    Just watched Brett play out a very big hand.

    It's opened to 400 in the cut off, & Brett makes it 1,100 on the button.

    Kid in the BB, wearing a horrendous fluorescent orange day-glo t-shirt (why do people wear such bright colours?), gives Brett a long, mean, stare. Brett does not respond, he just looks at the felt. Day-Glo stares at Brett, then stares again. Real mean stare. I nearly wet myself, it was so mean.

    Day-Glo makes it 3,000.

    Cut off folds quickly & carries on with their knitting.
     
    Brett gives it a long think. Then flats. 

    Off we go......

    Flop.....

    Qc - 5c - 3h

    Day-Glo gives the mean stare again. Meannnnnnnn.

    He eventually bets 4,000.

    Brett just stares at the felt. After about a minute, he just calls.

    Turn?

    A menacing Ac.

    So, Qc - 5c - 3h - Ac.

    Day-glo is still giving Brett the mean staredown.

    Day-Glo bets 6,000.

    Again, Brett dwells for a minute, never once giving Day-Glo the eye.

    Call.

    This is a BIG pot now, & Day-Glo has just 6k behind. (Why did he leave 6k behind, looked like shove or check to me given the pot size).

    River, Ks.

    Qc-5c-3h-Ac-Ks


    All the draws got there.

    Bit of an anti-climax, as it goes check check.

    Now, if you can name both hands, you'll win Free Entry into next Tuesday's Turbo Tuesday Main Event. 

    You have ONE HOUR from now to name both hands, & you are allowed two attempts.

    I'll make the rules up as I go along. No arguments, right?

    They are using the old deck from the High Stakes cash game.

    Both players have QQ

    Guys, poker players ONLY please.

    I've had a Memo from the Suits (these are rarely telling me I'm the greatest.....) saying I can't keep blowing their promo budget.
     
    I've told them "don't worry boys, your money is safe".
     
    40 minutes left to get that £11 Free Entry from Sky Poker.

    Has our man got pocket 5s and the nasty orange villain got AQ off?

    Let's hope so anyway 

    BTW Tikay, great work on the videos and updates.

    Brett's got pocket 6s and the other guy's got a 5 to give him a pair of fives.

    Thanks for the reminder, Andy, I was supposed to post yesterday's Videos, too.

    Guess I best go do that now.

    Appreciate the kind words, really do.

    Ryan just mentioned in dispatches on the updates, rivering a straight to get back to near starting stack.

    Seeing as we're allowed 2 guesses I'm putting Brett on pocket 3s and the orange fella on too much tango and a pair of jacks.

    These reads may explain why I'm posting this from my sofa rather than the Rio.

    ;-)
