Another Pot For Theo

Theo Jorgensen
Theo Jorgensen

The action folded around to Sebastian Rust in the small blind and he made up the loose change. Theo Jorgensen was seated in the big blind and he raised it up to 1,200 and Rust made the call.

Flop: {K-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts} {5-Spades}

Rust checked to Jorgensen who bet 1,500 and then he check-raised to 3,000. Jorgensen made the call and the {A-Clubs} was laid down on the turn. Both players checked the turn and the river of the {2-Spades} was also checked by Rust - who seemed eager to get to showdown. Jorgensen had other ideas and he made a bet of 5,000 and Rust paid him off.

Molson And Helppi Split The Pot

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

The action folded around to Will Molson on the button and he made it a nice round 1,000 to play. The small blind got out of the way but Juha Helppi stuck in a three-bet to 2,200 from the big blind. Molson wasted little time in moving all in for what turned out to be 11,100 and Helppi called.

Helppi: {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}
Molson: {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}

Board: {9-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{3-Hearts}

Chop it up.

To Be Bluffed or Not To Be Bluffed

Luca Pagano
Luca Pagano

Govert Metaal and Luca Pagano both had opponents trying to bluff them but only one was actually bluffed.

That one was Metaal. He bet 2,800 on a the turn of a {6-Spades}{10-Hearts}{a-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} board and was check-raised up to 7,000 by Sigurd Terpling. The Dutch business man tank-folded only to be shown {9-Clubs}{3-Spades}.

Moments later, two tables along, Pagano check-called a 3,100 bet from Grzegorz Cichocki
on the turn of a {4-Hearts}{6-Spades}{3-Clubs}{k-Clubs} board. The river fell {3-Spades} and both players checked. Cichocki opened {a-Spades}{j-Spades}, losing out to Pagano's {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}.

Bjerkmann Stares Down Adel

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

We joined the action on a board reading {10-Hearts}{5-Spades}{K-Spades}{A-Hearts}{8-Hearts} it appeared Omar Adel had checked in the small blind and was facing a bet of 8,350 from the hyper-aggressive Marcel Bjerkmann, who was trying his best to burn a hole through the side of his opponent's head with his stare!

He stared at him intensely for over three minutes before averting his gaze for a moment to signal to the dealer he wanted to call time on his opponent. As it happened a floorman was stood behind the dealer and informed Adel he had 60-second in which to act.

Adel did not need the the full time allocated and he sent his cards back to the dealer.

Suman Nedzib Hands Theo Jorgensen a Gift

A nice little gift for Jorgensen
A nice little gift for Jorgensen

Suman Nedzib opened to 1,075 in first position and Team PokerStars Pro Theo Jorgensen cold called just a few seats to his left. The dealer handed them a {10-Diamonds} {8-Clubs} {2-Diamonds} flop and Nezib check-called a 1,400 Jorgensen bet. On the turn we saw the {A-Diamonds} and once again Nedzib check-called a Jorgensen bet; this time for 2,700. Going to the river Nedzib had around 10,000 behind when he checked to the Team PokerStars Pro. Jorgensen scanned his stack before putting him all-in and Nedzib called.

Nedzib got to his feet and showed {A-Clubs} {9-Clubs} for top pair and unremarkable kicker and Jorgensen showed {10-Hearts} {10-Spades} for the flopped set.

Viktor Blom failed to evade Victor Ilyukhin's draw to the world to bust. The Team PokerStars Pro opened the pot with a raise to 800 and was called in three spots.

The flop came {q-Clubs}{2-Spades}{9-Spades} and Blom's 2,400 bet was called by all three opponents. Blom moved all-in for 11,500 on the {5-Hearts} turn and Ilyukhin moved all-in behind, with the other two folding.

Blom: {a-Hearts}{q-Spades} for top-top.
Ilyukhin: {k-Spades}{10-Spades} for straight and flush draws.

The river came {j-Diamonds} to make the Russian's straight.

A Couple of Pots For Eames

Yes, don't be fooled by the smile, this is John Eames
Yes, don't be fooled by the smile, this is John Eames

Pot One

Alaa El-Chami limped into the pot, in early position, and Igor Pihela and John Eames both called in the blinds.The flop was {K-Hearts} {Q-Hearts} {Q-Spades} and Pihela checked to Eames who bet 600 and Alaa El-Chami made the call from position. Pihela folded and Eames and El-Chami saw the {5-Spades} pop up on the turn. This time Eames checked, El-Chami bet 1,125 and Eames made the call. On the river the same action ensued but not until Eames had pulled the odd face or two. The bet was for 2,100 and there was no need for the face pulling because at showdown Eames was good.

Eames{Q-Clubs} {3-Spades}
El- Chami{A-Hearts} {J-Spades}

Pot Two

Viktor Blom opened up the action to 700 from the hijack and Pihela called in the cutoff. Eames was seated on the button and he three-bet to 2,400; Blom folded and Pihela made the call.
