August 9, 2015: Kelli
Cera, Dean Hilts and Darren Kennedy chop Run-It-Twice Tourney
The
inaugural Run-it-twice tourney was held last Friday and right from the first
time we had to run-it-twice you knew it was going to be fun and interesting.
Ashley and Kal got it all with Ashley having top set of Kings vs Kal’s flush
draw. We ran it twice and somehow Kal hit the flush both times. The tourney
progressed at a regular rate until we got to the Final Table when it seemed
impossible to bust anyone. All-ins kept getting chopped up. Dave Yee who
ultimately went out in 10th place got it all in 3 ways and lost
leaving himself with one chip. He then got it all in 3 ways and chopped again,
and since he was not closest to the button he still had just one chip. Again he
would get all in and chop before finally losing on the 4th go. It
was an amusing series of hands.
With
35 players and 14 rebuys we ended up with 49 buy-ins. When all was said and
done the following were our winners: Kelli Cera ($1050), Dean Hilts ($1050),
Darren Kennedy ($1050), Lorna Acker ($500), Everett Wicklund ($400), Mario
Baptista ($350), Guy Bottin ($250), Eric Chong ($250).
July 22, 2015: $100 Buyin
Run-It-Twice Tourney Friday August 7!
Friday,
August 7th at 7pm at Eaglequest Coyote Creek in the Arizona Room.
$100
Buyin, run-it-twice tourney.
This
means that anytime there is an all-in and a call the remaining cards will be
run twice resulting possibly in split pots. Same start time as usual but you
will get 15,000 chips (instead of 12,000) as I expect we will have less than
the normal 70-90 players. One re-entry allowed until end of level 4 as usual.
Please
invite your friends and let's get 40-50 players. If you know you are coming
please let me know by responding to this email.

July 11, 2015: Brent Senko
and Brant Taylor’s WSOP Main Event Runs!
The beginning:
Today
at noon Brent Senko will begin his Main Event Run in the Amazon Room of the Rio
All Suites Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas at table 403, seat 4. I will be
heading down to the Rio shortly to see what his starting table looks like and
will give you some updates throughout the day via twitter and a summary email
here. In addition Brant Taylor is also playing the Main today.
Good
luck Brent and Brant!!!!
Early Results from Day 1:
So
first 6 hours I the Main saw Brent win a nice pot with 55 on 5677 board to get to
34500. Some bad things happened and he was down to 20k ish. He won a nice pot
where he was all in but not called with trip jacks. And as dinner came around
he sat at 24500. He just KO'd a shortstack with AQ>AK aipf. He also ha a
hand where it went 700, call, Bret raised to 2200 and they both folded AK. Try
may have pegged him as tight.
Brant
on the other hand missed a lot of boards and was as low as 4500, but picked up
Aces for a double plus. He sat at 14,600 at dinner time.
Day 1 Summary:
Both
Brent and Brant made it through Day 1 and onto Day 2. Brent has 43175 and Brant
has 24700. They started the day with 30,000 chips and the average going into
Day 2 is 43,700.
Brent
had a fairly smooth day fluctuating between 18,000 and 46,000 ending near his
highpoint. A few highlights included knocking out an Italian pro who was
shortstacked when Brents AQ outflopped the Italians AK. He won his first nice
pot earlier in the day with 55 on a 5677x board which was the first time he got
above the starting stack. There were some pitfalls and he fell into the teens
before at one point pushing all in against two opponents with trip jacks but
not getting called. I checked out his table and did not recognize any of his
players but he had 3 super aggressive players at the table and one absolute
wild card. The agros were all directly on his right which was very fortunate
and Brent was able to navigate the pitfalls to make it thru the day in great
shape.
Brant
had a much tougher day dropping as low as 4,000 in chips before fighting back
and then finding Aces in a perfect spot to get a more than double up and back
to 14,000 at dinner break. Post dinner break he would run it up to over 40,000
before sliding back to end the day at nearly 25k.
The
blinds for tomorrow start at 250-500 so Brant has 50 BBs and Brent 86. Both are
in great shape.
The
tourney drew 6420 entries and 4389 made it thru Day 1. Day 2A and Day 2B take
place today and Brant and Brent come back tomorrow for Day 2C.
With
1000 making the money and sitting on an average stack, Brent has a 1 in 4.4
shot at making the money at this point. He's focused, playing his game and
knows how to be patient. Lets hope that continues and he also gets a few
favourable runouts in his quest to be the first league winner to make Day 3 and
the first league winner to cash the Main Event.
His
Day 2 table includes Dennis Phillips and Doug Lee among others so there will be
some stiff competition. I didn't recognize any of the players on Brant’s Day 2
table.
