Supporting from the UK....

Hi All

This is K here with the 1st posting of this year's blog..... sadly I'm still in the UK whilst my hubby has already been in Vegas for almost a week (stupid work!), but finally I join him tomorrow!

Good news to post from afar though..... A is playing in Event #54 of the WSOP and has made Day 2 after successfully doubling up through an American poker pro! Hurrah.... see below for the posting from pokernews!

Hamilton Runs Into Aces

Facing a raise under the gun to 900, a call from late position and then a three-bet to 3,600 from the small blind, Lisa Hamilton made it 10,900 from the big blind.
The original raiser moved all in for 13,300 and once the call and three-better folded, Hamilton made the call.
Hamilton: KK
Opponent: AA [An up and coming poker player from the Appley Bridge in the UK, a certain Andrew Hayes..... well OK this is a slight amendment of the post by a proud wife!]
Apart from a slight sweat on the river when it fell paint, the board fell fairly dry as it was spread to see Hamilton double her opponent up while slipping to just 3,600 in chips.

Can't wait to see you tomorrow babe.... just make sure that you get to Day 3 so that we can see you in action!!!
