EPT London day 1 writeup.

[gobboboy]

If you haven't noticed, the day is still going, but I am not, so I am out. Here is every single hand I played today.

25/50, open to 150 in LP with 88, steal the blinds. Go bobby.

25/50, CO opens, button calls, I call in the bb with KQ, miss, and check/fold to a pot sized bet.

25/50, see a raised multiway flop of QQ3 with 44 and fold to a lot of action.

25/50, raise two loose limpers to 250 on the button with A8cc. BB calls and limpers call. Flop Q93 with one club, checks around. Turn Ah, checks around. River J, checks to the guy to my right who bets 200, I call, bb makes it 1600, we fold.

25/50, I raise As6x in the CO on Clowny Boatman's bb, he calls. Flop T53ss, check, bet 250, call. Turn 3, check/check. River 2, check/check, T2dd is good.

25/50, one limp, I make it 250 with JJ, Boatman calls in the SB, limper calls. Flop QT8, checks around. Turn 5, Boatman bets 400, limper folds, I call. River 5, he bets 700 and my make imo the only mistake I made of the tournament and call. AQo is good.

25/50, Boatman limps UTG like he does every single hand, raise to 200, call in the CO, I call otb with 65hh, sb calls, Boatman makes it 1k and everyone folds.

50/100, raise with 76s to 300 with about 7k in my stack. 6 callers. Nice deck! Flop is void of sevens, sixes and spades and I fold to a ton of action.

50/100, guy raises to 300, three callers, I call with 64cc in the bb. Flop AhQc8c, checks to the CO who bets 600, button calls, I call. Turn Qh, checks around. River Qd, I check/fold.

UTG limps, I make it 400 with KQo, maniac calls, limper folds. Flop J65hhh, I bet 650, he folds. POT NUMBER ONE.

50/100, Boatman limps utg, another limper, I complete with KQhh, bb checks. JT5cc, I check, bb checks, Boatman bets 300, I call, bb calls. Turn 6d, I check/fold to Boatman's pot bet which means he probably had a set or T5 or something.

I go to break with 5550.

75/150, I open to 400 with KTss, maniac calls. Flop KK4dd, I bet 600, he calls. He has like 3500 left. Turn 5, I bet 1100 and he gets all pissed off and folds.

I'm utg+1, utg makes it 500 with like 7k behind. I have 55 next to act with like 6700 and fold. I was proud since who folds pairs preflop live and I would've made the mistake of calling there a few months ago. Vicky Coren calls, flop 975 and they put in a shitton of action without a hand that is better than bottom set.

75/150, I'm in the bb. Active CO opens to 500, I call with Q9cc with like 6400 behind. Flop AAKcc, I check, he bets 600, I make it 2k, he shoves, I call, he has A4ss and turns quads.

Number of pots won preflop: 1.

Number of pots won on the flop: 1.

Number of pots won on the turn: 1.

Number of pots won on the river or at showdown: 0.

Good luck to those still in. If anyone thinks I misplayed one of these hands, let me know. There was one or two spots I could've rr'ed preflop but with my stack size I wouldn't have been comfortable doing it since my table was so good.