And
post day celebrations were fun as Brent and I hopped in with Calen 'BigWheel'
McNeil and Chris Back to go celebrate with Tacos and Beer. We literally hung
out with the who's who of the BC poker world there and at Musashi. Along with
Calen, Chris, Brent and I, we had Matt Jarvis, Kyle Ho, Jonas Mackoff, MD
Hughes, Ben Wilinovsky, Maria Ho, Martin Malone, and 6-7 of the top British
players. When we went around the table checking chipcounts and Brent realized
he had more chips than about 80% of these beasts of the northwest poker world
going into Day 2 it was a good feeling
I
am heading home today having not won a satellite to ply in the Main and thus
wont be there to rail him to the promised land but he knows we are all rooting
hard for him and Brant from afar...
Day 2:
Brent
is off to kickass starting Day 2. After first level (2 hours) he built his
chipstack up from 43,175 to 54,425. And in the hour since then he has climbed
up to now have a stack of 65,750. The man is trending in the right direction.
In
one hand Doug Lee raise and Brent reraised with AK. Doug folded.
Shortly
after that Doug raised to 1300, 2 callers and Brent reraised to 4800 with AA.
Doug called and then folded to a 5200 flop bet.
Brant
started poorly dropping to 6000 chips but again his resiliency is strong. He
picked up Aces and got it up over 10k then QJ in BB. Flop of JJ8. He raised the
cbet and is sitting up at 18,750.
They
keep on going. Currently there are just under 3000 players left meaning the
average stack should be around 60k. 1000 of those 3000 make the money.
My
unfortunate duty to report that Brent has busted out of the big one with about
2050 players remaining.
In
his words:
"I'm
out lose 3 big hands AK <AQ when a A flops Q on river, next raise AJ on the
button AJ6 flops dds runs out diamonds and big stack goes all in have to fold,
next raise all in 20bb with QQ small blind has AA and I'm out"
Great
run Brent! I know it hurts, but you did extremely well and should be proud of
yourself. That's a long grid against some tough opponents.
Day 3 Brant Taylor:
Just
a quick FYI that Brant went into Day 3 with 44,500 chips. He tripled up in the
first 5 hands of the day to get to 129k by winning with a set of 9's vs a set
of 6's and following that up by flopping the nut flush and getting 2 streets of
value. He dropped down to 55k then won a flip with 88>AK where another
player folded QQ. That got him to 119k and he built it up to 140k. Then it was
some up and down action but he is currently at 60k after having to fold AK and
TT to 4 and 5 bets preflop. Blinds are at 1200/2400 (25BBs) and they are about
115 from the money now with 1115 remaining. There is a very good chance he
could crack the money in the next 2 hours.
Massive
heartbreak as Brant went out THREE from the money when his QQ ran into KK.
Unbelievable. I feel for you Brant. Tough one but yet another great run by a
die harder. 1003rd of 6420 of the best poker players the world has to offer.
June 22, 2015: More WSOP
Updates
Event
30: $1000 NLH: Chris Fraser did end up busting out on Day 1 unfortunately after
dinner break
Event
43: $1000 Super Seniors: Colin Genge ended up skipping the Seniors in favour of
the Super Seniors but was unable to make much happen and busted early on Day 1.
We
are now down to just 3 horses with both Andrew Krywaniuk and Roger Grosset
scheduled to play Event #57: $1000 NLH and Brent Senko set to play the Main
event! Let’s hope for one of these guys to come thru for themselves and the
league.
Similar
to Kal Kooner’s success at Planet Hollywod, Brant Taylor cashed in 8th
for $4,834 in a $300 NLH tourney at PH.
June 14, 2015: WSOP
Updates
So
we are getting to around the halfway point of the 2015 World Series of Poker
and we have had several winners play so far so here is a quick recap of how our
league members have done.
Event
#3: $1500 Limit Omaha Hi Lo. Darren played and made it deep taking an above
average chipstack into Day 2 ultimately busting in around 140th when 117 got paid.
It was heartbreaking but still a good run.
Event
#5A: $565 Colossus: Nick Simon and Johnny Dai played this event and neither
made it thru the day with chips
Event
5B: $565 Colossus: Nick Simon and Darren Kennedy played this event and once
again neither made it thru the day.
Event
5C: $565 Colossus: Darren Kennedy played this event and was able to accumulate
a lot of chips early. Used those chips to punish players all day and went into
Day 2 with well above average chips. Near the money bubble I ran 66 into JJ on
a J65 board to lose 70% of my chips and knock myself down to 10 BBs. I would
hang on and cash and then find AA against AQ for the full double. I would later
get my chips in with AK vs KQ for a triple up and unfortunately my opponent
spiked a Q and I would fall in 1480th place out of 22360 players for $2125. The
league receives $545 for their piece of my action.
