Poker Den - LIVE BLOGGING

[MatchroomPoker]

Good afternoon all - we're off and running in the PartyPoker.com Poker Den: The Big Game III - and the MatchroomPoker.com forum is going to be here for the duration with a live blog of the action!!!

[MatchroomPoker]

On the table first is Roland de Wolfe, David Williams, Sammy “any two” George, Ilios Kamatakis, Chris Parker, Jennifer Tilly, Neil Channing, Robert Williamson III... gonna be plenty of movement early on with these guys (and gal...)

[MatchroomPoker]

OK - we're ready to go after a few technical glitches.... in the meantime, Sammy has already picked up £7,250... nice

[MatchroomPoker]

Parker picks up Queens, Tilly with 10's.... Sammy wants a bit with 4hAh - Park raises $400, and its called... As3sJd flop - Sammy checks, Parker checks, JT checks, 4d on the turn, Sammy bets, Parker chucks his queens, jen dumps it - and Sammy shows... the 4

[MatchroomPoker]

The first party pot - where an extra $1000 is added to the pot - is called by Mad Marty...

[MatchroomPoker]

And it's a $29k pot with Williams raising $2k with 23 and Channing taking it with 65 - looks like there's gonna be plenty of action on the party pots then!!!

[MatchroomPoker]

RdW picks up QA... raises $200, and Ilios raises upto $3k with AK, RdW chucks but Sammy is still in with 9K... but folds it - "you've changed buddy" says Roland

[MatchroomPoker]

The waitress comes in to take the drinks order... co-commentator Ian Frazer says he'll drive Robert home if he has too much!

[MatchroomPoker]

Williams is in trouble here... He's got Q10 but Sammy picks up QJ and the flop is 8Q2... Williams is all-in...

[MatchroomPoker]

2 on the turn, and 8 on the river and Sammy picks it up... Williams is busted

[MatchroomPoker]

And William rebuys for $20k... with Sammy asking if he needs any money!

[MatchroomPoker]

Parker with sevens... Robert with the ducks, Sammy's got 3d4d, Williams J10, Channing 75, Tilly A6 - and that hurt my fingers to write!!!

[MatchroomPoker]

Wow this game moves fast - Channing had clubs and two came by the turn, 31k pot but it ended up split with a 3 on the river

[MatchroomPoker]

Williams and Sammy in seats 2 and 3 are getting involved a lot - and Williams has gone into his shell a bit after his re-buy... and you wouldn't really want Sammy any two George next to you in that situation

[MatchroomPoker]

satg has made $27400 already.... with David Williams $21400 down... the others have been pretty calm so far... so far

[MatchroomPoker]

Parker with the raise $300 with A10... roland calls with 78 offsuit, Williams has 55 and calls, the JK9 flop is checked by all 3, no one really getting much, K on the turn is checked, 10 on the river makes Roland the straight and hie pops a bit in, Williams folds and Parker.......... (that's how long he's waiting here) passes

[MatchroomPoker]

Frazer reckons Sammy has "the kahunas" to be the big winner in the den... only time will tell...

[MatchroomPoker]

Parker is going to be off soon - apparently he's going to a game tonight - perhaps Arsenal v Porto... I'm missing that - no fair :( He wants to pick a hand up but he has to chuck junk as Sammy get 67 and RWIII gets 62 - 98988 and Sammy gets another one... he's pretty much destroyed the table, say Jesse May in the commentary box

[MatchroomPoker]

chris parker leaves the table around 7k down... but he'll be coming back post-match apparently

[MatchroomPoker]

we're on a break by the way... we haven't fallen asleep - that comes in about 10 hours time

[MatchroomPoker]

We've got 7 at the table but that won't stay that way for long - Andrew Feldman is on his way... but he's stuck in traffic

[MatchroomPoker]

I'm currently swimming in jokes from the chaps watching in the green room - hard to concentrate with people chatting... and telling some very blue jokes...

[MatchroomPoker]

Tilly's got 77 on a Q62 flop, and raises the pot to $1500, de wolfe has 34, 9 on the turn sees $1k from Tilly, and Roland gets out

[MatchroomPoker]

Tilly's starting to see some hands now with KQ, Ilios with 10J and Sammy 5hQh, sammy and tilly get the raises in and Ilios doesn't like that, Jen puts 1k in on the 4107 flop which Sammy calls...

[MatchroomPoker]

8h on the turn, and Sammy bungs 3k in there and Jen is trying to get a read here....

[MatchroomPoker]

if i go all in are you going to fold she asks... but she passes... "outplayed once again, outplayed in a shirt LIKE THAT" she says, referring to Sammy's rather individual sense of style...

