WSOP PLO $5000 with rebuys

[redsimon]

Did Dave C give this a miss?

[Colchester Kev]

Ram Vaswani is kicking ass so far, i hope he does it, he is a smashing chap and very modest.

[ariston]

Sure I saw dave on the list earlier with about 20k.

[sig75]

Any news about the young Norwegian Edgar Skjervold?

[tikay]

Dave played, & is still

47 players left overnight.

Chip Leader is Ram, 148k.

Edgar Skjervold is mid field with 36k.

Dave Colclough is lowish with 10k.

Another Norweigan (there are TWO??!!) Vegard Nygarard is also there, 10k.

Simon Trumper is hanging in with 5k, Devilfish has 1k.

9 get paid.

[bobby1]

I like our chances in this event.

[tikay]

I had a glance at the remaining players - you could well be right Bobby - over a third of the field can reasonably be claimed as "ours".

As well as Ram, Dave Colclough & Simon Trumper, & Skjervold & Nygarard, the two Norweiganish guys, we also have.....

Eugeny Kafelnikov, 92k.

Surindar Sunar 75k

Sigi Stockinger (Austria, 59k)

E C Cohen (Paris - is this Le Dangereux I wonder?) 48k

"Bruno Jais" (Paris - maybe THE Bruno???) 46k

Ross Boatman 39k

Tony Bloom 37k

Robin Keston 36k

Eddy Sharf (Germany) 33k

A Swagaru, (Birmingham - maybe Brum USA - help me Karabiner!) 21k

Chris Bjorin (London) 18k

Richard Ashby 12k

Mickael Ustinov (Moscow) 10k

Ben Roberts 10k

Dave Mehrmand (Germany?Iran/Persia). 8k

Surely we gotta go close in this baby?

[Karabiner]

I'm not familiar with Mr. Swagaru, but I believe "le dangereux" is Robert Cohen.

Sorry to be of little assistance.

There's an A Sivaguru aka doc who plays at Walsall, nah can't be him.........nah, can't be. He's actually a surgeon.

Checked the spelling on a couple of sites and it ain't him.........couldn't have been really, nah.

[tikay]

The Font of Wisdom is cllosed for repairs. Hopeless. quite hopeless.

You need to buck up Karabiner. Try Harder.

[sig75]

For those wondering, Edgar Skjervold is the one who won the Pokerstars "World Championship of Online Poker" Main Event last year (his nick is "ragde" on Stars), a $2500 entry online tourney with more than $460000 in first prize. Both him and Nygaard are high limit players both online and in Norwegian cardrooms.

[tikay]

Was he in Bergen Sig?

[sig75]

No, not this time, he had already left for the sin city in Nevada. Just got a text update from Nygaard, he is OUT, knocked out by his fellow countryman Skjervold, who now has over 60k and doing allright - soon to break down to three tables.

[tikay]

I hope he Finals!

By the way, Tuesday is the last chance fior you guys to catch the "Norweigan" Poker 425, midnight Norway time.

[sig75]

On the flop of -8h-4c Edgar Skjervold bet out $6,600 and Tony G called. The turn came out a , Skjervold checks, Tony G bets $24,600(pot) and Skjervold reraises all in. Tony calls and shows a pair of hole 10's and a straight draw. Skjervold shows 4-4 in the hole for a set of 4's and when the river put another 5 out, he got his full house. Tony G said "That's gonna keep me quiet for a while huh?".
