Top Pair Good For Piesik

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante

Richard Loth opened to 525 from late position and to his direct left, in the hijack, Jude Ainsworth three-bet to 1,350. The action then folded around to Andreas Piesik in the small blind and he called. Loth called and it was three-handed to the {K-Spades}{4-Spades}{6-Spades} flop.

Piesik checked, Loth checked, Ainsworth bet 1,800 and only Piesik made the call. The turn saw the {9-Diamonds} make an appearance and both players checked. The action was the same when the {4-Hearts} landed on the river.

Piesik turned over {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds} and Ainsworth mucked, saying he held a nine.

John "Eddie" Eames
John "Eddie" Eames

Omar Adel opened to 500 from UTG and the long-haired Oscar Kroon made the call. Two players folded and John Eames called, the action folded to David Kristiansen in the big blind and he put in the necessary chips to call.

Flop: {8-Spades}{4-Clubs}{J-Spades} - Kristiansen checked, Adel checked, Kroon bet 850 and only Eames called.

Turn: {K-Diamonds} - Kroon checked, Eames tried to verbally announce his bet but the tournament director was announcing the level up and he could not be heard. At the end of the announcement Eames said his bet was 3,800 and Kroon instantly folded.

Eames up to 22,000 here at EPT Copenhagen.

Mason On Form

There was a raise from early position to 500 and Ashley Mason three-bet to 1,425 in mid position. Andrey Zaichenko called in the big blind as did the original raiser. The first three cards to grace the felt were {5-Diamonds} {4-Clubs} {2-Diamonds} and Zaichenko check-called a 2,250 Mason bet. The turn was the {K-Clubs} and both players checked before the final card {8-Hearts} was displayed. Zaichenko checked to Mason who bet 15,000 into a pot of just under 10,000 and Zaichenko made the call.

Mason flipped over a pair of red kings and Zaichenko tapped the table and ditched his hand.

Thorson Hammers Opponent, Left With a Bowl

William Thorson will need a lot of help to get in this tournament after he lost a sizable pot to Martin Jorgensen.

We picked up the action on the {7-Spades}{2-Hearts}{7-Clubs} flop where Thorson bet 2,500 from the button. Jorgensen was in the small blind and check-raised up to 7,500. Call. The turn came {q-Spades} and Jorgensen checked to face a 5,500 bet from his fellow Scandi. He called to see the {a-Clubs} river and Thorson bet 15,000 when Jorgensen checked to him again.

Jorgensen took his time, shook his head, and made the call. Thorson tabled {a-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} but lost out to Jorgensen's {a-Hearts}{q-Spades}.
