Patrik's Turn

Level 5 : 2,500/5,000, 400 ante
Patrik Antonius and David Oppenheim
Patrik Antonius and David Oppenheim

The action folded to Patrik Antonius in the small blind, and he moved all in from the small blind.

Oppenheim peeked at both cards and saw that he had two four-siders - meaning he had either {10-}{10-}, {9-}{9-} or {10-}{9-}.

As he slowly squeezed it out, he shook his head and mucked whiles stating he had a natural - meaning he had the {10-}{9-}.

Two Pair Enough for Oppenheim

Level 5 : 2,500/5,000, 400 ante

Barney Boatman limped in from under the gun and David Oppenheim completed from the small blind as Howard lederer checked his option from the big.

Boatman took the lead on the {Q-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts} flop by leading for 7,500 as Oppenheim check-called and Lederer passed.

The {5-Diamonds} was checked through on the turn as the {k-Spades} landed on the river and Oppenheim checked for a third time.

Boatman leant over the table and then tapped it hard with his right fist. Oppenheim tabled his {A-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} and Boatman kicked his cards to the muck.

"Aarrgghh!" screamed Lederer.

"I had King-five. And a backdoor flush draw. Should have just bet the flop!" he continued.

Cookie Jar Punishment for Bord

Level 5 : 2,500/5,000, 400 ante

Barny Boatman limped the small blind and James Bord checked his option as the {10-Spades}{k-Clubs}{7-Clubs} flop brought about a bet of 8,000 from Bord once Boatman had checked.

Boatman stalled for a few moments before making it 21,000 to prompt an insta-fold from Bord.

"I knew I shouldn't have done it. Got my hand caught in the cookie jar!" stated Bord.

Aces for Antonius; Pot Chopped Up

Level 5 : 2,500/5,000, 400 ante

James Bord opened it up from the small blind for 12,500 only to have Patrik Antonius move all in for 46,600 from the big blind.

"Wait, how much more?" asked Bord before announcing call and tabling his hand.

Bord: {K-Spades}{4-Spades}
Antonius: {A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}

"Spade, spade, spade?" asked Bord as the dealer dropped the {8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} flop to get a few murmurs from the crowd.

The {10-Spades} on the turn now gave Bord a chop draw, and as he continually called for a nine, the deck obliged by dropping the {9-Hearts} on the river to see the pot chopped up.

"That was sick! So sick!" stated a stunned Bord.
