Teddy Geddes Wins One
Feb 07, '15
With a flop of 9
9
5
Teddy Geddes, who won event 5 here at the CPPT Foxwoods (the $250 buy-in $25,000 guaranteed no-limit hold’em), checked. His lone opponent checked behind and the turn brought the Q and Geddes bet 1,800.
His opponent made it 5,800 to go and Geddes made the call.
The 4
hit the river and both players checked. Geddes revealed the KQ which was good enough to earn him the pot.
“Aww man, you tried to bluff a fish!” said Geddes as he raked in the pot. With one title already earned at this series it’s probably safe to say that Geddes is far from the fish he claims to be.

Updates from Level 6
Feb 07, '15
Shortly before the beginning of Level 6 Marsel Backa was eliminated by Je Wook Oh. With two spades on the flop, Backa was all in with two suited face cards. Oh called with two black tens and the two players waited see the following cards.
“I’ve got two overs and a draw,” Backa said, but he failed to pair his over cards or pick up the spades needed to make a flush as the board ran out.
After a quick trip around the room we noticed Paul Snead in the field. Snead is most easily remembered for the bad beat he took at the hands of Scott Montgomery extremely deep in the 2008 main event – a beat made even worse by the fact he was at a feature table and had the clock called on him, meaning the moment of his 21st place elimination would be seen and re-watched thousands of times. Snead took a break from poker after that, but told PokerNews back in 2013 he would be returning to poker full time within the next few years.
Event 5 winner Teddy Geddes has taken his seat somewhat late in the day in flight 1. Geddes recently topped a field of 216 entrants to win $11,048 in the $250 no-limit hold’em $25,000 guarantee.
Chris Tryba is wondering where Ronnie Pease is at. For those who followed along last year, Pease and Tryba played an incredibly long heads-up match that ended with an even chop for the money with the trophy going to Pease.
