Some break-time chip counts for you:

Paulie 33k
Michelle G. 41k
Steve R. 43k

We"ve lost Jon MW on a very rare bluff. He drawing to the straight, but the flush card hits the river. His opponent checks, so Jon tries to represent with a sizeable bet. Unfortunately, his opponent calls with 2 pair and sends him to the rail.
Title: Re: Genting UK Amateur Championship - Live Update
Post by: Matt D on December 01, 2012, 19:49:41 PM
Adam Sharples out. Limped 77 with a 7.5k stack (blinds 150/300). Couple more limp. Button raises to 1.3k.

Steve Harrison calls 1.3k. Adam shoves all in. Button calls with A s Qs.

Everyone else folds.

First card out is an Ace, and Adam is headed to play Stud.

Chip Leader, Dan Field(s of chips), who is an ex-dealer at this here casino and playing his first ever poker tournament (according to him, but a load of rubbish according to a few others), has just joined the feature table.

So tune in there in about 20 minutes time to see if he can continue to run over all he encounters. Will John Murray stand for it?!

Action on table 3.

Gareth Preston shoves aipf for 40k from mid position. Paulie calls from small blind and flips 99.

Gareth shows KK.

The flop brings the 9! and Paulie doubles up, busting Gareth in the process.

In other news, Nish Hindocha on the same table is also out (in an earlier hand, no details).

Pete shows 67o. Tom K2s.

Tom's hand holds, hitting the 2 along the way, and we lose Pete.

No worries - its frustrating for you too I"m sure!  

I"m on the rail for Ian Szerlowski and Ross Hibbert, so any updates on those two would be appreciated.  What blind level are we at and what"s the chip avg please?


Ian has 150k, Ross 190k.

Blinds are 4k/8k/800. We"ve 14 players left, and the average stack is 167k, though this is being skewed by a couple of monster stacks.

A monster pot develops between Ian Szerlowski and Daniel Field.

Dan raises to 20k. Ian re-pops it to 50k, and Dan shoves for hundreds of thousands.

Ian doesn"t have to think long, insta-calling for his tournament life with.....

A s Ac

Daniel sheepishly flips KTo.

The board brigns

7s Ks Qs

7c 2c

and Ian scoops a 382k pot. Daniel is down to approx. 180k.

Gerald Morrison open shoves for his short stack.

It folds round to Mark Donnelly in the Big Blind who insta calls.

George Downie raises to 30k. Carl Pilgrim shoves over the top for 54k aipf.

George calls and shows AJ. Carl has AQ.

AQ holds, hitting a Queen on the river for good measure.

Carl doubles up!

At the same time on the feature table Ben Russell doubles up thru Paulie D. 99 vs AQ. 99 holds, and Ben is up to 260k.

Pat shoves all in from small blind with a small stack (40k) and is called by Dan Field on big blind.

Pat: 55

Dan: Q9o.

The flop brings the Q Dan needs, and Pat leaves us in 11th place.

We are now down to 10 players and the Final Table bubble!

Another blind on blind encounter involving Dan Field.

Dan shoves all in for 200k+ from sb. He is called by the AQo of George Downie.

George flops the Ace which is enough to scoop the pot come the river.

George up to close to 400k. Dan down to less than 30k.
Title: Re: Genting UK Amateur Championship - Live Update
Post by: Matt D on December 02, 2012, 17:19:54 PM
Dan on the big blind with 10k of his 19k stack in the middle already, is put all-in by the button of Ian S.

Dan calls blind.

Ian flips AQo.

Dan shows T4o.

The flop brings the Queen, and there are no miracle cards for Dan, meaning he leaves us in 10th place.

FINAL!!

Ross is allin UTG

Ian UTG+1 flat calls for about a third of his stack

Round to Ant on the button who dwells and eventually folds.

Mark in the Small Blind declares allin

It"s another 340k for Ian to make the call, which is roughly his remaining stack


Eventually, Ian folds.

