DTD Monthly Freezeout Day 1 - Interactive

[The_nun]

Bookie Basher Jim Moult has been sent to the rails by the infamous Alli Mallu.

Ali raised pre flop to 750 in 2nd position Jim shoves all in for 5.2 k. Ali A-T v Jim's Th-Jh. The A high holds.

Two hands later he chops a board after calling short stack David Statham's all in with A-K against David's A-T but with the board paring it was a split pot.

hows al gettin on hic

Merlot?

nah guinness & malt

He might be ordering both those beverages, and then some, because he's just been eliminated from today's event. I took a photo of him and his once 12,000 stack just moment before, and stayed around long enough to witness his demise first-hand. With the board reading, , Alan made a move with , but ran headfirst into which duly made the call. Alan had outs, but none of them emerged on the river, the merely rubbing salt in already open wounds. "He'd been pushing me off pots," grumbled Alan afterward. Sadly for the blondeite, this was the occasion where his opponent actually had the goods.

Charles Denton has seen his stack increase two fold courtesy of Ali Mallu. Mallu has a loose reputation, but he had the goods this time. Sadly for the Bolton GUKPT runner upper, so did Denton, as out-gunned on a board. It wasn't a fatal hit for Ali, who still has over 20,000.

67 of 118 remain
blinds are 150/300 with a 25 ante

The banter is running rampant on Marc Goodwin's table, predominantly due to the mere presence of Des Jonas.

"I've got more yellow [25s] chips than anyone," announced Des.

"Does that mean you've bit nicking the blinds?" I asked.

"Nah, been changing them up a lot," he replied.

"I'm rocking up," claimed MrCool.

"Yeah, granite this one confirmed Des.



Next time I returned, the table were laughing hysterically, the type of laughter where a spot of urine can slip out unnoticed. Even Pete Singleton, who is one of the most in-the-zone players on the circuit broke his focus mometarily to raise a smile. What they were giggling about, I have no idea. Can anyone hazard a guess?

[snoopy1239]

After being check-raised from 1,150 to 3,500 on a board, Tony Salmon made the call before leading out for 3,500 on the river. Andrew Rhodes made the call, but didn't seem too happy about it, especially when Salmon revealed for the rivered flush. Rhodes showed the .

Rhode -- 5,125
Salmon -- 17,000

Play has now resumed with another 3 levels to play tonight 66 remain.

[snoopy1239]

Greg Hill is out. It would have taken a jar of Vaseline and crowbar to prise the exit hand from him I'm afraid. "Doesn't matter what the hand was, I was short. Just couldn't get going today."

Short stacks are starting to push all over the shop one of which I managed to catch just as the turn card hit the board.

There had been a little action between Terry Brown in late position and Garinder Purewell on the button, resulting in a pot of around 5k. Terry Brown pushes in the remainder of his stack around 8k, over the top of Garinder's test the water bet on the board of        , forcing Garinder to fold and Terry to flick over 1 card . 

[snoopy1239]

Not too much action since the break, the players teasing me by moving the chips around, but refusing to give me a showdown to report.

Nevertheless...

(1) Ali Mallu just re-popped Ky Hutchinson from the small blind, 1,400 to 3,650. Hutchinson, who was sitting in the cut-off, had 5,000 behind, and seemed tempted to stick it up Mallu, but eventually went with the fold.

(2) Marcus Bebb-Jones continues to accumulate enough chips to put Harry Ramsden's out of business. His bet of 9,000 on a board took down a nice pot when Klys Miroslaw folded. A few hands later, and Klys Miroslaw exited.

(3) On a flop, John Sadler bet 1,200 and Jon Spinks called. Both checked the turn only for Sadler to lead out on the river for 1,500. "Go on, I call," sighed Spinks almost reluctantly. Sadler shook his head as Spinks took it down with .

By the way, if anyone knows anything about any of the players mentioned today, then please feel free to share your knowledge with us. Similarly, if you have a request, or want a particular chip count, then request away.

Er well, I arrived late and took my seat at about 8.40pm, I was on my way out the door by 8.55pm courtesy of a set over set jobby on the flop, that filled up on the river versus Lawrence Gosney. That was an expensive 15 minutes entertainment for the evening LOL.

[snoopy1239]

Ian Lyons just eliminated a short-stack who pushed UTG for a total of 6,900. Lyon's made the call from the small blind with , his opponent showed . A board later and the pot was his.
