Double Up For Donev

[user46392]

It seems that Martin Jacobson raised from the button and was called by Sebastian Saffari in the small blind, only for Ivo Donev to shove from the big blind. Jacobson re-shoved and Saffari passed, muttering, "I shouldn't have called..."

Donev: {9-Hearts}

Jacobson:

Board: an "oooh!"-tastic {9-Clubs}

Donev got out his camera to capture his quads for posterity, as the pot was pushed towards him.

Hrisca New Chip Leader

[user46392]

Ciprian Hrisca leaps up to 840,000 and the chip lead.

With a lot of chips in the pot by the river of a {2-Diamonds}

board, Hrisca bet 100,000. An irked Johnny Lodden took a long time over his decision, saying, "It was a really good flop..." and eventually called. Lodden's {J-Diamonds}

was no good as Hrisca turned over {A-?}
