#11 HORSE

Ian Thompson has just informed me that he got a straight flush - in PLO8. He says Chris Webber, sat to his right, really enjoyed it...so much so, he paid for it.

True story

#11 HORSE

Kevin O"Hanlon is below half the starting stack already. He"s not concerned - says he was in worse shape yesterday and came back. It"s always a roller-coaster with Kevin, though calling raises with a Stud hand when the game has changed to Razz doesn"t help........

#11 HORSE

Stud  300/150/50

There has been a huge hand between Warren Jones and Massimilliano Diato.

Jon Woodfield completed on 3rd street and Massimilliano raised. Warren, Kevin O"H (bring-in) and Jon W all came along, so it was already a big pot.

Warren led on 4th, Kevin and Jon called, Massimilliano raised and Warren reraised. Kevin and Jon realised they were out of the depth in this hand and gave up. Massimilliano raised one more time, which capped the betting and Warren obviously called. The rest of the hand saw Massimilliano check-calling.

The up-cards were:

Massimilliano

Warren    

Warren showed x, having filled trips on 4th and a full house on 5th. Massimilliano showed   and can"t resist telling Warren "That"s how good you run", like that"s news to the rest of us.

Warren is up to 11.5k after that and Massimilliano is down to 3k.


Warren knows he runs good

#11 HORSE

Omaha Hi-Lo

There has been a big pot between Raunaq Latif and Daniel Anderson. A lot of chips went in on a board of

Daniel had for the second-nut high and a missed good low draw.

Raunaq had , giving him a low straight and the nut low.

Chop!

#11 HORSE

Omaha Hi-Lo

Warren has won another pot with another house of sixes, this time against Andrew Murrie.

Andrew declared two pair, Aces and Jacks,which doesn"t match up to Warren"s hand:
[ ]  

Both say that they thought they were winning the high, but they assumed that they had lost the low. In fact, there is no low and Warren scoops. As he does.

No Chop!

Billy Whicher makes trip nines on 4th street. [ ] .

Neither improves.

We have lost Kevin O"Hanlon.

He looks like this



Just a little less blurry.

Ask around, someone must have seen him and know where he is.
