Heat 9 will begin shortly.

We're uncertain as to the exact line-up just yet as The Devilfish, who was due to play the second heat, wanted to change to the morning heat as it's Valentine's Day. (seriously)

Players Have Taken Their Seats

SEAT 1: Marcel Luske
SEAT 2: Phil Hellmuth
SEAT 3: Vicky Coren
SEAT 4: Eddy Scharf
SEAT 5: Ian Frazer
SEAT 6: Juha Helppi

So Devilfish didn't successfully get his heat changed and could end up breaking some poor girl's heart later.

Reminder of the League Standings

Except for Eddy Scharf, everyone in this field really needs a win. It's possible that at least one player will be mathematically eliminated after this heat.

Hand 3

Phil Hellmuth raises to 4,000 (a minimum raise) with {7-Spades}{7-Clubs} and surprisingly Eddy Scharf gave up his big blind with {A-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}.

Hand 5

Eddy Scrarf
Eddy Scrarf
Eddy Scharf opens on the button to 6,000 with {A-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}. Ian Frazer calls with {K-Spades}{Q-Spades} in the small blind and Juha Hellpi plays {K-Diamonds}{10-Spades} in the big blind.

Flop: {2-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{J-Clubs}

It's checked around to Scharf who bets 10,000 and takes it down.

Hand 7

Eddy Scharf continues his aggressive start, this time raising with {3-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} attacking Hellmuth's big blind and taking it.

Hand 8

Helppi made a minimum raise with {K-Hearts}{Q-Clubs} and Hellmuth called with {A-Hearts}{7-Clubs} in the small blind.

Flop: {8-Clubs}{K-Clubs}{8-Hearts}
Helppi bet 5,000 and Hellmuth called.

Turn: {Q-Diamonds}
Helppi bet 10,000 and won the pot.

Hand 10

Marcel Luske
Marcel Luske
Juha Helppi limps in first position with {4-Diamonds}{4-Spades}, as does Luske with {3-Spades}{3-Hearts} along with Frazer {7-Diamonds}{9-Spades} and Eddy Scharf {K-Spades}{Q-Spades}.

Flop: {7-Hearts}{A-Hearts}{5-Clubs}
Turn: {Q-Diamonds} which hits Scharf and he bets out 6,000. Marcel Luske raises to 21,000 and takes it down.

Hand 13

Hellmuth gets a walk in the big blind and for a change decided to look. (He doesn't like looking when he gets a walk.)

He had {A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}. That's not going to make him feel very good.
