One of poker’s quirks is that you never know what you're going to get, as one unfortunate player found out earlier today:
Last year, Leo McClean turned £82 into over £250,000 thanks to qualifying online for EPT London then finishing in third place. He's back again this year and able to afford the buy-in this time. Things have been going pretty well so as he's already up to around 60,000. If you'd like to learn a little more about his remarkable story, then check out the video below:

David Kitai just made near identical and puzzling to his opponent’s plays in back-to-back hands. First Steven Smith opened the action for 500 and Kitai three-bet him to 1,250. Smith made the call and they went to a flop of ![]()
![]()
. Kitai bet 875 when it was checked to him and got a call. On the turn card
Kitai decided to bet 200, the amount of the big blind at this level. Smith made the call though and they both checked the river card
. Smith showed ![]()
and that was good as Kitai mucked.
Kitai was back in action on the next hand, again three-betting an opener to and going heads up to a flop of ![]()
![]()
. Kitai bet 850 and got a call to go to the turn
where once more Kitai bet 200. His opponent grinned which was returned bot he threw in the calling chips. A river
was checked around and Kitai mucked when his opponent turned over his ![]()
.
It may not have worked in these two hands but it looks like Kitai is trying to keep his opponents guessing and playing a wide range against him and something must be working as he is sitting with over twice his starting stack.

Four players including Kai Herold and Fabrice Soulier took a flop of ![]()
![]()
. The small blind checked and Herold followed suit, putting the action on Soulier. He came out swinging for 1,025 and found a call from the fourth player. The small blind folded and Herold stuck around.
The trio of players watched on as the
fell on fourth street. Action checked to Soulier for a second time and he continued his aggression with a bet of 2,150. The other player in the hand quickly released his cards while Herold opted to stay the course. The
came on the river and Herold checked for a third time. Soulier moved out 5,100 and Herold wasted little time dropping out a call.
Soulier showed ![]()
for a flopped straight to the queen. It was no good, however, as Herold tabled ![]()
for a rivered heart flush. Herold scooped the pot and brought his stack to 47,000. Soulier, on the other hand, dropped to 16,000

Ludovic Geilich, who made the final here last year (and the final table at the UKIPT Isle of Man event last week) has been knocked out by PokerStars Mind Sports Ambassador Jennifer Shahade.
"I kinda turned two pair against him in one pot then rivered two pair against him in another," said Shahade, admitting her good fortune in knocking out the Scottish player. Shahade is over the 40,000 mark.
