Ambrose Travers Keeps The Poker Party Going

Nível 12 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Three months ago Ambrose Travers was in the Bahamas. He and a group of friends were there to cheer on Darren Millar as the latter lived out his Platinum Pass dream in the PSPC. It was such a good time that nobody wanted the party to end.

Now Travers is playing on Day 4 of the EPT Monte Carlo event, where he is one of just 30 players remaining. It’s something of a sequel to the PSPC festivities: while Travers battles with Sam Greenwood and Nicolas Chouity on the TV table, Millar and some of the same friends that cheered him on are here rooting for Travers.

“They’re the best friends in the world, they are,” he told PokerStars Blog this afternoon. “Darren did so well in the Bahamas, we couldn’t wait to get back home to get to the next tournament. PokerStars ran such a marvelous party there, we says, ‘What’s the next big event?’ The next big event was this one.”

So he jumped into a €5.50 satellite. Six hours later, after winning that first satellite and then the €55 and €530 qualifiers that it fed into, he’d earned himself a package to play in Monte Carlo.

Yong Eventually Gets It All In

Nível 12 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

The action was on Richard Yong who was in the middle of a phone call. He slid in his stack of T1,000 chips followed by his T5,000 chips. Because it was not all in one motion, Yong was only allowed to raise to 12,000.

"I can't go all in," he said. Yong was then warned to get off his phone as well.

Charlie Carrel was seated on Yong's left and moved all in which forced the rest of the table to fold. With the action back on Yong, he turned over . "I can't fold," he said as he put the rest of his chips in the middle.
