Rob Yong & A N Other just clashed, Mr Other seemingly a bit irked by the serial raising from all positions by Rob Yong. Mr Other re-popped it, & Rob made the call.
Flop = A-2-3, rainbow.
Mr Other bets, Rob stares at him for fully 3 minutes, then flats.
Turn, 7d, so A-2-3-7, two diamonds.
Mr Other quickly (suspiciously so, I thought) bets 5k into about 8k now.
Rob asks for a count, then piles his chips into one big stack, & makes ready to shove all-in, all the while staring down Mr Other, to get a reaction.
He so nearly shoves, then mucks, declaring "you got me, I have no hand".
Mr Other quietly smiles, & shows the absolute nuts. K-J of clubs, that is.
Right, I'll go get a Dan-count.
No food for me today, I'm afraid, the Diet goes on!
Mystery of the Rob Yong hand resolved - Rob Yong had (allegedly) - "same hand" - K-J! Air v air, jeez, these boys scare me.
Dan has 21,800, pretty much unchanged. His Table has got a bit ugly, with Mr Bradshaw giving it the speech play, & Sharky biting. (See what I did there?).
To Dan's immediate left, is a guy called Mick McCool, who has a seriously laggy game. Dan's seat & Table are not soft now, trust me. However, his Table is the next to break, so I think he'll sit quietly until it does, then re-appraise things.
Good news from Mick McCool for those who know him, "Wallace", his adored black labrador, who has been very ill for a long time, is much better.
Bad news, though, for Wick Twigg, who's seat is now vacant. Whoops, but it was only £1,00. Plus £70 juice.
And more Rob Yong news. Sorry, but he's in every hand. (And owns Eastwood Town FC & DTD). He has doubled up with 8-10 of hearts v Aces. He called a Raise (fancy that), it came 7-9-Q, 2 hearts. MBN. The 6 turned, Rob shoved & Aces man snap-called! He has 27,000 now.
5 minutes remain in level 3, & I'm off for a bit of fresh air, back in 4 minutes.
Wow just how deep can a deep stack get if a deepstack cud get deeper!!!
Get Dan a double JD and coke to keep him awake!
Gl to the man, bring it back to Donny!!!
The location of the Casino - which is quite splendid, & I recommend you visit - is inside - underneath, actually - The Ricoh Stadium, home of Coventry City FC. Jimmy Hill is - or was - the Manager here.
Level 4 has just begun, Blinds are now 100-200, & amazingly, Running Antes have kicked in, at 25 per hand.
128 players remain, ave stack is 16,600. 13 Tables remain.
The WINNER gets £45,000, & money goes down to 13th, who gets £1,400.
This is a THREE Day Comp, & they play NINE Levels today. A late night is in prospect for us all, methinks & mehopes.
Thanks for the updates, Tikay, but get some food or you'll be waaasting awaaay.
Just spotted Nick Wealthall, sat next to Hi Diddly Hi Flanders.
Meanwhile, news of a DAN HAND.......
It's THREE way, & Dan turned a straight, BUT it flushed up, 3 hearts now. He bet out, but a Raise & and then re-raise behind, forced Dan to let go, forsaking 4k in the process.
The raiser behind Dan let go, & Mr Shover shows Q-Q! Though he did have the Q of hearts.
Ugh, tricky spot that.
So, he must have about 17k now, after his first setback. I think it's fine to let go there, we don't need to gamble yet, do we?
Dan - Runner Dan, not Total Player Dan - has just been to Tescos, & fetched me a 300g pack of grapes, (180 calories), a 200g pack of fresh pineapple, (90 cals) & a 120g pck of cooked ham slices, (148 cals). There you go, a meal to last all day, it tasted good, & at no extra cost, a night of unbridled flatulence. A bargain at £7.
Bambos is OUT.
Sure are.
J P Kelly - 19,000.
Will Brewin, 26,000.
Oh, & just bumped into Sky Poker-er-er Mike1975. He's gonna play the £100 tonight. He was agog, eyeing up all the Poker Big Names.
Just spotted Dave Colclough, Steve Jelenik, Tim Blake, Irena Lippa, Jake cody, & Matt "Pez" Perrins.
