Vaplew expelled

Level 2 : 75/150, 0 ante

David Vamplew failed to find any magic today and just fell to the hands of his neighbour. The former EPT London raised to 250 from UTG and was only called in one spot.

The flop fell {a-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{8-Hearts} and Vamplew's 475 c-bet was quickly bumped up to 1,575 by his opponent. Vamplew called to see the {j-Spades} turn where he check-raised all in with {a-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}. He was snap called by his opponent holding {a-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} for two-pair.

The river bricked and Vamplew headed off saying he didn't mind his play as his opponent was a bit "mad."

Kemp Can't Kill

When we arrived at Jai Kemp's table he had a player all in on a flop showing {4-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{6-Diamonds}. Kemp held {7-}{7-}, while his opponent held {q-}{q-}.

The {3-Hearts} on the turn changed nothing and when the {8-Clubs} completed the board, Kemp's opponent took down the pot and put a dent in Kemp's stack.

Leaking Chips

Level 2 : 75/150, 0 ante

Jamie Rosen, Marvin Rettenmaier, and Jack Ellwood have all seen their stacks head south.

Ellwood was down to 150 chips and failed to make a miraculous comeback.

Rosen and Rettenmaier both made it to the turn in a hand, and both succumbed to an opponent in position.

Rosen was in the small blind and check-called a 1,700 bet on a {a-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} flop. The turn came {9-Spades} and he check-folded to a 3,500 bet after some serious thought. He dropped to 7,000 in chips.

Rettenmaier was three handed to a {q-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{q-Hearts} flop and he led for 825. He found one caller to the {7-Spades} turn where the German check-folded to a 1,350 bet. He has around 11,000 chips.
