Roland de Wolfe - Out.

Sat, Dec 6th 2008, 00:32 by Reporter

After a big pre-flop raise by Roland and a call by James Dempsey (just over 10,000 in the middle) we see a flop of 8 2 3.

The money goes in (Roland had only a few chips left, after pre-flop betting) and the players show their hands.

Roland: J10
James: Pocket 7’s

Turn: K

River: A

And Roland is eliminated from the tournament.

James Dempsey is now on around 80,000 chips.

Channing tries an interesting angle

There’s 1200 in the pot and Neil Channing and Roland de Wolfe are the two involved.

The flop:

4 7 5

Roland checks and Neil declares “check” an instant before he releases the 1000 chip in his hand and throws it over the line. Roland confirms with the dealer that the check stands.

The turn the 3 sees the same occur! It would be interesting to see what would have happened if this wasn’t between two mates, or Roland not so laid back a person.

The river is the 2 and this time the checks are by the book. Roland shows A K to take the pot.

Roland de Wolfe bets out 2,000 into a raggy ten high board on the turn, just the sort of board which could have given him two pair, and Neil gives it up. De Wolfe picks up 2500 chips or so.

Roland gains a few chips.
