Nick Wright can usually be found reporting on the UKIPT and other major live events. Today he is playing in one and we are having to report on him. Wright seems to be more than holding his own right now and is armed with 60,000 chips.
On a board, Wright fired a 1,225 bet from the blind and Oliver Prior, in late position, decided to call. The on the river did not slow Wright down and he bet two yellow chips worth a combined 2,000. Prior called, but he really shouldn't have as Wright held . Nice hand, sir.
Matt Dale may be Mr APAT, but his play is anything but amateur. Dale has just stacked Duncan McLellan.
The chips went into the middle of the felt on a flop, Dale holding the and McLellan the far inferior and dominated . The turn locked up the hand for Dale and McLellan had already left his seat by the time the landed on the river.
First to act, Francisco da Costa Santos open-limped for 300. To his immediate left was Sebastian Cadenel who raised to 2,300. A couple of folds later and it was the turn of Paul Theodore to act on the button. He removed the pink package of chewing gum from the top of his cards and then called. Jamie Burland called from the big blind and when da Costs Santos folded, the dealer got busy spreading the flop.
Flop: - Burland tapped the table and checked, Cadenel fired a 3,500 bet into the middle and Theodore raised to 10,550. Burland let out a sigh as he sent his cards back to the dealer, and Cadenel called.
Turn: - Cadenel instantly checked and then instantly called as Theodore put out a 5,500 bet.
River: - More instant checked by Cadenel was met with an all-in bet of 17,000 from Theodore. Cadenel, who looked like a man who knew he should have folded on the flop, released his hand.
Jon Spinks fired a bet of 5,200 on the turn of a board against Yucel Eminoglu, the latter called to see a on the river. Spinks bet 13,300 and Eminoglu instantly folded.
Spinks has about 50,000 at the moment, he should've had more but misclick/bluffed about 15,000 when he thought his opponent had only bet 1/5th of pot instead of an amount five time that size.
Former EPT champion Ramsi Jelassi is up to almost 100,000 after a substantial double up through Michal Polchlopek. Jelassi had check-raised a 2,800 bet to 7,000 on a flop of before firing 10,000 on the turn. Polchlopek called this bet and then took little more than a minute to call the all-in shove for 30,000 on the river.
Jelassi flipped for a flopped full house which was more than enough to beat the Pole.
Charles Clark made a rather large raise of four-times the big blind from the cutoff seat. Next to act was Rony Halami on the button who called the 1,200 bet. From the small blind, Nicolas Cardyn squeezed out a substantial raise of 4,300 and only Clark called.
The flop prompted Cardyn to continue with a 4,400 bet. Clark tossed in a solitary 5,000 chip to make the call. The saw the roles of the players reverse. Cardyn checked, Clark bet 1,800 and Cardyn went don the passive route and called. The river was the and both players checked.
Jonathan Weeks checked from the big blind with the board reading putting the action on Ben Vinson. From the button, Vinson tested the waters with a 1,200 bet, a bet that Weekes wasted little time in calling. The turn brought the into play and neither player seemed to impressed with its arrival as they both checked.
The completed the board and Weekes upped the aggression and splashed a bet of 1,450. Vinson remained motionless, except for the riffling of green chips. Less than a minute later, Vinson called but quickly mucked as Weekes turned over the for a pair of nines.
