Vranken's Nines no Good

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante
Antoine Vranken
Antoine Vranken

Antoine Vranken raised to 2,500 and Martin Finger called before Hakim Zoufri raised to 5,600. Vranken clicked to 12,200 before Finger got out of the way and then Zoufri squeezed to 25,600. Vranken jammed for less than double of that and got snap-called.

Zoufri: {K-Spades}{K-Diamonds}
Vranken: {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}

The board came {A-Spades}{3-Spades}{2-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{Q-Spades} and that was it for the Dutchman.

Chang Busts Tabak and Aydin

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante
Fatih Aydin
Fatih Aydin

Chin Sin Chang opened to 2,500 and was called by one player before Fatih Aydin jammed his last 15,000 from the button. Erik Tabak also moved all in from the big blind and Chang looked them both up, the cold-caller folded.

Chang: {K-Hearts}{K-Clubs}
Tabak: {A-Spades}{Q-Clubs}
Aydin: {Q-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}

The board ran out {A-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{3-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{J-Clubs} and the set of kings won it all for Chang.

Engel Takes from Hansen

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Herman Hansen previously doubled up his stack through Antoine Vranken and then faced the limp of Ari Engel and the call of the small blind. Hansen raised and just Engel called to see the flop {6-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}. Both players checked before Hansen check-called two bets on the {5-Clubs} turn and {10-Diamonds} river. The final barrel looked to be 7,400 and Engel showed {8-Diamonds}{8-Spades} as winning hand.

O'Dwyer in Many Hands

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

The last table downstairs is mostly being dominated by the action of Steve O'Dwyer. Robert Buky had lost most of his chips earlier and just now doubled with {A-Clubs}{9-Hearts} versus {A-Spades}{7-Clubs} but it is unclear when the last 12,100 chips went in after a board of {6-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{8-Spades}{9-Clubs}{7-Hearts}.

The small setback didn't last long though, because O'Dwyer called down a bluff by Donald Rae to get back up.

Leathem Busts van Zijp

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Danny van Zijp defended his big blind against the raise of Andrew Leathem and then got his stack in after a flop of {4-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{6-Spades}. The {K-Hearts}{10-Hearts} of the Dutchman needed help against Leathem's {2-Spades}{2-Clubs} for bottom set, but the board filled up with the {A-Diamonds} turn and {3-Clubs} river instead.

Hawkins Busts

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante
Keith Hawkins
Keith Hawkins

Another player has hit the rail in Keith Hawkins. The Brit was all in with pocket eights for his stack of 12 big blinds and Floris van der Ven looked him up with the {J-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}. The flop came {J-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} and no running eights appeared anymore to send the Brit to the rail.

Avramidis Scores Big Double

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Arriving on the river of a board {9-Clubs}{3-Spades}{3-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{4-Clubs}, Fatih Aydin had bet what looked like 12,000 and Makarios Avramidis moved all in for 64,000. Aydin tanked for some time and then called to show {K-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}, ending up second best to the {10-Spades}{10-Clubs} of the Greek.

A couple of Quick Updates

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Steve O'Dwyer found the next gear once again to bump up his stack and Raoul Refos four-bet against chip leader Martin Finger to enforce a fold. Anton Wigg is back up to starting stack whereas Jussi Nevanlinna doubled up.

The hijack had opened to 2,200 and Nevanlinna flat-called from the button before an opponent behind him squeezed to 8,200. The initial raiser folded but the Finn moved all in for 27,400 with the {A-Spades}{A-Clubs}. His opponent called with {A-}{J-} and the board {9-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds} was little reason to worry.
