Brammer Suffers Setback

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

Chris Brammer's early good work has come undone after Lauri Meidla flopped a set against Brammer's overpair. The board was reading {6-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{4-Clubs} when the money went in, Brammer's {10-Hearts}{10-Spades} couldn't improve against Meidla's {4-Diamonds}{4-Spades} after a {7-Diamonds} turn and {J-Diamonds} river.

Meidla moved up to 44,000 while Brammer dropped to 25,000.

De Melo Defeated

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante
Fatima Moreira de Melo
Fatima Moreira de Melo

Fatima Moreira de Melo has just been crippled. She lost the classic 57-43 race with {Q-}{Q-} against Niko Soininen's {A-}{K-} when the board came {10-Spades}{J-Spades}{2-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}.

The Team PokerStars SportStar was knocked down to just 1,500 as a result of losing the pot worth 45,000 and was eliminated a few hands later.

Tables 1-45 are returning from their dinner break to play Level 6. Tables 46 and above are now going on their own 75-minute dinner break.

Brummelhuis Doubles

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante
Michiel Brummelhuis
Michiel Brummelhuis

2013 WSOP November Niner Michiel Brummelhuis just doubled up in one of the last hands before the break.

The player in the cut off position opened to 1,525, and on the button it was Brummelhuis who three bet to 3,025. Both blinds folded, the cut off made the call.

The cut off check called a 3,300 bet on {J-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}, and the turn double paired the board with the {3-Diamonds}. Both players checked the turn, and the cut off checked again after the {9-Hearts} hit the river.

Brummelhuis pushed all in for 17,000, and after some thinking the cut off made the call.

"Queens" said Brummelhuis as he showed {Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}. The cut off wanted to muck, but had to show his {A-Clubs}{5-Hearts} as it was an all in and call situation.

Seiver Receiver

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

Scott Seiver opened on the button for 900 and got one call from the player in the small blind. The flop was {10-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{3-Hearts} and a bet of 1,200 from Seiver got a call from the small blind.

The turn card {k-Clubs} saw both players check and on the river card {5-Hearts} the small blind decided to lead out for 3,500. Seiver clarified the bet and made the call to see his opponent’s {a-}{3-}. No good versus the {7-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} trips of Seiver.

Kresten Bull Run

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

We reported earlier that Kresten “El Toro” Nielsen had a long road back to remain in contention and since then he has set about doing exactly that. The smile is back on his face and there is a much more sizable stack of chips in front of him.

Misclick Turns Bad for De Meulder's Opponent

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante
Matthias De Meulder
Matthias De Meulder

Matthias De Meulder is one of the players seated in the much smaller Tournament Room B. He was up to 60,000 early on, and still hovers around that stack. De Meulder got up from the table and told us the details of the hand he doubled in at the beginning of the day.

The player in the cut off made a raise to 400 in the 75/150 level, and with {A-}{J-} off suit De Meulder called on the button. The player in the big blind wanted to call by throwing in four 100 chips, but made a mistake and had three 100 and one 500 chip, which was declared a raise to 800.

De cut off made the call, which told De Meulder that he had the best hand at that point. De Meulder re squeezed to 2,800 and the big blind made the call, the cut off now folded.

The flop brought {J-}{8-}{3-} and the big blind checked. De Meulder bet 3,200 and the big blind made the call. The turn brought the {5-Spades} to the table and the big blind checked. De Meulder now bet 5,800 and the big blind shoved for 23,000 total.

De Meulder laughed that that gave him a headache, but after some minutes of tanking, the Belgian Team Pro made the call.

De Meulder was up against {A-Spades}{9-Spades} and his hand helt after the {9-Clubs} hit the river.

Agro Ludo

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante
Ludovic Geilich
Ludovic Geilich

Ludovic Geilich made a splash recently when his appearance on the EPT London Main Event feature table was televised and he demonstrated his spectacularly aggressive style of play. In a recent hand he three-bet an under-the-gun raiser to 2,350 and it looked for a while that it was going to work before a four-bet to 6,000 saw Geilich release his hand.

Geilich is used to big swings but so far today has been holding steady around starting stack.