Event
22: $1000 NLH: Paul Deol played and made it until after dinner break but fell
about 9pm
Event
28: $1500 Monster Stack: Chris Nishi played and unfortunately ran KK into AA
just before dinner break and was out. Colin Genge also played the Monster Stack
and was unable to get much above starting stack.
Event
30: $1000 NLH: Chris Fraser is currently playing. He made it thru dinner break
with 11 BBs. They should be back from dinner in a few minutes so hopefully he
is able to run that stack up and make day 2.
So
we are 1 for 10 with one in action and 4 to come.
Our
remaining league winners to play include:
Colin
Genge in Seniors (Event 40) on Friday
Andrew
Krywaniuk and Roger Grosset in Event 57 on June 28th.
Brent
Senko in the MAIN EVENT on July 6th.
Best
of luck to you all.
In
non league winner news:
Dean
Hilts and Ray Rohrback both played the Colossus and had no luck.
Brant
Taylor made day 2 of the Monster Stack before losing a flip AK<TT
Kal
Kooner busted the $1500 6Max but then jumped into the one day $400 Goliath at
Planet Hollywood and grinded it out to an amazing 3rd place finish for
$19,422!!!! Way to go Kal!!!!

Juvelin and Mark Juvelin made Day 2 of the Monster stack and last I heard they
are still in it so hopefully they can cash.
Darren

Sorry
for those of you I missed or forgot and good luck to everyone taking their shot
at the WSOP this year.
May 26, 2015: WSOP Begins
in Mere Hours
The
WSOP begins tomorrow at noon and the first of our winners plays on Thursday at
noon in the $1500 Limit Omaha H/L tournament. That player is none other than myself
Darren Kennedy. Johnny Dai, Nick Simon and myself will be playing Friday for
the league in the $565 Colossus tournament. This tournament will shatter the
records for the largest ever live tournament. The old record of 8773 was for
the Main Event which Jamie Gold won. The Colossus is likely to top 20,000
players.
I
will send out emails after getting results and bust-outs of league players, but
with about 20-25 Die Hard Poker players having twitter accounts I think the
best way to follow along is to monitor this twitter list:
https://twitter.com/DarrenDieHard/lists/xdhpl
That
twitter list follows the twitter accounts of 34 players with ties to the Die
Hard Poker League. I will add and subtract from the list as time goes on. If
you have a twitter account that you use for poker that this list is not
following just let me know and I will add to it. If you have a twitter account
please try and use it during the tournament on breaks or whenever to update us
on your chipstacks or big hands.
Ben
Walker and Dean Hilts will also be playing the Colossus on their own dime.
My
own twitter account will be updated often with my progress in various
tournaments and with DHPL League Member progress (DarrenDieHard). I will also try and
update the webpage every couple of days at least while we have players in
action. Good luck to everyone going down.
May 22, 2015: Kent Senko
takes down the $200 Event
Congrats
to Kent Senko who outlasted the 31 entry field last Friday to win $2000. Kent
beat Eric Chong after a chop to win the event. It was a super fun and relaxing
tournament. We started with 17,000 chips since the field was small and there
were 7 rebuys (myself included). Ray Rohrback had most of the chips for quite
some time at the final table but went cold at the wrong time. Bruce McCallum
was a yoyo going from short and nearly crippled to chip leader and back to
shorty multiple times before ultimately falling in 3rd place. Kent
is becoming a $200 buy-in specialist after finishing third in our inaugural
$200 buy-in last year before winning this one.
I
hope to run a $100 buyin sometime in mid-to-late June so stay tuned.
Finishers
were: Kent Senko ($2,000), Eric Chong ($1,800), Bruce McCallum ($1,000), Darren
Kennedy ($600), Ray Rohrback ($400), Eitan Even ($400).

April 12, 2015: Brent
Senko beats Darren Kennedy to win $10k WSOP Seat!
A
huge congratulations to Brent Senko who will represent the Die Hard Poker
League in the 2015 World Series of Poker Main Event. On the final hand of the night
Brent held JT vs Darren’s K8 all in preflop. The board came with 3 Tens giving
Brent Senko Quad Tens and the championship.
The
night started off as expected with many shortstacks dropping quickly as they
tried to double up their micro stacks. Many of them busting out with AK aipf.
By first break at end of level 4 we were down to just 32 players from 61
starting. With 10 seats on the line we were already just 22 from the money.
Stacks remained fairly even with only 6 players above 20k at first break. They
were: Colin Genge 55,700, TJ Johnston 32,500, Steve Tamboline 25,000, Darren
Kennedy 23,100, Chris Nishi 23,000 and Nick Simon 22,700. Colin chipped up
early but in a massive hand he knocked out Richard Wardroper who built up a
stack of nearly 30,000 very early on before running into a flopped full house
of Colin.
