deliberate chip count think, takes a breath and then announces he's all-in. James immediately asks how much more, it's around 70k or so, which is too steep a price that James is willing to pay. He folds, Rob is up to about 130k.



Cheryl Routledge has doubled up with vs .

Joey Lovelady and Fraser Macintyre have a big pot going.

The board reads where Fraser checks and Joey bets 40k, much deliberation ensues. He then calls. The is on the river and Fraser moves all-in for about 62k. "So lucky," mutters Joey, "You're so lucky."

He passes and is down to about 150k.

"So lucky."

[NoflopsHomer]

Adam Clarke raises to 10k. Pete Linton makes it 22k, Adam Clarke moves all-in. Pete has about 45k behind and decides to call for his life with A-8. Clarke shows Jacks, but Pete catches an Ace on the flop and another on the turn for good measure.

"How can he call there?" asks someone in the pressroom.

"Because he's shit!" says another.



Anyway the 'Jacks' curse is quickly passed on to Pete, he raises with them, enough to cover Mike Hill who I think must have called blind because he found himself all-in with 7-2 against the Jacks. And then made a full house to double up...

[danafish]

Adam Clark, not happy about having his Jacks cracked by A-8:




And indeed, the very next hand James Akenhead raises to 11k and Pete flat-calls, only for Michael Hill to shove for just 15.9k total. Obviously both James and Pete call. When the flop comes down James checks, but Pete bets 40k - James folds.

Pete -
Michael -

Turn - (oooohhh)
River - (OOOOHHHH)

And Michael doubles up. Says Jon Raab, "You've just done a Pete Linton on Pete Linton!"

This is the face of a man who's gone all in with 2-7 when he knows he's getting two callers:

We have an outage in the shape of Ms Lynne Beaumont. Pockt Eights against Pete Linton's A-T. Pete hit, and Lynne hit the rail.
