Best of British

[user3511]

The TV table might have Negreanu, Lederer and Nelson, but table 4 has some of the best UK circuit players around:

Ian Frazer
Willie Tann
Karl Mahrenholz
Harry Demetriou

All big hitters in the UK, hopefully one of this guys can take control and represent the UK all the way to the final

Fronda Plays the Nuts

[user46298]

"I had to slowplay pocket Queens to death."

It took him a minute to comment, when he found the cards on their backs (him all in vs. Max Katz), "Oh he's drawing dead!" Perhaps Ryan Fronda was waiting for the irrelevant river to relax fully...after it looked like his opponent had put him all in and he had called his remaining chips.

Fronda: {Q-Clubs}

Katz:

Board:

The river: {9-Clubs}

Achilleas Kallakis Eliminated

[user22113]

Achilleas Kallakis pushed all-in from early position and got a quick call from Tim Flanders. Kallakis somewhat sheepishly turned over {Q-Clubs}

to Flanders' {A-Spades}

.

"You're actually not that far behind," said Jamie Gold, by way of consolation.

The flop came down {A-Diamonds}

. "Well, now you are," quipped Gold.

The turn was the {6-Clubs}

and Kallakis was drawing dead.

Roland de Wolfe Eliminated

[user38334]

Roland de Wolfe was all in with {K-Spades}

vs Julien Bertazzon's {9-Diamonds}

on a flop of {9-Hearts}

and needed a spade to survive against Bertazzon's set. The turn was the {K-Hearts}

, the river was the {3-Hearts}

and De Wolfe was eliminated... and not very happy about it, due to the length of time it took Bertazzon to call his all in with top set on the flop.

"That was bad. REALLY bad. Did you know what you were doing there?" he said, on his way out the door.
