Boyles IPO

Infelizmente, devido ao evento GUKPT, perdemos este, teria sido ótimo para jogar, especialmente para o pequeno buy-in, havia um valor fantástico.Mas isso dito, onde há um festival, sempre há excelentes jogos em dinheiro!


E é nisso que eu me concentrei, as mesas estavam cheias de jogadores estrangeiros, principalmente franceses, com alguns holandeses e escandalos para compensar os números.Sentei -me em uma mesa de dinheiro em particular por algumas horas, 2 jovens holandeses, eles ficaram acordados por 3 dias sólidos e estavam recarregando as baterias com Red Bull!Eles certamente não eram o valor na mesa, mas forneceram o entretenimento.É justo dizer que foi a mesa de dinheiro mais divertida em que já sentou.Assim como o evento feminino, eu joguei um dos pequenos eventos laterais, mas infelizmente devido a uma estrutura bastante ruim, foi uma merda do Off e, como eu não recebi as cartas, estava de fora para mimrapidamente.

Gukpt Thanet

Headed to Thanet with Rob, he was playing the main event whilst I was playing the slightly more modest side event. It was a one day NLH with a £100 + £10.50 buy-in. Yes that's right! The reg fee was £10.50!!
The structure wasn't great as is typical for the smaller buy-in English MTT, but it was something to pass the time while Rob played in the main event. I got off to a decent start, managing to stay one step ahead of the shorter stacks and was in even better shape after knocking out Nik Persaud and Jeff Kimber.

Se Betdaq Bubble

Rob & I both played the Betdaq Live Sat in the SE. Rob had won his €400 + €40 ticket in a sat the night before and we bought my ticket off Ian who had also won a ticket in the same sat but was unable to actually play the event.

There were a lot of good players in this sat, so to win 1 of 3 tickets was never going to be easy. My first table featured Donal Norton, Dennis Reyes and Kevin Farelly so it was never really quiet, even early on there were several raised pots preflop. From memory I had very little cards to see a flop with and pathetically managed to blind myself down to around 4k by the break. Great! Just in time for the break time questions . . .
"How are you getting on?"
"About 4"
"40? no way!"
"No, 4, well 4ish "
"Oh"
Like these questions weren't awkward!
