Ouch thats Harsh ul Darren Hang in there tho m8 & get them Chips back GL
I'm struggling a bit today, as I never got to bed last night, so may need a mini-power nap at the Dinner-Break.
Man Overboard!
Darren got it in with 2 pair, but Matey Boy rivered a straight, & that's all she wrote.
Darren is off for a little alcoholic sustinence now, I fancy.
It's a pretty big ask not to get it all-in with A-4 on a flop of A-A-4. Cooler-City, imo.
Unlucky.
Gosh from listening to Steve`s interview shows just how tough poker can be!
Very Unlucky Darren WP m8
A few more photos have just gone up on the piccy Blog.
The Interviews we filmed with Darren & Guy at the break after Level 2 are now up, too.
Let's hear it for Atilla, who is working miracles here.
How many levels are played today?
Well done Atilla - really great work! And Tikay!
What was the starting stack?
Yes, 4 & a half Levels are played today, each full Level is 2 hours duration.
The starting stack is 30,000.
We are 10 minutes from the end of Level 3 right noew, & Blinds are 150-300. After that, there is a 90 minute Dinner Break.
Level 4 repeats the 150-300, with the addition of a 25 Running ante.
Play should finish just before Midnight tonight, by my reckoning. (That's 8am UK time).
I hope that the fact that you played the hand so well is of some consolation to you.
Cheers John & Tikay for info
Guy's table broke, but he seems OK at his new Table. I'm very confident he'll be here for Day Two.
One concern is stamina - he is finding it very tough to maintain his concentration for so long, as he's never played Live Poker for such a long spell before.
He's done very well, imo.
We just had a visit from Haysie, who flies home tomorrow. He's Welsh.
End of Level 4 approaches, & Guy, although clearly very tired, seems quite comfy, & is under no pressure.
It's now 10.15pm here (06.15 UK), & we have a 20 minute break, then 1 more hour to play.
Hopefully, we'll get a quick end of play interview with Guy, then Claire will get it uploaded.
Tomorrow - Tuesday, Day 2b, is Dan Day.
11.40pm Vegas (07.40am UK), & play has ENDED for the day.
From what we can see, Guy appears to have about 30,000 - a great effort, & result.
Once the "bagging up" is done, we hope to interview him, & Attila will try to upload that before we give best for the day.
We start again on Tuesday, following Dan.
Many thanks for supporting the boys.
PS - Let's hear it for Guy!
Goodnight fom Attila, & from me.
xx
Very unlucky Darren.
Thanks for the updates.
As for Guy, congratulations on making it through. As they say, you can't win the Main Event on Day 1, so you've done all you needed to do and with a healthy stack to get to work with. Nice one.
Extremely bad luck Darren on the way you went out but superb effort that you should be very proud of!
