Meet Christina Orth

Christina Orth
Christina Orth
Christina Orth drew one of the toughest tables today, sitting amongst Johnny Lodden, Sander Lyloff, Anders Henriksson, and Juha Helppi, but she has wasted no time in aggressively playing back at her professional opponents. In consecutive hands, she re-raised bets on the turn by Lyloff and Lodden, forcing them to fold and winning herself some nice-sized pots. The tan, raven-haired Orth is also quite the fashionista, sporting a Louis Vuitton belt and a Gucci purse, along with dramatic red streaks in her hair.

She's currently sitting on about 18,000 in chips.

Annette Obrestad Eliminated

Annette Obrestad
Annette pops it up to 525 from the cut off and Runar Runarsson makes it 1,500 total from the big blind.
They see a flop of {K-Clubs} {4-Spades}{2-Clubs} and Runar counts out a bet of 1,750 which is swiftly called by Annette. The turn is the {4-Diamonds} and Runar bets 2,750. It takes longer for Annette to call this time but call she does.
The river is the {6-Spades} and after getting a proper look at Annette's stack (roughly 10,000) Runar moves all in. Annette goes into the tank, staring intently at the gap between the board and her opponent, casually playing with the small denomination chips she has left. Eventually she stacks up all her chips and moves them into the middle. Runar flips over his A-K and Annette mucks and is eliminated from the tournament.

Dag Martin Mikkelsen Eliminated

Dag Martin Mikkelsen=Busto
Dag Martin Mikkelsen=Busto
On an {A-Spades}{K-Spades}{K-Diamonds} flop, the action was checked to Dag Martin Mikkelsen, who bet 1,200. His opponent raised to 2,500 and Mikkelsen called. When the {J-Diamonds} fell on the turn, Mikkelsen bet 4,500, his opponent raised to 10,000, Mikkelsen moved all in and was insta-called. Mikkelsen had turned a full house with {K-Clubs}{J-Clubs}, but his opponent flopped it with A-K. The river was a meaningless 4 and Mikkelsen headed to the rail. He'll probably be back to multi-tabling $1,000 SNGs in no time.

Johnny Lodden Eliminated

Though he was having a nice run of it in the first couple of levels, Norway's Johnny Lodden has left the building. Lodden shoved his short stack with A-K and was called by an opponent holding pocket eights. The pair won the race and Lodden hit the rail, much to the dismay of his rather attractive blonde railbirds.
