APAT European Amateur Championship - Live Update

[MintTrav]

The highlight of my day was twice folding pairs that became quads, once in the tournament and later playing Omaha cash. Even worse, Suzanne went all-in in the tournament after the quads hit.

Anyway, I have Ian Thompson in the Champions last-longer. Just need one more to fall to claim my prize. Come on Ian.

Darren Shallis is out

He raised with J-10 suited, was 3-bet, and called

K-Q-x flop

Darren c-raised all in with the OESD and was called, in a moment of genius (I think) by A-J, which held when Darren"s draw missed

Guilty, as charged   Sorry Darren!

Great tournament, great standard, a little disappointed to crash out with A7 vs A8 and AJ vs QJ, but I had a good run. Look forward to coming to another APAT event! A quick shout out to Asa and Dave Garden for keeping the good humour and chat going throughout too.
