Amsterdam Masterclassics - DAY 2 - Live Update (Interactive)
Djinn:
Having a good day: Johan Storakers - starting today with around 30k and enjoying around 80k at the moment. One large pot won was a three-way-er with short stack Danny Ryan moving in for 8,900, called by a French player just when Storakers had :as: ac... he promptly shoved over the top for 25k and received a call with tc td. Ryan"s ah qh looked in bad shape - and it was - he busted and Johan shot up in chips.
Having a bad day: Jerome Bradpiece, who played badly (I paraphrase) today, losing his chips in two dodgy hands. Firstly, he called a Jan Sjavik raise (there are lots of those) in the big blind with 8c 5d ("I wasn"t having that any more") and seeing a flop:
ah jd 8s. Check-check.
Turn: 6h Jerome checked again and got another check behind.
River: 8h Jerome bet out 2k, and Jan Sjavik quickly raised another 4k. Jerome thought it through carefully - he didn"t have a house; why check behind twice...run into backdoor flush draw...? "Having put him on the hand I call anyway," and sure enough he was facing kh qh.
So he"d dropped to 7k, and it was announced that his table was about to be broken. An aggressive player raised to 1,200 on the last hand, called by Jan Sjavik. Jerome decided that now was the perfect time to make the squeeze with K-9, and while the first guy passed, Sjavik called with A-K and that was that. I like the fact that he makes no excuses about his play - you"d be surprised how many people have never told me a story where they"re the villain or the donkey, or where their superlative ability hasn"t run into the brick wall of either someone else"s inability to pass a hand or lucky lucky outdraw. Refreshing.

Just before the break I saw Jan Sjavik take some chips off of this young lady whom we mentioned in yesterday"s update. Her name is still unknown, I"m afraid, owing to the seat she"s currently occupying being listed as empty on the seating plan. Anyway, there was a flurry of preflop raising, and then Jan checked the 5d 6c :2h: flop. Lady bet 5k; Jan called.
Turn - 6d - check check
River - 9c
Jan bets 10k and Lady passes. She has about 30k left.

Don"t suppose you have a photo, or an incredibly good description? What little information exists is for the sole use of the TV company and is not being shared with the press. Sigh.

On rollercoaster ride - Mike Tse
He started today on 36k, which he managed to turn into over 50k without showing a hand. He somehow drifted back under the 50k mark, until a new player was moved to his table. He three-bet the new player with pocket Tens and the guy folded, thus donating about 18k to the Tse stack. He"s now on around 60k, and looks a little manic. Here"s a photo from a non-manic moment a little while ago.

Actually, Jen has just pointed out to me that the easiest way to identify him will be for me to get a photo of whoever"s in the seat with his name on it on the seating plan and get you to identify that photo one way or the other. Duhhh. Ok, photo on its way...
