Fishy Stories
Hyper-aggressive young Scottish tyro Ludovic Geilich is sat to the right of poker veteran and motor mouth Dave ��Devilfish�� Ulliott. They clearly know each other from the circuit and Ulliott is glad to have found a receptive audience for his tales. One involved Ulliott being accosted in Dusk ��Till Dawn card room by a Geordie (a resident of Newcastle) which ended with Ulliot offering to put up ��1,000 to his ��100 on a wager. Ulliott then put on an approximation of a Geordie accent saying the reply he got was, ��But I��ve only got a fiver.��
Geilich then initiated a discussion on live versus online cash games and the different skills required. Ulliott is never stuck for an anecdote and recalled playing high stakes cash at Bobby��s room with Daniel ��Jungleman�� Cartes. Details were scarce but he seemed less than impressed.
It��s early days in this tournament but it promises to be a fascinating table, particularly as PokerStars Mind Sports Ambassador Jennifer Shahade is next to Geilich. That��s quite a trio of contrasting styles.
