Ben "Milkybarkid" Grundy comments on his WSOPE experiences.

WSOPE £2500 HORSE

I busted out late in the evening of day one in level five....

I started well and by the end of level 2 I must have been one of the chip leaders with around 20000 chips. It was fun to play all the games as well..... I had a disastrous level three I went an entire orbit of the games without winning or chopping a single pot it was brutal. That put me back to my starting stack.

I got back up to 20000 chips again in level 4 and here is how I lost a chunk of them...

Razz 400/800

(A)(2)3 I three bet against (x)(x)6

I pull a Q... he gets a K

I bet again and get called

I pull a 9... he gets a J

I bet again and get called

I pull a 6... he gets an 8

I bet and get called

Last card no improvement for my 9 low and my opponent made an 8 low on the river!

I also lost a big pot in the same level when I three bet prelop in Omaha Hi/Low with AA3T double suited. It flopped what appeared a monster for my hand 5s6s7h as I had the As3s.. I bet and got called. Turn a 5d.. I bet and got raised. I called. River a blank 3 which was the worst card in the pack for me and I got scooped by 248J lol.

Both those pots were around 10000-12000 and I didn't recover after them.

It's the £5000 PL Omaha tomorrow. Please can I run good just one time......

WSOPE £5000 Omaha

Had a massive rollercoaster day going down low in chips then up to about 65000... felt like I was in good shape with double the average the took two big coolers.

400/800 - Durrrr from Full tilt made it 2000 to go I called with A6QT double suited and the small blind called too. Flop A63 giving me top two and the second nut flush draw. Small blind went bet 3500. Durrrr called. I reraised the pot as the small blind had just 3000 more and I wanted the pot HU. Durrrr called with AAxx. Main pot was 22000. Side pot 35000 ish. Turn brought me the flush though the small blind had the nut flush... I was happy to win the side pot. River paired the board!

400/800 - I made it 2000 from early position with AA57 with one ace flush draw in clubs. Two callers. Flop 2c4sKc. First guy to speak leads out for the pot. I reraise the pot to 24000 as I am at least 40% against any had he can have plus I've got fold equity. He calls with a set, and pairs the board on the turn.

Was really low after that and couldn't make a comeback.

Congrats to Buzzer on winning the £2500 HORSE.....
