With 3 tables of PLO and 3 tables of NLHE, there is a nice feel in the casino.
A few noteable faces in the PLO with Dawn Cooke, Gary Lipman, Chris Alexander, Terry Evans and Rob Davies amongst them.
Over on the NLHE tables Karen Mead, Warren Jones, Dave Amos, Dave Pilkington and Dave Kingswell are some of the familiar faces playing away.
-
Karen Mead has bust the NLHE.
She raises pre and it all goes in on the flop against Dwayne.
Karen has Ad Ah but Dwayne hits his flush on the river and sends Karen to the rail.
-
Fave Paxton busts the PLO. When his flush draw didn't hit, he goes down to 3k and then a flush drawer against him gets there and he is bust.
Are you going to re enter Dave? "Naah"
Dave Paxton is back in the PLO 5 minutes later.
-
A rush of entries into the NLHE sees two more tables open with a queue at the cash desk!
Meanwhile, the PLO goes on a break - chip counts to follow.

So as we kick off the inaugural holding of The Counties, we have 152 players seated for the first STT of the day, with 3 STTs in total being played on Day 1:
SATURDAY 15TH DECEMBER
13:00 The Counties NLHE Tag STT 10k stack on 20 min clock
17:30 *The Counties NLHE Survivor Shootout Tag STT 20k stack on 20 min clock (30 min Level 1)
21:00 **The Counties Antes Only Tag STT 10k stack on 30 min clock
SUNDAY 16TH DECEMBER
13:00 The Counties NLHE Tag STTs (8 x 10-handed) 10k stack on 20 min clock
18:00 The Counties FINAL TABLE 8 NLHE Tag STT 10k stack on 30 min clock[/center]
Day 1 of The Counties will have ALL PLAYERS from every team each compete in an STT, with eliminated/non-playing team members able to tag with any other team member in an STT (whilst the table is not involved in a hand) - if there is any dispute between team members as to whether a 'tag' will take place, then the final decision rests with the player already at the table. A team CANNOT tag until at least 1 of their members has been eliminated from an STT (so before this happens, you CANNOT simply decide to 'tag/swop tables').
Points will be scored by team players' finishing positions in each STT and the top 3 scores for each team in each STT will be combined to identify the top 20 teams at the end of Day 1 on Saturday, with those teams progressing onto Day 2 on Sunday.
STT Points: | |
| |
1st | 15 pts |
2nd | 12 pts |
3rd | 10 pts |
4th | 8 pts |
5th | 6 pts |
6th | 4 pts |
7th | 3 pts |
8th | 2 pts |
9th | 1 pt |
Day 2 of The Counties - Final Table Qualifying Round will have ALL PLAYERS from every Day 2 QUALIFYING TEAMS each compete in an STT, with eliminated/non-playing team members able to tag with any other team member in an STT (whilst the table is not involved in a hand) - if there is any dispute between team members as to whether a 'tag' will take place, then the final decision rests with the player already at the table. A team CANNOT tag until at least 1 of their members has been eliminated from an STT (so before this happens, you CANNOT simply decide to 'tag/swop tables'). The WINNERS (only) of each STT will qualify their team for a 10k starting stack on the Final Table.
Day 2 of The Counties - Final Table Where any team qualifies more than 1 player for the Final Table, then that team will start the Final Table with their team player/representative at the Final Table having a multiple stack (10k for each FT qualified player) - meaning Final Table Qualifying Teams will NOT have multiple PLAYERS on the Final Table, but may start the Final Table with Multiple STARTING STACKS (NB - this means that the Final Table may have LESS than the maximum 8 teams/players).
Team members may tag between hands - but on this occasion the TEAM CAPTAIN will have the final say on whether a tag takes place or not (in the absence of the Team Captain then again the player at the table has the final say).
Each team on the Final Table will have 2 'time out' cards which the player sitting (and ONLY the player sitting) may exercise at any time whilst in a hand AND THE ACTION IS ON THEM - they will each be for 1 minute during which the seated player may consult with his other team members.

So Day 2 of The Counties and we have 8 x 10-handed tables, with 20 teams represented with 4 players each - all 4 individually playing an STT - and the winner of each STT will qualify their team for a 10k stack on the final table - if a team wins multiple STTs, then they will still only be represented on the final table with ONE member, but they would have multiple stacks - ie if a team wins 3 STTs then they would have a 30k starting stack on the final table.
Seat draw for Day 2 below - once a team loses 1 player, then that team is free to 'tag' as they wish between all team members...

Well done folks! Great weekend.
-
On behalf of Sunderland, thanks to all involved once again for a brilliant weekend, we've had a great time as we always do at these events.
We thought the format was great, generally on day 2, the majority of us are never involved so end up sitting around waiting for players to get knocked out before we could go home, however, this game kept the full team involved on the 2nd day.
I loved the tagging aspect too, and just playing a few different formats of hold'em, all a good change, and certainly made you approach the games with a different thought process.
Enjoying the weekend always comes first as far as we are concerned, if we win something then thats a bonus, we've been lucky enough to win this one, with our good friends from Durham finishing 2nd, it really couldnt have been much better.
Captain of Sunderland, being top of the league, and bringing home a medal, best result since 1973!!
Have a great Christmas everyone, see you in Blackpool!!
Hawayyyyy Sunlun (AKA Hetton Mob).
