Rehne Pedersen Off To Good Start

Rehne Pedersen
Rehne Pedersen
Rehne Pedersen, former WPT winner, is off to a good start. He is up to 22,500 chips. The latest pot was a slow played set. The board read {8-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{4-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{A-Clubs}. There were 4 players in the pot and they checked it all the way until the small blind bet 1,000 into the 1,300 pot on the river. All folded to Rehne who made it 2,600. He was quickly called by the small blind who had hit the turn and river with A-10. Rehne had flopped a set of eights.

Juha Helppi Doubles Up!

We only caught the pot at the river and by this time the dealer was counting down Juha's stack so the other player in the hand could pay him off. The board read {6-Spades}{7-Spades}{4-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{K-Hearts} and Juha had {7-Clubs}{4-Clubs} whilst his opponent had {A-Spades}{Q-Spades}. The pot was worth 17,500 chips.

Chad Brown Can't Catch a Break

An early position player limped in and action folded around to Chad Brown in the small blind. He completed and the big blind checked. The three players saw a flop of {K-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}. Brown and the big blind checked, and the limper led out for 400. Brown made the call and it was heads up to the turn. The turn brought the {8-Hearts}. Brown check/called a bet of 1,000 this time. The river was the {4-Clubs}. Again Brown check/called a bet of 1,000. His opponent flipped up the {K-Clubs}{7-Clubs} and Brown shook his hands in disbelief. Brown mucked and is now down to just 2,800.

Rutter's Bluff Fails

Andreas Glannbro bet 1,950 into a 1,000 chip pot on the turn of a {7-Hearts}{5-Spades}{10-Spades}{5-Diamonds} board. Stuart Rutter made it 4,500. Andreas had a brief dwell before moving all in covering Stuart. Stuart Rutter insta-mucked before Andreas had his chips over the line. That costly bluff has left Stuart with 6,800 chips.