By
second break we were down to just 18 players. The stacks were: Colin Genge
92,000, Nick Simon 76,000, Steve Tamboline 40,000, TJ Johnston 32,000, Johnny
Dai 35,000, Paul Deol 30,000, Kent Senko 27,000, Darren Kennedy 25,000, Chris
Fraser 22,000, Roger Grosset 18,400, Brent Senko 16,800, Chris Nishi 16,700,
John Forsythe 14,000, Andrew Krywaniuk 12,000, Jason Nadeau 8,000, Ben Walker
6,600, Chris Genge 5,000, Lance Murdoch 3,500. A couple big hands occurred at
this level including a big pot between Jason Nadeau and Steve Tamboline with
them both getting in 26k on and AK7sss board. Jason held AK and Steve held the
j9 with one spade. The turn was clean but the river was a spade and Steve took down
a 60k chip pot.
With
the blinds moving to 800/1600 for Level 8, there were 6 of the remaining 18 at
sub 10 BB stacks. Not surprisingly we dropped a few players quickly. Lance fell
in 18th followed quickly by Chris Genge in 17th. From
here Table 2 was much bigger stacked than Table 1 and Table 2 would proceed to
do most of the dirty work. In particular Colin was very active. He did some
serious damage throughout the tournament with J9 KO-ing I believe 4 different
people with that exact holding. Steve Tamboline would fall in 16th
in a massive 100,000 chip pot when his QQ lost to Colin’s AK all in preflop
with a dramatic Ace on the river. Jason Nadeau would fall in 15th
when his pair and flush draw lost to a rivered pair. 14th belonged
to John Forsythe and then Kent Senko would run his TT into Darren’s JJ. Now on
the double bubble Brent Senko was getting a little short. He called a Colin
open and saw a 973 flop. Colin bet with 8T and Brent moved all in with AT to
which Colin snapped. Brent would hold and that hand was critical to his run to
the title. Ben Walker would reship over Colin’s open with KJss and Colin would
call with AQ and hold.
Now
it was bubble time. A bubble deal was discussed briefly but with 3 people
abstaining it was not to happen. The bubble lasted over an hour with the
shortstacks doubling time and time again but eventually TJ Johnston would go
out holding 77 and we were in the money.
The
final table chipstacks were: Colin Genge 118,500, Darren Kennedy 94,500, Brent
Senko 75,000, Chris Nishi 41,000, Nick Simon 38,000, Paul Deol 33,500, Roger
Grosset 25,000, Andrew Krywaniuk 20,500, Chris Fraser 19,000, Johnny Dai
13,000.
Andrew
would fall in 10th for $565 WSOP. The next 5 would all get $1000
seats. They were from 9th to 5th, Chris Nishi, Paul Deol,
Chris Fraser, Roger Grosset, Nick Simon. Johnny Dai would fall in 4th
with a $1500 seat then a long drawn out 3 handed match between Darren, Brent
and Colin occurred. Lead changes were nearly every pot but eventually Colin
would ship and run into Darren’s KK to fall in 3rd.
Headsup
play began with Darren at 265,000 to Brents 225,000. Brent would take control
early and quickly develop a 2 to 1 chip lead. He would still maintain that lead
when we got it all in with Darren holding K8 to Brent’s JT. Three tens on board
for Quads would send Brent to the Main Event. A huge congrats to all our
winners and I hope we do better down there than last year when we went the big
0 for.
Of
note 5 players who won this year also won a seat last year: Andrew Krywaniuk,
Johnny Dai, Chris Nishi, Nick Simon and Colin Genge.
March 21, 2015: League
Final Prep!
We
also did the draw for the League Final. There are 5 players who have points
that will not be participating in the Final. Trevor Massey (2,500pts) with a
time conflict, and 4 other players who have dropped out and not paid their
league fees: Ryan Watkins (8,000), Mike Martin (5,000), Mike Courtney (2,500),
Dean Kilback (1,500). As such there will be 485,500 chips in play for the
league final and 61 players competing for 10 prizes.
The
average stack will be almost exactly 8,000 chips. This year with the draw for
seats for the first time we did not end up with a ‘table of death’. All tables
have between 48,500 and 80,500 chips in play, nowhere near the 111,000 from
last year.
Table
breaking order will be from high to low.
