DTD £150 £50,000 Deepstack Mid-May :Day 1a

[Chili]

So Lonely by The Police now. White reggae. Before Sting became a tosser.

As no one is reading, I will admit to buying the 7 inch single of De Doo doo doo, de da da da by The Police once

Ahhhh one of my fav songs ever by The Police, pre-sting tosser days obv, was The Bed's to Big Without You. Bass to die for....



sorry for derailment.

Paul Grummitt knocks out Pete Evans

Grummitt Jacks versus Ace-King suited

Jacks hold on 5-6-7-8-6

From across the table comes a plaintive cry

"oh no, I would have hit a full house"

Not a great fan of those sort pf exclamations personally. There's a reason why you don't play 5-6 to a raise and a 3 bet shove sir.

How old are you Maria?

How old are you Maria?

How old do you want me to be?

Ian Gascoigne shoves 50,000 with A-J

Mark Robert calls all in with A-7 in the small blind

Joseph Cockburn wakes up with J-J in the big blind, calls all in too

120,000 main pot, scooped by Jacks



Gascoigne short, open shoves 10-9 next hand, reshoved by Babak Naini with A-Qss

5-3-8-7-6 and Gascoigne doubles back up with a clench of the fist and a David Hirst like pout

Manic Monday by the Bangles


I do a mean Susanna Hoffs on the Karaoke



Lastbreak of the night, one level left  32 left

blinds go 2-4k

Average 160,000

All chasing Wadey (not literally, even I would catch him) with over 400,000

[TightEnd]

John Picken gets  in pre against Wadey's 

flop 

Picken doubles up when it comes  , up to 90,000

[TightEnd]

Interesting time for the forum to go down, very tempting to head off to bed

sadly it came back :-)

[TightEnd]

Still 31 left with a few minutes to go

Unusual, no flurry of late exits


Paul Grummitt has 300,000 and is certainly top 3 in chips. He just shoved over a Jamie Moult lateposition raise, eliciting a fold showing the Ace of Spades


Umar Khan just shoved a flop of  as the pre-flop raiser against Wadey's big blind. Wadey think-folds and is shown "my favourite hand" 

[TightEnd]

How many of these can you recognise? Ever wonder that when you walk past to the smoking area?

There are 35 caricatures, reckon I can get 24 with confidence. Not too impressive