[MatchroomPoker]

PARTY POT TIME! Nobody's looked at their cards and its $1600 already, channing lobs in $6k with the ducks and its folded round to Sammy ...who probably fancies it... but he folds and Neil grabs the dough - he's won both Party Pots

[MatchroomPoker]

Williams hits the straight with 67 on the 10345 board, de wolfe has J5 and calls, and Williams raises, Channing as sixes and folds, de wolfe now...

[MatchroomPoker]

and bins it - nice confidence boost for Williams

[MatchroomPoker]

Tilly hits the flush draw with 2c5c on the 6cKd8c7c and Williamson finds something with 109... 10s on the river could be trouble though

[MatchroomPoker]

Pretty small $600ish bet from Williamson, Tilly - who's been pretty quiet - lets him off the hook though with a call - she's a wee bit gutted there with that

[MatchroomPoker]

Frazer's giving Channing some stick for his hairdo... Jesse sticks the boot in over his t-shirt (you know, THE t-shirt) but he's picked up $4k so far, so I doubt he'll mind

[MatchroomPoker]

Williamson has KJ, de wolfe with QQ, williams re-raises with AK... busy busy busy

[MatchroomPoker]

Williamson folds, roly calls, 6102 flop is checked, A on the turn is checked, 8 on the river is bet by williams and Roland calls - AK is good baby... comes the call

[MatchroomPoker]

AK for roland with the raise of $225, Sammy has 10K, Williams with 6h5h, Sammy hits the set with 10510 flop, $650 bet from Roland is raised by Williams to $2100, Sammy re-reraises and de wolfe folds...

[MatchroomPoker]

Williams is playing thje hand and the 9 turn is checked and the 5 river is trouble

[MatchroomPoker]

8k from Sammy and Williams bites so Sammy takes another one down...

[MatchroomPoker]

sammy any two has $32175.... very tidy work so far

[MatchroomPoker]

De wolfe with queens, tilly chucks A10... Williams is in the goo according to jesse with 67... but kamatakis has 106 and hits two pair on the 6K10 flop... sammy is still in there - with 37 of course!

[MatchroomPoker]

and kamatakis takes it down - with the rest begging him to show but he's having none of it

[MatchroomPoker]

still no andrew feldman here - that traffic is pretty bad by all accounts, or has he seen the drinks order going in again and he's ready to pounce when theyve had one or two too many?

[MatchroomPoker]

Tilly has popped on the shades... and folds QK to Williams 87 which met a set... nice stuff

[MatchroomPoker]

uh-oh - ok - i nipped to the loo and came back to a J86 flop with Tilly holding J10, Williamson J6 and Sammy J8!

[MatchroomPoker]

Sammy? 15k reraise... tilly folds and Williamson instacalls

[MatchroomPoker]

RWIII needs a 6 or its a rebuy... 5d on the turn, 3c on the river - he bought in for $10k

[MatchroomPoker]

And RWIII rebuys for $10k

[MatchroomPoker]

OK - we're back in after a lil break

[MatchroomPoker]

ah, Barny Boatman has just wandered into the green room - we're actually breaking at 6.30 though for a bit of grub... not a lot happening at the table at the mo...

[MatchroomPoker]

Ilios has Ah10h, Tilly with AdKc... Ks3h9h flop - Ilios wants a count of Jen's chips...

[MatchroomPoker]

Ilios has put Jen all-in here...

[MatchroomPoker]

theyre on their backs, 6d on the turn, 8d on the river and Tilly picks it up

[MatchroomPoker]

Ilios picks up kings, RWIII has AQ - and RWIII is all-in here... on their backs... there's the Ace...

[MatchroomPoker]

10 on the turn, 5 on the turn - RWIII breathes again

[MatchroomPoker]

No rebuy there for Ilios - not a very nice way for that to end the Greek, but he has to leave the Poker Den

[MatchroomPoker]

thanks very much Marty! just finished that post and its a PARTY POT... Williams raises with QA, Tilly 8d9d - 65A flop sees a bet from Williams and he takes the party pot

[MatchroomPoker]

Feldman is coming in and has bought $30,000 to the table...

[MatchroomPoker]

I've gotta stop nipping to the loo - KKA77 board and its Feldman's K5 that takes it with Channing holding A and nothing

[MatchroomPoker]

Williams with 88, Tilly picks up J9, A9 for RWIII - 5AQ flop is bet 1k by RWIII after Tilly folds and Williams bets 3k and wins that

[MatchroomPoker]

Sammy is still the big winner with $40950

[MatchroomPoker]

Williamson raises with JK, called by Sammy with A10... 4KQ flop - Sammy bets small and RW3 calls, 8d on the turn, $3k bet is called... 7d on the river, checked for RWIII to take the pot

[MatchroomPoker]

and it's break time now - one hour folks... come on back though!