Mark has AK

Ross has A6

Board comes T 7 K   6   J


And for those that missed the feed, Ian folded QQ, and on the button, Ant folded JJ

Paulie raises utg to 45k. Folds round to Ian in bb who re-pops it to 110k. Paul shoves all in. Ian dwells for a while and makes the call with AQ.

Paulie flips AK.

The board plays out K 6 2 2 2

Paulie up to 600k-ish. Ian down to 40k-ish.

--

The very next hand and Ian shoves his remaining stack in. Paulie calls him with Ah Tc.

The board gives us Qd A s 9d 3s 7d

and we lose Ian in 8th for £320.
Title: Re: Genting UK Amateur Championship - Live Update

Folding round to Carl on the button, he shoves for 103k

George in the small blind declares all-in

Ant in the big blind dwells and decides to fold


Carl - A4

George - A5

Board J 8 8   6   4


Double up for Carl

Ant folded AJ and was stood up with a puzzled look on his face



A few hands later, George and Ben get it allin preflop.

George has KK

Ben has JJ


Board comes 2 7 6   J   T


And we lose George Downie in 7th place for £430

A big hand between Anthony Williams and Tom Clark.

Tom makes a standard utg raise. Anthony on small blind shoves all in for 144k more.

Tom dwells, counts out, thinks.... and finally calls.

Anthony shows A s Js, Tom shows Qd Jd.

9c 5c 10s 9s 4s

and Anthony doubles up.


Blinds are currently 10k/20k with 2k ante. 6 players remain. Average stack is 400k+

Huge hand alert!

Tom Clark raises to 47k utg.

Next to act Ben Russell repops to 100k-ish.

Tom shoves all in for 390k more.

There are scorch marks on the felt as Ben shoves his stack across the felt to call.

Tom tables Qh 9h

Ben shows Kh Kd

7h Ks 3c 4s 4d

and Ben takes a 900k+ pot putting him in to the chip lead.

Gutted Ian didn"t run further but great showing fella.

Thinking I would like a Carl B2B here but plenty of heroes would be popular winners if he doesn"t.

Think this is mark"s 4th FT (did he bubble FT in ireland in S1) from less than 10 events competed in. Awesome record.



It is indeed Mark"s 4th FT*. It is also Ant"s 4th.*

The full details can be found here http://www.apat.com/forum/index.php?topic=9754.0 (http://www.apat.com/forum/index.php?topic=9754.0)

Finally got to sit down after a day of advance cooking for Christmas.

Loving the live stream with hole cards and looking forward to sitting with these guys at a future APAT event.

2 many good guys to choose a winner from but my top 3 have to be:

Ant - all round nice guy and modest about his game

Ben - sat with him all day yesterday and gave me a memorable image of his ex-wifes zombie fetish

Tom - "cos he"s Scottish

Round to Ant on the button who dwells and eventually folds.


You can keep that as a template for hands Ant is involved in and just change it the odd time he doesn"t fold to save typing it each time.

Paulie raises to 110k on the button with A5s. Carl flats.

Flop comes: KQ6

Carl checks.

Paulie pushes for 200k more. Carl snap calls with KQ for 2 pair.

Paulie flips A5. The KQ remains good, and Paulie finishes in 3rd place for his 3rd Bronze Medal. But, also £1000 of hard cold cash!

We are now heads up!

Rough stacks are:

Carl = 1.6m
Ben = 800k

And we have some action... It was all a bit hectic here, so excuse the lack of detail, but the tale goes something like this:

One player bets, the other raises, the other 4-bets him back. The other shoves. The other one calls!!...

So... who has what?...

Ben has.... A5..

and

Carl has..... KK...


The board stays safe for Carl, and he takes... All The Chips!!

Special thanks to all the railers (especially Steve Roderick) who encouraged me throughout a very long Day 2.

Obviously 3rd was not the result I was after, but am pleased that if I was going to donk off (and I did) it could be to Carl.

Great result for him and I"m realy pleased to have taken part and gone so deep. I"ll miss that gold medal though...damn it!

