Final Table 30 July 2009 “Blowfish”

July 31, 2009

What a game, and what a night?  Another “Poker shuffle” turnout of 62 players.  An evening that started with 7 tables eventually got to the final table at approximately 23h30 ish.  At 00h05 it was down to the final two with Wayne in charge of the big stack.  Jade stood strong for the ladies (four ladies in top 6) but the result was almost inevitable and she eventually went down with Wayne winning with a, 7 high card, hand.
Well done to those who made it to the final table.

Results are as follow:

Winner: Wayne Thomson 100pts ( 2nd win and 3 final tables in four games.  The inform man moves from 17th into 10th position )

2nd: Jade O’brien 80pts ( moves from 27th to 19th, 10 more to go Jade )
3rd: Manuel Mota 70pts ( its game on for Manuel, 70pts moves him into 3rd on the log with 25pts spare )

4th: Liza Clark 60pts ( in only her 2nd game, moves from 179th to top 50, pocket Aces vs 10 4, hard luck Liza )
5th: Vivian Kotze 50pts  ( another player reaching final table at her 1st attempt, well done )
6th: Matty Kemp 40pts ( hanging around in the top 20, good comeback last night Matty )
7th: Trevor Nunes  30pts ( top of the log now in reach with 20pts to go, watch out Ricky!!!!! )
8th: Tom Goodwin 20pts ( well done Tom for reaching his second final table in a row, moves into top 30 )
9th: Brad Cooke 10pts ( also hanging around in top 25 )

Tight-Passive A tight-passive players don't raise or call unless they have a strong hand. This type of player is normally best suited for limit Texas Holdem poker and don't take risks. If a tight passive player calls your raise you have better hope that you have a hand and a half. The great thing about playing against a tight-passive is that when you have have a killer hand and they think they have the best hand-you can get away with murder. Loose-Passive Loose passive players are also known as "calling stations". They call any bet you place and it's best to avoid bluffing these players. They'll very seldom fold once they've seen the flop and they tend to get lucky on the turn and the river. Tight-Aggressive These players will only bluff occasionally. They only play good hands and once they've got that hand they'll bet aggressively. Beware when this player raises he could end up taking a huge chunk out of your stack. This player bluffs now and then and tend to not bluff at the right time. Loose-Aggressive Some of the most famous poker players are loose aggressive. These players have no problem going "all-in", but the best loose-aggressive players will mix up their aggressive and passive play, it's hard to read their hands. They go all-in with a pair of aces or just a simple 7, 3. These are the high-rollers of Texas Hold em poker. I am a loose-aggressive player but its difficult to get players to respect you when they don't understand the game. What type of player are you? '''All-In Stefk''