We had 61 fully paid league
members this year.The prizes this year will be as follows:
1st: $10,000 WSOP Main Event + $800 cash
2nd: $2,500 WSOP + $600

March 21, 2015: Tyler
Marples beats Chris Nishi for the win, Colin Genge Locks up Guaranteed Prize
Another
large turnout saw 81 players and 12 rebuys for 93 entries. Tyler Marples who had
struggled all year was able to get a big stack late in the tourney when he
called all in with TT with 3 other players already all in. His TT beat AK, 63
and AJ to about triple up. From there he went on to outlast Dylan Ruocco and
Chris Nishi to win the tourney. Dylan and Jason Nadeau were other players that
came into the night with very little points and made good with big points.
As
for the season winner, Colin Genge needed to out last 4 players to lock it up.
Mike Menkes, Brant Taylor and Ray Rohrback would go out relatively early
leaving it down to Paul Deol and Colin Genge. Paul would need a minimum 3rd
place, but once they were both in the points Paul was going to need at least a
second place. Paul would ultimately fall in 20th guaranteeing the
prize for Colin who finished in 7th for 3,000 points just for good
measure.
The
finishers were: Tyler Marples ($1360), Chris Nishi ($910), Dylan Ruocco ($640),
TJ Johnston ($460), Jason Nadeau ($360), Kai Picard ($270, non-league), Colin
Genge ($200), Howard Holt ($150), Todd Brenneis ($100, rebuy), Roger Grosset
($100, rebuy), Shawn Lange ($100, non-league), Ryan McDonald (non-league),
Bruce McCallum (rebuy), Andrew Krywaniuk, Rob Sims, Hal Bellingham
(non-league), Mike Twitchell, Dylan Goulah (non-league), Chris Buss, Paul Deol,
Andrew Creed (rebuy), Shane Kurgnjas (non-league), Robert Brechin (non-league),
Mike Farnese, Jeff Scott, Jordan Kroeker, Lyle Wingert, David Slater
(non-league), Everett Wicklund, Darcy Woodward.
March 17, 2015: Ray
Rohrback takes Event #9 against massive 101 player field, his brother Rick
finally held pointless
An
enormous turnout resulted in 101 entries cracking the previous record of 91.
This resulted in 35th place actually making the points since there
were so many non-league members and rebuys, 12 people making the money and an
enormous $1400 for first place. And topping the enormous field was Ray Rohrback
earning his 3rd ever DHPL victory. His brother Rick however was held
pointless for the first time all year. Elton Ngan squeaked into the points
locking up 500 meaning every single league member has now earned points.
The
season results leaves Colin Genge at the top with only Paul Deol, Brant Taylor,
Mike Menkes and Ray Rohrback within striking distance. Ray and Paul will need
at least a second place to pass Colin while Mike and Brant would need a win.
Even if they did the above, a 5th or better from Colin would lock up
first place and the guaranteed seat.
The
finishers were: Ray Rohrback ($1400), Ryan Appleton ($900, non-league), Chris
Nishi ($650), Peter Jensen ($500, non-league), Brent Senko ($400), Mike Menkes
($300), Cory Breland ($250, non-league), Shane Kurgnjas ($200, non-league),
Doug Crone ($150, non-league, playing for Jamie Hucul), Shawn Lange ($100,
non-league), Adam Perkin ($100, non-league), Chris Buss ($100), Gary Beta
(non-league), Faisal Alqutah (non-league), Chris Fraser, TJ Johnston, Rob Sims
(rebuy), Nick Simon, David Slater (non-league), Amraan Safiq (non-league),
Lance Murdoch, Howard Holt, Bob Deforest, Jason Nadeau, Thanh Nguyen
(non-league), Sam Mangat (non-league), Pat McCallam (non-league), John
Forsythe, Steve McLarty (non-league), Keith Matsalla (non-league), Eric Ruttan,
Jordan Kroeker, Grant Willis (non-league), Elton Ngan, Chris Genge.
January 30, 2015: Nick
Simon Wins Event #8, Colin Genge Takes Points Lead
Nick
Simon dominated from start to finish accumulating lots of chips early and
riding it out to the victory. He beat Mike Menkes heads up for the title after
a fairly long 3 handed battle including Colin Genge. A couple of usual faces in
the points including Mr. Consistency Rick Rohrback once again putting up points
making it points in all 8 events this year. Colin followed up his back-to-back
second place finishes with a third place which was good enough to take a
sizable point lead for the guaranteed prize.
But
there were newer faces as well. We had 6 players without points coming into the
night and of the 6 only Elton Ngan remains pointless with Bruce Lawson, Bruce
McCallum, Brent Senko, Guy Bottin and Kal Kooner all notching their first
points of the season.
The
finishers were: Nick Simon ($1,040), Mike Menkes ($720), Coling Genge ($460),
Garry Juvelin ($320), Curtis Davey ($270, non-league), Ian Deak ($220,
non-league), Bruce Lawson, Guy Bottin, Mike Farnese, Tyler Marples (rebuy),
Wayne King, Andy Bhatti, Roger Grosset, Derrick Shum, Andrew Krywaniuk, Brent
Senko, Darcy Woodward, Ramiro Dominguez, Mike Wigglesworth, Kal kooner, Rick
Rohrback, Bruce McCallum, Bob Deforest.
