APAT Forum Championship - FISO Entry

[UncleTupelo]

Just seen Kizkiz on the TV , still there at the start of level 3, having said that, only 8 players out of 200 gone so far!

Which channel/link? I'm struggling to find any coverage of this!

I did find some non-live videos here though:

Thanks for that, Unc! FISO still in with a shout then, good to know . I've watched nearly all of those videos and haven't seen a FISO shirt yet - what colour is it?

I think it is black - but I have looked and seen no FISO shirt either. Hopefully one of em will post a bit later. Not sure if Blackpool is an internet cafe/public wifi type of place though!

Kiz is right at the start, in the foreground with a guy in bright orange in the background. He's wearing a dark t-shirt I think.

Board 9 3 K 4 A

and Pat and Ton depart 50th/49th followed by John Bowers from THM in 48th"

[adlad]

36 players left, not much mention of FISO players, so I'm hoping 4 still remain?

[RomynPG]

Tom Broadbent - Fiso - 49th (as previously reported)

Dan Thursfield - Fiso - 28th (reported at 01:17am)

[steviep]

Poor guy, but well done so far guys. You'll have to play your best game today, but there's hope!

[adlad]

Anyone know what the starting blinds are when day 2 starts?

EDIT: I just worked out that the average stack is 83,536, so unless the blinds are much higher than I expect, player strategies can be like this:

- Mike has just above the average, and should try to keep that way, winning small pots primarily and hopefuly being the silent type that creeps their way up

- Spirey is the chip leader on his table and has a good deal over the average. He can either choose to play tighter than usual or try to bully the table a bit, but like Mike, it would probably be best not to get into too much action, winning only pots where there is a large value:risk ratio.

- kizkiz is the shortstack on his table, although there are four others who are also quite shortstacked - so expect plenty of allins soon. It's a tricky spot, but kizkiz just needs to wait for the right situation to move allin - although he can't leave it too late or his stack will be too small to give him a fighting chance. Preferably when he does shove, he's the first one to shove and in LP. However, position might not matter much, as I'm sure he will get at least one caller with his small stack size, whenever he chooses to shove.

Good luck to all 3!

Very well done! I will be following it again today. If they have one of these around London I would love to take part.

[Gravesy]

They finished with them on 3,000/6,000 last night so i'd imagine something like 5,000/10,000.

Good work guys and good luck today.

In that case, the Harrington M's of the remaining FISO players are as follows:

Mike = M: 6.33

Orange Zone

Your M is now between 6 and 10. Here you have lost the ability to ‘resteal’ and your stack is dwindling, you must now play aggressively to stay alive in the tournament.

Spirey = M: 8.14

Same as above, but at the higher end of the orange zone


kizkiz = M: 1.17

Technically, kiz is in the 'Red Zone'...

M is 5 or less. Here you have lost all flexibility if you play a hand it should be all-in, try to be first into a pot to maximize the chance opponents will fold.

but really, removing any chips would result in the 'Dead zone'!

M of less than one: Here you are on the tournament critical list – any high cards are good enough for an all-in move, but expect to be called!

[adlad]

With each remaining team member now guaranteed at least 26 points, the Team Championship currently looks like this. I think we can expect plenty of change throughout today though!

Here's a photo of the FISO team:

(Hover over the bottom and pause the slideshow)

I must say, you lot are more normal-looking than most of the other teams . Any chance we can get some names to the faces?

[Mike_]

Mrs_ here
Names to faces. Seated in the middle with long sleeves is _Mike_ next to him in the middle, I think in Kizkiz (Kieran). At the end on the back row, with the impressive amount of hair, is DJnutty and I think that is King Pasty next to him.

[RomynPG]

Thanks Mrs_

Would be good to fill in the others


? ---------- ? ---------- Karrde ---------- ? ---------- Cornish_Pasty ---------- DJNuttie



? ---------- KizKiz? ---------- Mike_ ---------- ?


Those T-shirts look pretty good

Edit
T-Shirt sizes were

Spirey - XXXL
norvern muppet, djnuttie, thetruth4447 - XXL
nffc, kizkiz - XL
Pasty, Mike_, Karrde - L
djshawk - M

So I suspect front row far right is djshawk and Spirey may be back row 2nd from left

[adlad]

Looks like 23 players remaining. Money starts from 19th, so I hope none of ours are unfortunate enough to be the bubble boy!

[adlad]

22 now...

Dunk of blonde out "on a bluff" knocked ohut by Paul bristol of Bristol OUT 23rd

[Gravesy]

I'd say djshawk is third from the left at the back, his t-shirt is the smallest. They're down to the last 20 players now o they're in the money at least

[Spencer4]

Karrde's the guy under the spotlight at the back, the one that isn't Pasty.

[Gravesy]

New video on the nutz.tv, reckon FISO are one of the 3 favourites to win the event

Go on lads!
