BCPC PREMIER LEAGUE 1...WEEKLY UPDATE
WYoung83:
In before 3rd.
BOINGBLITZ:
For the final week of the first ever BCPC Premier League, all players were playing together so it was our first multi-table game and everyone involved still had a shot at the live Play-Offs and Final in July.
Aneurin Venables failed to register and so he finished bottom of the table and Andy Overton failed to show until 10 minutes after kick-off but it was Clive Padden whose season ended quickly when his ts tc were busted by Tod Wood and his :as: qh when the ad1 flopped to send Clive out in 11th place.
We were now 1 elimination away from moving to the Final Table and that didn"t take long when Paul Foy holding
:as: js got into a raising war with Tony Trippier with kd jh and the jc was no help to Tony who left us in 10th place and now had to hope that Paul didn"t win, with Rob Hewlitt 4th or better as that would eliminate Tony from the Play-Offs.
Tony"s elimination also assured Andy Overton of at least a place in the Play-Offs and he got unlucky not to double-up when both he and Rob Hewlitt held A-K but the next elimination was a sick one.
Tod Wood raised UTG with kh jd but a short-stacked Mark Eagles shoved with ac kd pricing Tod in for a crying call. When the flop came ks tc :as: you just KNEW what was going to happen....and on the turn, there was the
expected qd and Mark was out in 9th and out of BCPC Premier League 1 also.
Tod and Paul were becoming the ones to watch tonight and so when Steve Redfern raised to 300 with ac kh Paul made the call. The flop was :as: :3s: 5c and Paul checked, Steve bet and Paul called.
The turn brought the 6h and Paul checked again, Steve bet almost his whole stack, Paul shoved and Steve had to call but he was well behind to Paul"s monsterous 4c 7c and with the :2d: river no help to Steve, he left in 8th place to sweat on the security of his place in the top 4.
The very next hand we saw Rob Hewlitt out in 7th when he shoved ks 9c and Will Young made the call with 5c 5d and the board bricked, putting Tony Trippier into the play-offs and giving more hope to Paul Foy of joining him.
Will came close to handing Brian the Title when he shoved 9c 8h on a 8c td js flop into Paul"s jc th but the 8d on the turn saved Will and left Paul bemoaning his luck in this League yet again.
Andy Overton has endured a nightmare run in this League over the past few games, being unable to build a stack and when he shoved his shortstack with ac 5c he ran into Brian"s ad ah and was out in 6th and finished 6th in the table also.
That was the start of a card-rush for Brian. He raised UTG with js jc and got Will to shove his :as: jh and when the board was no help to Will, his exit made Brian the BCPC Premier League 1 League Champion.
ac ad1 quickly followed as Scouse Bayliff shoved with kc 8d and that exit in 4th put Steve Redfern and Tod Wood into the play-offs and secured a play-off spot for Paul Foy at the expense of Rob Hewlitt.
The final 3 played out a Titanic struggle which, considering there was little now to play for, was a credit to the players involved. Tod, who has been Paul"s Nemesis throughout this Season, shoved ks th and Paul called with ad1 :2s:
and the flop put Tod ahead 7s :3d: td . The turn 4s was no help but the ac river kept Paul alive to leave Tod very low.
He did double up against both players to move to around 6000 chips but when Brian raised his button with :as: 7h
Tod shoved with ad qs and Paul flat-called behind with ah 8h and so Brian folded (FLABbed !!).
The flop was an incredible 5h 6h kh and so Tod was out in 3rd place tonight and also ousted Steve Redfern to finish 3rd overall in the League too.
Heads-Up and Paul and Brian had a great rollercoaster battle which Paul began with a big chip lead but the game went too-and-fro throughout.
Here are the main ones....
Bri ah :2d: shoves... Paul calls 9h 9c board qd 5d jd 8d ks ...and Bri is back in it !!
Bri ac th shoves...Paul calls :as: jd board no help...and Paul has lead again.
Bri :as: qd shoves...Paul calls jd kh board 8d qs ts 8c jc and Bri takes big lead back
Bri ah 4c shoves...Paul has to call qs td board 8c 8s 9h 9d kc ...and Bri takes down his 4th win of the season while Paul scrapes into the Play-Offs on the final game.
