Moving At A More Leisurely Pace

[user76023]

Vicky Coren and Juha Helppi have just started their match. Helppi wanted a little delay as he hadn't eaten since he had come straight from the Poker Million heat across town.

This match will probably be moving a bit slower.

Position The Key...

[user76023]

Veldhuis raises to 775 and Schwartz calls but then folds to the Dutchman's bet on a {A-Diamonds}

flop.

Then Schwartz raises to 800 on the button, Veldhuis calls and then calls another 800 on the {Q-Clubs}

flop, but folds to a 2,200 bet on the {3-Clubs}

turn.

Use The Schwartz Luke!

[user76023]

Luke Schwartz is going for a major comeback, after picking up several pots to boost himself up to 7,700 he's just doubled up again.

Veldhuis: {5-Hearts}

Schwartz:

A board of {6-Clubs}

means 'FullFlush' has bounced all the way back up to 15,400.

Game on...

Schwartz Doubles

[user76023]

Luke Schwartz moved all-in for his last 1,500. Veldhuis quickly called.

Schwartz: {Q-Diamonds}

Veldhuis:

The flop came {K-Hearts}

but Schwartz remained unconvinced, "Bring on the turn!" he said...

The turn was the {Q-Clubs}

and now Veldhuis needed a ten but the river was the {9-Hearts}

instead and Schwartz now has 3,000 to Veldhuis' 37,000.

We're Jammin'

[user76023]

Luke Schwartz raises to 450, Lex Veldhuis reraises to about 1,600 but we found it hard to tell because Schwartz immediately pushed all-in for his 21,000 or so and Veldhuis called even quickler.

Schwartz: {7-Spades}

Veldhuis:

The board came {K-Clubs}

, both players making sets but Veldhuis was holding top set to win.

Schwartz has about 1,500 left which means Veldhuis has about 38,500 but the blinds are still 100/200.

Phoney War

[user76023]

A few raises but nothing major has happened.

A raise to 500 from Veldhuis was called by Schwartz but they checked the {10-Diamonds}

board to the river where Schwartz bet 800 to win.

A couple of hands later and Schwartz raised to 450, which Veldhuis called. Veldhuis led out for 650 on the {K-Clubs}

flop and Schwartz folded.

Another Match About To Start....

[user76023]

Juha Helppi against Vicky Coren is also going to start shortly.

Coren declared in a prematch interview she thought it wouldn't be the fastest match ever.
