APAT Scottish Amateur Poker Championship 2012

Helen Godfrey has doubled through Shug Cairnie when her A-Q won the race against Shug"s J-J all in preflop on a 7-Q-A-3-2 board.

Ben Burnhill is like a yo-yo. Firstly he doubled up Donald Cumming when Donald"s Queens easily held against Ben"s Eights. He then 4-bet shoved over the top of a Grant Mushet 3-bet with A-Q. Mushet held A-K but Ben sucked out on the 8-Q-5-5-7 board to take the pot and stack up 80k.

Way to go Helen, TID ! Good luck Dave as well.

Davie B has doubled through John Little with A-A vs John"s A-K. No improvement on the board for either player and Davie is now over 80k.

Davie B has doubled through John Little with A-A vs John"s A-K. No improvement on the board for either player and Davie is now over 80k.

Gogogogo!!

Grant Mushet is, somehow, out.

He shoved all in with A-T but ran into Steven Tracey"s A-K and got no help on the K-5-8-9-J board. Tracey and Mushet had been battling all day and when the chips were counted, Tracey had a small amount more which sent Mushet to the rail.

Eck has just bust with A-J no good vs Q-Q.

19 left, bubble for the points after Chris Cunningham was eliminated by Paul McFarlane.

[KarmaDope]

You"d think Ranking Points were important cos play has grinded to a halt.

Helen Godfrey appears to have doubled up again through Shug, again. She still has less than average though.

19 left, 95k average. Blinds 3000/6000-600.

[KarmaDope]

Aces have been cracked again, this time by the K-7 of Peter Guild, who just doubled to 150k. The unlucky player holding the Aces was Paul McFarlane, who is now running on fumes...

[Matt D]

Big hand from table Burnhill.

Graeme Cornell goes all in utg for 12k. Helen Godfrey calls from button. Alan Horsbrough and Ben Burnhill both call too from sb and bb.

4 see the flop of:



Alan leads out for 30k. Ben and Helen both fold.

Cards on their backs.

Alan: TT

Graeme announces he needs runner, runner, and flips a pair of fives.

Turn , River

and it"s all over for Graeme who leaves us in 19th place.

We are now down to 18 players and the final 2 tables (and ranking points). Level 16, blinds 3000/6000, ante: 600.

Come on matey boy!

[KarmaDope]

Shug raised to 24k only to see James Allan shove for 45k and Paul McFarlane call all in for 25k. Priced in, Shug had to call and was massively behind:

Shug:
James:
Paul:

The board ran out to give Paul the main pot of 85k and James the side pot of 40k. Shug is also on about 50k and grinding...

[Matt D]

We lose James Allan on the last hand before the 15 minute break.

His aipf shove of AT is called by the KK of Peter Guild

Board:

17 players left. We"re now going to count the stacks... brb.
