DTD Monthly £300 - Day 2

[NoflopsHomer]

Another of the chip leaders is Amer Latif who is actually from California and very much enjoying the setup here at DTD. He has 240k.



I'm very proud of this action shot. Obviously it was completely unintentional.

Daniel Copeland has doubled up through David Mundle.

All-in on a flop, Copeland's proving too good for his opponent's after running Jacks sealed the deal.

37 players left means.....Bubbletime and assorted MC Hammer goodness.

Geoffroy Buffetrille was in fact 38th, so we're hand for hand now, with a vigilant Chris watching for the last unfortunate non-paid member of the tournament to hit the rail.

Jeremy 'I Will Raise Your' Betts is the unfortunate bubbler, pushing with for not much more than Paul Gourlay's initial raise with . Gourlay duly called, albeit reluctantly and fully expectant of brutal domination, but the board ran out and it was like we were at a roulette wheel. No more Betts.

4 tables remain and everyone else is freerolling their hotel bills.

I salute you.

22   1   Paul Gourlay - 140,000
22   2   Andrew Papageorgiou - 165,000
22   3   Jeremy Betts - 55,000    (OK I know he's meant to have just gone out, but someone's sat there and I never was sure what Mr. Betts looked like and there seem to be four full tables of in-the-money players so I am not sure if he's really out now.  Will ask seat 3.)
22   4   Ken Wheatley - 160,000
22   5   Jordan Burnett - 122,000
22   6   Steve Brown - 80,000

Oops, this is wrong. It was actually Peter Wigglesworth who got knocked out on the bubble. My apologies to all, Jeremy 'No More' Betts is still in.

wasted pun "in my opinion" (that's just for you Mr Channing).

[NoflopsHomer]

Paul Lammas has benefitted fully from the aggression of James Williams. The latter 4-bet shoved from the button with against the reraise out of the blinds from Lammas, who quickly called with two black aces. A unhelpful 6-4-3-2-9 board later put Lammas up to about 150k and knocked Williams down to a short stack with only about 40k or so left.



Stephen Holloway, Matthew Lewis and Chris Brammer cause a ruckus with a rather large pot. It's K-K vs A-A vs 9-9 respectively with Brammer covering, the board is Q-6-7-3-4. Lewis trebles up and Holloway wins a smaller side pot.

Tom Rutter and Michael Millar are duelling regularly at the moment - both with tidy stacks (Rutter's a little tidier).  Just now Rutter reraised Millar out of the small blind preflop, and Millar instantly gave it up.  "Chip dumping!" shouts Pete Charalambous.  This is widely denied by both players, who are doing that "What did you have?  A strong hand?  You call a reraise?" verbal tango.

"Text him your hand," suggests Pete.
"I put my phone in the washing machine," admits Tom.
"You didn't have a hand," they continue badgering each other.  "I had half a hand."
"Chip dumping!" Insists Pete.
"Why would we chip dump?  We have the same stack!"  Though this is not really a valid argument, it distracted Pete long enough for the next hand to be dealt.

Michael Millar



Tom Rutter staring at Michael Millar in yet another reraise pre confrontation (this time Millar reraising out of the big blind while Rutter is on the button):

 YBA.

 Mark "The Thistle" McLuskey FTW (wish him luck from me).

 Also is that the legendary Mr David Barnes?

When you're a big stack you just run good don't you?

Amer Latif calls the all-in of short-stacked pusher Terence Simpson

Latif:
Simpson:

(and already Simpson is looking very depressed)

At the same time  on the table next door Harry Dunnel pushes with James Williams pushing behind.

Dunnel:
Williams:





Williams, "Four times I've had him in with the best hand and we've chopped..."

I'm afraid Mark Mccluskey went out about 10 spots before the money, and Dave Barnes was one of the first post bubble exits in 35th place.
