This guy flops a royal flush, slowplays it against a guy that rivers a set – and makes quads against pocket aces. Not bad!

Jonathan Abdellatif of Alosta Rounders Fame’s EPT Dip

Belgian poker star Jonathan Abdellatif (member of the infamous Alosta Rounders crew, based in Flanders, Belgium) had an extremely interesting run in the European Poker Tour (EPT) main event in Deauville this year. Quickly accumulating a lot of chips on day 1A, Jonathan Abdellatif quickly found himself as the big chip leader in the tournament after both first day sessions had been completed (putting him ahead of big names including Dave ‘The Devilfish’ Ulliott.

It was both a combination of hitting big hands and playing them like the poker genius he is that put him in that spot, which he held for quite some time in day two too.

He ended up finishing in the money, somewhat disappointed though after losing a gigantic pot on a bluff and just after running his KK into AA.

No disaster for Jonathan Abdellatif though, we’re sure to see him on the international poker circuit again very soon — and we’ll be here reporting!

Vicky Coren interviewed at EPT Baden

It’s an extremely short interview, but I think it’s valueable as it shows Vicky Coren in a way we all love — the gracious poker-woman, talking about why she’s relaxed after winning the London EPT and showing she’s just a true nice girl… Not greedy, just a good, solid poker player feeling relaxed, hoping to cash. She’s awesome!

Does the economic crisis affect the Casino world

The question is will the the economic crisis affect the online Casino Market or the online Poker Market. The answer will probably be yes. You can already see the effects in the land based Casino. The Poker players stay away from the the casinos and the gamblers stay more at home or keep there winning instead of gambling them again.

In the Online Casinos and online Poker rooms there is not a big setback yet but maybe it will come very soon. The casinos en ligne and the poker online rooms have to put overlays on the tournaments. There are far less players that register in a Casino online or Poker on line room even though nothing changed to the online casino bonussen. So the deutsche online casino also feels the effect of the economic crisis and they will react. The normal Casino are already giving rooms away for free and the online casinos will give more money away in the future.

So if you wanna play in a online casino or online poker room the now if the chance to win some big money.

Alosta Rounders Kill the Tabels & The Props

Funny post on the Alosta Rounders site — some guy named Bert got MANHANDLED for €100 — and had to hand over signed money to Alosta Rounders member Tim J.

The Alosta Rounders are probably the most famous western-European poker collective, and they obviously don’t need the €100. Therefor, Tim J. decided to use the money…. as interior decoration.

Ha!
