Anyone else qualified, or playing?


Let us know on here please and we'll update on your progress through the week

[DMorgan]

Anyone else playing this? Heard rumblings that there might be overlay. I can see them struggling to hit 250 players for a 1k so close to the main event in vegas.

[TightEnd]

No one?


Interesting


there may well be an overlay of over €30,000 at this weeks Killarney event of the UKIPT tour.

I know kaibobble will be there because we have a date at the bar at some point over the week-end.  Herself and the DTD lot are arrive at some point today.  Not sure about the rest though.  Will keep ye posted over the week-end as I'll be popping in there now and then to say hi and rail if needed.

Cousin's wedding on Saturday ruled me out...

[Laxie]

Met Kate and a few from DTD including Alex and Simon.  Few drinks and a Thai meal later, we were entertained by a proper character called Jim.  Don't know his second name, but man...he makes ME look sane!  lol  Gosney is due in town tomorrow and kick off is at 4pm.  I'm off to Dublin in a couple of hours (5:30am wake up call - marv) with the kids to get their US passports, so won't be back to Killarney until around 9pm.  Will post if I hear anything newsworthy for ye once I get there.

Day 1 » Killarney » Season 1 » UKIPT

ukiptthumb.JPGIt's said that if you took a long enough lever and had a place to stand you could move the Earth. Well, that's what Archimedes said but then again he did run naked down the streets of Syracuse shouting 'Eureka!' so perhaps you shouldn't trust everything that flew out of his gob. If you took that said same lever and balanced it perfectly it would mean that you'd be slap bang in the middle and that's exactly where we are at the UKIPT Killarney, the centre point of the Season 1 tour. Enough of existential ramblings, who are the overinight chipleaders? They are Irishmen Vinny Gavin (79,850) and Sean Molloy (77,350) who are doing their best to follow in Padraig Parkinson's footsteps and keep the Irish UKIPT titles on homesoil. These two are leading the charge of the 143-strong field that are coming back to play day 2. Over one hundred players fell today from the 253 that contributed to the €253,000 prizepool and another hundred more will face elmination before the payouts begin with a €1,650 handshake for a 32nd place finish.


Brits wise don't recognise many. Toby Lewis 23,000

Manchester final table finisher Dan Owston is the prime candidate for play of the day, one which he freely admits was fuelled by a little tilt. Kate Langshaw had limped under the gun at the 100/200 blind level and had been raised to 700. Owston had called from the small blind with 2♥2♠ and check-called 1,650 on the J♥3♥6♠ flop, 3,100 on the 5♦ turn and a final 6,200 - from his opponent's 11,000 stack - on the 9♣  river. A fail here would have left Owston with a mite over 2,000. 'I would have put him in for my last few chips if I thought he'd call,' said Owston who refused to show his hand until his opponent showed his A Q . Fishy calls or Brunsonesque underpair to the board bluff catch? We'll leave that to your discretion but we'd like to err towards the latter. Owston finished the day on 40,350.

Wiiiii I can confirm Hugh does in fact exist and is currently sat with a few of us creative drinkers out on the patio. Can't explain the 'creative' tag just now. Will wait and see how we fair first. Pic to follow if I figure out how to do it.
