Hunichen Spikes In Three-Way All In

[user252447]

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante

Chris Hunichen opened the betting from first position and got called by Tomasz Kowalski. Tobias Ziegler from the small blind then made it 7,500.

Hunichen then opted to move all in and when Kowalski asked for a count he found it was 68,000. He took a few minutes to think about it, sat as he was in the middle of a shove and a three-bet, before he too moved all in. Ziegler was all in too and the cards were on their backs.

Hunichen:

Kowalski:

Ziegler:

“This would be a good time to flop and ace.” was Hunichen’s wry take on the situation.

The cards ran out . It didn’t come on the flop but Hunichen hit to get a big triple up, bust Ziegler and put the hurt on Kowalski.

“When I get called twice I’m hoping for those two hands. Give me an ace.” a happy Hunichen said, stacking his chips after apologising to the departing Ziegler.

Roothlus Comeback Time!

Webjoker

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

"Adam, come back!" we heard someone shout. "Oh, I had him covered?" answered Adam "roothlus" Levy as he made his way back to his table. He had just a few chips left after he lost a hand where he apparently got two-outed.

He started with his comeback right away, and just doubled up to a very playable stack. In a small blind versus big blind situation he got it in with against Stephen Graner who held .

Levy was in bad shape, but he saw some possibilities after the flop hit. "Hmmm" he said, undoubtedly asking for a king or ace in his head at the time. The hit the turn, and the on the river didn't change a thing.