Back home to the snow in Glasgow after an awesome weekend with awesome people. Gutted for Tom after playing 3 days of solid poker and getting so close but delighted for Carl on an amazing win. Well done bud, make mine a double  ;)

Huge congrats also to the Scotland B Team who stormed through the points in the team event to win their well deserved Golds, Take a bow Davie, Chris, Naz, Shug & Tom. Loved every minute of the trip with them and my Scotland A team mates Paul "Blackflash Style" Gupta, Jo, Mary & Gordon. Cheers for including me in another superb team event.

To all the regs and the new faces I met over the weekend, cheers to one and all for making it so enjoyable and for suffering my blue moustache (not purple Des) ;D. Same to the brilliant staff of Stoke Genting for looking after us and to Des, Leigh & Matt for another huge APAT success.

APAT = Best community on the planet, end of!!!!

Definately be back next time

 Just so there is no confusion, there was the Scottish event played in between Carl"s two victories.  It"s very much a back to back win for Carl, and the second player to ever win two National gold"s, and the first to do it in the same season.

Not quite an APAT back to back, but I don"t think he will care at all  ;D

Congrats to all the cashers and especially to the medallists, but most importantly, a massive congratulations to Emma, for sitting through another deep run from Carl. She is amazing !!!!!!!

Wow I"m totally speechless for a change!!..

Ermmmm what can I say? Believe me I am totally amazed that I was able to win one but two is unthinkable.

I have so many people to thank for their support both at Stoke  on the forum, so will post blog refresher tommorow in more depth. So many kind words is humbling especially all those who still tolerate my awesome jokes  ;D.

Congrats to all those who cashed.. Unlucky Tom who is my nemesis whos aggressive play scares the poop out of me, 5th was strong finish well played sir.. Also Ian and Ant who played a blinder, I owe Ant a drink for his AJ BB fold, I was a gonna if George had not of isolated phew!!.. I know Paulie wanted that gold medal bad.. But I"m sure his great play will be rewarded soon was just unlucky to be sat next to a Luckbox card rack.. Enjoy the cash and win big in Vegas sir..
Congrats to Ben for silver I know he was a little disappointed with his short HU battle, but a silver Medal and tasty payday soon soften the blow I"m sure.

Thanks to APAT Des, Leigh, Matt another outstanding weekend.. Thanks to Genting and the staff for looking after me dealers who where fantastic as always, the added value series seat aswell gonna have a busy year next year by the looks  :).

And a special thankyou to the smashing Nellie and her lovely daughter Michelle, Emma was entertained thoroughly with the Mexico story lmao, my jaw is still hurting.. Also a thankyou to,Paul and Chris who understand that my chip stacking technique is somewhat to be desired! And where there to lend a helping hand.. THANKYOU ALL xx

You can definitely afford to take you lovely lady Emma away for a weekend or something now. Between poker and reading your facebook jokes I am sure she must need a holiday :-)

Despite being rather jetlagged, thoroughly knackered, and "out of it" for long periods of the weekend, I have to say I enjoyed this event a lot :) It was great to see Carl win another event - he"s won 100% of the events he"s played that I"ve been updating I think!...  And as Carl didn"t play Scotland, this does count as back-to-back in my book :)

Loved the streaming aspect of the event too. Definitely added a lot of fun to the proceedings, and made reporting on the hands very interesting from an Updater"s point of view :)

Finally a big thanks to the managers, TD, dealers, valets at Stoke, who made us all very welcome, and ran the whole tourney excellently. I"d definitely vote it as a place we return to next season.

The other guy has a name, shame no one could be bothered to find out what it was, think people who make the effort to play in lots of apat events deserve better than this.

Apologies. I was updating the main event, and asked the 3 who approached the update desk to tell me of their finishing places (Darren, Anuerin, and Sharon) how many were paid, and who the 4th placed finisher was. Unfortunately none of them knew, so I assumed the player was a non-APAT member and most likely a casino local, so opted for "the other guy".

In retrospect, not a great choice of words, but absolutely no offence intended.

Hate it when people berate the very small team of volunteers that give up their time to provide updates and administration for these events.  It"s a difficult and thankless task as it is.

