We"ve hit the heady heights of level 21. Blinds 10k/20k/2k.

[MintTrav]

It"s a big pot.

Guy opens to 60k in mid-position and Steve calls immediately to his left. Everyone else clears off.

The Flop is  

Guy c-bets for 60k and Rodders calls.

Turn  . Guy moves all-in for 107k and Rodders calls quickly.

Guy    
Steve  

Guy gets up and starts getting ready to leave.

River  

Guy hits a flush and takes 227k from Steve.

[MintTrav]

Steve opens for 40k from the Cut-Off.

Jason moves all-in from the Button for 183k total.

Is one of them making a move or do they have genuine hands?

Steve makes the call.

Jason  
Steve    

Everyone misses:  

With the blinds and antes, Jason increases to 400k and Steve take a second hit in succession.

[Matt D]

Into the final 3 of the Omaha side event: Paulie Davis and Dan Dennehy are 2 of those 3.

[MintTrav]

Steve had a massive lead a few minutes ago. After the first loss, he was still the chip-leader and is still second after the latest blow, but the stacks have evened out considerably.

550k Guy
480k Steve
400k Jason
300k Dave
150k Anthony
100k Mike
 80k Bash

[MintTrav]

Bash moves all-in from early position for 76k

Guy calls from the BB.

Bash  
Guy  

The board doesn"t help Bash and he is knocked out in 7th place, winning £340.



Bash has been in good form lately, finishing 6th in the Cardiff GUKPT £500 event and 3rd in the Grosvenor Swansea 25/25 in the last couple of months.

I guess APAT tournaments are tougher proposition, but another excellent result.
