Walsall £750 Day 2

[AlrightJack]

JP and Justin Turner have now set off back South, so Its AJ here again.

Hassan pushed all in from early position with TT.

Bambos calls for 54k with AK.

Flop 552

turn 7

river J

and Hassan has doubled up.

[AlrightJack]

The blinds have just gone up to 5,000/10,000

James Atkin in the bb

Bambos flat calls, David Knight flat calls, D Clarke goes all in for 80k, James calls, Bambos and David pass. James asks 'you got aces or kings?' 'Nope' as he turns over KQ and sighs...as James has QQ!

6...A..2..........

King!

...5

James sighs even louder and shekes his head. But he's still on about 200k.

copied from wrong thread

re: james atkin - from what i hear he is quite remarkable - some story! - needs an image consultant though, he looks like a real 11yr old cyber geek (makes milkybarkid look like desperate dan) - perhaps i'll get robert binelli to help him out.

[AlrightJack]

Blondite Craig (I know it) doubles up!

Makes a move with QJ. Bambos calls with nines

325 flop
8 turn
river...........J!

[AlrightJack]

Bad news...

The very next hand Craig has A9 and is up against Hassan with AK. Missed the action, but a nine and a king came out to leave Craig as our 7th place finisher. He looks gutted, probably because he is. Well played Craig, keep knocking and the door will be opened soon.

Gooooooooooooooooooo Craig!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[AlrightJack]

Bambos and Sami all in...Bambos flips over AK. Sami reveals his cards one at a time. First an ace, then a king. They split the blinds.

[Ironside]

unlucky craig

bambos is a man on form a the moment and my tip for the top

he had a  couple of results last week in blackpool and another 1 or 2 in walsall

so come on BAMBOS show the kids how its done

[AlrightJack]

James makes a 25k raise. Bambos goes all in for maybe 140k. James calls. The crowd draws closer as Mickey Wernick peers over James shoulder while I peer over Bambos's. Bambos has AJ, James has AK. 4 rags on the board and as the irrelevant king hits on the river James celebrates and accidentally smacks Mickey in the teeth...ouch for Bambos and Mickey.

'That'll cost ya a large whiskey' says Mickey.

'Technically it wasn't ABH unless you're bleeding' quips law student James.

With almost 400k in chips, he'll be hard to peg back now. 5 left.

[AlrightJack]

all good natured btw

[Junior Senior]

wow!
are they just giving him chips or what?!!!

bambos AJ
DJL AQ

[AlrightJack]

The players are on a break and while James buys Mickey some booze, here's the chip counts

Atkin 334k
Hassan 247k
Clark 215k
Knight 126 k
Sami 79k

Going to have to move to another spot as the evening comp will be taking place where I am sat now..Hope the reception on my mobile card is as good over there...

[booder]

splendid reports alrightjack , much appreciated

[AlrightJack]

OK, they've had dinner, during which time Mickey showed his press cuttings to his assailant and now they're back to fight it out for the £30k top prize.

The good news is my mobile card gets even better reception up here. Never even seen it with 5 bars before...

[AlrightJack]

Not a lot has happened so far. Sami and Knight have both moved al in once to steal blinds, thats about it. The Omaha comp is about to get underway so the place should quieten down a bit soon.
