An interesting hand early doors between KevB and the current chip leader:

Lawrence Gosney raises 350 and kevB re raised to 1350 and Lawrence calls. Flop is 9s ks 4c. Lawrence checks and Kev bet 2500, Lawrence re raises and Kev pushes. Kev turns over 2 black aces and Lawrence shows 9c 7d. Turn is a 7. Game Over for Mr Bloor :shock:

DTD FESSIE ROUND UP

August 25, 2008

It looked like the main event was going to be a washout, with only 46 players with 2 minutes to go, however Bank Holiday Traffic was accredited as to the reason of the low turnout. This may have been correct as by the end of level 2 there was a creditable 91 runners for the scheduled 4 day event. Although 91 was not a bad number for a weekday afternoon comp, it was clear that this would be a 3 -dayer maximum. I have to say that this ME was extremely well run and the field was excellent, with all the regular UK circuit players. However it seemed to me that a fish was having the run of his life in this one, the eventual winner could not put a foot wrong, suckout city and big stack bully all fell into place with the greatest of timing. The outcome was as follows;

PLACE PLAYER PRIZE
1 Andrew Tuxworth £15,925
2 Paul Murphy £9,555
3 Przemek Rusin £6,370
4 John Sadler £4,095
5 Paul Gourlay £3,185
6 Richard Hawes £2,275
7 Nichiei Hicks £1,820
8 Adam Goulding £1,365
9 Darren Chadwick £910

The £300 had a similar field as most knockoutees insta bought in for this event ;

PLACE PLAYER PRIZE
1 James Buckley £9,660
2 Tony Salmon £5,796
3 Barrie Sherbert £3,864
4 Neil Blatchly £2,484
5 Fredrik Mikaelsson £1,932
6 Julian Thew £1,380
7 Andrew Oflaherty £1,104
8 Jeff Sharpe £828
9 Lars Arne Kapsto Foss £552

The £100 Double Chance saw the field rise into 3 figures with the results as follows;

PLACE PLAYER PRIZE
1 Oneib Saeed £3,605
2 Ben Ingram £2,163
3 David Noble £1,442
4 Neil Robinson £927
5 Raymond Brown £670
6 Will Mitchell £515
7 John Shaw £361
8 Stephen Jennison £258
9 Anon £206
10 Simon Lee £155

The curious thing was the £200 PL Omaha comp however, as at the start there was only 5 runners, the organizers felt it appropriate to cancel this tournament and held a 60+ field for a £30 Scalp tourny.

A few more PLO players came in and on seeing the PLO comp had been cancelled asked for a £200 PLO one hand flip over, winner takes all (I presume suggested by James Dempsey (Royal Flush aka the Flip King))

9 players stumped up the £200 to play this !!!! Including, Trevor Reardon, Simon Nowab, James Dempsey, Rich Offless, Julian Thew, and Lawrence Gosney (I think) amongst others.

Commentated by Simon Trumper this was the most remarkable hand of the night.

From what I saw this is how it played, first they would see a flop and turn 2 cards, the turn would be dealt, and they would expose another card, then the river and they would finally turn their last card over.

Flop Came

4 7 7 rainbow

Trevor Reardon had K 4
Simon Nowab had A 4
RichEO had Q 8

The rest had rags and only these were really involved.

Turn was an 8

Trevor Reardon showed a rag
Simon Nowab showed a 7 (for 7’s over 4’s) Big Cheer
RichEO shows an 8 (for 8’s over 7’s) Bigger Cheer

Simon slumps

River was a K

Trevor shows another king (for kings over) Huge Cheers
Simon says Gimme quads baby doll and turns over his one outer 7 to a roar of laughter
Doesn’t matter what RichEO had as he was drawing dead.

£1800 in the sky rocket for the DTD man Simon Nowab :)

What a hand!!!!!!!!

