James Orchard is the tournament"s first casualty.

With a healthy "Alternates" list, and Staker action available, Ben Kimber has now taken a place at the table.

Still only in Level 2, blinds 50/100
Title: Re: APAT Portsmouth Day 1 Updates
Post by: Luthee13 on November 26, 2016, 15:43:01 PM
2nd out - Gerald Bishop.

He makes space for Peter Kelly to try his hand.

Post by: Luthee13 on November 26, 2016, 15:57:23 PM
Christopher Forth takes a seat as Christoper Orr departs.

Just under 10 minutes into Level 3, with blinds of 75/150.

Post by: Luthee13 on November 26, 2016, 16:00:41 PM
David "two Vegas packages isn"t enough" Griffiths has just informed me he has found himself with around 28k.

A few smaller hands and then a standard Qh Qs v Jh Jd . With 3 and 4 bets pre and the board running out blank, David - with the ladies, bet turn and river and Joseph Greenfield, with knaves made the calls.

Nice stack early doors.

David Hawley has been eliminated and so we now have Russell Scotcher in the mix.

25 mins left of Level 3.

Post by: Luthee13 on November 26, 2016, 16:20:06 PM
Shirley Cole in a big hand -

It is called in late position for 150.
Shirley, two seats from the button, makes it 450 to call.
She finds four callers, Justin Hazeldene, Stephen Mooney - on the button, Lee Scarth in the big blind and Marc Morris to her right.

Stephen checks to her on a flop of 3h 5d 10h Shirley makes it 1200 and only Stephen makes the call.

Shirley fires another 3k on the turn of Jc and Stephen quickly calls and has around 3k behind.

4c river sees Shirley put out 2k and Stephen instantly makes the call.

He is left with less than 1k when he shows Ah Jd and Shirley tables Qc Qh

Shirley on around 20k.

(https://scontent-lhr3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/15170857_10154814584067437_8371569213928925393_n.jpg?oh=eadd077cfda32b203ced3540b6ed7cd7&oe=58BDB165)
Title: Re: APAT Portsmouth Day 1 Updates
Post by: Luthee13 on November 26, 2016, 16:24:17 PM
And Stephen"s love for the ladies is further tested the very next hand:

The board is 5s 4d 5c 6d


Stephen, calling Diyary Khdir"s raise from the cut off pre, has been betting all the way and the pot is around 8k.

The river comes the 7s and Diyary, first to act, makes it 6k.
Stephen quickly calls and shows Qd Qc
Diyary tables 8d 8h for the rivered straight.

Title: Re: APAT Portsmouth Day 1 Updates
Post by: Luthee13 on November 26, 2016, 16:34:44 PM
Lisa Greer loses a little when Stephen Carter makes two pair on the turn with his 5d 9d

He raises her on the turn with the board 8c 5h 10s 9h she makes the call and they both check the 6d river.

Lisa mucked.

Post by: Luthee13 on November 26, 2016, 18:05:56 PM
13k in the pot, board of 5h Ah 5s Jc 6h and Simon Brooke saying "I"m going to need a minute here guys, sorry"


Stephen Carter has bet 8k and Lisa Greer has made the call. It is now on Simon to decide.

He tanks. He says "One more minute folks, one more minute". At which, Stephen calls a clock and Simon accepts it.

He eventually folds saying to Stephen "You"ve got aces full though, right?"

Stephen, to Lisa"s dismay says "Better" and shows the pocket 5c 5d for flopped quads.

Stephen asked Lisa what she had as she had mucked and she declared the flush.


Simon Brooke "I am a genius!"

(Stephen Carter amassing chips...)

Level 5, blinds 100/200 with 25 ante and a flurry of action, mostly poker displaying it"s ability to be brutal...

Tristan Chaplin and Jack Middleton end up getting all their chips in pre - around 20k pot!

It appears Tristan raised in late position with Ad 9c
Jack, on the button, didn"t believe him and raised.
Tristan didn"t believe Jack and re-raised.
Jack, still believing Tristan is weak, jams all in with Kh 10s and Tristan finds a call.

Ac 10d 4s flop, Tristan still ahead.

7d turn

Ks river and Jack gets the double up.

Jack: "Can you be sure to put that I shipped on him, I didn"t think I was ahead...I thought he was weak"

(A perplexed Tristan...)

The pot is already huge at this point and the board is A s 9d 6h

Aaron Swaisland bets out and Marco Dent goes into thinking mode.

A few minutes later, he makes the call and they see 7d

Marco puts a bet out but the following "all in" from Aaron sends Marco back into the tank.

Around 3 or 4 minutes later, he makes the call.

