Running Up That Hill, No Problem

David Hill looks like the chip leader at the moment and we caught a little bit of how he got there and the table’s reaction to the amateur player from the Isle of Man. Hill had just won another pot, this time from Simon Deadman who had opened the action and had been called by Hill in the small blind.

The flop was and Deadman ended up calling and mucking on the river after being shown the flopped two pair of Hill. Deadman seemed a little surprised to see his opponent’s starting hand but reasoned that he had been in the small blind.

“Every time I’ve been seen I’ve always had it.” Hill told the table as he stacked his chips. As the next hand was about to be dealt the dealer found he was short an ante from one player. Hill said it must have been him as he was busy stacking the pot he had just won.

“That’s where he’s been getting all his chips, he’s not putting his antes in.” joked another player.