The Coachman Results

August 23, 2008

The battle in Northwich took place last night, and apparently the beer flowed that much, that everyone is taking a day to recover. I am presuming the night was a great success as always, and the only news so far that i have, is that the hot favourite Tom (Billyboy) Butlin exited first when his aces got cracked by kings ……….. only time will tell, when the mist settles what the actual outcome of this superb bank holiday comp. Just wish I could have made it :( , but then if i had of, i am sure i would still be recovering myself :)

Bearwood Trial

August 13, 2008

OK so i thought I would experiment with a few different games in a competition format, The game itself was 4000 pts + 2000pt lifeline, so a total of 6000pts on a 30 minute clock. The idea is that this is a cheap way to introduce players into dealers choice, therefore the games allowed were all flop games and called on the button these included : Hold’em, Pineapple, Crazy Pineapple, Irish, Omaha and Super Hold’em. Decided to play myself, and let Sarah have a bash at dealing them (purely to see how it played you understand ;) ) Game worked a treat to be honest and sure it will take off on Wednesdays. The Winner was Norman, runner up Alan C, I came a miserable 4th after i called Crazy Pineapple with Q J 10,  flop came 3 Q J (rainbow) chucked my 10 and hit a Queen on the turn, raised, was re-raised and pushed, against Adrian Everton. He turned over his pair of threes and hit his one outer 3 on the river grrrrrrrrrrrrr bye bye me.

Thinking of running a series of games BSOP ( Bearwood Series of Poker) in the near future, watch this space!!

3 players out they decided to chop it for £60k each and play for the title and £35k

James Mitchell exited 3rd and everyone settled down for an epic heads up battle, which was not to be as it lasted one hand. David La Ronde was the recipiant of the unfortunate hand that gave Sam Trickett the Extra £35k and the title of GUKPT champion Luton. Big congratulations to him, and i don’t think it will be the last we hear of him this year, lets just hope he can keep his cool at some of these venues and doesn’t twat anymore doormen ;)

I am sure you will agree that this is one amazing line up, proving the popularity of the GUKPT tour, first prize is expected to be well over £100k as day 1b will probably have a similar amount of runners

56 players made it to day 2 with the chip leader who has over 100k in chips and noteably an online qualifer. The average is 32,000 and Craig Bickerton is just above that, unfortunately UKPL’s Kev Bloor exited mid session. The 56 look like this

August 4, 2008

Entry: £300 Game: Hold Em
Registration: £30 Limit: No Limit
Starting Chips: 10000 Type: Freezeout
Total Entries: 116 Special: Regular
Total Prizepool: £34,800  

 

PLACE PLAYER PRIZE

7 Lee Rawson £1,218
8 Daniel Ward £870
9 Stuart Langford £696
10 Gary Orme £522
11 Philip Clarke £522

 

Heres where it gets interesting, Sunday saw the £200 and £100 FO at DTD, but Stoke had their anniversary £100 FO with £2000 added. As I work at DTD the chances of me being able to play were very slim, however the 5 O’clock £200 Freezeout only attracted a very disappointing 33 runners. Result:

Entry: £200 Game: Hold Em
Registration: £20 Limit: No Limit
Starting Chips: 7500 Type: Freezeout
Total Entries: 33 Special: Regular
Total Prizepool: £6,600  

 

PLACE PLAYER PRIZE
1 Habib Chatoo £2,970
2 Simon Jude £1,782
3 Sadikiah Tapper £1,188
4 Peter Conduit £660

 

As this event was very quiet, a colleague and myself zipped over to Stoke Circus to partake in the added value tournie, in the car we chatted about a 10% saver. Deal done :)

