DTD FESSIE ROUND UP
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 ;

5 Fredrik Mikaelsson £1,932
6 Julian Thew £1,380
7 Andrew Oflaherty £1,104

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

2 Ben Ingram £2,163
3 David Noble £1,442

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!!!!!!!!