January 30, 2015: Brant
Taylor Wins Event #7, Colin Genge Runner-Up Again
A
lot of the same with Colin Genge finishing second again just like the last
event and Rick Rohrback making the points for a record 7th straight
tourney. Something new however Brant Taylor winning outright with no chop. We
had 73 entries in Event #7 and some solid poker combined with the usual
suckouts. The pointes lead remains at 17,500 with Colin Genge joining Paul Deol
at that level. The race has tightened greatly however with now the top 9 all
within 5,000 points of that coveted guaranteed WSOP package.
Also
a full 4 people got off the schneid by getting their first points of the year,
although for 3 of them it was just the minimum 500 points.
The
finishers were: Brant Taylor ($1,040), Colin Genge ($720), Mike Farnese ($460),
Andrew Creed ($320), TJ Johnston ($270), Trevor Massey ($220, re-entry),
Richard Stewart ($180, non-league, playing for Mike Martin), Ray Rohrback, Rick
Rohrback, Chris Buss, Dean Hilts (non-league), Steve Tamboline, Ted Hill
(non-league, playing for Mike Honeyman), Chris Genge, Mo Pannun, Roger Grosset,
Jamie Hucul, Ramiro Dominguez, Chris Nishi, Scott Brynen.
January 13, 2015: Richard
Wardroper Takes First in Event #6 – No Sub Required
Richard
Wardroper whose sub took the 10k points in Event 5 only to have it retracted
when it was realized that he had already had 2 subs in prior events, decided to
be certain this time and just win the tournament himself. Richard chopped the
money with Colin Genge and Rod Seitz before outduelling Colin for the 10k
points.
Mr.
Consistency, Rick Rohrback made the points again falling in 10th for
2,000 points. This is a perfect 6-for-6 in-the-points finishes this season and
his drive for a perfect season continues.
The
battle for the points lead is extremely tight with Paul Deol holding a 4,500
points lead but 2nd thru 14 are separated by only 3,500 points. This
really is anyones game at this point.
A
very interesting hand saw Trevor Massey KO’d by I believe Richard Wardroper
with AJ < QTdd. The flop came down AdJdX, the money went in and then the
board ran out KdAs. Richard’s Royal Flush beat Aces full.
The
finishers were: Richard Wardroper ($750), Colin Genge ($750), Rod Seitz ($750,
non-league), Todd Breneis ($360), David Slater ($290, non-league, playing for
Steve Tamboline), Ryan Fritz ($230, non-league), Roger Grosset ($180), Johnny
Dai ($140), Dan Molatore ($100), Rick Rohrback ($100),Trevor Massey, Andrew
Krywaniuk, John Forsythe, Mike Mittermuller, Mike Bigelow, Jeff Scott, Paul
Deol, Ben Walker (rebuy), Ed Sue, Darcy Woodward, Mike Menkes.
December 11, 2014: Hendon
Mod Poker Db now Posting DHPL Results!
In
what can be only termed as a very cool result for our league, The Hendon Mob
database which is the gold standard for recording poker tournament results
worldwide is now posting all Die
Hard Poker League Results. What this means is that anyone who has ever
cashed in a DHPL tournament now has a poker profile on Hendon Mob right up
alongside the Negreanu’s and Hellmuth’s of the world. If you are interested in
your profile please take a look at the link above. From there you can search
your own name and check out your results.
December 8, 2014: Event
#5: Harry McWilliams and Hanna Nguyen Chop, Jeff Scott takes 10k Points
Harry
McWilliams on a rebuy and Hanna Nguyen chopped up first place money. Hanna made
a mistake while we were at the 10 handed final table. At 3000/6000 Harry opened
up all in for 87,000 chips. It folded around to Hanna in the small blind who
obviously did not notice and announced raise while putting out 16,000 chips.
Because she had verbalized raise she needed to min raise which meant 81k above
the 87k allin effectively putting her allin. Her 76o did not improve and she
lost to Harry’s 99 giving Harry a massive chiplead. Left with under 40k chips,
she got aggressive and it paid off. Soon Hanna and Harry were headsup and
enarly dead even in chips. They made the deal and chopped first and second
place.
There
was some other interesting drama in this one as everyone went out thinking they
got one place lower than they actually got as Hanna Nguyen was supposedly
playing for Richard Wardroper and she therefore got him 10,000 points. However
after checking the standings page I noted that Richard had already used two
subs. Therefore everyone bumped up a spot including Jordan Kroeker who thought
he had bubbled the points. He gets 500.
