EPT London - Sky people

FCHD

Ryan made it through Day 1A in 45th of the 105 qualifiers with a slightly smaller than average stack of 59.100. Can't see Julian in the list of qualifiers, but then I couldn't see him in the list of starters either.

Day 1b today

FlashFlush

Great to see Ryan has come through and is now recognised face on the UK circuit and not just on Skypoker! Keep it up mate.

Yeah, well done Ryan - hopefully you can run deep. Remember: flush beats a straight

Hi K8,

Ryan Spittles, "scotty77".

GELDY

n1 ryan - saving the run good for when it counts

afaik yoyo is playing 1b ie today

FCHD

Yep. Julian is playing Day 1B, a star-studded field if ever I saw one.

From the British contingent alone, Yoyo is joined by Chris Brammer, Vicky Coren, Sam Grafton, David Ulliott, Chris Moorman, Toby Lewis, Neil Channing, Liv Boeree, Martins Adeniya, Barny Boatman, Stephen Chidwick,
David Vamplew, Nik Persaud and James Dempsey

From outside this country, Jesse Sylvia, Russell Thomas, Vanessa Selbst, Joe Cada, Barry Greenstein, Michael Mizrachi, Michiel Brummelhuis, Jason Mercier, Chris Moneymaker, Jackie Glazier, Marcel Luske, John Juanda, Elky, Gaelle Baumann, Daniel Negreanu, Dario Minieri and Sylvain Loosli - so two WSOP ME champions plus two of this year's November Nine. The winner of the High Roller event at the festival. Martin Finger was also in the field but he has been busted

Last update I've seen of our hero was that he was up to 36K from starting Stack of 30K but as with nirmal on these "live" updates that could be hours behind.

FCHD

Just noticed David Benefield's name there too, so that's three of this year's November Nine playing today

Still no more news on Julian

The_Don90

Technically not a sky player but has played on Sky my uncle Willie, and loyal TKP member qualified via a live sat after busting the UKIPT. 

He was sat on Jake Cody's table from which i've seen on twitter was deemed a table of death. Can't remember who was all on it off hand but i could find out, although giant posted this tweet on willie's wall. 

Vladimir Geshkenbein @PKR_Beyn 3m
Playing the EPT Main Event.. toughest starting table ever. Jake cody, Sorel Mizzi and Jamie Roberts & some other pro's 

So i would like to congradulate him again. (he made day 2 with 51,500)

Also well done to Ryan and anyother Sky guys

FCHD

Julian had chipped up to 55K as of the last update, about half an hour ago

FCHD

Unofficially, Julian has ended day 1 with 61,800 - looks like a reasonably steady progression all day. None of this yoyo stuff!

The_Don90

yoyo

yes got thru with the same stack as ryan, i'd said i'd be happy with 60 in the bag so no complaints

will stick a couple of hands/observations up in my diary

tx for the rail!

FCHD

Early Day 2 eliminations include Nik Persaud. Luke Schwarz, Liv Boeree, Barny Boatman, Michael Mizrachi and the player I beleive to be The Don90's uncle.

No news on Ryan or Julian yet.

FCHD

Ryan unfortunately bust according to his twitter account

GREGHOGG

Yoyo just been shown on the stream (complete with sky patch)

FCHD

Julian now up to 130K after eliminating Noah Boeken, slightly above average

FCHD

Just seen that Carlo is also still in, and playing on the secondary feature table. He needs a double up fairly sharpish though as he is on about 61K.

Last level of the day, 1200/2400/300ante

FCHD

Man Down! - Thewy busted right near the end of the night.

The live stream commentators having a bit of fun with Carlo - remarking he doesn't have the "rich mahogany veneer" that he ususally has! He baaged up just over 100K, about two-thirds of the average at the end of Day 2.

107 left, 87 get paid.

Hi FCHD - these Updates are much appreciated by many of us, thanks.

FCHD

Thanks Tikay, it can be tricky sometimes to do posts like these without either a) referring too much to other sites and b) maintining the copyright of content on other sites. Hence no hand descriptions or anything, just bare chip count updates.

Very much so, but you walk that fine line with great skill & tact, traits which very few possess.
 
Communities & Forums are divided into givers & takers.

Some go to much effort to make stuff fresh, interesting, & original - the givers. Some just come for a chunter, & to mock others. The takers.

Each, of course, have exactly the same right to be here.

I have a weird way of trying to gauge my affection or respect for Forum Posters.

"Would I invite them round for Tea, on Sunday"?

Problem is, I doubt any would accept.....

I do think this Community has improved markedly, as to mood & tone, in the last few weeks. A pleasure to peruse, of late.     

yoyo

yes afraid i went out right at the end of the day raise/called off 20bb w JJ v mike watsons AQ...gonna update my diary shortly, gd to see carlo still in,

debating whether to hit edinburgh tomorrow for the gps...

FCHD

65 left, Carlo still in. Last chip count was 110K, so pretty short stacked, but that hasn't been updated for ages.

Current payout level is just over £10 grand.

a00rock

Well into the money then hope Carlo does well and thanks FCHD for the updates.

FCHD

Bad news I'm afraid, Carlo was short-stacked just before the last break of the day, went all in aith A2 and got called by AQ, both players hit their kicker and Carlo hit the rail.
