First
to exit Dave Tarbett played solidly but was unlucky to find QQ in the hole when
Ulliot had KK. |
 |
The
Pink Lady short stacked and had two callers to her last gasp A-10. Veria picked
her off, making a pair of 5s. |
 |
Ulliot
over-played the table, calling and bluffing too often and was unlucky in a
couple of 50-50 hands. He finally decided to make a play with 9-8 suited, but
found the absolute best opposition, 10-10 (including the suit). Veria
won. |
 |
Sinclair and Alterman, both short stacked, go heads-up, A-4
suited vs 5-5. Alterman the favourite by around 2-1 takes it. |
 |
Veria
makes a fairly weak call with K-9 suited to Boatman's large all-in 5-5. Veria
straights the flop and Boatman walks unhappy. |
 |
The
heads-up dual decides who goes into the final and who goes into the semi-final.
Alterman outplays Veria in a few key hands, notably Q-J against Alterman's Q-2.
Flop is 9-8-2, Alterman bets and Veria flat calls but with an Ace on fourth
street Veria doesn't bet putting his call into question. Alterman finally
takes him out with A-K vs 8-8. The best player at the table
won. |
