Hi all. Let"s get ready for the starting event of the Belgian Amateur Poker Tour !!!

For our kickoff, APAT.be will be having the very first official Pineapple tournament in Belgium !!!
Together with you we wonder about the popularity of the game but we are sure that you will love it a lot. Especially since it"s an APAT Event.

In brief the rules:* Pineapple is being played almost alike NLHE with the only difference of getting 3 cards dealt.
* These three cards make your starting hand and preflop betting occurs based on these 3 cards as in NLHE.
* After the betting round is completed you get to see a flop.
* Now here"s the difference with NLHE. IN NLHE the betting takes place immediately. In Pineapple the remaining players first need to muck one of their hole cards based on the flop info, starting with the player on the SB and ending with the Dealer Button.
* Then play continues as we know it in NLHE with flop, turn and river action.

It"s as simple as that.

Don"t forget the tournament tomorrow starts at 21:00 local time at the Casino de Spa. We are expecting you !!!!

MORE UPDATES ON PLAYERS, HANDS, PAYOUTS, as of 16/01 at 21h00 !

Good luck with this. Should be great.

Quick question. When all the players muck a card, do the mucked cards get shown to the table or is it done face down ?

Just thinking ahead to the WCOAP London

We have just started our Crazy Pineapple tournament.

Players start with 8.000 chips and 20 minute blinds. There is 4 levels of late registration; and players are allowed to have 1 re-entry.

This is the very first Crazy Pineapple tournament in Belgium, let"s see how it goes!

The very first hand we have an all in situation!

On the AKJ flop, 2 players move all their chips in the middle... AA vs KJ.
No help for the KJ-hand, but he will fire another bullet!

Joachim Wallaert has donated some chips to Niki Raskin.

Action is already at the river 6Q834. Joachim checks and Niki bets 1050 into the pot. Joachim calls but muccks when he sees that Nick flopped two pair.

Not the best start for our THE RED JACKS TEAM PLAYER !!!

A 4th table is opening up... looks like we currently have 35 players.
There"s also a local tournament running; a few players that are busting that event, are registering for the Pineapple.

In the field we have some players that are chasing for the 2014 POTY ranking:

Niki Raskin - 5th place
Ken Vandeplas - 8th place
Joachim Wallaert - 15th place

A win tonight would see them near the top of the ranking; Niki Raskin can even take the lead.

We also have Rieuwert Fleer from Holland; he is the current Razz World Champion and will be looking to defend his title in the 2015 WCOAP in London!

Nick Stas is doing what he needs to do.

900 in the pot preflop and Nick Stas in SB is getting action from both Ken Vandenplas UTG and the Button.

Flop comes at Tc

. Nick and Ken both check and the button bets 550, called by Nick but not by Ken.

Turn brings the

and Nick checks again. Once more the button bets. 750 this time, once more called by Nick.

River comes at

. No card to help either one of them it seems and both players check. Nick would have hoped his opponent continued his betting since he holds AcQc versus T6 off. Nice pot Nick

Joachim Wallaert just told me he could see a free flop at the button with 256. Flop shows 256, all spades. He throws away the deuce and gives up at the betting round scared for the flush. Runner runner deuces on the board. That"s bad luck but hey, what card would you discard when flopping three pairs? Poker is still a bit gambling I guess.

Joachim is being a bit unlucky.

We get to see a cheap flop 7 handed. -> Th

Player 1 checks and Joachim makes it 800 to go. MP player raises to 1800 and gets called by the player in first position. Joachim at his turn pushes his stack in for almost 4k, gets reshoved by the MP player who get"s reshover by the P1 player.

Three way allin and all three discard one of their hole cards.

P1: shows Qh6h for a flushdraw
Joachim shows KQo for a flopped straight
MP shiws Jacks and a set.

Turncard

Rivercard

and Player 1 takes down the pot.

It"s CRAZY pineapple guys. Joachim will use his re-entry for a second attempt and our teamplayer remains in the game for now.

Small dealer problem at Ken"s table. We picked it up when the dealer was choppin up the chips between the three player.

Flop was 9Q6A6 and Kan held QQ vs KK vs J9s (no flush there)

When distributing the chips the dealer shoves them all to the KK player while Ken won the main pot. A little count occurs first to set things straight and Ken states he played 3.5k preflop and he should get a 3 fold of that. In the end he gets almost 11k to play after the break and he"s a happy player.

Re-entry period is over now. After the break we play for the real deal !

Quadran666 (Christoff Apat.be) · « **Reply #11 on:** January 16, 2015, 21:32:43 PM »

First level after the break will be 200/400 CHIPCOUNTS:

Joachim Wallaert: 9.1k (re-entry)
Ken Vandenplas: 10k
Niki Raskin: 5.1k
Nick Stas: 12.3k
Rieuwert Fleer: 12.6k (re-entry)
Kris Thys: 10.3k

We"ll soon know how many entries and re-entries we are having and then decide on the prize money.

And off course player of the year points:
2014 ranking -> 5 to 1
2015 ranking -> 9 to 1

Ken Vandeplas is now playing 25.000.

With blinds 200-400/50, the UTG raises to 1000. The next player, an older guy, goes all in for 3.100.
Ken finds QQ4 and makes the call. The original raiser calls as well.

Both players check down the K9689 board. Ken wins the pot with his QQ.
