G On Fire

[user46392]
[user46392]
Tony G raised to 2,000, only for Thomas Hammerl to reraise to around 6,000. "Ok," said G as he called, leaving himself only 5,000 or so behind, "There's no way you can win."

Flop: {7-Diamonds} {J-Clubs} {2-Hearts}

Hammerl instantly announced all in, and G called.

Hammerl: {A-Spades} {K-Diamonds}
G: {2-Diamonds} {3-Diamonds}

Turn: {Q-Spades}

River: {Q-Hearts}

Tony G's two pair took the pot, and no second bounty for Hammerl just yet.

Kullenberg Doubles Up

A blind-on-blind cooler has catapulted Simon Kullenberg up to 23,000 and left a woeful Viliyan Petleshkov with mere pocket change.

Kullenberg: {A-Clubs} {Q-Clubs}
Petleshkov: {5-Clubs} {10-Clubs}

Board: {K-Clubs} {6-Clubs} {2-Clubs} {6-Diamonds} {2-Spades}

G Up!

Oh deary me, it's as though Tony G spent this morning making bizarre and extravagant sacrifices to the poker gods.

Tony G: {K-Spades} {2-Spades}
Ralf Steiner: {A-Hearts} {7-Spades}

Mark Vos: "On yer bike, right?"

Board: {4-Clubs} {Q-Clubs} {10-Spades} {9-Hearts} {J-Clubs}

Unbelievable. Tony G is our new chip leader with over 35,000.

Pols Position

[user4144]
[user4144]
On a {6-Spades}{5-Spades}{6-Diamonds} flop, three players saw a 10,000 plus pot after putting 3,000 each in the middle. Button Roberto Siegel refused to make it four and folded for the extra 2,000.

A ragtastic {2-Clubs} turn led to a check, check, bet from Richard Pols who led for 7,000. Steiner called all in for 5,300 from the small blind and the other player folded.

Pols = {6-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}
Steiner = {J-Spades}{5-Clubs}

An academic {2-Hearts} on the river and Steiner was gone. Pols, meanwhile, appears to be challenging for the chip lead, although I was unable to count his stack as he raked in the pot.

Vos Hits the Mark

Jonas Danielsson raised to 2,000 from UTG only for Mark Vos to push all in for circa 15,000 from the button. Danielsson called.

Danielsson = {A-Diamonds}{J-Spades}
Vos = {J-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}

As the river of an {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{10-Clubs} board hit the felt, Daniellsson said a naughty 'f' word, but, even in his anger, was polite enough to abide by the 'English only at the table' rule.

Whilst Vos jumps up to the 30,000 plus mark, Danielsson is down to just 550, and may require some words of wisdom from Mr Miyagi.
