Trip Report...
This is pretty much a cut and paste from the notes I made through the two days so, apologies for any mistypes that I might have missed.
It includes the warty hands too.
My first hand, Button AKo
3bet to 650 called by cut off (orig raiser) and chk check Raggy flop
He checks rag. Turn I bet he folds
Call raise pre with Ac8c four to flop
flop A high I bet they fold
QQ 3bet to 650 from SB over min raise, three to flop
AKQ all check
K turn I bet WHY?? They all fold
Call min raise pre with 10 J flop Q10 Q, he bets small I call, turn, Q he bets small I call, river A he bets small I sigh call to be shown KQ
Two hands later...
I cold 4 bet from SB over 300, 850 I make it 2325 with KK
3 better calls, flop A x 10 I check he bets 6k.... I fold (he told me late yesterday that he had JJ ... My stack was awkward at the time and calling would be committing me to the hand whatever the run out)
26725 at first break
Guy to my right (seat 1, I"m seat 2) is doing a lot of limping in and calling raises
First hand post break I raise KQo to 650 flop xQxhh, he check calls 900 and folds to a bet on J turn

Club on river to give me the lot
Donkey moment part 1

@500/1000/100 I raise AA to 2200 and seat 3 3bets to 7700. I flat leaving just under pot sized bet and plan to get it in on any non A flop. X JJdd I shove he calls with AdKd I hold

BB bets 25k into a side pot of 1200 and proudly flips 9 10 for the turned nut straight...

Utg+2 to 12500
Fold
Me to 2600 leaving 41200 behind
Folds to utg+2 who obligingly shoves QQ
I hold
163000
I open mid pos to 8500 with
yeah I know, but SB was away serving an orbit penalty. BB is chip leader and flats saying I call any two even if you show me Jacks..
Flop is J 8 7 he checks I bet 8500 he calls
Turn is a J we check
River A he checks I bet 14500 40% ish of pot
He tank folds...
@2500/5000/500
I open AQhh to 11000 BB calls
Flop 835 he checks I bet 9000 he raises to 22000
I call and we check turn and river
He has A5... ****ing sigh
15100 @ break
Bubble period was slow and involved me folding a succession of low unconnected off suit hands
Table move when bubble burst and other than one raise of AJ and fold to a 3bet ( he showed QQ) nothing much happened until I find AK utg and raise to 17k from 150
SB shoves for 102 and I call
He tables A9 and spikes a 9 on the turn...
I shove blind utg next hand and everybody passes... Sympathy maybe?
That let"s me fold my BB and SB and we make the next pay jump for an extra £200 before shipping KS
and running into the same villain as before with QQ again.
Flop QJ6 turn 10 giving me hope, river 7 and we"re done.
