Was up and down like a yoyo at first yesterday. was upto 23k early on but got a bit stuck and finally moved tables with 10k. built up to 20k, then had a great 30 minutes where I was raising every pot and got upto 70k. after 2 more moved 2 tables I got put on table 2, where I lost most of my chips in 2 big pots.
didnt play this very well at all.
the first sb raised all in and I called with pocket 7s. he had a8. should have asked for a count as I Lost nearly 25k there. thought he only had about 13k.

then raised 3xbb with ak, got re-raised then went all in, he had aa. lost over 45k there. 2 minutes later the lady on my left said said to me hes a rock and has only played 2 hands all day both aces. Fenner who was sat in my seat earlier came over about 30 minutes later and said thay guy only plays aces. thanks guys.

was down to about 20k and was still get some good hands so was very aggressive and all in about 20 times, got one caller on the way and my 10s held up against his 9s.

Day 2 starts in a few hours so we will see.

p.s thanks to the guys for railing and supporting particularly mrs Rosco, run and avon.

Well done Rosco, cracking effort.

Does anyone know if Steve Talbot, from EMS, is still in. I had had £2.50e/w on him at 100s, along with Morls and Darren Shallis. Just wondering if I still have a shout, as it said he was v short after the earlier hand.

Can't see any info on the APAT site, but neither does it say Ross's exit hand either, so mustnt be up to date

[ubermonkey1]

[runadrum]

Well played Ross, especially for giving us a reason for going back to the casino today

Also a mention for Gaz who was going well and was unlucky not to at least get into the points (top 50).

My own tournament wasn't too great. I was determined to get involved early (in contrast to the WSOP) so raised with AJh (very first hand) and AQh and AK and 77 and 66 within the first half-hour but hit nothing and ended up folding postflop. Did start hitting though and eventually got to 12k at best until raising 1200 with 66 and calling a further 4k to the shortstack BB all-in with 77, no help to either on the board. A few hands later raised 2.5k with AQ but put all-in by the table bigstack BB with JJ and I was out after a board with a couple of kings but not the overcards I needed.

Tournament as a whole was played in a good spirit. Can't report on which team won as we came away after Lou Saban went out in 10th place but was looking like being the Bristol & South West Meetup.

Well played Lou
