There are some players on this final table with some serious previous form.

Steve Roderick has an incredible record in APAT main events. This is the sixth time he has reached the final table. He has previously finished second on two occasions and third on two occasions. One of his second places was in the APAT World Championship of Amateur Poker, when there were 425 entrants.

Shirley Cole is a previous APAT Champion, winning the English Championship in 2014. She also finished 12th in the Main event at this year"s APAT World Championship of Amateur Poker. Only three players have ever won two APAT main events. Can Shirley join that very exclusive club?

Dave Burt reached a final table at the WSOP in 2014, finishing 9th out of 2,043 players.

Final table of 10 why?


Unofficial final table of 10 due to space / dealer reasons. We"ll be down to an official final table of 9 following our first departure.


Devalues the final table bubble a bit.

Anyway VBoL to Rodders and Guy.

Guy Gullen raises it up pre-flop. Shirley Cole all-in with 99. And Guy calls.

Guy shows 77. One of which is  7c.

Flop: Club Club Club

Turn: Heart

River: Club

And Shirley finishes in 10th.

Roy Powell ships all-in with  9c 9d and is called by Bash, who has  Qh Qs.

The board doesn"t bring any help for Roy and he is eliminated in 9th place.

Anthony ships pre-flop for 77k and Rodders makes the call from the BB.

Anthony   Kh Kc

Steve     10d 10c

The Flop brings a Ten and the table lets out a sigh of inevitability about Rodders chipping up.

However, the Turn is a K and Anthony doubles up.

5d 10h 2d Kc 3s

Still 8 handed but a few more short stacks than most finals. It"s plenty tough enough though !!!

Still trying to think of something amusing to write in this bit.

Guy opens for 30k and Rodders 3-bets to 75k. Guy calls.

It"s already a very big pot before we reach the Flop.

the Flop is  8s 6h 10c.

Guy checks and Rodders bets 120k.

Guy considers the situation and decides to wait for a better opportunity.

Jason Kemp is all-in on the Button for 107k.

Bash folds the Small Blind.

Bill thinks about it. He has 66k behind, not counting the 16k he has in already for the BB.

He thinks for a while. Jason"s range musty be very wide here. If Bill has something he is considering calling with, he is likely to be ahead. In the end he folds, so it presumably wasn"t that strong............

Bill ships pre-flop for not much.

Mike Gale makes the call in the BB.

Bill   A s Kd
Mike  2h 3s

We see  6c 9s 3c 9h 10h and Bill leaves us, having finished in 8th place.