In
other news both Rick Rohrback and Dave Sims snuck into the points making Rick 5
for 5 in-the-point finishes and Dave with points in 4 of 5 events. Consistency!
The
finishers were: Harry McWilliams ($1015, rebuy), Hanna Nguyen ($1015,
non-league), James Logan ($560, non-league), Jeff Scott ($410), Chris Fraser
($310), Bob Deforest ($250, rebuy), TJ Johnston ($200), Mike Twitchell ($140,
rebuy), Bruce Lawson ($100, rebuy), Darren Kennedy ($100), Howard Holt, Mo
Pannun, Bruce McCallum (rebuy), Steve Tamboline, John Forsythe, Lance Murdoch, Dan
Molatore, Rob Sims (rebuy), John Alexander (non-league, playing for Colin
Genge), Garry Juvelin, Mike Farnese, Ramiro Dominguez, Mike Johnston, Rick
Rohrback, Dave Sims, Jordan Kroeker.
November 16, 2014: Event
#4: Ben Walker Wins, Chops Cash with Ryan Watkins and Cory Breland
This
tourney set a record for fewest rebuys with only 6 people opting to reply
although a total of 15 people busted in time to rebuy. The tourney had a couple
of players build big stacks early including Grant Willis and Steve Tamboline,
but although they did both ride those stacks deep into the tourney it were
players that had relatively shorter stacks that ground it out to the final
table and then ran hot when it counted. Ben Walker would ultimately win the
tournament though with 3 left they opted to chop the cash as they were all
extremely even in chips. Ben survived an earlier must win all in flip with AK
> JJ of Lyle. He would ride those chips to the Final table where he would
pick up Aces in quick succession and get two KO’s when the bullets held up.
Timing is everything and Ben made the most of his.
Ryan
Watkins notched his first cash in the DHPL after 3 years in the league and it
was a good one at $770. Grant Willis notched his second ever cash and Cory
Breland, the cashing machine, added another to his total. Ed Sue, who won the
last event also cashed again and a final note was Paul Deol NOT cashing for
first time this season, letting a few others take some cash home.
The
finishers were: Ben Walker ($770), Ryan Watkins ($770), Cory Breland ($780,
non-league), Rob Sims ($380), Grant Willis ($300, non-league), Ed Sue ($250,
non-league, playing for John Forsythe), Todd Breneis ($200), Kent Senko ($150),
Jordan Kroeker (rebuy), Mike Twitchell ($100), Hanna Nguyen (non-league, playing
for Richard Wardroper), Mo Pannun, Trevor Massey, Derrick Shum, Mike Honeyman,
Dave Sims, Dylan Ruocco, Norm Dergousoff (non-league), Steve Tamboline, Rick
Rohrback, Darren Kennedy, TJ Johnston, Ray Rohrback.
November 9, 2014: Ed Sue
and Richard Wardroper Chop Event #3, Dave Sims Takes 10k Points
In
a tourney that drew in 91 buyins and paid the final 11, we had a first. Dave
Sims was able to get 10,000 points by finishing in 4th with the top
3 finishers being non-leaguer Ed Sue (1st) who chopped first place
with Richard Wardroper (rebuy, 2nd) and 3rd place finisher Bruce
McCallum also on a rebuy. Ed Sue locked up his 3rd DHPL Tourney Win.
The
finishers were: Ed Sue ($1,050, non-league), Richard Wardroper ($1,050, rebuy),
Bruce McCallum ($600, rebuy), Dave Sims ($440), Mike Honeyman ($340), Andrew
Krywaniuk ($270), Lyle Wingert ($200), Rick Rohrback ($160), Mike Felhauer
($140), Chris Genge ($100), Paul Deol ($100), Roger Grosset (rebuy), Cory
Breland (rebuy), Ben Walker, Grant Willis (non-league), Chris Fraser, Chris
Buss, Everett Wicklund, Jason Nadeau, Harry McWilliams, Doug Crone
(non-league), Rob Sims, Mike Wigglesworth, John Forsythe, TJ Johnston.
October 22, 2014: Johnny
Dai and Mike Martin Chop First in Event #2, Paul Deol Rolls On
Johnny
Dai and Mike Martin squared off heads up after KO-ing myself Darren Kennedy in
3rd, but rather than play it out they chopped the $950 and called it
a day. Mike Martin was on a rebuy so there were no points left to play for.
Paul Deol, fresh off winning Event #1 finished in 5th and added a
whopping 5,000 points to his total and retains a big lead in the points race.
We had 79 buyins for the event.