Aaron shows Ad 9s
Marco has 6c 6s

Aaron "How did it take you so long to call with that?"

Ah river

Aaron "OUCH! Sorry mate, that"s why you took so long to call"

And, with that, Marco is eliminated and Aaron scoops a sizeable pot.

Aaron...

John Murray "Where"s Lucy?!"

Three way all in:

Chris Parker shipped around 5.5k pre flop in mid position.
Darren Proud calls for less.
John re raises all in for a sizeable amount more.
The rest fold and they go on their backs:

Chris has A s Jh and has Darren covered.
Darren is at risk to John and Chris with 9s Jc
John has both covered and goes in ahead with 9d 9c

Kh Jd 2s 5s 2c board and it"s all change.

Chris almost triples up and eliminates Darren in the process.

John takes a small hit.

On the table next door:

Neil Godfrey is sat with all his chips in the middle and Ah Ac
Kevan Stanswood has a huge amount of his chips in the middle, having made the call pre flop, and has Qs Qc

The board has run out ten high and Neil is raking in the chips.

I am told that seat 5 on table 6 is jinxed....

About ten minutes into Level 7, blinds are 200/400 with a 50 ante.


Shirley Cole has all of her chips across the line and her cards face up.

The board is showing 4d 7c Qd 10s Js

Kiran Anand has called her raise pre and her bets on the flop and turn before re raising her on the river.

She has shipped it and he has made the call and is now showing Ah Jh

Shirley has 4h 4c and scoops a pot of over 30k

With 91 players remaining from a starting field of 125, average stack is 20k.


Neil Godfrey and Kevan Stanswood (in the "jixed" seat) both commit 4k pre flop with Neil on the button and Kevan in the cut off.

They both instantly check the Qs Jd 3c flop and Kevan"s bet of 4.5k on the 6s turn is quickly called by Neil.

Ks hits the river and Kevan immediately flicks to brown 5k chips across the line and Neil...

Neil screams. Loud. He is visibly unimpressed with the river and says "I have a set but everything goes there...I have to call" and flicks his two brown 5k chips across the line too.

Kevan shows Qc Qh for the flopped set

Neil then quickly tables his Kh Kd for the rivered bigger and better set.

He collects that rather big pot.

Ken McBride calls me over for a big hand:

The clock has just been called on David Griffiths.

Around 15k in the middle already, 6c Qh 3c Ah

Stephen Carter has moved all in for around 15k.

Joanna Harris has also gone all in for ever so slightly more.

David is in the decision making seat and has been thinking for some time already.

As the floor arrives, David makes the call.

Stephen shows Ad 6h for two pair.
Joanna has flopped a set with Qc Qd
David has Ac 7c for top pair and a flush draw

5c on the river and David scoops the lot.

Joanna is left with around 100 chips, Stephen is out.

Ten minutes into Level 8, blinds 300/600, ante 100. Average stack is 23k.

Two busts since the break:

Tristain Chaplain
Marc Morris
Title: Re: APAT Portsmouth Day 1 Updates
Post by: Luthee13 on November 26, 2016, 21:09:01 PM
Tristain Chaplain just relayed his exit hand to me...

"Joe Carrhill raises under the gun and I have around 11k and look down at pocket Jacks and I"m hating life but I ship it anyway.
Joe makes the call. 3 3 2 on the flop, nice enough, but on the turn...the king...Joe had Ace king. Brick on the river, a 9 maybe and I"m out."

Post by: Luthee13 on November 26, 2016, 21:16:02 PM
Steven Lucy and Patrick Newman are both holding cards on a 5d 5s 3s flop.

Steven says "all in" for around 13k and Patrick quickly calls.

Steven has Ad 4d

Patrick has A s Js and has Steven covered.

6s on the turn and 6h on the river, Patrick wins the hand and sends Steven to the rail.

Title: Re: APAT Portsmouth Day 1 Updates
Post by: Luthee13 on November 26, 2016, 21:21:33 PM
Chris Parker moves all in pre flop for less than 10k.
It folds to John Murray who re raises all in for a significant amount more and the rest fold.

John shows Ac Kd
Chris has Ah 5h

Ad 8s 10c 4s 6d

John takes the pot and ends the tournament for Chris.

Title: Re: APAT Portsmouth Day 1 Updates
Post by: Luthee13 on November 26, 2016, 21:28:26 PM
The "all in" comes on the flop.

A raise to 3600 pre from Alex Lord is called by Daniel Cocksedge.

9d 7s Ad flop sees Alex lead out for 5300 and Daniel moves all in over the top for about another 7k - most of Alex"s stack too.