TBF i would rather be "the other guy"

I have been called everything from an alcoholic to a cock by the APAT updaters over the years  :P :P :D

Sorry this happened Chris - if this was you, particularly as we spoke a little earlier in the day!  Matt's explained how it happened and it"s a rare anomoly indeed, but our apologies nonetheless.

Regards,

Des.

To expand on Matt's point, quite a lot of effort was made at the time in the sense that everybody involved in the conversation was asked. The 4th place finisher was described to all, the seat number pointed out, the fact that he was also with a couple of familiar faces railing etc. The phrase "the other guy" just came up in that conversation and seemed amusing at the time when the player still could not be identified.

I understand why the term may prevoke a reaction, but a slightly harsh reaction imho

sorry i think i have over stepped the mark in the way i posted my comments, i was just trying to get my point across that the other guy is not the right term for someone who has just cashed in a apat event, personally i would have hoped that the casino would have been able to help with this matter(could be wrong but i think they took his name when he went to get his ticket for his cash from the poker floor manager). I would like to say sorry to any of the apat staff if i have offended them as that was not my point and nor will it ever be as they do a great job, i just promote the apat to all the people that i know that play poker and want the best for it so it continues. No des it was not me 4th in PLO would be a miracle beyond miracles. For the record i had a great weekend and hope to be playing the next apat whenever i can

Hi Chris,

I totally agree with what you are saying, and no need for you to apologise!

AceOnTheRiver above details the sequence of events. However, I should clearly have taken a quick "time out" from updating the Main Event to get the name of the 4th place finisher (it would only have taken a couple of minutes). But, a combination of being seriously jetlagged and trying not to miss the final few hands in the Main, meant I didn"t.

Will make sure I do this next time though.

Fair post that.
Do you know his name, as Matt could then edit his OP?

You can call off the search........I was "the other guy".

I have played many APAT events,both live and online as Chris pointed out.But so have 1000s of others.

I appreciate the hard work you guys put in and the fact that the M/E was coming to an enthralling climax.So to miss the 4th place finisher in the PLO is no great surprise.

Thanks for a great weekend APAT,and very well done Carl (your wife looks nothing like your descriptions on facebook!!)

Thanks Chris for fighting my corner.

Finally,i would kinda like to keep the nickname as i have never had one before.

Thanks again,

Karl "the other guy" Bursford.

Congrats on the 4th spot Karl & it was nice to meet "the other guy"!

I can honestly say I am guilty of not knowing lots of names but faces at APAT events but I"m learning remembering more each time, and as others have said it was the end of a normal but hectic weekend and having updated myself it is hard work.

The only thing I can add is that if anyone cashes in an event could you please take a couple of minutes of your time and go and let the updater/s know yourself so that this doesn"t happen and as a bonus you"ll probably get your name spelt correctly as well. Well apart from Stu and a few other APAT legends ofc who usually go by terms of endearment instead.

Loving this sooo much  ;D ;D ;D

I probably met you at the weekend ... but like Shaz (Supernova) I had difficulty in remembering all the names for about my first 3 seasons and tend to go by forum names. Instead I hug everyone ... love APAT weekends for the hugs alone  ;D

Well done on your 4th place cash x

Hi Karl, thanks for being understanding re: the muff up! It"s not a mistake I"ll be likely to repeat (still learning the APAT ropes!).

nyerun, how do you spell your name? :)

nyerun, how do you spell your name?

I don"t think his is a real name anyway.

I feel a bit bad for the other guy. It happened to me in my first significant non-APAT event, a Gala tournament a couple of years ago, when the AWOP team couldn"t be bothered to find out my name. It was worse cos it was a Main Event and, even when we were down to 20 players, the commentator (who sounded like he was speaking a foreign language) was name-checking all his mates but still referring to me as "the other player" when I was in a hand. I was pretty annoyed at the time but I"m glad to say that I got over it and didn"t bear any grudge against the ignorant lazy feckers and I"ve forgotten all about it now.

I hope the other guy is able to let go of it as completely as I have. Unfortunately, I guess we will never find out his identity.
