WCOAP Day 8 - Events #15 Cash (1B), #17 Main Event, #18 Pot Limit Omaha

[Des]

Welcome back to Aspers folks. 

Today we see the start of the Main Event at midday, with the PLO kicking off at 6pm and day 1b of the Cash Championship starting at 9pm.

I"m sure we"ll see a lot of familiar faces today, so it should be a cracker.

Dann Williams will be running the live update throughout the day.

Just kicked off with 161 players already, with 2 hours of late reg to boot.

Will update a seat draw, as and when it arrives.

[s4ooter]

APAT Stalwart (or Stool) Asa McGrath has already called an all in....yes yes its level 1

Facing an UTG open (125) and 2 peels, Asa peels T9o on the button.  The BB makes up, and 5 see the 567r flop.

All players check the flop, the turn bringing the 8 and completing the rainbow board.

With 675 in the pot, the BB bets 200, the UTG OR then makes it 600.....its folds to Asa who makes it 1600 with the nuts.
The BB opts to fold and the OR peels.

With the pot at 4075 we see a Q on the river (board - 5678Q)

UTG makes it 2500, Asa makes it 6k, UTG ships his stack over the line, as does Asa..................

Asa flips his T9o with a twinkle in his eye, UTG also flips T9o and the dealer has the joy of chopping the pot.

Adam Sharples informs us of his thoughts on his table draw.

Adam Sharples ‏@sharpleaUK  
APAT Main Event time...usual sick table draw! #apatpoker

So i took a look.  He is joined by BlueBlood Pokers Dawn Cooke, Irelands Kevin O"Hanlon and recent Razz and Crazy Pineapple FT, Simon Brooke.

Dawn has her iPad at the ready, practising her OFC skills and hoping the Main Event will help her recoup her OFC losses last night.

We have the 1st bustout of the comp, as i am informed by Defending Champion Tristan Chaplin, the action took place on his table.

After a 4b preflop we see Daniel Levy and Adam Malak get all the chips in the middle on an Axx flop.

Daniel shows AJo vs Adams QQ.....No 2 outer for Adam, and he is the first to depart.

Tristan also informs me that he lost about 4k with KK v 45 on a 44x board, but is still sat comfortably with 11k

Looking round the room I can"t see anyone capable of winning this other than Simon Brooke... If you don"t know him the guy is an absolute legend.... and very very attractive. Good luck sir, I wish I was more like you!

IT DOESNT MATTER HOW THE BOARD RAN OUT!!!

HJ with TT scoops the lot!!

[s4ooter]

Just back from the break.

Blinds 100/200 and 194 players regged so far....can we hit 200? I think so.

Will do a chip count browse, post ITT for players you want me to find.

Interesting hand on Table 2.

Joseph Craig opens to 400 (100/200) in MP, CO peels and Simon Brooke 3b the button to 1350.  With the action back on Joseph, he elects to reopen the action to 3300.  Our peeler gets out of the way and Simon calls.

Pot 7300.

Flop:  

Joseph leads for 3700.....Simon dwells.....dwells and folds.

Joseph Craig up to 23k.

Table 2 could be one to watch, as it seems that there are some meta games starting and many vying for the role of Table Captain.