He makes the call.
Alex has A s Jh
Daniel Kd 8d

5c on the turn and 8h on the river mean Alex stays ahead, doubles up and knocks Daniel out of the tournament.

Simon Brooke is the latest casualty

Having lost a flip not many hands before, he finds a queen and a jack of the heart variety and moves all his remaining chips across the line (around 12 big blinds)

Unfortunately, David Griffiths finds an ace and a queen of the diamond variety and, as Simon tells it "that plays out as you would expect it to"

Joseph Greenfield moves all in pre flop.

David Griffiths looks him up.

Joseph has Kc 9c
David has him covered and has Qs Jd

6s Qd 4h flop puts Joseph behind and at risk

4c on the turn, Joseph needs a king.

Js means David needlessly improves to two pair and Joseph is out.

Last Level of play for today, Level 10. Blinds 500/1000, ante 100, average stack 32.5k


Kevan Stanswood and Dave Kingswell are the latest to fall.

Dave, having had to fold to a re raise on the turn - 3rd heart on the board - a few hands previous, was down to 12k.

Mark Porter raises to 2k and Dave says "all in"

It folds back round to Mark, who quickly makes the call and shows Kd Kh
Dave "Oh well, I have one over" and shows Ad Kc

But the board is a misely 4h 2c 10c 6h 5d and means Mark scoops Dave"s last chips and sends him to the rail.

Post by: Luthee13 on November 26, 2016, 22:35:02 PM
Shirley Cole limps under the gun plus one.
Scott Berridge makes it 4.3k
Stephen Lewis next to act, moves all in for 8.4k
It folds to Tyler Dexter, in the big blind, who re raises all in for over 40k

Shirley, who clearly didn"t like Scott"s raise to 4k, never mind the rest, folds.
Scott asks for a count as he and Tyler have very similar stacks. He makes the fold showing Ac Kh

Stephen has Ah 9h
Tyler has Js Jc

Stephen needs to improve to survive.

8h Qh 5s flop and Stephen increases his outs. Any heart or ace...

Ad on the turn sees the dynamic switch, Stephen now only has to avoid a Jack and he will almost triple up

6c river and Stephen finds himself with over 20k, average 33k.

Joshua Reeves is reduced even further.

He found Kh Js under the gun and decided to move his approximately 17k all in.

It folded to Rob D"eath in the big blind. He wakes up with Ah Kd and loves to call with only 14k himself.

The board is a particularly uninteresting 5c 7h 7c 6s 4d

Rob gets the double up and Joshua has around 3k.
Title: Re: APAT Portsmouth Day 1 Updates
Post by: Luthee13 on November 26, 2016, 22:45:52 PM
The rest of Joshua Reeves" chips are lost when the very next hand, in the big blind, he has Ad 5s but is called by Ah Jc.
Although they both paired their Aces on the flop, Joshua couldn"t find the second pair and he is out.
Title: Re: APAT Portsmouth Day 1 Updates
Post by: Luthee13 on November 26, 2016, 23:07:17 PM
Asa McGrath makes it 2.5k to go in the cut off.

Ken McBride makes the call from the button.

Vivienne Barber, in the small blind, moves all in for just under 20k.

It folds to Asa, he folds.

Ken gets the count and, with only around 26k himself, makes the call.

Vivienne has Ac Jh
Ken has 9d 9c

5c 8c Jd on the flop, Vivienne goes ahead and Ken will be severely short stacked if he can"t improve...

7s on the turn gives Ken the double gut shot straight draw and he now needs a 6, a 9 or a 10...

8s on the river and Vivienne doubles up.

Ken with around 6k.
Title: Re: APAT Portsmouth Day 1 Updates
Post by: Luthee13 on November 26, 2016, 23:17:53 PM
Ten minutes out, clock paused and four more hands to play.

Webber makes a big move, all in in fact, for 30k.

Pot is around 20k and the board is 4s 10s 7d 5c 3c

Amit Patel is faced with a big decision and, eventually, folds. Chris adds a sizeable amount to his stack.

Mark Lassman wakes up with Jc Js after Luke Diaper shipped around 15k blind.

Luke turns over 5c 2h

Ks 2c 7h 9c Kc board and Luke is out.
Title: Re: APAT Portsmouth Day 1 Updates
Post by: Luthee13 on November 26, 2016, 23:30:11 PM
Similar story with Rob D"eath and Stephen Lewis.

Rob moved all in blind and Stephen looks down at Ah 10s and makes the call.

Rob shows 6d 5s

2s 8h 7h flop brings hope, outs and sweats for both...

Kc turn means Rob needs a 4, 5 6 or 9 to survive

Jh river and Rob hits the rail.
