First hand back after the break

David Hide raises the button, Turk calls in the small blind

flop 


Turk check raises and is called

turn 

Turk shoves 20,000 into 8,000 or so

Hide gives it a massive think and eventually calls all in with 

Turk flips 

"pair the board" he implores, momentarily forgetting his OESFD

river  and Hide doubles through Turk to around 48,000

Ok so if Flushy's haircut was the result of a prop bet, how much did he lose to wear this get up in Vegas? (any doubt about the location of home town is now completely ended)

It must have been a prop bet, right?

Looks like the Borg-like Tilt assimilation procedure is nearly complete.

More fun and games at table Turk

Turk has doubled through since I was last down there, and he raises to 600 at 100-200 in the cut off

Toby Lewis calls in the big blind

flop 

check, Turk 1350

Lewis c-raises to 3650.

Turk ponders and calls


turn 

Turk "that is the dream card, for someone. Maybe me"

It goes check check

river 


Lewis leads 6,500

Turk "I should have gone all in on the flop"

Lewis "you have  ?"

Turk "close"

He calls with  and Lewis shows  for the flopped nuts

"I knew it" says Turk,"if I had put you all in on the flop I would have lost all my chips"

Got Pab and Brammer on my direct left and Jim Moult but other than that table is soft. Does seem a tough field though so think I've ran pretty good with the draw.

100% right mate. only one table i would choose to sit on in this event (and it aint yours). starting today is such a disadvantage to playing tomorrow. the field is stonger by far, better degens play today and go on the piss friday night, as the entrants are less then later on in the night as the numbers reduce then the on line short handed experts have a clear edge. plus with the loaded treating it like a double chance then you gotta avoid more than a few minefields.
you can use my one time alex coz i never used it, gl
