The Genting Tour hits London!
« on: March 21, 2012, 09:31:37 AM »
Anyone playing at the Fox Club next week?

It"s slightly cheaper than the UKIPT events at £400. You start with 25k in chips and there"s a 60 minute clock. A little slower than the online league ;)

I"m planning on playing Day 1C (next Friday). Anyone else playing?

Good luck! :)

Thanks Don! Looks like a good option for when I get knocked out on Friday! I"ll stick with Genting on Friday because I like the 60 minute clock.

For thread completeness here is my hendonmob record ...

http://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/player.php?a=r&n=188966

Does that make you the favourite?

I would accept a who has the most chips left at the end of day 1 bet ... but very happy to just fly the APAT flag high ... last longer is a bit weird in that you can re-enter up to the end of level 9 ... it"s quite possible that this safety net might inspire me to to shove lighter as we progress through day 1 ...

I was looking for such spots at the first leg in Birmingham ... but they really were not there and as we got into level 8/9 it becomes an expensive second bullet to be pretty short once again ...

It"s a great structure - but a little bit of a leap early in day 2 - so will be likely to attack or bust late on day 1

Let"s just both make the final table!

Time to run good ...

Watching some of the delayed streaming - all pretty standard stuff ...

Looks like min 438 runners * £400 for £175,200 - though sure to rise with re-entries today/tomorrow.

Hopefully some deep APAT running ...

I see that you got through Day 1C, Louie. We"re you at the Fox? I was one of the ones shuffled off to the Palm, although I"m not complaining! Very nice! I ended up on 100k, and the website says you got through too - great stuff.

I had a great day. Managed to knock out Paul Jackson and Julian Thew. My table seemed to be half full of pros at any one time. Fascinating stuff. Min-raising every other hand. I manged to get a pro to fold KK pre-flop, which caused much amusement on the table when I showed QQ!

Any news on Richard and the others?

See you at the Fox.

Joe.

Interesting hand for Joe Carr-Hill

http://www.gentingpokerseries.com/live/blog/2012/03/30/day-1c-level-11/

A great slog for me - but still alive - had a chance to call what would have been a valued added race with JJ - two all ins in front of me.

It"s super marginal - and would have stood up - but a defeat would have had me back to 10k and a likely re-entry - mmm

Last hand of the day I float 76o in late position vs the serial raiser Jamie Burland ... unfortunately next to act wants to dance his AJ into Burland"s JJ ... flop 772 ... sigh ... of course I possibly shouldn"t be in the hand at all ... but had made quite a few chips floating Burland"s trashier raises ...

13 hours of poker note quite enough cards so off to the Blackjack tables - perhaps all my luck used - for +£830!

Good luck all today.
