Heath Admits Pwnage

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Jon Heath has been quietly chipping up to about 240,000 on a very tough table that includes Christian Harder, Teddy Sheringham and Stuart Fox.

He did get beat in one pot which he recalled amused.

"A guy raised preflop to 5,000 and I made it 15,500 with {7-?}

. He flatted with 50,000 behind so I was going to give up, but the flop came {A-?}

so I thought I'd have a go. I bet 19,000 and he moved all-in, I fold and he shows {4-Diamonds}

! He had not done anything out of the ordinary until that point!"

Wice Squad Hit

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

We arrived at the table to see a {6-Clubs}

flop out, and Sebastian Zink had moved all in. Alex Wice spent a long time staring intently at the flop, before eventually calling.

Wice: {K-Spades}

Zink:

and making a noise like, "Nuhhh! Nuhhh!"

Turn: {J-Clubs}

River:

Zink made a little fist pump and doubled to 145,000. Wice walked off but quickly circled back to his seat and his remaining 44,000 stack.

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

JP Kelly won't be holding out for a hero until the morning light on this day.

He just called bets on the flop, turn and river of a {J-Hearts}

blind on blind with {J-?}

which was good enough to beat his opponent.

Kelly up to 80,000.

Board: an unscary {6-Diamonds}

Smith doubles to 95,000; Donev drops to 95,000.

No Mr Bond! I Expect You To Double Me Up.

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Yilfer Shevket (who likes everyone to call him 'James Bond' or 'Mr Bond') pushed over the top of Nick Gibson's raise.

Gibson said, "I've never seen you this quiet Mr Bond, do you have something like a pair of fours?"

Shevkhet replied, "You're not going to get any information out of me, I'm Mr Bond!"

Very villainesque.

Gibson then moved in and showed {6-Clubs}

, Shevkhet shrugged, "I only have two overs," turning up {A-Spades}
