So the eighth leg of the Grosvenor UK poker tour has started in Plymouth. After the a previous post about a qualifying tournament we ran, the winner of that has made a good start. That person is Carl Dawson, and sits 9th on the chip leader board after day one.
Two hands saw him build this stack, first his favourite pocket fours hitting trips to beat poket queens all in to double up. Later Dawson beat off pocket aces with pocket 7’s. Although no all in shout was called, Dawson hit trips on the flop and then later quads on the turn. This Provided the oppertunity to bet bet big on the flop in confidence, get called and get paid, before his opponant folded with the second 7 on the board after the turn.
Average remaining stacks are around 27,000.
Paez, Raul 111525
Hewston, Jonny 70550
Bansi, Praz 61975
Davies, Alan 55325
Sarmias, Minos 42675
O’Reilly, Scott 41625
Wilkinson, Adam 41525
Chattha, Sunny 39550
Dawson, Carl 36875
Good luck to one of the Exmouth representatives, and lets hope his luck holds up throughout the course of the weekend.
Monday Update :: Sitting 17th after the two qualifying days, Dawson was caught early on playing KQ out of position. Well done for getting to the final weekend though.
