Graham ‘Mooch’ Gorton Wins Season 17 Week 3, Mark England 2nd, Simon Smith 3rd

BCPC Season 17, Game 3 – Friday 13 January 2017

Close at the top going into game 3, so a chance for someone to pull away.

The league table at the start of the night:

Position Name Points
1 Kevin Berrie 15
2 Amy Coshan 15
3 Matt Wilson 13
4 Nic Rawlings 12
5 Matt McKinlay 12
6 Tony Trippier 10
7 Adam Smith 10
8 Steve Healey 8
9 Graham Gorton 6
10 Hitendra Patel 6

Tonight’s game

It was a night of bad beats, Matt Cromwell inflicting most of the damage. K9 > 33 on a 9939A board being just one example.

It was also a long game – Mooch and Mark England eventually got heads-up and at the final hand both players had around 12 big blinds. It was Mooch who emerged triumphant though, his K5 beating Mark’s A9 (or something like that).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So the points scorers on the night were:

Position Name Points
1 Graham Gorton 15
2 Mark England 12
3 Simon Smith 10
4 Liam Pickering 8
5 Nic Rawlings 6
6 Matt Cromwell 5
7 Matt Wilson 4
8 Tony Trippier 3
9 Amy Coshan 2
10 Steve Healey 1

Leaderboard after game 3:

Position Name Pts
1 Graham Gorton 21
2 Nic Rawlings 18
3 Amy Coshan 17
4 Matt Wilson 17
5 Kevin Berrie 15
6 Simon Smith 15
7 Tony Trippier 13
8 Mark England 12
9 Matt McKinlay 12
10 Adam Smith 10

So it’s still pretty tight at the top – the next game will be crucial – a big result for any in the top 4 could see them take a big advantage. Could Mooch take down his second title?

Cash game

Brilliant as always. I think I won 3 hands without knowing I’d won! [Embarrased-face emoticon]