HOT field this.
Now I have the job of reminding you - PIE
;-)
In Response to Re: Dan Brown, TOTAL PLAYER, Part 2. GUKPT Coventry Live Update.:
I went to check Chris's stack, & he was walking across the casino, "How many Chris?" I asked innocently. Well, if looks could kill!
"You taking the ******* ****?" he spits back.
Here's the horrible coup.
He has 10-10, pops it up, & a geezer flats.
Flop 10 (!), 9-7.
Bet, call.
Turn, 6.
Bet, call.
What river do we NOT want here?
Yup, the 8, to complete the Board Straight & counterfeit Chris's top set.
Chris shoves, as he thinks Matey Boy is also playing the Board, & he wants to rep the J, for the higher straight.
Matey boy snaps. With J-Q.
So Chris is OUTO.
That, Mr Dogg, is shocking bokkage.
HI Mackha, unfort I cant be at Coventry this w/e. However im avidly following tk's updates.
For reference, Ed, as Dan's "Total Player" Mentor, is on 10% of Dan's winnings here, in SPT Glasgow, & the Vegas Main Event. Quite right too, too.
We are now at the end of Level 4, &, inexplicbly, there is a 15 minute break. Then,they return, play ONE Level, & then take a 1 hour dinner-break. Don't ask!
However, during this 15 minute break, there will be a full chip count, so I'll have some counts for you when they return.
Right, Posh 'Ling has clicked her fingers, & I need to go Interview Chubby Brown. OK 'Ling, I am on the way!
thanks for all the updates tikay
hoggers
Thought you might be watching in some way. 45,000 reasons for you to be interested!
Just chatted with Dan, he's cool, but has yet to get the feel of his new Table. I'll go clock it in a bit, & see if I recognize any faces.
Of the 142 runners, 117 remain, the ave stack is 18,300, & the Blinds will be 150/300/25.
Anyone wanna predict how many will be left at the end of this Level?
This Level will end at 7.45pm, following which there will be a 1 hour dinner-break, followed by 4 more Levels. So we draw stumps at about 1am. We hope.
Hard taskmaster is Posh 'Ling. The interview List for the dinner break includes Matt Pez Perrins, Jake Cody, Craig McCorkell, Dave Colclough, Rob Yong, Simon Trumper, and Pippa Flanders.
Pippa, by the way, is OUTO.
Rob Yong is now over 35,000.
Dan is unchanged on 17,000.
The cry of "lost one, seat HERE" is starting to be heard with increasing frequency. Which is bad, or good, depending where you sit. Or stand.
In Response to Re: Dan Brown, TOTAL PLAYER, Part 2. GUKPT Coventry Live Update.: Id watch anyway, however.......
So the Monday morning after the SPT Glasgow and my phone rings , "HI Ed its Dan here , Ive got some wages for you, would you like bank transfer or inter-account transfer. "?
Quality fella imho.
Keep it going Dan, unlucky with the str8 hand but he knows there is no need to gamble early
Say good luck to Will as well Tikay - I know this thread is for dan mostly but it is nice to have Will mentioned also - a nice guy and a great player - Im hoping for a Dan and Will 1-2 finish!!
Dan is unchanged on circa 17,000. I don't immediately recognize anyone at his Table.
Just seen Pete Charalambous, & I can hear - very well - Andy Bradshaw, his voice drowning even Mick Mccool's machine-gun laughter. Even Mad Turk is quite by comparision with Andy.
'Ling has just gone to check-in to her Hotel. I'm told the rooms - the hotel is part of the stadium Complex - are gorgeous. In fact, on one side, the Hotel windows overlook the fotball pitch, which sounds prertty neat.
I decided to swerve booking a Hotel room, & drive home after play finishes - it's only an hour - in case Attila The Hen shouts at me for spending her money. And she would, believe me.
Tasking of which, I just nearly had a heart attack, as Attila rung up, & I assumed we were in trouble.
But she just wanted me to let you guys know that the footage that 'Ling is shooting of Dan, this weekend, will be up on Channel 865 next week.
