Mr.Grumpy

Paul "Mr.Grumpy" Taylor
Paul "Mr.Grumpy" Taylor
Paul Taylor has entertained us this week with his range of "Mr.Men" t-shirts. Taylor wore his "Mr.Happy" t-shirt when he finished 10th in this week's Pot Limit Holdem event, however he hasn't had as much fortune today wearing "Mr.Grumpy". He's going to have to quickly turn that "frown upside down" as he peddles his short stack.

Jim Sachinidis' Unlucky Ladies

Jim Sachinidis has built a mountain of chips in front of himself but just stumbled in a big multi-way on a boisterous table 32.

The pre-flop action saw Shaun Deeb 3-bet and Sachinidis cap the action from the button. Rayan Nathan then cold called the capped bet from the small blind as did the other players.

The flop brought {A-Spades}{3-Hearts}{J-Hearts} and Nathan led out with the opening bet. The big blind called, as did Deeb and Sachinidis.

The turn is the {7-Hearts} and once again Nathan leads out to find three callers.

The river is the {J-Clubs} and Nathan fires a third bullet to which two players, including Sachinidis make the call.

Nathan flips {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts} for the nut flush and Sachinidis jokingly calls Nathan a "luckbox" as he flashes pocket queens.

Fricke's Boat Sails

Five players including Jimmy Fricke took a flop of {7-Hearts}{4-Spades}{2-Hearts}. Fricke makes the opening bet and finds himself two customers. The turn lands {A-Clubs} and Fricke check-raises the bet of his opponent, but again both players make the call. The river is a repeat {A-Diamonds} and Fricke leads at the pot. His opponent re-raised and Fricke 3-bets to create a monster pot. His opponent calls and flips {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts} for trips but it's not enough to beat {A-Spades}{2-Spades} as Fricke's boat reels in a huge pot!

Jim Sachinidis on the Move

A short stacked Wes Hall put the last of his chips into the middle in a raised pot against Jim Sachinidis and Peter Pratis. Sachinidis and Pratis checked down the board of {7-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{9-Spades}{J-Clubs} and the cards were tabled.

Hall held {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}, trailing the pocket eights of Pratis, but both lost the pot to the {9-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} of Sachinidis for a pair of nines.