I
myself finished 3rd after amassing an amazing amount of chips early
and then coasting until losing a flip for half my stack with about 12 left and
having to scrape and claw to ladder up to third spot. I was fortunate several
times. Most people remember their bust-out hands, I prefer to remember where I
got in bad and got lucky. In the first hour I was all in pre flop versus Garry
Juvelin with me having him covered by just 500 chips. It looked grim with my KK
up against Garry’s AA. But a door card King got me going and then just two
hands later my AA held vs Mike Bigelow’s flopped flush draw and it was off to
the races. Sometimes the cards play themselves and sometimes you just get
lucky. Never forget that in tournament poker. Later on at the final table I
failed to notice Norm Dergousoff had raised in early position by quietly
pushing in his stack. I was in the SB and moved all in with garbage expecting
the BB to fold. However my garbage spiked a pair vs Norm’s AK and I got lucky
once again.
The finishers were: Johnny
Dai ($950), Mike Martin ($950, rebuy), Darren Kennedy ($520), Lance Murdoch
($370), Paul Deol ($300), Harry McWilliams ($240, rebuy), Norm Dergousoff
($180, non-league), Ray Rohrback ($140), Rick Rohrback ($100), Roger Grosset
($100), Kent Senko, Stan Zatylny, Guido McEvoy, Hal Bellingham, Mike Menke,
Mark Juvelin, Rob Sims, Ramiro Dominguez, Jason Nadeau (rebuy), Dave Sims, Dan
Molatore, Chris Fraser, Tyler Marples, Todd Breneis, Eric Ruttan.
September 23, 2014: Paul
Deol Wins Event #1 for Third DHPL Title
The 10th season of the Die Hard Poker League
kicked off with a bang. 85 buy-ins and so far 67 league members. Before the
poker there was good fun had on the golf course with sharks Everett “par par
par” Wicklund and Jamie “I can’t play on the front nine, but once money is on
the line I am golden” Hucul” showing the rest of us how its done.
A small hiccup at the start of poker due to me
forgetting the cards but luckily I live way closer now so it only delayed us
about 10 minutes. Once the cards were in the air there were many suckouts, but
no Guy yours was nowhere near the worst (AA < AJ on JXX board). Try asking
Scott Brynen who lost when he got 33 all in on flop of T34 vs AT.
When it came down to the end Paul Deol and Steve
McClarty were heads up and quickly came to a deal. They had to flip for the win
and Paul was our winner notching his 3rd career DHPL win tieing him
for 3rd all time with only Rod Smith and Al Deleon with 4 ahead of
him,
The finishers were: Paul Deol
($1090), Steve McClarty ($990, playing for Howard Holt), Eric Ruttan ($570,
re-entry), Trevor Massey ($420, re-entry), Mike Bigelow ($330), Cory Breland
($250, playing for Brant Taylor), Steve Tamboline ($200), Mike Twitchell
($150), Mike Courtney ($100), Mike Martin ($100), Adam Livesey (playing for
Ramiro Dominguez), Rob Sims, Sien Vongnaraj (non-league), Dean Kilback, Chris
Genge, Rick Rohrback, Kai Picard (playing for Mike Felhauer), Mike Honeyman,
Garry Juvelin, Nick Simon, Bob DeForest.

Buyin Tourney Results
We
had a 27 person turnout and 7 rebuys to build a nice $6800 prizepool.
Everett
Wicklund and Garry Juvelin chopped first place for $2000 a piece before Garry
took down the win. Kent Senko finished 3rd for $1000, Elton Ngan 4th for $800,
Bobby Gagnon 5th for $600 and myself Darren Kennedy 6th for $400. Congrats to
all the winners
August 12, 2014: League
List
I
want names of all those expecting to play this year. I have most of my
returning players respond already but there are a bunch of new people I am
expecting and do not have names for. So please if you know of people wanting to
join this year try and get me their names.
From
last year I only know of Kai Picard and the 7 players that dropped out partway
through the season that are supposedly not returning. Most of the rest of you
have confirmed that you are returning. I would like to hear from the following
players if they are returning: Ashley Samborski, Eric Chong, Gerald Samborski,
Johnny Dai, Kyle Pendree, Larry Williams and Richard Wardroper on if you are
coming back.
I
have updated the website with league dates and will soon put up a list of those
confirmed for this coming season.
August 12, 2014: Get Ready
for another DHPL Season
Hello
Die Hard Poker Players,
The
dates are set. I would at this point like to know who is coming back. If you
haven't already let me know please reply and let me know you are in. The same
goes for any new players that wish to sign up for the league this year.
Rules/Changes:
There
have been a couple suggested and I will send a separate email for this.
Like
last year we are moving to a Saturday kickoff date with hopefully some pre
poker golf beforehand. I have 6 tee times booked between 11:48am and 12:28pm
for the Saturday of the first event. First 24 people that reply will get the
tee times.
