BCPC PREMIER LEAGUE 1...WEEKLY UPDATE
BOINGBLITZ:
This was only the 2nd 6-handed game so far this Season and only Tony Trippier had previously played one so far but for Steve Bayliff there would be no points as he failed to register on time, despite wearing the required attire of shorts and flip-flops (and a curly black wig ;D ).
That left a match-up of 2 of the top 3 and 3 of the bottom 4 but the man holding up the rest remains Clive Padden. He decided to shove over the top of Brian Yates" re-raise on a flop of :3c: 6c th but with Brian holding :3d: :3h: it was an easy call and Clive was drawing pretty thin with his ac qd and although the js turn gave him outs, the river of qh sealed his fate.
Paul Foy was refusing to let his BB get stolen at all tonight and he took two big pots off Brian before a limped pot saw all 4 go to the flop. The board came kc 4h 4s and it was bet at by Tony and Brian called.
The turn of tc went check-check before Brian made a big overbet on the 4d river which Tony called and flipped over :2h: kh only to see Brian"s :3d: 4c give him quads !
That left Tony short and on the day that he made day 2 of the GUKPT £300 event at Walsall for the BCPC, only to go out just short of the money to APAT's own John Miller, he was to see that this really was not his day when Brian called his pre-flop raise with qh jc and when the board came qc qs 4s Tony was a non-believer and shoved his remaining chips in the pot despite Brian leading out but his td tc got no help and he was out in 4th place.
Paul was playing possibly his best game of the Season while Rob Hewlitt was solid as ever but after losing a decent pot, he tried to squeeze a limped pot by shoving 8s 6s and Paul called with ac 6d and the board was no help to Rob and so we were heads-up.
This would prove to be a monsterous session lasting 205 hands. Both players took a slight lead but then decided to split the $100 prize, just before Paul took a commanding lead.
Brian fought back by getting paul to call a river-shove holding a straight and gradually took the initiative back, shoving 3 times without reply before Paul took a stand with 6h 6c and looked good against Brian"s :3h: :3d: .....
but the Poker Gods were smiling on Brian tonight and he flopped the :3s: and that was enough to give him his 3rd victory of the season and take him back to the top of the Premier League 1 table.
3-3 is the new nuts :-*

Will Young will make his return from holiday next Sunday while leader Brian Yates now sits out from the next 3 games.
Will is well placed with only 4 games played while Clive Padden, Mark Eagles and Steve Redfern all need to make an impression over the next few games if they are to avoid being tailed off.
Steve Bayliff will also be frustrated at his failure to register in time tonight as he now sits out the next 2 games while Paul Foy will need to make his move in the next 3 as he then sits out 3 in a row.
1TRW1:
Well done, Bri. You"re like that train film with Denzel Washington.
scouse3465:
Well done bri. Gutted i missed it, got your text 10 mins after it started (was in car at quarter 2 just before you sent it and got out at 5 past and seen it Typical timing for me lately lol ) ! but too late then lol
WYoung83:
Not to sure when i will be back home, i will try and make it.
BOINGBLITZ:
Didn"t watch last night"s game due to a full screen of tables myself (!) but it was Mark Eagles who made his first cash and got his first win to move himself up into the play-off zone and give himself a real chance of making the live final in June.
1st - MARK EAGLES.....10 PTS + $100
2nd - Steve Bayliff.......7 pts
3rd - Paul Foy.............4 pts
4th - Andy Overton......2 pts
5th - Rob Hewlitt.........1 pt
6th - Aneurin Venables (did not play)
Andy Overton will have been disappointed with his 4th place finish and he is now under pressure with just 2 games left to play and will need a good result in Wednesday"s 9-handed game as he then sits the next 3 out before everyone plays the final game on June 1st.
Rob Hewlitt has also played 8 games and he too could be left hanging on if results go against him while Paul Foy and Aneurin Venables need to make a move soon or they could be out of the reckoning.
Both Tod Wood and Clive Padden have had disappointing seasons but with games in hand, they could yet have a shot at the play-offs with Clive now the only player yet to cash.
Will Young and Tony Trippier are the only players to have scored points in every game they have played and along with Brian Yates, they have all been in the top 3 since week 2.
