Manson Doubles Through Tureniec

Michael Tureniec opened to 20,000 and then called when Alexander Mason three-bet shoved for what turned out to be 144,000.

Tureneic: {K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}
Manson: {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}

"Don't be mean to me again," pleaded Manson as the dealer put the {2-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} flop followed by the {8-Hearts} turn and {8-Spades} river to double up the PokerStars qualifier.

Jacks Good For Rasmussen

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Gerasimos Deres opened the betting to 20,000 and to his direct left was Steve O'Dwyer and he flat-called. To his left was Jacob Rasmussen and he squeezed to 60,000, folding out Deres but when O'Dwyer had finished counting Rasmussen's stack he made the call.

Unfortunately for action junkies that was the last of the betting as the duo checked down the {8-Clubs}{K-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{K-Diamonds}.

Hudson Doubles Through Tureneic

Michael Tureniec has lost a little ground in the last couple of hands and is now on 540,000 chips.

He opened to 20,000 and to his immediate left was Spencer Hudson and he moved all in for 114,000. Tureniec called and the cards were revealed.

Tureniec: {A-Clubs}{J-Clubs}
Hudson: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}

The flop came down {4-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} and Hudson said "Oh please don't do this to me," referring to the club flush draw being out there. His pleas went answered as the turn and river came down {6-Diamonds} and {Q-Spades} resepctively and Hudson doubled up.

Bjarke Catches Sanchez Bluffing

It doesn't matter how often you look at them...it is still [5x] [6x]
It doesn't matter how often you look at them...it is still [5x] [6x]

Alejandro Sanchez Fernandez raised to 20,000 on the button and Bjarke Hansen defended his big blind. The flop was {K-Diamonds} {3-Spades} {2-Diamonds} and Hansen check-called a 22,000 c-bet. On the turn we had the {Q-Hearts} and the same action ensued with a 45,000 double barrel from Fernandez. Finally we saw the {A-Diamonds} on the river and Hansen very quickly check-called a third Fernandez barrel for 130,000.

Fernandez turned over {6-} {5-} for the airball and Hansen had read him perfectly holding {K-Hearts} {10-Diamonds}. It was a devastating mis-step for Fernandez who nows hits the bottom of the chip counts with just 210,000 chips.

Alejandro Sanchez Fernandez Eliminated in 15th Place (75,000 DKK)

The Spaniard is out
The Spaniard is out

Alejandro Sanchez Fernandez has had a day he would rather forget. He came into this day towards the top end of the chip counts and at one time shunted himself into the top two spots, after he eliminated Henrik Jeppsson.

He just bluffed the majority of his chips off to Bjarke Hansen and it was Hansen who stuck around to finish off the job. Fernandez moved 170,000 of his 210,000 stack into the middle, from the cutoff, and Bjarke Hansen called in the small blind. The flop was {9-Hearts} {7-Clubs} {4-Hearts} and Fernandez moved his final 40,000 into the pot and Bjarke Hansen made the obvious call.

Hansen{10-Hearts} {10-Spades}
Fernandez{5-Diamonds} {5-Clubs}

The turn and river bricked for Fernandez and he was out. Meanwhile Hansen moves himself into a very interesting spot with 959,000 chips.

Rasmussen Finds a Dream River

Rasmussen is back in action
Rasmussen is back in action

Jacob Rasmussen has just doubled up through Keld Volquardsen. He moved all-in from the cutoff for 119,000 and Volquardsen called from the big blind.

Rasmussen{Q-Hearts} {J-Spades}
Volquardsen{A-Spades} {10-Spades}

Volquardsen was in the lead and it was extended when he flopped the nut flush draw to add to his ace high - {K-Spades} {6-Hearts} {2-Spades}. The {3-Clubs} put Rasmussen one card away from an exit before the {Q-Diamonds} handed him an unlikely reprieve.