[MatchroomPoker]

the players have been fed and watered... jerk chicken and baked beans were on the menu (not together though) -you have to wonder what that will do to the "atmosphere" around the table

[MatchroomPoker]

Ian "the raiser" Frazer parks his backside next to Andrew Feldman... Barny Boatman takes Frazer's place in the commentary box

[MatchroomPoker]

$22k+ pot coming here Williams 10K, Sammy 7J, Tilly 10Q - flop is 9J8.... Jen's got Williams here who calls - Sammy puts Tilly on the flush and bins it - 3 on the turn and just the queen - but its an 8d on the river and David Williams is stuffed by Jennifer who's got over 10k now

[MatchroomPoker]

PARTY POT... KhJh for RdW, and Channing gets the same - KsJc - 51010 flop... CHANNING MOVES ALL-IN - so coolly too - and Roland throws the same hand with a big grin on his face

[MatchroomPoker]

Feldman raises with K10... Williams reraises all in around 12k more with fives

[MatchroomPoker]

Feldman looks in a little bit of pain with the King high and Barny wants him to throw it...

[MatchroomPoker]

and he has called! his K10 are both spades...

[MatchroomPoker]

6sJh2s on the flop, Kc on the turn... he's up and ready to walk... Qh on the river and David Williams is out of the game...

[MatchroomPoker]

bodo sbrzesny takes david williams' place with a $20k buy in - i think we're going to just call him bodo - althiough I'd love to get his name in a game of scrabble... tons of consonants there

[MatchroomPoker]

AhKh for Tilly, Jh7h for RWIII, Js8h for RdW - RdW pops a little bet out after the 1024 flop and JT calls - RWIII bins it - Ad on the turn, roland goes again and JT reraises but RdW wants none of it and gets out - Jennifer Tilly is great nick right now

[MatchroomPoker]

Ad2d for Neil, Frazer has Qc7c, Feldman 3h8s, Jc2h6cKc is Frazers board and Feldman and Channing fold and Ian picks up just over 1k

[MatchroomPoker]

Sammy 5c8c, 6h7h for Andrew, and Tilly QhKh, Channing also interested with 6s8d, Qd2d3d flop is checked around, 5h on the turn, same again, 7c on the river, Sammy bets 400, feldman bins, Tilly calls, channing folds and tilly takes the pot

[MatchroomPoker]

PARTY POT...

[MatchroomPoker]

Can Neil Channing get another one?

[MatchroomPoker]

No, because he folds - de wolfe gets 6A, Sammy 97, Feldman 68 - pot already up to 14k - Roland is on the backfoot with Sammy putting the squeeze on with the raise

[MatchroomPoker]

RdF is all-in though - 30k pot now, Sammy having a think now - all because it's a Party Pot!!

[MatchroomPoker]

and Sammy bins his 97, but Feldman calls with 86...

[MatchroomPoker]

4QA is the flop, 7 on the turn...

[MatchroomPoker]

the river is... the 2 of diamonds and Roland takes the Party Pot - phew!

[MatchroomPoker]

here we go... on a 10JQ flop, Frazer has 10J, RWIII has KJ - 9 on the turn and K on the river for what will be a chop...

[MatchroomPoker]

If anyone on this blog lives near the Tesco's near the studios in East London - dont bother going there to gets some booze... we've just pretty much bought the whole lot for these guys, honestly, you've never seen so many bottles of magners, it's like an orchard in here

[MatchroomPoker]

RdW JQ and flops trips on the QQ10 board, sammy has 76 and Feldman has Ah2h - 7h on the turn and RdW bets 1k to take the pot to a smidge under 3k...

[MatchroomPoker]

theres a call and the 4c on the river sees a bet from RdW who takes it

[ruff justis]

If anyone on this blog lives near the Tesco's near the studios in East London - dont bother going there to gets some booze... we've just pretty much bought the whole lot for these guys, honestly, you've never seen so many bottles of magners, it's like an orchard in here

[MatchroomPoker]

[MatchroomPoker]

[MatchroomPoker]

[MatchroomPoker]

and here comes Phil Laak... $20k buy in

[MatchroomPoker]

RWIII all in with AK vs. Sammy with 10Q on a J64Q board... tough decision here for Sammy

[MatchroomPoker]

but Sammy makes the call - and the A on the river is a lovely sight for RWIII

[MatchroomPoker]

Bodo has 54, Sammy with 35, Frazer K10, Feldman J8, RWIII 88... 2736 board... and Sammy calls out of turn here

[MatchroomPoker]
