Can you please tell Marcin that I have temporarily paid his entry fee? Otherwise I would have to give his seat to an alternate.

Please tell him to find Richard when he arrives and settle up, thanks

OK we are underway with 153 runners

Quite a few late because of Friday traffic problems, which is unfortunate, but let"s hope they are here soon


All requests for chips will be considered. Ignored if you don"t give me the name of a famous place in Nottinghamshire to accompany the request.

The Duke has put a £50 bounty on Laxie, to the person who knocks her out

tikay puts up a £10 prize for Laxie if she can keep quiet for 10 minutes. After 10 seconds he reclaims the money

"never any chance of losing that bet" he says, with the supreme confidence of one who knows his onions

Big hand

Paddy Winterbottom raises with Aces, called by Phil Starrs with 65 and Jamie Reeve of Blue Square with 33

flop an action-tastic 6-6-3


Winterbottom bets, Reeve calls and Starrs shoves. Inevitably all three end up all-in and Reevio trebles up leaving the other two short-stacked


Kev Ridley meanwhile ahs recovered from 75 chips to 1300. Now that would be a story if he went deep!

The Legend of Ye Olde Trip To Jerusalem

The original Castle of Nottingham was established on the rock in the year 1068 by William Perverill for William the Conqueror. Perverill caused the course of the River Leen to be altered to pass by the foot of the rock, partly as a moated defence and partly as a water supply for the Castle.

After the building of the Castle, one of the first additions would have been the Brewhouse.

Brian Clough was the sixth of nine children of a local sweet shop worker, later sugar boiler and then manager. The eldest, Elizabeth, died in 1927 of septicemia at the age of four. When talking of his childhood he said he "adored it in all its aspects. If anyone should be grateful for their upbringing, for their mam and dad, I"m that person. I was the kid who came from a little part of paradise." On his upbringing in Middlesbrough, Clough claimed that it was not the nicest place in the world, "But to me it was heaven".

No.

In my question there is no way Player A, leading the turn, cannot win after the river

In yours, no Ace clubs on the river, A wins

Karl Jones 14,000

No one knows where Goose Fair got its name. Legend has it that it comes from the hundreds of geese, which were at one time driven from Lincolnshire and Norfolk to be sold in Nottingham. This may seem far fetched but it could well be true because the fair is held at the time of year when geese are in their prime and roast goose was for centuries a traditional Michaelmas treat.

But just think of the logistics of driving 20,000 or so of them on foot from the fens of Lincolnshire or Cambridgeshire, or even Norfolk! Apparently the trick was to coat the birds" feet with a mixture of tar and sand to protect them on the long journey

Leigh Wiltshire just out and looking pained

Early position raiser to 3k

Leigh finds Ace King and rams 14k into the middle

After a dwell, the call is made with Queen Jack of hearts

The board - 6 7 7 7 Q!

Opponent claims he had the odds to call, but having played spiderman all day, Leigh looks shattered.


He sure did!

Wow what a day! 4 hours to go 110 miles arrived 2 mins before the start. But started off okay. Then my play varied between averagely bad and shockingly bad, got in a mess with A 7, got rivered when a head on two occasions, before hitting a 4 outer myself to stay alive when all in. This just delayed the inevitable, out at about half ten. Wish I could say my luck changed on the cash tables, but not as bad as a fellow APATer who sat down with £100, after 2 hands pushed all in with pocket K on a 10 9 3 board, to be called by 10 6 !! Yep 7 turn 8 river, super sick!
Then 1 and three quarters hour drive back.
I was disappointed not to be able to do a bit more socializing, but had to be back here today. Good luck to everybody who made the final day, and to all playing today. And a big thanks to Des, tighty and the team.

BTW - was so hyped after the 1a reached its last level, couldn"t resist a few cheeky hands on the Omaha £1-£1 table. Easy pickings with the like of Mr Trumper etc  :P One memorable hand where I was able to chop a nice pot with massive Str-Flsh draw and one I railed where the winner took down a monster of around £1700. THIS IS £1-£1 for GOD SAKE! Omaha FTW!

See you guys on Sunday - Good Luck to everyone in 1b, enjoy your day at the Ultimate Poker Venue!

Poker quiz question

After the turn Player A is winning the hand, in a Heads Up Pot

Player A cannot win though after the river


What two cards are each of the two players holding?

and what are the four community cards (suits not relevant)?


Did anyone answer this as I think I have it (assuming Player A can split)?

Player A - 7-2
Player B - 5-6

Board  3-3-4-4

Player A is leading with 2 pair higher kicker (7). Any 2 or 7 gives player B the straight, any 5 or 6 gives Player B the higher 2 pair. Any 3, 4, 8 or higher and they both play the board.

Am I right?

Prize?

Great job yesterday and Thursday as usual. See you tomorrow for the HORSE.

Player A cannot win though after the river


What two cards are each of the two players holding?

and what are the four community cards (suits not relevant)?


Did anyone answer this as I think I have it (assuming Player A can split)?

Player A - 7-2
Player B - 5-6

Board  3-3-4-4

Player A is leading with 2 pair higher kicker (7). Any 2 or 7 gives player B the straight, any 5 or 6 gives Player B the higher 2 pair. Any 3, 4, 8 or higher and they both play the board.

Am I right?

Prize?

Great job yesterday and Thursady as usual. See you tomorrow for the HORSE.






correct!!! excellent

prize?????? I take that as a "no" then  ;D

I think it was an unfortunate choice of phrase, but don"t think it was meant in the way that it could be intrepreted.  Either way it"s not acceptable and we"ve removed it.  I thought the donk remark was referring to himself.

To clarify, I apoligise if I caused any offense with my choice of words - it is a common phrase relating to super aggressive players used on another forum I post at, I mean it with no disrespect at all. I could understand why it would be associated so, but the word id used so commonly in the online poker world now that it is simply synonomous with super aggression, this is all.

Again, I apoligise though. I should have thought before realising that it may not be as common here and hence taken as a derogatory or unethical comment.

And yeah, the super donk play was related to myself :)

Yeah I am. Not a bad shout, assuming the business and gf aren"t too demanding i"ll get down there :)

Sweet comp tonight in Manch, £150 freezeout with GUKPT structure. On a medium streak, took down an online donkament for $2k on Ongame two days ago and had a couple of 2 buy in sessions at cash at the G, hopefully it continues!

If you are in the area for whatever reason, let me know, I assume APAT have my email address. The G Casino has a ton of nice action.
