APAT UK Amateur Championship: Live Update - Day Two

[KarmaDope]

Stuart Hopkin doubles up again, through Kevin Davies again. It all went in on a K-Q-3-5 board, and Kevin held K-9, but Stuart had K-3 and the blank river gives Stuart the pot...

...then as I type that, Tikay shouts "ALL IN", and Stuart"s all in again! This time against Rob Plaistow, and its a classic race between Stuart"s A-K and Rob"s J-J. The 2-8-K-7-Q board gives Stuart the 850k pot and the chip lead!

Rob has just moved all in...

[KarmaDope]

...and is OUT. He pushed from the SB with K-2 as it was folded to him, but Simon Turton called with A-3 from the BB. No help for either player on the board and Rob heads home in 5th place, taking home £600.

Thats quite an exit from monster chip leader to out in not very long

[KarmaDope]

Simon Auckland doubles to 640k after raising UTG with A-6, and getting re-raised al in by Kevin Davies who had A-K. The 6 on the flop left Davies needed a King...which never arrived. Davies has not very much left...

[KarmaDope]

Next hand Kevin Davies pushes all in from the SB. Simon Auckland calls blind from the BB and flips 4-2 to Kevin"s A-8.

The board: 5-9-10-7-2, which means that Kevin Davies is OUT in 4th, taking home £600.

[jon_garrett]

Hey, get your own hand Auckland. 4-2 is mine!

[KarmaDope]

*MASSIVE HAND ALERT*

Stuart raises to 115k. Simon A then re-raises to 250k! Simon T gets out of the way in the BB and Stuart flat calls.

Flop: J-6-A

Simon A checks, Stuart pushes all in! Simon A goes into the tank for a good minute before calling!

Simon A: A-7
Stuart: K-Q

The turn brings a 6, and Tikay is reminding everyone "only a 10 will do..." and thats exactly what comes! The 10 appears on the river, and cripples Simon Auckland. Stuart is now chip leader.

[KarmaDope]

Simon Auckland is OUT in 3rd place, winning £1,250 and a Bronze Medal!

Simon pushed with 8-8, and was called by the other Simon, Simon Turton, who held A-K. The board read 4-K-10-A-Q, giving Simon T the 2 pair and the pot, and sending Simon A to the rail in 3rd.

[KarmaDope]

We are now heads up.

Stuart Hopkin vs Simon Turton.

One of these players will walk away with the APAT Gold Medal, the Trophy, the £3,500 and the GUKPT seat. Don"t go anywhere!

I"m already predicting that this will last longer than the Rich Offless heads up in Walsall!

[KarmaDope]
