Prior to the start of the Full Tilt Poker UKIPT Galway Festival, FTP announced four ambassadors to represent their site this season on the UKIPT. Among them is Sinem ‘Sin’ Melin, who is one of Britain’s rising female poker stars having final tabled both the 2011 UKIPT Brighton Main Event and the 2013 GUKPT London Main Event.
We recently spent an orbit with Melin, who was sitting with approximately 22,000, here in the Main Event. Take a look.
Hand #1 (Hijack): Action folded to Melin and she did the same.
Hand #2 (Middle Position): Action folded to Melin and she raised to 225, which was good enough to win the pot.
Hand #3 (Middle Position): The under-the-gun player opened for 275 and Melin folded when action reached her.
Hand #4 (Middle Position): Melin opened for 250 and received calls from Janos Jeszek and Giuseppe Cavallo in middle position and the big blind respectively. When the flop came down 
, Cavallo checked and Melin bet 350. Jeszek called, Cavallo folded and the 
turned. Melin bet 650, Jeszek quickly called and the 
completed the board on the river. This time Melin checked and then folded when Jeszek bet 1,250.
Hand #5 (UTG +1): Melin opened for 225 and then called when the small blind three-bet to 675. Both players checked the 
flop and then Melin folded to a bet of 800 on the 
turn.
Hand #6 (Under the Gun): Melin folded.
Hand #7 (Big Blind): Action folded to Melin and she received a walk. She showed the 
in the big blind.
Hand #8 (Small Blind): A player in early position opened for 250, a middle-position player called and then the hijack three-bet to 900. Melin folded.
Hand #9 (Button): A player in middle position opened for 275 and then the cutoff three-bet to 700. Melin folded the button.
Hand #10 (Cutoff): A player in early position raised to 275, a late-position player called and Melin did the same. The button and blinds came along and six players saw a flop of 
. Three checks saw the late-position player bet 600, only Melin called and the 
turned, which both players checked. When the 
completed the board on the river, the late-position player bet 1,500 and Melin called. Her opponent tabled the and Melin sent her cards to the muck unseen.