The turnout was fantastic for this tournament which attracted about 160 players, so a total prizepool of £18,000. I also had another 10% with a good friend. I played the worst poker of my life, confirming my dislike for hold’em btw, and I was out before the first break. However my two 10%’s were doing great, and both in with 17 players left…….15 got paid i believe (I was busy in the cash games :) ). My first 10% got eliminated in 16th place :( . But Joe Wrigley, a DTD colleague, was playing out of his skin. He reached the final as the second shorstack. To everyone’s surprise the chip daddy, suggested that everyone should chop for £1000 each and play for the rest 1st 2nd and 3rd. My Jockey bit his hand off and then knuckled down to accrue some chips (and doing a fine job!!!) 6 players out the chip daddy suggested chopping it for £2000 for the top 5 and £1900 for the short stack. Joe at this stage wanted to play on, but felt that because he was offered such a good deal at the start, it would be rude not to, even though he was second chip leader. Deal done, they then proceeded to do the all-in fest for the trophy, of which an out of towner won. But many congratulation go to Bionic Bill from UKPokerlife who also recieved £2000 after having a long break from poker.

So while the atmosphere was buzzing in Stoke, the £100 at DTD got an even more disappointing 59 runners. Result:

Entry: £100 Game: Hold Em
Registration: £10 Limit: No Limit
Starting Chips: 5000 Type: Freezeout
Total Entries: 59 Special: Regular
Total Prizepool: £5,900  

 

PLACE PLAYER PRIZE
1 Pat Kelley £2,183
2 Andy Coughlan £1,357
3 Jennifer Mason £885
4 Daniel Ball £531
5 David Mundle £413
6 Paul Jackson £295
7 Andrew Murphy £236

 

I will post Stoke Stanleys results as soon as they are recieved, however the big winner was Stanleys Stoke, that was buzzing, like it was in the old days. The reason is undoubtedly the £2000 added, but if you take the £10 reg fee out they put on the show adding only £400!!! For the custom it brought in and the atmosphere, it is something that should be seriously considered as a regular event. IT WOULD DEFINATELY GET THE RUNNERS!!!

Well done Andy! aka Blazing Saddler

But the biggest congratulations must go to the winner of the main event, Mick McCool who is smashing the UK final tables in these kind of events, for six!! The festival in the main was attended very well, although 45 runners for the main event is a bit disappointing and on a par with DTD’s main event just held, in which they got 79 runners for a £750 ME (Mick McCool was 7th in that btw for £2,370)

Another strange attendee at Broadway, was James Browning, I say this because, as i was watching the updates, a letter came through my door telling me (as a shareholder) that the company he had founded PokerPoka ltd had just gone tits up!

Summary of Virgin Poker Festival

June 30, 2008

This weekend saw the 3rd Virgin Festival, which comprises of Poker, Wii Bowling, and lots of alcohol.

259 runners qualified online for the Main Event Live tournament, held at Dusk Till Dawn in Nottingham, 10,000pts 30 min clock 2 day event. Other events included a scalps tournament, an STT’d qualification MTT, DTD’s regular £50 FO which Virgin added 50,000 air miles for the winner. Virgin also put bounties on a couple of heads, to include a Hot Air Balloon trip, Rally Driving Days etc.

The Main Event was won by PuntersLounge member  Stephen “MadDuke” Docherty aka Scaramoosh on Virgin.

The 50,000 Air miles and the £50 FO winner was blondepoker member Douglas “Jizzemm”Lindsay.

The STT Challenge was won by Garry Wilson, and the Terminator comp was won by Dafydd Jones.

The forum team event was won by EatMyStack, however yet again UKPL wasn’t invited to play the team event, even with our record at team events, maybe it is designed to give others a chance.

UKPL did have a little success however with 2 members Jon Titley (JonT) and Julie Holloway (Jools) getting deep in the main event, despite entering day 2 both short stacked.

Jools (who gained entry via the Golden Ticket route) came a respectable 10th place for £465

And JonT played out of his skin and was unlucky to finish 7th for £1,160

UKpokerinfo salutes you both!!!

 

Virgin also announced the date and Venue for their 4th Festival, somewhat controversially it will be held at Loose Cannons, in London on 28th 29th September. (at exactly the same time as the WSOPE), numbers won’t be as high as at DTD (due to size of venue) looking at a cap of 210 players.

Qualification for this event has already begun on some forums.
